HP: What Did Dumbledore Misunderstand?

Albus Dumbledore knows that Tom Riddle is a good boy.

Riddle is very patient with Cicely, the Dumbledores' adopted daughter, even though she's accidentally splashed cold water on him with her shaking hands and sent him to the hospital wing, holding him back.

Drawing on his own experience, Dumbledore comes to a conclusion:

Tom Riddle likes Cicely Dumbledore.

Tom Riddle: "..."

Cicely: "???"

When Tom Riddle's magic goes out of control, he unexpectedly gains the memories of another version of himself's entire life. With those memories, Riddle easily wins everyone's favor. But he remembers that the other version of himself never met a woman from the Dumbledore family...

Cicely transmigrates into Harry Potter, a novel that remains popular around the world even in the mid-21st century. But what's going on with this Riddle, who is adored by Dumbledore and acts suspicious in every way, yet somehow never does anything wrong?

Albus Dumbledore helpfully plays matchmaker. "Tom, would you like to visit Godric's Hollow during the holidays?"

Riddle: "...Can I say no?"

Cicely: "Of course you can :)"

This is a story about two people who can't stand each other, secretly watching and testing one another, and falling into all kinds of misunderstandings.

"Our misunderstandings began with suspicion and ended in trust and love."

Reader's Guide:

1. An original heroine who's mastered the fighting skill tree x a calculating young Tom Riddle with memories that give him a major advantage.

2. The characters will stay in character as much as possible. Happy ending.

3. Other transmigrators appear, but they don't cause trouble.

4. There are tons of worldbuilding details and foreshadowing, so please be patient while the author works through them. The views expressed in the story don't represent the author's views. The author is just a lazy fish.

5. I'm writing for love. My writing isn't very good, so just have fun, hehe.

6. Thanks for reading OvO
