As I walked down the seemingly endless hall to my bedroom my eyes caught a small frail figure coming out of the room where my mother's belongings were kept, which was just across from my room. "Calvus? Is that you?" I said in a loud whisper down the hall, "mistress y/n! How it nice is to see you again after such a long time." the old house elf spoke in a soft tone. "what were you doing in that room?" I asked as I raised a brow, "I must keep your mothers belongings clean; it feels like the right thing to do seen as she was the only one who has ever been nice to me, oh and you of course" he said with a shy smile. I gave him a warm smile and turned to go into my room. 

My bedroom was just how I left it, there was even a book left on my nightstand, it was one of my mother's books that I decided to read to help myself feel closer to her after she passed. My room had dusty blush-coloured walls and an ivory ladder type shelving unit that was placed next to my door, it had a few books and sentimental items such as a childhood stuffed bear and small picture frame with a picture of my mother holding me when I was a baby in it. My bed was a four-post bedframe that was ivory to match my décor and had cream voile curtains on each corner, it was located under the centre of my window and was perfectly made with fresh bedding which had a grey floral pattern covering them. I had a desk to the right of the room which had my ink, quill and parchment paper just in case I want to write a letter to my old friends at Beauxbatons, it also had a small candle for some light when I write. My floor had carpet which was a light grey and soft to the touch. The ivory wardrobe and drawer unit to the left of the room had all my clothes that I brought back from the academy already packed away in them when I went to check. "well, looks like I don't need to do anything so I might as well go to sleep." I yawned.

I got changed into a plain black cami top and some black drawstring cotton shorts and got into bed and as soon as my head hit the pillow, I fell asleep.

The summer came and went and now it's two nights before I head off to Hogwarts. During the summer I got a list of what I needed to get for my new life at Hogwarts so our house elf Calvus went and got my school supplies which included books, uniform and a new cauldron because I accidently left mine. 

I sat in my room checking out my new books and I heard a squark from outside my door which startled me but I decided to ignore it. Until I heard it again, so I got up and opened my door and to my surprise it was an owl in a beautiful golden cage. "your stepfather told me to get you her mistress!" the kind elf said as he did a small bow and backed away from the bird. "why though? He has never let me have one before, even at Beauxbatons he forbade me from getting one!" I said in a shocked manor. "must be a change of heart mistress" he said with a hint of confusion and I knew the exact way he must be thinking after all my stepfather hates me so why get me something that would make me even the slightest bit happy. 

I decided to pick the cage up and bring the beautiful black barn owl into my room, I placed her on my desk and sat on my bed looking at her in admiration, she was magnificent her big black eyes watching my every move as I shuffled further back onto my bed, then it dawned on me, I haven't given her a name. "what should I call you then?" I wondered out loud. "how about Pandora?" she gave a small squark of acceptance and started to preen her feathers. 

It was getting dark and I thought I'd let Pandora out for a fly and decided to leave my window open for her to come back when she wants, so I opened her cage and told her she can come back when she wants hoping that she would understand me. As she flew off, I decided to get a random book from my shelf, got into bed and started to read it.

 As I got to the fifth chapter my eyes started to droop so I put my bookmark in, closed the book and set it on my nightstand. I got up and walked to my drawers and got a long sleeved pastel purple pyjama top and a pair of long cream pyjama bottoms, I got dressed into them and slipped under the warm covers and nestled my head into my pillow and drifted to sleep.
