As I tucked my green baggy sweater in to my gray skirt, Dad popped his head in and asked if I was ready to go. I said yes while pulling my strawberry blonde hair into a high pony tail.
"I have your contacts right here" said dad, handing them to me.
"Thanks" I said as I put the contacts into my eyes. I was so excited. Dad was finally letting me go to Hogwarts.
I have been home schooled for two years. I've never understood why he didn't let me go for my first two years but I get to now and that's all that matters. I've spent more hours than I can count just imagining what it will be like. I haven't had the chance to be around many kids my own age being that dad and I live in small cottage, deep in the forest. We go to town for the essentials and to hit Gringots when dad needs to make a transaction but other than that, we stay close to home. I'm a little anxious about making friends...I ask too many questions and I get way too chatty when I'm nervous. Surely the others will be welcoming though. Just as I was putting the finishing touches on my lip gloss, dad comes in my room.
"Remi, I have to tell u something." he said as he sat down in my fluffy green chair in the corner of my room. He sounded so serious and it made my stomach feel weird. I just knew he was about to tell me something bad.
"I am going to say something and I don't want you to get freaked out." he said all while looking at the ground trying not to make eye contact with me.
"Why would I be freaked out dad?" I asked while getting my shoes on.
"Well, you have a twin."
I dropped my shoe. "What did you say?"
"Yes, well, your parents decided to make me your Godfather and when they died, I had the pleasure of getting to bring you home to raise. But, unfortunately, your brother was given a different Godfather and he was unable to care for him. I would have taken him in as well but wizard laws can be tricky so he went to live with a family member. " dad explained.
In shock, all I could ask was, "Who is the twin?"
"Its Harry Potter" said dad getting up from the chair.
My jaw dropped. I felt like all the blood in my body was rushing to my head. I was so dizzy I plopped down on the floor. "I'm related to the chosen one? Does he know?" I asked.
"No" he said.
"Ok" I said while standing up and getting my bag. Then we walked out the door, got in the car, and drove to Kings Cross.
