“A Vault Full of Surprises”
Mike and his mother were planning to buy items required in Hogwarts.
He was just standing and watching the crowds rushing through the narrow paths
His mother remembered that they have to even collect some money from the bank, she told him 'Mike! come and follow me just don't apart from me"
Mike followed her all the way through crowds and reached in front of a long whitish building with written Gringotts Bank, Mike said "Wow! mom look it's what my aunt keep talking about all the time". They entered and followed the way to the reception, at first Mike got nervous and scared by looking the goblins. Her mother said to the goblin at reception "I want to take out some money from my vault" Goblin lean on the desk and saw Mike and his mom, and asked "Fine, have you brought key?" mother replied "Oh yes!".
He ordered a goblin to take us to our vault, he passed a gate and sat on a rail cart going into a dark cave like something. As Mike saw at bottom he could not bear to even sit, as it was a deep ravine below. As soon as they reached to their vault Mike fell to vomit, after he became comfort his mother gave the key to the goblin and he opened the door.
Inside it there was a castle made of gold, he was surprised to see it and her mom too. It looks like a tower made of gold, and it was shining like stars. His mom took out some coins and headed back to exit, now they can buy the items for Hogwarts.
During all this Mike was so surprised, nervous and also a little scared...
Now they continued their purchasing for leftover items

“A Vault Full of Surprises”
Gringotts was a massive, snow-white, multi-story marble building in the middle of Diagon Alley, near the intersection with Knockturn Alley, towering over the neighboring shops. I entered Gringotts for the first time. The marble floor was cold and smooth, every sound seemed louder than usual. Goblins sat behind desks. None of them looked friendly.
I approached one of the desks, trying my best to sound calm: "Excuse me. I'm here to open the safe."
The goblin slowly raised his head to look at me. His eyes were sharp and black, staring at me as if he could see through my clothes, my thoughts, even my spine. I swallowed, but didn't look away. He nodded once, briefly and effectively.
"Follow me," he said.
His voice was low and hoarse, but steady. I followed him down a long corridor and into the tunnel. The air grew colder as I walked. A small cart was waiting on the metal tracks. The elf stepped inside and motioned for me to follow. I climbed in, holding onto the railing as the cart jerked forward and sped off into the darkness. Then I stood in front of the safe and began to check and take out the money I needed to prepare for school.
