You were a normal kid. Totally normal. Well, except for the fact that you were poor. And your dad wasn’t your biggest fan. But at least you still had your mom.

Today was your 15th birthday. You hadn’t gotten much. Just 2 gifts. One, a book from your mom, because she knew how much you loved to read. It was a princess book, but at least she tried. Your dad got you a flower. It was a tulip. You weren’t fond of tulips.

Once both your parents had left for work, you put your headphones on, and started to clean, as they had told you to. You glanced towards the door, seeing a letter slip under the door. Confused, you picked it up.

HOGWARTS: school of witchcraft and wizardry. London

This had to be a joke. I mean, you lived in America. No where near London. You read the letter. It had a supply list, instructions, and a schedule. Also a personal introduction from the principal himself. With the words at the bottom

Apologies for the late letter. send the owl back if you have any questions

To your surprise, you opened the door, and there was a brown owl.
