A ray of sunshine, that was how bright she was these days. Funny how one person could change her entire state of mind in a blink of an eye. Quite unexpectedly, her obviously not a date proposal was a complete success, the letters and her handmade resume went into his pocket instead of the bin. Just one more day, and it will be the most amazing day she will ever experience. Skipped through the hallway, she was humming paper rings whilst remembering the plot twist that happened a couple days back. A white furball dressed in a pastel blue outfit trailed from behind then stopped from time to time when he saw moving objects lurking around the corner ready to be stomped by his paws that were covered by what seemed to be socks. “Lucy, stop bothering the bugs! They are not food!” She sighed, then crouched down to get the fluffy Lucifur. Seven months old, he was so much bigger than that time when he was still in the magical menagerie. They bonded very well, it was good to have something to hug every night and to her luck, a snuggler was in his DNA.

Her plan was just to go back to the Ravenclaw tower and have a beauty sleep, just so she wouldn’t look dead on her special day. She had someone to impress, waking up with dark circles around her eyes would not be a great sight for a first not date. She scratched Lucifur’s head, soft purr being the only music to her ears. From the side of her eye, a figure stood somewhere in the courtyard (i was assuming near the wall but correct me if i’m wrong). No, not just a figure, he was pale as a sheet. One could mistake him for a mannequin. Usually she wouldn’t bother to intervene in the conversation he might be having with himself, sometimes people just like to be alone and there’s nothing wrong with that. The thing she could relate to for eternity.

Nonchalantly, she almost walked past him. Something stopped her leg from moving, perhaps it was the hint of anxiousness, or worry, she didn’t know. Maybe it was just his regular expression, it would be rude to judge. But one question wouldn’t hurt anyone. Aurora turned around and approached the sad looking boy. “Y-you’re pale, did you see a ghost or are you hungry?” Lucifur on the other hand would look at the boy with the most innocent look, he didn’t give a damn about anything in the world.

The boy’s response was a bit worrying. Sure, he said he was fine, but is anyone really fine when they said they are fine? No. Aurora knew better than that. Especially after seeing how weird he was acting. “You don’t seem okay, why don’t you sit down right here” She flopped on the ground and frantically opened her pink duffle bag. Lucifur jumped out of her hug as soon as she searched for whatever thing she was looking for, living his best life catching a butterfly. “maybe I have something inside this bag-” This girl really needs to sort her things out rather than just put it inside a bag whose strap tried so hard to stay intact. She kept searching, both hands dived into the abyss hoping to reach something useful as she pulled out one object after another. It was messy, the boy definitely could see some pristine school book, clearly never felt a touch of a human finger, a inhaler, some chocolate bars inside their wrappers, and papers, and more papers, and more papers that only God knew what they contained. “-sorry, too much stuff” Her bag was the equivalent of doraemon’s pocket. The difference was that she couldn’t pull out the ‘anywhere door’. Quite unfortunate. It would be a beneficial commodity to have especially in dire situations. Late to class? Trapped in the forbidden forest surrounded by monsters? Running away from your crush because of awkward moments that you caused? The ‘anywhere door’ will be ready to provide a quick exit. But first, she had a more important mission to do.

“I swear I have this oil thingy my mum always shoved in my nose whenever I felt nauseous” She rambled as her hands did the same thing for the past couple of minutes, “well, not actually putting it inside my nose, but just to smell it. She said it has a healing property or whatever” Then, the moment everyone probably had been waiting for “Found it!” After throwing most of her stuff on the ground, A small clear green plastic bottle was in her hand, finally. It has some Chinese words that the Ravenclaw probably did not understand as well as the other language and English translation. Cajeput oil from the cajeput tree. A must have item in Indonesian households. Though her knowledge regarding her probably less than a quarter heritage was limited, her mother still tried her best to sprinkle it on the girl, including putting the oil all over her to get rid of all diseases. Aurora opened the cap, the eucalyptus hint aroma spread across the courtyard. It was clear as crystal that there were several cat furs sticking on the cap. “You can smell it, rub it on your tummy, or drink it, I guess?” It is most likely safe to take a sip of the oil. Maybe? Maybe.

