Hi everyone! Sorry for the bad and late start. I had lots of things to do and to be honest, I was very lazy. Forgive me. As an apology, I uploaded 2 new chapters today. Please enjoy and in this chapter I have a gift for all you Harry Potter fans out there, try to recognize what gift I'm talking about. That's all, now you can continue to read.

Chapter 2: Hi, Goblin! Magic! I'm a wizard!? Yay?

August 17, 2018 (continued)-

"How's that possible? I've never even seen or heard of the school, how would I get an admission notice from it?" I asked.

"Just like how you find a dollar on the street without knowing who's it is." Said Mr. Gobbins in a matter of fact tone.

I looked at him like he was an alien with a pig's tail. "More like a hundred dollar bill." I muttered. Even though things were already confusing, it was ironic how when I was reading when my mom was waiting for her letter, and at the very same time, mine arrived from the very same school. I motioned Sara to leave Mr. Gobbins and me alone. As she left, I asked Mr. Gobbins a few questions. "What is this school about?"

"Witchcraft and Wizardry, hence the name." He said.

"Pardon? I'm sorry, I thought you just said Witchcraft and Wizardry." I said, laughing awkwardly.

"I did."

….

…..

…..

"Oh."

…..

…..

….

"So you mean to say magic?"

"Yes."

"That's nice."

"Any more questions?"

"Yes. When am I supposed to leave for the school? What school supplies do I need? How am I supposed to get there and where is it?"

"Now, I'll inform you, by the Hogwarts Express, and in the 'wizarding world'."

"Okay, just let me tell Sara and the others as well as give me time to pack my luggage." I said

"I have already informed Ms. Fernin and the others, they should be arriving any minute now. Your luggage has also been packed beforehand."

I went to my room and realized that indeed my luggage was packed and sat beside my bed. Creepy! Shrugging my chills down, I pulled a stool and stood on it while trying to unscrew my box from the roof. Yeah, I attach my treasure box on the ceiling don't judge me! As I climbed down the stool, Mr. Gobbins appeared behind me.

"Smart, I didn't notice that was even there. Who would've guessed a wooden box would be attached to the ceiling when covered by a hanging light." He complimented.

"I know, that's why I chose to put it there." I replied.

"What's in that box?" he asked.

I paused before answering, "It's my parents' dearest possessions, do you want to see them?"

"We have time."

I took that as a yes and carefully opened the lid the chest. Inside were 4 items. Each had its own purpose and great importance. "You see these rings? The gold one was my father's wedding ring and the silver one was my mother's. Both are the fragments of one ring and once attached you can read the carvings on the side, which says 'may we always be one'. This necklace is an heirloom passed down in my mother's side of the family while this tiny pocket watch is a gift my father had got from a dear friend of his."

"How do you know all this? I thought your parents died before you were born?"

"My Godfather told me about them, he was also the one who gave them to me but at the age of four, he had to leave for London and ever since then, I haven't seen him once. Its not like I was going to be with him in the first place, he had financial problems which is why he didn't take care of me but instead found me a more generous family, this orphanage. Wait. How do you know my parents died before I was born?" As I said that, I turned around and jumped slightly at what I encountered.

"Because Sara told me."

There standing behind me were the four siblings I mentioned yesterday. Carie was standing on her tiptoes, trying to see what's inside the chest while Jeremy had a bit of curiosity in his eyes but it quickly faded away as soon as he saw everything else. Jo-Anne looked at me and held up her arms so I could pick her up and I did. Andrew did nothing special but look at me in a hint of disbelief, don't know why? I put my chest carefully in one of my bags and walked back to them. "Why are you guys here?" I asked.

"Of course to come with you!" Stated Jo-Anne.

I looked at Mr. Gobbins for further clarification. When he nodded I stared at him with a 'why-are-they-coming-with-us?' look. Understanding my confusion, he answered my questions.

"Andrew is also being accepted into Hogwarts as a student and his siblings are going to be students also when they grow up, so I allowed them to accompany us till they say their fair wells." He said.

"You mean to say that she's/he's coming with me?!" I looked at Andrew in shock while the girls were giggling at our sudden outbursts in unison. I grabbed my bags with Jo-Anne and Carie's hands and walked off. Pausing, to wait for the others to come and Mr. Gobbins led us to an old-fashioned blue car. He loaded our luggage into the trunk, I'm surprised how all of our stuff fit into that tiny trunk. We all climbed into the car and Mr. Gibbons took his seat as the driver. He turned the keys to turn on the car and immediately the car lifted off the ground.

"Aaaaahhhh!" Both the girls screeched into my ears causing me to be half deaf. I looked around and saw Jeremy with wide eyes and furrowed brows, looking around panicky. Poor kid. I looked at Mr. Gobbins as he flipped a few switches under the radio. At a quick pace, the car levitated higher off the ground, which scared me a little seeing that it was my first time in a floating car. I saw Mr. Gobbins flip a big silver switch but nothing happened. Then I looked out the car window and to my shock, saw that the car was invisible! How cool was that! I sat back at my seat, gripping onto the kids' hands.

"You all might want to wear your seatbelts." Advised Mr. Gobbins. We all dared not to ask why, so swiftly everyone fastened his or her seatbelt. As soon as we heard the last click of the seatbelts, the car jerked forward into an amazing speed. It wasn't 'racing car' fast but it was enough to scare me. I looked out the window and gaped in awe at the sights. Durham looked beautiful in the sky, though plain, I love the peaceful look of the houses. Today is by far, one of the most magical days I have ever had, even though the day hasn't even begun as the same as my new life in the 'wizarding world'.

Till tomorrow then…
