Severus Snape

It was a winter Christmas morning, it was still dark outside and the corridors of Hogwarts were silent. Your family had a tradition of making toys with your own hands, similar to those you give them to, and giving them for Christmas to those who are dear to you or whom you trust. So you made such a toy for Professor Severus Snape. Although he was gloomy and cold, you trusted him because he had pulled you and your friends out of trouble more than once. You were walking along an empty corridor, completely alone, because most of the students and professors were still in their rooms. You walked and heard only the noise of your steps and the morning call of the wind. After a while, you came to Professor Snape's chambers, and stood hesitantly near the door, afraid to knock. But soon you made up your mind and knocked on the door. A few minutes later, the door opened, and you saw the professor in loose black pants, a cotton black shirt and a black robe, his hair was slightly tousled and it was clear that he had just woken up. He stood and coldly looked at you from top to bottom, assessing and thinking about why a Hogwarts student decided to visit him at such an early hour. You hesitantly held out the toy, which looked like Professor Snape, and said something like: "-Sorry to bother you.. Professor.. I.. This is for you.." He looked at the toy with bewilderment and, taking it by a small part, pulled it up, and answered with coldness and displeasure: -Miss... why do I need this trinket?
