Don't Be Discouraged!
***********
Lilian got up from her seat, and decided that she should be going to the market to get some food. Harry told her that the
money would be on the counter, so she took the whole 50 pounds. 'Wow.' She thought, '50 pounds.' Her hand trembled as she
looked at the pound note. Lilian did all of the cooking, for her and Harry didn't have a sepreate cook, and every week Harry
would only give her about 35 pounds. So this was the most money she ever held in her life. She took a deep breath, and put
the money into her pocket book, put on a small cranberry coloured hat to match her outfit, and took out her white umbrella.
It was sunny out today, and she didn't want to ruin her perfect creamy skin.
She walked a whole two blocks to get to the market place. Like usual, it was crowded. On her left was a merchant selling an
asortment of vegetables, and to her right, a merchant selling fruit under a canopy. Even though she went to this very same
market place week after week, she always loved seeing all of the different foods and trinkets people were selling. It was as
if she was part of a totally different culture. There were people selling beans, merchants selling grains, one selling just
potatos, another just selling tomatos, then some wine merchants- one stand for red, another for white. She had picked up a
little bit of everything, and got a little more of a few things than she normaly would- after all, she had a whole 50 pounds
with her.
After she was done, she still have 10 pounds left. She thought for a second, and almost left, deciding to give the 10 pounds
back to Harry, but she smiled and turned against the thought. Her eyes drifted over to a table with all sorts of tiny
trinkets- they almost looked magical. She walked over to the table, purcheses (the food) in her hands, and looked about. Then
the merchant man spoke.
"What does a lovley lady like yourself doing out here all alone?" He had a misty voice, speaking just above a whisper.
Lilian blinked. "I'm getting food, what does it look like I'm going?" She huffed, and was going to turn away, but something
caught her eye.
The merchant man saw her look at the small item, and smiled. "Ah," he said as he picked up the trinket. "Did this catch your
eye? It does for most people."
It was a very small sand dial for telling time on a silver chain. Even though Lilian *knew* people didn't use it, and it was
only a little trinket, it looked very old. It had a simple beauty aura around it, and something inside Lilian not to buy
it, but something else in her told her to. "How much is it?" She asked.
The merchant's eyes twinkled. "For you, 5 pounds." Lilian smiled, and handed the merchant 5 pounds.
Lilian smiled happily and she wrung the necklace around her neck. The very moment that the charm touchd her neck, she saw
a green flash of light. But it went as fast as it came. She figured it must of been staying out in the sun too long, and that
she should head back home.
What she didn't see was that four people clad in rather strange cloaks surrounded the merchant, telling him that he shouldn't
be selling bewitched items to muggles...
**********
James' job turned out to be a fluke. (A/N- Is that a word?) James had expected it to have a robery or a kidnap or a fire. But
no, a cat had gotten stuck up in the tree.
James left the scene grumbling. "Yes, this'll make head lines 'Stupid prat shuvs cat in tree'. Please." He sighed, took off
his hat and ran his hand through his hair. Today was just a delightful day. He looked around and saw a coffee shop, an
antique store, a market place and a shop he hadn't noticed before. He rammed his hat on his head, and decided to check it
out. Even though it looked kind of dumpy, there was no harm in looking.
When James got in the small store, he was supprised. The inside was very lavish and looked expensive. He smiled to himself
as he looked amungst the different sort of charms, pins and whatnot. He didn't even know why- it looked like jewlery for
women. Then he saw one of thoes little sand dial things that people in the old age used to tell time with. But there was
something about it that he couldn't place his finger on it. It almost looked... he chuckled to him self. It almost looked
magical. He was about to pick it up when a voice distrubed him.
"Ah, your eye caught that one, didn't it?" An elderly gentalmen was behind the counter.
James smiled. "Yes, it did. How much is it?"
The gentalmen's eyes twinkled. "For you, 5 quid (sp?)." James smiled, and handed the old man the money.
"Thank you, sir." James said, and turned to leave the store.
"No, thank you." The old man said as James opened the door.
James smiled contently as he jammed the trinket thing into his pocket. He saw a green flash of light, but ignored it.
He should of stayed a bit longer... six blokes in rather odd clothing apeared around the shop, shouting at the old man that
he should stop this game of selling bewitched items to muggles.
************
Ya, I'm sorry that Lily's experience was the same as James'... but I have a horrible headache and my twin's making me
write... that's right. My twin forces me to write. Ah, well. I promise... well, more like hope the next chapter will be more
interesting. : )
