History/Background Story: Aya-Marie Rafiq was born to Hazma Rafiq, an Arabian auror, and Tiana Valesquez, a Puerto Rican ministry worker in the Improper Use of Magic department. The Rafiqs are a well-known pureblood family who are more known for everyone in their family being extraordinary curse-breakers while Tiana's family is known for owning quite a few of restaurants, until Tiana of course. They'd met in Abu Dubai and fell in love before they moved to Oxford and had Raj, Dalia, and Amina (Aya's older siblings). Aya-Marie was then born on the day of love and she was born with a little smile on her face. She had a relatively happy childhood, she was tutored in the core wizarding subjects and got to choose her own electives which ended up being Sign Language, Spanish, and Arabic. She made friends with Lana White and Corey Philips, both of whom she lost touch with in after Lana moved to America and Corey went to Paris. Despite having friends, Aya-Marie felt like her siblings were her best friends mostly because they were always there for her when her friends weren't. She got into a lot of sports after getting her acceptance letter from Hogwarts and even started going to the Library more, it became pretty clear that she was very excited to head to Hogwarts in September. She even made a few muggle friends, though she is careful in keeping her magical life and false muggle life separate. It happened when Aya-Marie was 8, she'd been attempting to sign her own name and was struggling. She just couldn't get her 'r' right, and she was getting very agitated. Before she knew it, her book that had her guide on it, was on fire. Luckily her mom was there and put out the fire and baked Aya-Marie a celebratory cake.
