New Life

Life is strange. You only understand the value of the things you always had only when you lose them. You plan for your life, you expect to go through them and the plans crumble just like that when you never expect in a way you never thought is possible.

I had like so many other had a few plans of mine. Graduating from university, getting a nice job which pays well, getting to know a girl which makes me happy and which I want to make happy. I was in the my plans going forward with them. I had graduated from Mechanical Engineering, got a nice job which pays acceptable for now.

Then things I have never expected started to happen, the pandemic, econemic crisis, earthquakes, forest fires. I had never expected a pandemic, a thing I have only read from historical study books or internet, to emerge in my lifetime. It was still okay though, I saw that humans can get used to every situation. These are the thoughts I am having in my bed in the hospital I am staying for my medical treatment. I am the one of the last patients of the pandemic, it is mostly göne from the world in the moment. I also thought that it is göne and I have got past throught the pandemic without catching the virus even once, but here I am dying. Even if I am dying it is okay, I had done whatever I can in my power to live, I had a wonderful family and I had a wonderful life with them. It is sad to leave them so early but I believe in them to live a happy life together. Here I am dying in 23 years old, going for my next great adventure.

I woke up in the most comfortable bed I had laid on it was a ceiling that I have no memories of I am seeing above me. I had stood up and looked around. I am in a mostly green colored room. There is a cool, old and valuable looking carpet on the ground. There was a wetness on my face as if I had cried recently. My head is hurting, I am getting confused. It is like I know exactly where I am but I can't point out. My headache is getting unbearable suddenly and I black out. I am having a very realistic dream, like flashing of your life before your eyes like a film strip. But the memories is not mine, they are of a child who I just 15 years old growing in a house without happiness, with a family that neglects their child. The boy meeting the most important person in his life, a light in his life where everywhere else is dark. Dreaming of happiness and peace in a school full of children like him with the most important person with him. Losing his parents, destruction of all his dreams, losing the friendship of the most important person of his life.

I woke after that dream already guessing what is happening. I stood up from the bed which I know now. The bed this body slept for a few years in school now. I approached a full-length mirror in the corner of the room. There it is a image of a scrawny, dark eyed boy with lenghty dark hair and bridged nose. If somebody told me that you will someday woke up as Severus Snape, I would just laugh it off. Here I am in a place most people dreamed of being when they were a child at least once.

I am now Severus Snape. Although it is the most suprising thing happened to me, dying pretty much prepares you for anything. The last memory of this body is of crying to sleep after the last attemp of making Lily forgive himself for calling her mudblood. He has seen how much he hurt her, he has seen the disappointment in her eyes for losing a friend to the most evil group she saw. Feeling desperation for losing her. I hope you are in a good place Severus. I will live your life now. I am sorry it has ended like this but this was also not my choice. I start dressing for the first day of my new life. For all that matters, I am in a wold with magic right now. ACTUAL MAGİC!!!. A world were you can shape reality, a world were people tried a few ways for immortality, a world were some person found a way to prolong his life with philosopher's stone. A world where somebody can be very strong. I am very excited to learn anything about magic. I am now in the body of a potion prodigy. I feel like my thinking prosess is upgraded comparing to my last life. I don't know if it is beacuse of Severus' brain or because I have died and reincarnated, but it is there.

I decided on the spot that I will never have any regrets in this life like the old Severus did and I will be at the top of magic world with my knowledge. I will not be a servant to neither Voldemort, nor Dumbledore!

Your gift is the motivation for my creation. Give me more motivation!
