”Did you threatened him too?” Colin asked excitedly.

”Yes.”

”You shouldn't have. Who knows what will he do next.” Ginny said worriedly.

”I don't care, Ginny. I do what I feel right. I can't work according to others.” She said and flopped down on an armchair.

Ginny and Colin sat on her either sides.

”I wish, I was there. I could have taken a lot of pictures.” Colin said sadly.

”So? What happened in the class after I left?” Chris asked.

”Nothing much. We practiced a little. Then you didn't come back for a long time, so Professor Lupin was worried,” Colin answered.

”So was a Slytherin boy,” Ginny said.

”A Slytherin boy?” Chris asked surprised.

”Yeah. Don't know why, but he asked Professor Lupin if he can go and check?” Ginny answered.

”But Professor Lupin asked us not to worry.  He'll wait and then he dismissed the class.” Colin finished.

”Wait — It can't be Jason?” Chris said loudly. ”Jason?” Ginny and Colin said together.

”Did I say that aloud?” Chris asked.

”Yes. Now tell me who's this Jason?” Ginny said giggling.

”Oh! Nothing much to say. He is a Slytherin boy, and once I stole a recipe from his potion notebook last year.” Chris answered coolly. ”What?”

”Why?”

”Not so important. Relax. Let's go for dinner. I'm starving.” Chris said and got up.

At Great Hall, they entered and Hagrid approached them.

”Chris!” He called and Chris stopped.

”Yes. Hagrid — er — Professor?”

”O! Don'. I'll nev'r forgo'. You sav'd me today. I don' know what would've happen'd if somet'hing had happen'd to Malfoy. Thank you.”

”It's alright Hagrid. I did that for myself.” Chris smiled. ”I'm planning to take Care of Magical Creatures next year. And don't want to learn it from anyone else. You're a great animal lover Hagrid. You'll be natural in this job. Don't let this kind of small things drag you down.”

Hagrid smiled confidently and nodded.

They moved on to the Gryffindor table.

”How do you know the perfect thing to say every time?” Ginny asked sitting beside her.

”I don't know. It's just... I feel life is very short, so I want to make a difference in people's lives as much as I can.” Chris answered while filling her plate with roasted chickens.

”That's so thoughtful of you Chris. I believe that too.” Luna said sitting opposite to them, besides Colin. ”Everyone is here for a reason. Your reason is so honourable. I'll add it with my search of Crumpled Horn Snorkack.”

”Yeah. I was about to ask, any luck finding them?” Chris asked.

”No. Still not. But we discovered many new things. Oh, wait. I made something for you two.” Luna searched her bag and took out two necklaces made of butterbeer corks. ”I made these for you both.”

Chris had noticed them before, Luna usually wore a butterbeer necklace and cherish handmade earrings. She always liked to wear unique things. Specially self-made things. Chris and Ginny both took the necklace. Chris put it on with a smile and Ginny said she'll wear it later.
