July 18th
Today was my last day grounded, thank goodness! I thought that I would be able to lat, but when you spend two days locked in your bedroom, after awhile you just can't take it anymore. Anyway, my parents surprised me with some unexpected news this morning.
"Hermione, do you remember the Nelsons?" Mum asked me as I sat down for breakfast.
"Sure I remember them," I replied, "Ella had been my best friend since we were babies, and Mr. and Mrs. Nelson were your best friends. Why?"
"Well, while you were grounded, they called. Every summer, as you know, they go on vacation to America. This year, they weren't able to get a flight, so they're staying in England."
"And..," I said, knowing what she was going to say, but still wanting to hear it.
"And they're coming over here today for a visit," Mom finished.
SO that was my surprising news. My best friend, who I might add I have not seen for five years, is coming here TODAY!! ARRGH!! Okay, Hermione, stop screaming, it's not that bad. You should be excited to see Ella again, not nervous. BUT WHAT IF SHE CHANGED!!! I know I have over the past five years. What if she's not the girl I used to know anymore? I could go on forever with the what ifs, but there is one thought that stands out in my mind above the rest. WHAT IF SHE DOESN'T LIKE ME ANYMORE? Oh no, the doorbell just rung. THEY'RE HERE!!
