Friends? Closed

Volaril walked into the library, sighing. I’m a Ravenclaw. She thought. Then, she shoved her hand in her pocket and grabbed her latest copy of The Quibbler. She flipped through the pages and smiled as she sat down in one of the chairs. Volaril loved The Quibbler. As she flipped to the very last page in the issue, she frowned. There was a page marking the end, and as she slipped it out, she remembered that she’d tucked the note her parents had written her into her Quibbler. A tear slipped down her cheek as she read the note again and again.

Dear Volaril,
I hope you have the best time at school! I know you’re going to make lots of friends, and have lots of fun. Your pups Floof and Violet miss you just as much as I do, and your sister misses you too. Be brave, my pumpkin.
- Dad
Dear Val,
You are so brave to go all the way to a whole new place without your family! We all admire your courage. I am so jealous of all the fun you’re going to have! We miss you so much already. Keep being yourself!
- Mum
Hey Val!
Mum and Dad made me write so I am. Have fun at your school. Miss u. Bai!
- Kat (Ur sis)

Volaril smiled through her tears when she read her sister’s short message. She sighed and wished she could share her magic with her ‘muggle’ family.
