Yeri

“Yeri, how are you feeling?” My father asked me with a worried gaze.

“Like I said before Dad” I said already done with this false worried family game. “I’m Fine ok? No need to overreact.”

“Yeri, believe it or not, you gave your mother and me the scare of our lives”.

I didn’t respond him back, if they were so worried like they said they were, then what’s the reason why they never noticed that I was missing back there huh? They said they were looking for me but I know very well that they were only looking for Jimin, They always do that, the never care about what I do, they only care about my dear older brother, of course he’s the champion of our house, he won the last triwizard tournament and now he is playing in the International Quidditch, I can’t stand it anymore.

“Yeri! There you are” My mother came in the room. “Really? Can’t you look at least a little bit happier? aren’t you excited? It’s your first year in Hogwarts!”

Excited wouldn’t be the word I would use to describe what I was feeling right now.  Being a muggle-born wasn’t a bad thing, at least not at home of course. But after what happened in the tournament I didn’t wanted to imagine what could happen in the school. I fully knew that there were houses, and I fully knew there were also some people there that had a kink for discrimination toward muggle-borns like me I really couldn’t support any kind of bullying, I always end up humiliating myself.

“You see, Yeri here says that we weren’t worried about her back in the tournament” Dad said to my mother.

“Foolish! How dare you? We were scared to death Yeri, we love you, we WERE worried” My mother looked right straight to me, she always had that glint of disappointment in her eyes when she looked at me that makes me turn away immediately.

Again, words didn’t come out from my mouth.

“Yeri, we both love you very deeply alright? Stop with that self-pity of yours.” Father said with a firm tone. “Let’s take you to the station ok?”

“Fine” I said picking up my suitcase, giving one last look to my room wishing that I didn’t have to leave it.

Naeun

“Naeun please understand, I did it to protect you sweetie!” My mother’s never ending speech was starting to get irritating.

I locked myself in my room and then all my rage became tears as I cuddle in my blankets. My own mother lied to me for such a long time, my OWN mother, the one person I trusted the most, the person I most admired just betrayed me in the worst way; all this years of being envious about magical people, all this years fantasizing about magic and now I knew.

I was indeed a wizard.

How could she? All this thoughts were consuming me. I had already fourteen, my time to learn magic was probably gone by this time. All my of my deepest dreams was to be magical like mom, but now I couldn’t.

I fell asleep hoping everything was just a bad dream, that my mother never had lied to me and that I knew who I was completely again.

I dreamt that night about a lot of things, the flying athletes, three jerks, the crying girl, the creepiest persons and a mysterious boy with handsome features.  All came back to me and I wasn’t sure anymore if I wanted to really wake up again despite everything that happened, everything in my dream was magical and I loved it.

“Naeun!” I heard a voice that this time woke me up.

“What mother!? How did you enter huh? I’m pretty sure I locked up the door” I said narrowing my eyes at the sight of my mom nervous features.

“Did you just use magic? How dare you? How can you use magic in a time like this? Are you that insensitive?

“Wait Naeun!” My mother said in panicked when she saw me going rapidly out of the room and downstairs. “Something came for you Naeun, just wait please”

That made me stop.

“Something?” I said “What is it now mother? Is it a trick?

“No sweetie, please sit with me, I’ll explain everything” My mother said while sitting in the coach taking a strange letter with her.

“What is it about? Are the secrets still no over? Is it that I’m not only a wizard but also that my aunt Leticia is a gnome as I always said she was?”

“Don’t be like that Naeun” My mother said with a reproaching gaze. “Look” She said giving me the letter with obviously hope in her eyes.

I rolled my eyes and I opened the letter, what could be so special about it? I started reading it.

“HOGWARTS SCHOOL 
of WITCHCRAFT and WIZARDRY “
