Chapter 2

Dear Erimentha,

I have reason to believe that you and I are sisters. My mothers name is also Anne Granger. She and my dad are both dentists. My mum said you were sent to America to attend Salem Academy of Witchcraft. You also live with Aunt Nolcha and Uncle Keith. Is any of this information correct? If it is, then there is little doubt that we are sisters.

Awaiting your answer on tiptoes,

Hermione Diane Granger

Dear Hermione,

EVERTHING YOU SAID IS TRUE! So...that means you are my sister. I have to tell Chacha! But first...what are Mum and Dad like? And what are you like? Chacha and I are coming Saturday to England. She says that I am going to attend Hogwarts this year and move back in with you and Mum and Dad. I can't wait!

Giggling inside,

Erimentha

Dear Mint,

How did you aquire that nickname? And, yes, I am very excited!! Except now it's four days instead of five. I don't believe I am 'glued' to the computer yet, but I feel that we are growing closer with each e-mail.

Dear Hermione,

Chacha gave me that nickname when I was little. She said that I used to eat everything with a drop of peppermint oil. Sorry I've been so slow to return your message. We've been packing like crazy! TOMORROW'S THE DAY!!!!!!
