“It's not fair.” Evelyn complained of holding back the upset. “You even cursed me first.”
“I remind you, Lyn. If everything that is taught to me is indeed nothing fair.” Sean grinned. “If our results are the same, but you still lose. Remember our promise.”
Harry and Draco walked out of the principal's room and found his son and daughter staring at each other in annoyance.
Harry approached his daughter. “Evelyn, can you explain what really happened.” the girl turned her head and nodded before looking at Sean sharply. Evelyn walked in her father's footsteps to get away from Malfoy and junior Malfoy.
Draco also did the same with Harry, the difference is that the man looks arrogant as if he does not care if his son is also guilty. “You okay, Son?” Sean nodded. “Dad proud of you.”
Sean raised his eyebrows. “Dad not angry with me?” Draco shakes.
“You only defend yourself don't you?”
Sean tilted his head and then nodded. “Do you know your punishment?” Sean sighed making his father feel guilty. “Sorry, Son. But, principal Mcgonagall says you should stay at Hogwarts during the Christmas holidays.”
Sean widened his eyes. “What?” Exasperated by the situation, Sean has devised many plans with Scorpius over the Christmas holidays. “But, this is not fair. We just duel like the-“
Draco nodded. “Dad knows, it's just that the principal still insists.”
On the other hand, Harry did not rebuke his daughter. She was grateful that her youngest daughter looked healthy without the slightest injury. The two were sitting in a hogwarts garden. Seemed quiet and calm.
“So, was it true that the principal said about you casting a curse spell?” Harry looked at his son who was nodding. He could see the guilty look in his daughter's eyes.
Harry took his breath. “Didn't tell you, that it can't.” Evelyn nodded.
“I know, I'm sorry.” Said. “it just happened.”
Harry nodded while hugging his daughter. “Do you know your punishment?” Evelyn remained silent. “You should stay in hogwarts during christmas holiday, dear.”
Evelyn hurriedly unraveled her embrace and looked at her father with a surprised look. “Dad must be kidding.”
Harry shook. “Unfortunately not.” He could see Evelyn's eyes start to glaze over. “The head of the school said that it was the punishment of you two.”
Evelyn grunting. “Good, I'll be stuck together with that Malfoy.”
Harry smiled. “At least you need to reflect on your thoughts about what you are doing.”
Evelyn nodded. “I will definitely miss you guys.” Evelyn was silent for a moment and looked at her father. “Dad, don't let uncle Ron know about this.” he said shrinking the sound.
Harry smiled. “Quiet only.”
Unfortunately the next day, Evelyn's plea was not granted when Ginny got a daily delivery
the new prophet. The woman who was cooking was willing to stop her activities while reading some headlines featuring photos of Evelyn and Malfoy's son.
“Harry!” Ginny yells.
Albus and James were shocked when they heard his mother yelling at his father. The two men immediately went downstairs and looked at his mother who was sculpting while holding a daily Prophet.
“What's up, Mum?” James opened his voice. The woman did not answer and pointed her daily prophet to the firstborn.
James accepted it by raising an eyebrow. A moment of puzzled expression turned into a surprised look. “Princess Potter and son Malfoy attack each other while in class. The two teenagers did not hesitate to throw an unforgivable curse.” It was his reading that led Albus to immediately snatch the paper from James' hands.
Albus shook his head. “Why Mum didn't tell me.” It was the excitement that made Ginny sigh.
“Because Mum knew you'd curse Malfoy's youngest if you went there.” Ginny returned to the kitchen and continued her cooking. “Give it to your father.”
Albus was still following his mother from behind. “So, what happened?”
Ginny twisted her body and looked at her second child in surprise. “We yesterday got a letter from hogwarts if Evelyn and the youngest Malfoy get punished because they did something dangerous.”
Harry who had just finished his bath walked towards Ginny with an astonished look. “What's up?”
Ginny simply shook her head and continued with her cooking while Albus looked at his father flatly before giving Harry the daily Prophet.
Harry was silent for a moment before widening his eyes. “I don't think Evelyn's request will come true, there's even no point in me keeping my mouth shut if Ron finds out from the daily prophet.”

“Good day, Hagrid.”
Hagrid looked up and smiled. “Good day, Mr. Grissham.” Then look back at the daily Prophet seriously.
Sandy smiled at her magical animal maintenance teacher. “Tak as usual you look serious.” Hagrid nodded.
“It's really messed up, you know.”
Sandy raised her eyebrows looking at Hagrid in surprise. “What's up?”
Hagrid did not answer and pointed out the specific part where Malfoy and Potter were talking about. “I think some kids purposely photographed them and sold this news.”
Sandy nodded in concern. “I really didn't expect if the news about them was real.”
Hagrid smiled meaningfully. “It looks like the prefects will be busy soon, Grissham.”
Sandy nodded. “Of course, surely the principal will have the entire prefect find out who is the mastermind behind this news.”

The large hall was filled with students who were filling their stomachs. The gazes of several children were fixed on Evelyn and Sean. Irene, Bianca, and Xanders were concerned looking at their friend who was not interested in touching his food.
“I didn't expect the news to spread so quickly.” Irene opened her voice looking at her friend doubtfully.
Bianca rolled her eyes and glanced at Slytherin's table, which was filled with snake children. “If there is no law, I want to condemn the culprit.”
Several pairs of eyes stared at them with curious gazes, including two Ravenclaw disciples who suddenly walked up to their table.
The man smiled faintly looking at Irene. “Hai, babe.”
Irene nodded and patted the chair next to her. Sandy sits next to her while a girl who is none other than Wendy gives Evelyn a daily Prophet.
Wendy looked at him worriedly, “Are you okay, Lyn?”
Evelyn nodded. “As you can see.” The girl received a daily prophet paper thread, caught a glimpse of it before throwing it on the table. “Sit, Wen.”
Wendy nodded and took a seat next to Sandy. Irene's lover smiled with concern. “I think your news is just bullshit, Lyn.” Sandy looked at Evelyn seriously, “But, it seems that after this the prefects will work hard to find the culprit.”
Bianca raised her eyebrows. “You sure? Of course the author is Alma Skeeter.”
Wendy shakes. “Not, the perpetrator who sold this news to Alma Skeeter.”
Evelyn groaned and covered her face. “I lost.” The five witches looked at Evelyn in surprise. “What should I do?”
“Lose?” Wendy looked at Evelyn with a strange look. “What do you mean, Lyn?”
Evelyn let out her breath. “Yesterday before the duel, Sean said if I lose. I have to want to accompany him for a walk-“
“Good.” Irene said excitedly. “I'm sure Malfoy likes you.”
“Irene!”
“Honey!” Irene got a reprimand from her three friends and also her lover. Sandy looked at Evelyn. “Then, how did it go?”
“The result is a series but he does not want and still considers me to lose.” It was obvious that Bianca was sighing.
“Slytherin as always.” Wendy and Bianca at the same time.
“I understand that.” Wendy's voice is calming. Bianca widened her eyes looking at Wendy fiercely.
“Of course you understand that, Wen. Your lover is also one of them.”
Wendy grimaced at Bianca's words. Xanders who had been silent all of a sudden asked Evelyn. “So, you approve it?”
“Do it!”
“Irene!” exclamation fifth.
