“I hated it there. Cedric was a different person entirely—dark, dangerous. My dad—doing anything they wanted him to. And me? I discovered another Scorpius, you know? Entitled, angry, mean—people were frightened of me. It feels like we were all tested and we all—failed.”

“And I wish I could tell my dad—well, I’m not sure what. I think I’d like to tell him that I’m occasionally capable of more bravery than he might think I am.”

will come again. be honest to those you love, show your pain. to suffer is as human as to breathe.”
