Library struggle
Iris sat in the library, in a silent corner with her face buried in a Charms book. She was silently practicing spells by herself, muttering words and incantations so that she could try to learn some tougher things. She hated spells and much more enjoyed learning histories and researching, she wished that would help her with the actual casting of spells. It didn't.
She sighed loudly and loudly, maybe a little too loudly put down her spell book and her wand.
"Why do the spells have to be so hard!?!" She growled to herself. It was mostly meant for herself and unless someone was close by they probably couldn't hear.
She took a deep breath and adjusted her hair. She took out her twin buns and redid them as she stared blankly down at her book.
She felt lost and overwhelmed with the need to prove herself to her family. Her family was full of many pure blood, expert wizards and witches, yet, so far, she couldn't seem to live up to those expectations. She didn't know what to do.
She rubbed her eyes annoyed and frustrated.
'Why me? Why does this have to be so hard?' She thought to herself as she finished putting up her hair.

Iris looked up suddenly seeing the girl. She was shocked for a second to see this girl she hadn't expected anyone else to hear or see her struggling.
When the girl asked her if she was struggling with a spell she sighed and nodded. She felt ashamed. She had spent so much time carefully on each spell that she had learned so far but why was this one different? She didn't know but it troubled her.
Iris didn't answer for a long moment. She sat there and blinked. Does she tell this girl she doesn't even know that she's struggling with something she's usually good at?
She took a deep breath then finally spoke.
"Yeah... I'm struggling with a spell. Which is frustrating because I'm usually great at spell casting in general." She admitted hoping the girl would show some sympathy.
She paused for another long moment before speaking again. Right before she spoke she put down her charms textbook to reveal the "Green sparks charm" page open on her book.
"I'm frustrated because I can cast the red sparks charm just fine but for some reason I'm struggling with Green sparks." She said with a loud huff and ran a hand through her bangs.

Iris let out a long sigh. She listened to the girl speak about the spell. She was glad that she was speaking to a second-year who already knew the spell. But her use of the word 'Easy' made Iris cringe slightly. Was the spell really easy? Then why was she struggling.
She sighed again and put her head in her hands while she was still holding her wand in her hand.
"Well I don't know." She started to say with a bit defeat in her voice. "If the spell is easy maybe that's why I'm struggling? I've also been practicing spells for quite some time so maybe I'm just tired and unfocused." She confessed almost hesitantly. Then she looked at the second-year.
Was this girl going to make fun of her? Would she think it was funny that the girl was struggling with such a simple spell? Iris didn't know. She didn't meet this girl until now. Her thoughts then lingered to her parents, the expectations of her family, and all of the stress that came with that. If this spell was really an easy spell then she NEEDED to learn it. She couldn't go home and tell her parents that she didn't even know how to cast an EASY spell.
"Can you... Uh... Help me...?" She asked hesitantly. She hoped that the girl would say yes.
She hoped that the girl wouldn't think she was stupid or lame for not knowing the spell. She wasn't normally one to do for help but it was better than going home and telling her parents she didn't know this simple spell.
