It was honestly very amusing to watch. "And I'm not short on galleons either, so that's not going to work on me." Instead, she removed her wand from its arm holster, and pointed it at his practically damp-from-highlighter-ink page, and whispered "Tergeo", watching as the luminescent ink was siphoned off from the page, leaving it clean and dry once more.
Now that his problem with the highlighted pages was fixed, she assumed that he would start to mind his own business. Not that she didn't mind the company of course - but it was mildly insulting to be offered money - as if she looked like she needed it.
But alas!
"Yes, I did." She replied with a sigh. What was up with this boy? Was staying in the library a crime?, "You would know, that the library is long trek from where we're from." Honestly, she spent a the good part of an hour climbing up to the fourth floor - and she was not about to repeat the process just because she didn't fee like studying anymore.
At his next set of questions, Serena turned to him in astonishment. This was starting to feel like an inquisition rather than a 'Hi, my name is blank, may I share your library table with you' kind of conversation!
"I'm originally from New York." She answered, a hint of a smile on her face, remembering the bustling city where wizards and muggles live side by side (without the muggles knowing of course). "But my mum and I moved to Brighton just last summer." She then turned to him and returned the question "What about you?"
She then shook her head and grinned "Fortunately, I'm an only child." No other siblings to compete with and what not. "And you? I'm assuming you don't have siblings here in Hogwarts either. " If he did, he'd probably be annoying them instead of her.
When Serena refused his money, Minjae leaned away from her and let out a scoff.
"No one ever accepts my offers" he said with a sigh before he picked up a pen to twirl it around with his fingers when he watched as the slytherin took out her wand. Watching curiously, Minjae watched as she pointed it at his textbook and began siphon up the ink colored textbook.
"Hey hey HEY!" he shouted , forgetting he was in the library as he made a wild grab to get his textbook away from her but it was too late, all the color was gone and it looked like any other textbook now.
"What you do that for!? you can't just siphon up the ink from someone's textbook!" No matter how messy it looked.
The look of astonishment was returned with a confused look of himself. Had he said something weird again? Wasn't it normal to ask questions? What else was he supposed to do at a library? Homework? Pffft.
So she was born in New York? It was interesting how a lot of students didn't even seem to be from England or nearby.
"I'd love to visit New York one day" he said .
"I've never been anywhere in America. How old were you when you moved?" He did notice her comment of her mum and herself moving to Brighton and he figured her parents were either divorced or her father had passed away but either way, they didn't know each other well enough for him to ask right now.
"I'm from Gangnam but i moved near Windsor when i turned nine" he said with a small smile on his face as he remembered the fiasco of that year. His parents, both being muggles and knew nothing about the magical world, thought that Minjae was seriously ill when he started showing signs of magic. Long story short they came to England in the hopes of finding out what was wrong with him from the best specialists until a professor visited them to tell them about Hogwarts.
He personally wouldn't say it was fortunate being the only child because she would miss out on so much stuff and no matter how much he disliked his little brother and called him a 'nightmare' he still had fond memories of them playing together and he would literally protect him with his life.
His brother was still a brat though.
"You are correct" he said with a nod.
"I do have a little brother but he will start at Hogwarts after i graduate next year" next year.....
Maybe he should study if he wanted to pass his NEWTS...
