Once the instructions were on his paper, he looked up at the Professor when she pronounced the incantation they were suppose to use and he just felt his heart pound against his rib cage. It wasn't just a small incantation he was suppose to recite either; it was a BIG one with lots of his words his mind would like to switch out.
Meh.
He whispered to himself now so nobody else could hear him, "Cahw-ned-sis..." No. "Cwah-dne-sis..." Again, no.
He raised his hand into the air now. "Professor, could you pronounce that one more time?" You know, for the dyslexics in the room... or maybe it was just him. *mellow* It was always just HIM. The odd one out. The black duck in a pond full of white ducks.
Oh, hey. Look at that. It was the kid from the Slytherin house table, the one who'd
demanded she pass him a cupcake. He better be lucky he's of
her kind, because had he not been, she'd have never done what she was about to do...
"Put these two sounds together," she said, turning toward him.
"Shhh" ...
"Aw." ...
"Shaw." Kind of like telling somebody to be quiet and then getting sad and saying
Awwww... "Then add den-sis." Kind of like a living room...and then having a sister.
"Put it all together--Chaw-den-sis. Chaudensis."
So she wasn't the professor, but seeing as the boy was sitting right next to her and she could use the extra practice anyway, Sierra decided to do her good deed for the
year.
