Chapter eight
The lives of Nicole and Ginny
Can't help it if I space in a daze
My eyes tune out the other way
I may switch off and go in a daydream
In this head my thoughts are deep
But sometimes I can't even sleep
Would someone be and not pretend?
I'm off again in my world
Avril Lavigne My world
" Okay, so this is a bad thing," Nicole said nervously" We have no idea where Ginny is."
" well, we could wait until you get your memory back," Hermione suggested.
" But that's going to take forever! I have to find Ginny and tell her something before its too late!" Selene cried.
Ginny looked around her. She thought this didn't look like her domitory. She was a bright room, with lots of weird furnishings. Before she had time to wonder, a girl came in the room.
" Oh ,you are awake," She had brown hair that was loosely braided and large almond shaped green eyes. She looked about ten. " Nicole, where did you go yesterday with mom and dad? When you came back, you were a mess!"
" Huh?" Before Ginny could say anything more, a woman entered.
" Darling you are awake, wonderful!" Ginny guessed that she was the mother. " first you are to have your Italian lessons , then French lessons and you shall eat lunch. After lunch, you will go to ballet and painting. After dinner, there's your piano practice, so let's hurry. It will be a busy day. And next time you dye your hair, please discuss it with me."
Ginny blinked, but then the mother bend down and whispered, " As for your magic, we will pretend it doesn't exist, I mean you don't have your, what do they call it, wand with you, do you?" Without waiting for a reply, she left.
" What's your name?" Ginny asked the young girl, who was watching her with interest.
" Huh? Nikki, I'm your sister, Cornelia. You are joking, right?" Cornelia replied, puzzled.
" Of course,'' Ginny lied. Who was this Nicole person?
Nicole, Selene and Hermione sat in silence.
" I'll go and look up spells for recovering your memories, " Hermione said finally. She got up and left.
" Is she always like that?" Nicole asked, staring after her.
" Yup, when Hermione's got a problem, the books can solve it," Selene smiled slightly.
" I remember a little bit about what happened…" Nicole said suddenly. " I was in this school and a saw a girl who looked like me, except she had red hair. The girl was lying down."
" Ginny…"Selene said. " I wonder what she's doing right now."
Ginny sat impatiently through her French lesson.
" Le bateau est sur l'eau," her tutor sang. He motioned for her to repeat the song.
" La batu et sur lalu," Ginny tried the foreign words uncomfortably.
" No no no, mademoiselle. It is le bateau est sur l'eau ,'' He sang melodiously.
"Le bateau est sur l'eau," Ginny reluctantly sang.
" Tres bien! Tres bien!" Her tutor clapped. A servant rang a bell, signaling the end of class. Ginny ran out of the room, relieved to escape the torture of French I. She bumped into Cornelia.
" Hey, Nikki!" Cornelia chirped brightly. " Isn't our new Italian tutor something?"
Ginny looked behind Cornelia. Her eyes widened in reorganization.
