Pre-Hogwarts Story

Vivien Hollow grew up in a magical household, though her upbringing was unique. Her father, Fin Hollow, is a pure-blood wizard, while her mother, Lidia Hollow, is a Muggle of Slavic heritage. This mix gave Vivien a rich background and the ability to speak two languages in addition to English. They lived in a cozy house in London near Grimmauld Place, concealed from Muggle eyes by enchantments. Because of their magical heritage, Vivien’s family strictly adhered to the statute of secrecy. Vivien was homeschooled by her parents. Vivien's favorite way to spend time with her father was for the two of them talk about magic. Mother took care about general studies like math, geography, languages. Vivien was curios child from the very first day as she was born. And that curiosity cherished her mother. Vivien was the one who insisted to study geography. She wanted to know about different countries as some of her relatives were living in Ukraine, part was from UK, and some was from Spain. Knowing that she's living in under differ rules than regular people she met on playgrounds or any other public spaces made her childhood a balancing act, especially since her best friend, Max, was a Muggle. They met when Vivien was 5, at a local park and bonded over shared interests, volleyball ( Vivien really like to play volleyball as her mom taught her ). Mother knew it was safe to walk with Vivien among Muggles as she knew that if she'll say something inappropriate her family could be in danger. She loved her family so she knew that a theme of magic is strictly forbidden outside the wizards community. Vivien could never invite Max to her home or reveal her world. Her parents insisted she maintain the secrecy, even as she struggled with the divide it created in their friendship. She often felt guilty for hiding such an important part of her identity from Max. Instead, she cherished their time together in the Muggle world, visiting libraries, exploring the city, and sharing stories.

Vivien's early years were filled with stories of magic shared by her grandfather, Henry Hollow, but practical magical training was never a priority in their household. Her father believed in letting her abilities develop naturally.

Her first big magical incident happened with her when she was 6. It was during an argument with a friend, neighbor pure blood boy with whom she was spending time as a child. He was her closest wizard friend by that time. His name was Nick he was a few months younger than Vivien what was shaming him time to time. Vivien din't care about his age as she loved to spent time with him. The only one problem which Nick has, is that he never know when to stop. They were playing at his place one Sunday morning. They were chasing his cat Muriel, pretty old and lazy but very playful. They were running after him when Nick pushed Vivien aside to win. Vivien was light which made her fly to the side and hit her head on the edge of the table. It hurt but Vivienne was not the one to run crying to her mother. She got up went to Nick and asked "You pushed me! You could have won if you wanted to!" To which Nick said "Yeah, of course! You wanted to push me because you saw that I was going to win!" Vivienne was furious. She didn't think Nick would say that she can purposefully hurt him, she was red as a tomato of anger, her eyebrows were crossed, if anyone came into the room they would think she wanted to hit him. Suddenly, she glance at him and his glasses cracked without her touching them. They both were shocked. How could they crack by themself. They run to share it with their moms and Nick's mom exclaimed "Vivien, I'm so glad! That's was your first instance of magic! Don't worry about glasses I'll fix them." In the matter of second she took her wand and spell " Reparo!" Nick's glasses were fixed. He turned his head to Vivien and says "Don't worry, I'll catch up with you! I'm sure that my first magic will be soon!" They all laughed. Vivien even forget what made her crack his glasses as she was happy to understand that someday she will be able to use her magic same way as her father.
