On the first day of the fifth year, five of the tight-knit group of seven—no, eight—gathered in the prefects' carriage. The moment Abby stepped inside, she saw her older sister, Luvia, looking at her with shining eyes. Luvia was a seventh-year Slytherin girl and the Head Girl, while on the boy's side...
Abby's gaze swept across, and sure enough, she spotted Adel looking utterly expressionless.
Tyres and Abby exchanged a tacit glance, then glanced back again, as if waiting for someone. It was hard to tell if the two of them were rubbing off on each other more and more.
Half of this young couple's motivation came from sheer enjoyment of a good show; they just loved watching Leah's knack for talking back to the Sisyphus family—it was super cool.
"Abby! Come here, come here!"
Luvia beckoned to her younger sister with an excited expression.
Abby raised an eyebrow, smiling as she walked over. "We literally came together, Sister. We just saw each other, why are you acting like it's been ages?"
"Hahaha, never mind that. You there, lad, step away."
Luvia said fiercely to Tyres. The sudden shift in her expression left Tyres bewildered, and in the end, he had no choice but to sit at a little distance away, neither too close nor too far.
