Author's Note: Well, I just realized that I haven't had a disclaimer yet so without further ado...
I do not own anything except for my original content and what not.
I never knew that two measly days could be filled with such agony. After arriving home from the best day of my life, I received my 'lessons' as you know, and the next day was even worse. Rita even joined in on the fun. I was starved, beaten, and assaulted. They had been sent a letter from Hogwarts describing my acceptance and all that entails. John decided to believe it because it meant that they could be rid of me for a while. He and Rita also decided that this meant I would have a memorable farewell. I wore my mask of indifference for the entirety of those two days. I was most concerned with how I would hide my bruises and scars from the world outside of this house. What would Hagrid and Andie say? What would the teachers say? Most of all, what would the other kids say? I would be marked as 'damaged goods' and 'freak' as soon as I set foot on the platform. It would be just like the rest of my life. If they don't outcast me because of my home life, it will be because of my looks, or my shyness around those I don't know (other than Hagrid of course, I could tell he felt the same way). I would just have to accept the stares and jeers. I just hope that Andie isn't brought down with me. I want her to have an enjoyable school experience. Maybe, I can slowly pull away from her and she will be left with her new, better, more popular friends. I was alone before her and I can be alone again if it means her happiness. Well, let's get away from this little pity party. After enduring my last beating until next summer, I took my trunk, walked outside, and waited for my new life.
Author's Note: Okay, I know that was probably the shortest chapter in the history of the galaxy, but I needed it for a lead into the next chapter.
