It's finally DADA time. The clock felt like it was moving backwards all day, and it would never be this time. I run into class, and I'm just in time. "Alright, today we're going to be getting rid of a boggart. Who would like to go first? Neville?" The next few minutes are hilarious- I get to see Snape in a dress. But then it's my turn. I have no idea what I'm afraid of... I pull out my wand and stare at Professor Lupin. He smiles. It feels like I'm standing there for hours, until it finally turns into something truly terrifying- myself as a werewolf. Everyone except me screams. "RIDDIKULUS!!!" I yell, and the beast becomes a puppy. I smirk and high-five my way to the back. After Harry's turn he dismisses us, and I'm the last person to trudge out of the room.
We head to lunch and everyone is talking. I just sit in the corner and eat silently, thinking to myself. Why had he smiled at me? Was I really his daughter? Had he known I was born, if he was?
