The beginning of my magical journey
*Bip Bip Bip*
My eyes opened wide. Usually I didn’t set my own alarm, but today is special.
Today is the day I’m getting my acceptance letter to Hogwarts!
I quickly threw on my purple morning robe, and ran down the stairs.
In my haste I had forgotten to comb my hair, and i had only one flipper on, the other had been lost somewhere along the way.
Upon entering the study, which was normally filled with different chairs, ladders and a few desks, I found it completely empty. Well almost. There was a desk in the middle of the room. On it was two things. One of them was a small cake, with “Congratulations Sam, on your 11th birthday”. The other was a golden-white parchment letter, with a red wax stamp.
Nobody had to tell me what that letter was, I already knew. It was my acceptance letter into Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Despite my impatience, I carefully opened the letter.
“Dear Ms. Albion,
We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Please find enclosed a list of all necessary books and equipment.
Term begins on 1 September. We await your owl by no later than 31 July.”
I read and re-read the letter a dozen times before I could finally take my eyes off of it.
Finally I had been accepted into Hogwarts.
My eyes turned to the cake, normally we’d have a normal breakfast, but today was special.
I turned around to see Melissa, my guardian.
“Melissa, thank you so much for the cake.”
“It’s my pleasure Sam. I’m sorry your parents can’t be here on this special day, but I know they’d both be so proud of you.”
A few tears rolled down my cheeks. I’m sure she’s right. I’m sure my parents would be proud, had they only been here.
