Always Last Priority
It was her first year at Hogwarts but, her fifth year attending a school for magic. Her mother's job had uprooted her from her previous school of Beauxbatons.
Her mother worked for an international magical affaires cooperation ministry and Colombe had suffered several other uproots similar to this. Every time it was exactly the same. "This is the last time, I promise." Her mother said to her, hanging with who Colombe thought to be another of her mother's 'VERY IMPORTANT' co-workers. Colombe didn't answer her mother. Instead, she continued gazing out of her window, a blank, unreadable expression etched on her face.
She hated that her mom always had to work; it was all her father's fault. Her mom got pregnant with her when she was only a teenager. Colombe's father, being the irresponsible creep he was left three days before she was born. Since then her mother had worked to really hard to give her a future. But, somehow along the way she forgot to show Colombe one thing… that she really did lover her.
Colombe would have given anything to have had a mother just like every other kid had right now. The loss of her father hadn't really hurt her, he was never in her life but, before her mother became what she was today she true spirit and never hesitated to take time out of her schedule just for Colombe.
"RING, RING!" Her mother's cell phone rang, gaining Colombe's attention.
"Hello?" Colombe heard her mother answer. "Oh! Minister!" she said in a mix of surprise and excitement. Colombe, impassive to the conversation, turned back to her window and the world outside she longed to understand. Her mother's job tended to keep her sheltered. Everywhere she went she was escorted by a wizard chaperon, stopping her from having a normal fun filled childhood and forcing her to mature much quicker. She longed for a freedom she thought she'd never have and to have the friends she'd always wished for.
As the limo that she and her mother were riding in came to a stop at the King's Cross train station, her mother just finished with the minister and hung up.
"Look Hun," her mother started.
"Here we go again." Colombe thought too use to this to be disappointed.
"Something's come up and it's really urgent so, I won't be able to see you off. I'm really sorry." Her mother finished.
"Don't worry mom, I'll be alright," Colombe said plastering a fake smile on her face. "I'm sure I can find my way." She finished aloud. "In a confusing train station, in a FOREIGN COUNTRY!" she finished shouting in her head.
The chauffer wasted no time in grabbing her trunk from the back of the car and bringing it over, sitting it easily beside Colombe before getting back in the limo.
"Byes Hun, thanks for understanding and have fun at school!" her mother called out to her from the window of the limo as it drove away leaving Colombe standing alone in the train station parking lot.
"Love you too mom." She mumbled looking after the limo before turning and dragging her trunk towards the station doors.
