Chapter 6:

Mistress said she had no bloody clue where to get the items. But she agreed to take me to the town to look for as many supplies as i could find, and afford. I decided to get a bag ready with my clothes. They didn't mention a uniform, so I decided that I would be able to wear what I wanted at school.

I started thinking. Thinking about the school and what whould happen. Thinking if I'd make friends, or if I was making a mistake by leaving my only one. I was thinking if the headmaster of the school would take one look at me and say: "Ooo you're Aleezé Jemers, I was thinking of someone else, sorry, you'd have to go back to your orphanage." I started to panic. But then came back to reality.

I packed all the clothes that I owned, which wasn't a lot, but it was fine. The next morning mistress woke me up early to get my supplies. We found a quill, 4 bottles of ink, the books (it took 3 hours to find the 2 books) and the parchment. Mistress said that the clothes I owned were probably not appropriate attire for the boarding school. I failed to mention that there was no dress code, or at least one that i knew of. We went into a school uniform clothing store. Mistress asked the woman behind the counter if she knew anything about the school Hogwarts. The woman said she'd look it up. The lady said there was no school called Hogwarts, and that it probably just didn't have a dress code. Mistress bought me some new skirts and blouses just to be clean.

The letter mentioned a pet. I wasn't sure what the pet was for. But it was a good thing to be on supply list. I wanted a dog, but mistress said she'd rather me have something else. I remembered the owl outside and asked her for one. She made a face but in the end we bought a small one. I couldn't decide what to name him, so I left the naming for later. The parchment containing the letters had one other thing in it. It was a ticket to the Kings Cross Station, and I could've sworn that it wasn't in the parchment earlier, but I decided it was good that I found it anyways. It was labeled for Platform 9 ¾ . I am very concerned right now.
