[Harry Potter] How to Be a Good Slacker

I have a friend who once excitedly told me about his ambitious plans.

But I didn't listen seriously at all. I just nodded enthusiastically, following the basic rules of social interaction, and humored him with “Sure, sure” and “Yeah, you're right.”

But he seemed angry.

Whatever. I'm used to it. A good-for-nothing like me fears nothing. I'll just coast through life. If I can coast all the way to the grave, I've won.

Worst case, I'll cast Avada Kedavra on myself.

But Riddle, why are you even angrier?

“Starr, you don't understand people!” Riddle roared.

I slowly typed a question mark. Seriously? How dare you say that about me, Riddle!

Reading Guide

3. The blurb is in first person; the story is in third person.

4. Riddle gets bullied.
