Mother attended a top magic school there by the name of the Salem Witches' Institute while Father attended the Salem School of Sorcery. They were one of the top students in their respective schools. The thing is, my parents are not only book smart but they have worldly knowledge and good instincts. I think muggles call it street smarts."
Sam sighed and continued on. "They're confident people and I am a shy person."
"Oh. That's good then. At least you did your part as their friend." Did she feel any better though? And time? Yeah, maybe they needed a lot of time to cool down, knowing that that the sisters decided to smack each other's faces. Ethan would have suggested Samantha to keep her eyes on the siblings so they won't cause more point deduction. But then, he had to bite his tongue to prevent himself from doing so. Technically the friendly race towards the House Cup was on-going, and he will note dare share his tactics with an 'enemy'.
Then they were now in the subject of parents. Ethan had to facepalm himself mentally for bringing it up.
By the looks of it, it seems that Samantha came from a Pureblood family in America.
"That's interesting." he said as he stuffed his hands inside his pockets.
"Attending a different school from your parents should alleviate some of the pressure." But that's not the real issue here, yeah?
"Do they expect high marks from you? Or...did you impose such standards on your own accord?" There's a big difference.
