"Niat baik tidak selalu dapat diterima dengan baik"
Kadang yang menjatuhkan kita bukanlah orang lain melainkan orang terdekat; yang paling dekat. Kalimat penghakiman, penilaian yang merendahkan, dipandang sebelah mata dan sekelumit cercaan yang entah kenapa ketika ia yang melakukan rasa sakitnya jadi bertubi-tubi.
Duhai lisan. Semoga tidak ada kalimat yang akan kau sesali di kemudian, yang menggoreskan luka di hati paling dalam, hati mereka; orang yang kau sayangi.
Jalan Pulang, 14.24 | 13 Desember 2023.

PM - 184 - August 31 - Protection
@prongsfoot-microfic
Lily's response to James' offer of protection is a harsh refusal, at least Sirius is there to support him.

“I don’t need your protection,” Evans yells.
She’s got that furious look in her eyes that Sirius has come to loathe over the years. Partially because it’s almost always aimed at James rather than at Snape or someone that deserves it, but also because it feels deeply unfair. Given that he and James both do their best to defend and protect all muggleborns, Evans acting like she’s special or too good for it bothers him.
He's especially bothered when James looks like he’d been slapped because she doesn’t stop with ‘not needing his protection’, she goes on to really hit him where it hurts, mocking him in ways that suggest that he’s no better than wannabe death eaters.
Sirius could see James barely struggling to hide the pain her words cause, and knowing that he wouldn’t want the likes of the wannabes all around them to see him fall, he says, “You know what, Evans? You’re right, you clearly don’t need James, so why don’t you run along after your wannabe death eater friend and leave us alone.”
He doesn’t wait for a response as he leads James away to a safe space away form prying eyes. Once they’re alone, Sirius pulls him into a hug.
“You alright?”
James sighs. “I just want to help.”
“I know, but she’s made her point clear – she doesn’t want your protection.”
“Given her associations, she needs the protection the most.”
Sirius shrugs. “Well, she’ll have to deal with that when the times comes. But for us…”
“… we’ll – I – will back off.”
“At least you’ve got me.”
James grins. “And I’m so glad to have you.”
“Good.”
