I saw an owl.
But it was strange cause there were no owls in LA.
At least there weren't supposed to be any owls in LA.
Then my window flew open and it came in.
It landed on my desk and dropped a letter.
It looked like the one I had before.
I decided not to tell my dad there was an owl in my room.
He probably wouldn't believe it.
If he did, he'll probably go nuts.
I took the letter and opened it. (I saw that it was addressed to me.)
It read:
Dear Miss Elizabeth,
Magic is real. I just wanted to say that to you cause before, you seemed to have a hard time believing it. I really hope to see you in Hogwarts a week later and you should really read the other piece of paper in the last letter.
Sincerely,
Albus Dumbledore
Headmaster of Hogwarts
I gasped.
There was another letter in the envelope!
I quickly opened the other envelope and searched through it.
Then I saw a letter.
It was very small and hardly anyone can find it.
But it read:
Since it is already September 1(when Hogwarts starts) we will give you a week before you come. You will go to Kings Cross (in London) and there will be a wizard waiting for you. You may not recognize him but he will recognize you. Then he will lead you to Headquarters 9 3/4. The train will lead you to Hogwarts, which you will be sorted into your house (there are Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin). 3 days from now, someone will pick you up and buy you everything. We can't explain everything to you now but later. Oh yeah someone will come over and take you to London. You'll be apparating.
Sincerely,
Professor McGonagall
Assistant Headmistress
I put the letter away and sat on my bed to think.
I haven't even been to High school and now I'm going to have to choose if I want to go to another school or not?
And how did they know I didn't believe in magic just a few minutes ago.
This was all becoming stranger and stranger.
I though Witches were suppose to be evil and you know (what they say in fairy tales).
I guess I wanted to go.
What? This guy said magic was real so I guess I'll give it a true.
Besides the fact that it's all the way in London, I think it's going to be good.
And maybe there is such thing as magic.
(Don't tell anyone this but I've always believed in magic secretly -even now).
I didn't want to get embarrassed or anything.
I ran down the stairs to tell my dad about my decision.
"Dad," I said.
"Yes," he said.
"Wait a minute, shouldn't you be at work?" I asked and smirked.
"It's my day off, Elizabeth," he said and smiled.
"Anyways, I've made my choice and I think I want to go to this Hogwarts school," I said.
"Fine with me," he said and turn back to his newspaper that he was reading.
"You're not angry or worried or anything?" I asked.
"No, why should I be?" he asked rather surprised.
"Because it's all the way in London," I said quickly.
"Who will take you there?" he asked too calm.
"I don't know but in the letter it said someone will," I said.
"Okay I hope you will have fun in that school," he said not taking his eyes off that paper.
"Okay dad tell me what's wrong," I said.
"What do you mean?" he said surprised.
"You're acting all weird and too calm," I said with anger.
I didn't know if it was a bad thing or a good thing but I was confused and angry.
"So," he said.
"That's not you," I said.
"Calm down Elizabeth. I said that you could go. What's the matter with you? Do you want to go or not?" he said.
"I'm sorry but your calmness got my all nuts," I said and walked up to my room.
"I guess I should start packing now," I thought and got out a big suitcase.
I put most of my clothes in there and then I put my make-up (girls wear make-up right?).
And also some of my other things.
