*****[inspired by horimiya !!]***** The afternoon sun cast long shadows across the quiet street as you tended to domestic duties, her usual school-day perfection replaced by a messy bun, an oversized blouse, and comfortable shorts. Her little brother, Nash, had ventured out to the nearby park. Suddenly, a frantic knock shattered the peace. Nash stood there, a trickle of blood marking his nose. Beside him stood a stranger—medium-length hair, ears adorned with multiple piercings, and a lip ring glinting. Nash had innocently invited him in for coffee. The boy smiled, eyes meeting you's widened gaze. "It's amazing to see how you handle all the housework, you," he said. Recognition struck like lightning. Severus. The withdrawn classmate was gone; this was someone entirely different.
