They didn't know

The secret never told

Almost the last two weeks of vacation and here i am sitting alone in my room crying. I wish that i could quit school. The tears roll down her cheek on her desk. The door was locked and the room was dark. As dark as her feelings. You could hear her parents downstairs talking. It wasn't really talking it was rather shouting to each other. They still loved eachother but something happened to them, that hurt the both of them. And Raven. Her brother Evan was never home he had important things to do. She didn't know what, but she couldn't care less. Raven didn't really had her parents when she needed to talk someone. The only one she had was herself. At school it wasn't good either. She went to RiverRain Highschool. The school itself was fine but the people there weren't. She hated it there, everday was hell. Everyday she got bullied for her looks. She ate her lunchfood in the bathroom. After school people made fun of her and the scars on her arms. It hurted her but she never told anyone. Not even her parents. She was scared that they wouldn't believe her so she kept her mouth shut. The whole summer was a dark hole for her. The only thing she did was reading about a wizariding school. She really wanted to go there but she wasn't a witch so she had no choice.

She heard a knock on the door. 'Can i come in honey?' it was her dad. She stood up wiped the tears from the table and unlocked the door. He saw her red eyes when she opened the door and a worried look came on his face. Raven didn't notice it and sat down on her bed quietly. Her dad sat next to her and looked at her and saw that something was wrong. 'Honey? are you okay?' Raven wanted to tell him so bad but she didn't wanna cry so she nodded and mumbled something that he didn't understand. Raven pressed her lips against eachother. She played with her hands hoping that her father would leave but he didn't. He rubbed her back. He never did that. She looked at him and a tear rolled down her face. Her father smiled at her. He gave her a big hug and now she let it all out. She cried her eyes out on her fathers shoulder. It felt like a lot of weight fell off her. 'I'm so sorry Raven, we didn't know that something was going on.' her dad said while still hugging her. She let go of him and smiled. 'No dad don't be i didn't tell you guys.' When she calmed down Raven told her father everything that was going on. She saw her fathers eyes tearing up. He was speachless. The whole time she spoke she looked down. But sometimes looked up to her father. 'Darling why didn't you just tell us.' Raven went silent and looked at her dad. He gave her a hug again. 'Raven please show your arms.' He got serious. She carefully rolled up her sleeves. 'I'm sorry dad.' She rolled them down and they talked for a while. She told her mother everything to at dinner. They were both very supportive and caring. The next day they planned to go the movies with the three of them. That was the first time in ages that they went toghether. It was also the first day her parents didn't argue. Her parents daily checked on her. After a week her arms were healed and never touched again. Because of that her parents brought her a present. 'This is for you honey, we are very proud of you.' Her mom said with a big smile. Raven started to tear up but this time it were happy tears. She got a new book about the school. Her parents knew about how much she loved the school. She knew almost everything about it. 'Thanks Hannah and thanks Hunter.' Her parents smiled. She gave them a big hug when the bell rung.

'I'll open it' Raven stood up from her chair and walked to the door where she saw a long big man with a thick beard and thick hair standing in the doorway. 'So you must be Raven.' The man started. 'Can i come in?' Raven nodded and they walked to the livingroom toghether. Her parents didn't seem to be shocked because they knew exactly who he was. The man wanted to give her a letter but before he gave her the letter he reached out his hand and said 'oh by the way i'm Rubeus Hagrid, call me Hagrid.' The man smiled and Raven shook his hand. Then she realised it. 'MOM DAD IS THIS-.' She stopped. The man handed her the letter and then she saw it. It was a letter from Hogwarts. Raven started jumping in the air. She was so happy. Her parents were smiling at eachother and then at the man. 'Open it.' Hagrid said with a smile on his face. She opened the letter and read it. She started crying again. Hagrid opened his arms and Raven give him a hug. 'You were the lost witch we were trying to find for a few years, we got a letter from your mom and dad about you and that's how we found you.' Hagrid said. She had to pack her stuff, she had to go to the Diagon Alley to buy her school supplies. When she was done Raven was ready to go.
