"When I was going to Hogwarts, they didn't bring me to the platform or anything, my mother was shopping in Milan and sent packages as sorry gifts, my father was too wrapped up in work and couldn't leave, my stepfather was in the middle of a legal case he couldn't step away from... so Mixie, my house elf, sent me here..." Selena said sadly. "You're lucky you have parents that care," Selena smiled, "my parents never notice when I'm gone..."
Sophrina was shocked to hear this from Selena. What parent wouldn't care about their child? This made her angry, every parent should care about their kid. "..." She was speechless. Sophie remembered how her parents would always wake her up in the morning with a smile on their faces and the way they told her they loved her. "Don't worry, one day they'll realize what an amazing daughter they have." Sophie smiled at her.

Alice could feel a tear slipping over, but quickly brushed it off. She didn't like anyone to see her cry.
Sophrina gasped. "I'm so sorry." She could feel tears in her eyes too.
Alice is a strong person. She thought. If it was her, Sophie would be a mess without them. She couldn't help it and ran over to Alice and gave her a hug.