Yeah, no poop sherlock! What did he expect? Sweet taste like tea with a drip of honey? What she meant by drinking was not a big gulp but just a little drop on the edge of the tongue. Aurora was a peculiar kid but this boy was something else. Maybe his sickness caused something to his brain, amnesia, delirium, or whatever the appropriate medical term that caused him to be a little… dim witted? Of course she didn’t say that to his face, instead she just smiled with both eyes a little squinted. “Y-yeah it does” As it may be, there could be an experiment that made it scientifically proven that drinking cajuput oil was in fact great for the body. That was something that the girl didn’t know existed or did not exist, but at that point she just didn’t want to get sued for malpractice. She could blame it on him, but she was the cajuput oil dealer. It wouldn’t be a good headline either, a Ravenclaw student poisoned a Hufflepuff with a cajeput oil. Out of the poisons in the world, cajeput oil sounded less fancy.

Back to the reality where Aurora had no intention to harm anyone with the minty oil and Lucifur was still minding his own business, tried to catch the butterflies. Enough with the fabricated smile, it wouldn’t teach the boy a lesson. If she continued to let him drink the whole bottle, the lawsuit would be knocking on her door soon. “Don’t do that again” Taking care of someone was a hefty job, she couldn’t even take care of herself properly. Then something rang a bell. There was another way to cure, yes, with the same oil. All the girl needed was one thing “Do you have money? A galleon? A sickle? A knut? Muggle coin? Whatever works” If the boy had it in his possession and was willing to give it, she’d take it. If not, she would dig her bag again and search for that penny. Once acquired, it was time for the traditional medical treatment that had little to zero prove to be effective. “Okay now take off your shirt”

Aurora, the oil dealer. She hoped it wouldn’t be her next nickname of the year. “O-oh no no! That oil is free, I’ll return the money once it’s done” Little did the poor boy know, her intention was not to see a little bit more of his exposed skin. She knew a method called ‘kerok’. If translated to English, it would sound a little bizarre. Coin rubbing. Long story short, some believed that when one uses cajeput oil on someone’s back and rubbed it with a little pressure with a coin, their sickness would go away especially when their skin is painted with red marks afterwards which is a normal skin response against that kind of method. Her mother liked to do it on her when she wasn’t feeling exceptionally well, Aurora only agreed because it felt like a massage. Was it effective to get rid of the common cold? Not really. But if someone believed hard enough, it would be a good medication alternative, maybe.

His reaction was something that the girl didn’t expect. The kind of response where someone was taken aback by something, or perhaps terrified. And Aurora was perplexed. She genuinely thought that he was offended because she asked for a coin, but the previous explanation should clear the miscommunication already. The fault was on her for not explaining the traditional coin rubbing situation to the boy. She had forgotten. So she would ask again, “What are you waiting for? Take it off”

At this point she noticed that the boy was either feeling cold or embarrassed. Taking your clothes off in the middle of the courtyard could feel pressuring, especially when someone told you to do it without context. So she’d finally explain, “Oh! Right! That was very out of context” Poor boy was holding onto his shirt like it was his saviour. If only Aurora made it clear beforehand, he would be more comfortable with the coin rubbing medication she was about to do.

“So, there is a method, not approved scientifically but is approved according to my dear mother, if you rub that oil thing onto your back or chest or wherever, then scrape your skin with this coin right here, it’ll make you feel better!” In all honesty, was it a cultural thing or just her mother making up stuff, it would remain a mystery. Her mother was high on folklore tales and myths. One instance would be ‘if you don’t sweep the floor squeaky clean, your future partner will have thick beard’ and look at her step father. He looked like a brunette Santa sometimes. Then she continued, “The redder your skin gets, the better. Oh, and it shouldn’t hurt, of course.” The logic behind ‘the redder the better’ couldn’t fit the puzzle in her brain. If one rubs their skin, no doubt it’ll be red. But at the end of the day, she was just quoting what she heard.

She looked at the boy whilst still holding the sickle. “Soooo… is it alright? If no, you can put on your shirt back and… do it yourself?”
