Maria's POV
Today is the day, again. The day where I have to say goodbye to my aunt and where I get to have her cry on my shoulder as she hug me too tight and tell me to be careful. The day where I have to carry my trunk that is too heavy and I always end up falling. The day that I have to take the train (better known under the name hogwarts express) and I always make sure to spot the toilets because every god damn time I need to throw up due to my beautiful disease. And finally, it's the day that i get to see my friends (my personal favorite part).
I woke up at 4 am because i had an another seizure, wonderful. It's not the first time, far from there, but it never fail to worry my aunt. I never remember when it happens, it's always my aunt Gina that tells me what happened.
In the morning
« Maria dear it's time to wake up » I felt someone shake me lightly
« Yea yea 5 more minutes » I put my head under the cover. My aunt sigh.
« Oh I'm afraid that in 5 minutes you will be late dear and we don't want that, do we? » she pull off the cover off my head. She take a pillow and start hitting me playfully with it.
« Alright alright I'm up stop hitting me » I giggle. She then stop and leave my room laughing but I know she is sad that it's the day that I leave for hogwarts one more year.
« Don't forget to take your medication dear, your breakfast is alright on the table! » she yelled from downstairs.
« OKAY!» I yell back. Once I'm done taking my millions pills, one for my heart, one for my blood, one for the energy and the others I never remember what they are for but my doctor always tells me how important it is for me to take them. I run downstairs to eat breakfast and once again I get the speech that my aunt give me every year before I leave to hogwarts. Basically she tells me to be careful, not to eat to much candy, not put myself in a dangerous position bla bla bla... i always try to reassure her that everything is gonna be alright but even me I don't know what could happen. Anyways, after the speech that seemed to take hours, I grabbed my trunk and made my way to the train station with Gina.
At the train station
When we arrived, I saw a bunch of first year nervous to pass through the wall that lead to the station 9 3/4. When it's finally my turn, my aunt take my hand and squeeze it tightly. I think she broke a couple bones in my hand.
In the other side of the wall we finally see the hogwarts express. Gina take me in her arms once again in a bone crushing hug and remind me ONCE AGAIN to be careful witch I tell her that I will.
« Promise me to be prudent » she tells me still in the hug.
« You know that I will aunt Gina, I promise » I reassure her. « I love you sweetheart, don't forget to have fun » we pull away from the hug. « I love you too auntie bye bye » I kiss her cheek and wipe her tears off of her face. « Bye » she tells me with a shaky voice.
I then made my way into the train. « one more year » I tell myself.
