It didn't take long for me to adjust. Tom was really nice even though sometimes he talked a little much. Seeing new Witches and Wizards every day was so much fun and I learnt a lot, sometimes people would be really rude but often they were nice and a kind man with red hair even gave me a Knut as a tip. Soon Sunday arrived and I went to the Second-hand shop having earned two Galleons and 14 sickles. A kind Lady greeted me when I entered the shop and asked me what she could do for me, I answered: "Well Ma'am I'm new to the Wizarding World and need a Book that does not cost a lot but explains a lot about everything." She beamed at me. "I have just the right thing for you, I'll be right back." She walked to a big Bookshelf and pulled out a thick Book. "Here, it will explain everything you need to know, well most things anyway." "How much would that be?" I asked "10 sickles sweety" I thought about it, on one hand I could do with some information but on the other hand 10 sickles were a lot. "Well, what if I give you ten sickles and after I've read the book, I'll bring it back and then you can give me some of my Money?" "Well, okay. How about I'll give you eight sickled back?" "Thanks Ma'am." I gave her the Money and made my way back to the leaky Cauldron. "Hello Tom" I said to the Barman and smiled, overall, I had changed a little since my arrival. For one smiling was no rare thing for me to do anymore, I had started being more open, trusting if you like. And it had only been five days. I went to my room and sat down on the bed, opened the Book and was immediately drawn in.
The next morning, I woke up early as always, went down and eat some Breakfast. I finished quickly and went to my normal spot in a Corner of the shop waiting for customers. I did not have to wait long already first Customers made their way into the dimly lit bar. Walking over to a Woman with nearly no hair, a big noes and crooked teeth I asked; "Could I bring you anything ma'am?" "I'll have a full English breakfast please." "That will be one Galleon please." She handed me the Money and I made my way to the Bar. "One full English Breakfast Tom." He smiled when I gave him the Money and walked to the kitchen giving the order to Jeff our cook. I meanwhile went to the next Customer, a young man with light brown Hair and deep blue eyes. "What can I bring you sir?" "Just a cup of tea and a Muffin please." "That would be ten sickles then." He handed me the Money and I walked to Tom, giving him the Order and the Money.
