The girl who lived a curse

Chapter 2

i could feel the cold breeze stabbing against my skin and blowing through my hair while i sat alone outside the house. Who knows how long i've been out here, i'm pretty sure it wasn't Friday anymore. The sky was still as dark as the you-know-who's heart and i couldn't help but feel like i was lost under my own thoughts. I thought she would try to convince me to get inside the house, but she didn't. I couldn't take the cold air any longer so i decided to just burn down my pride and went inside. As soon as i walked inside the house, i could see that Aunt Milly haven't move from her seat in the dining table, even our plates were still exactly where i left them. Her expression is hard to read but i knew she was devastated by the look on her eyes. I couldn't help but feel guilty for her, she was waiting for me all this time. She didn't move from her position so i decided to make peace with her. Maybe it wasn't her fault.. i also knew somehow that maybe she just wanted me to be safe. how foolish of me to let her sit like that all night.

" Aunt Milly, i'm so sorry, it's just.. i.. uhm. i.. " i muttered, trying my best to explain to her but she cut me off.

" stop apologizing it's really not your fault. But i promise your parents not to tell as much about the wizarding world. I wanted to tell you everything, but i couldn't... we were only trying to protect you darling. i didn't mean to upset you, really.. i'm sorry i lied. But i did teach you somethings that i wasn't supposed to and i.. "

" it's okay, aunt Milly. i was being a bitch anyways "

She brings down the floating dining table and she gave me a hug, i return her hug tightly.

" and i promise not to tell your mom about you saying a bad word earlier "

She winked and i let out a small giggle.

" well i'm going to clean all of this up. So why don't you go up stairs and get yourself some rest "

" i'll help " i offer, but she shook her head and gave me a smile

" no, you have to go to bed now. Just because i'm old doesn't mean i cannot get things done you know. Plus, you probably wouldn't wake up tomorrow if you don't go to bed now " she said while picking up the plates from the table.

" uhm.. okay. i'll guess i see you in the morning. Good night, aunt Milly "

" Good night, sweet Alexis " as she disappear somewhere around the kitchen and only her voice can be heard from the far.

I grab my bag that i left in front of the living room earlier and went upstairs. She made me a bedroom here at her house since every weekend she would pick me up and i'll spent the rest of the weekend here, it's easier that way as she said. I stayed with her every weekend ever since two years ago, you know.. when we picked out a wand for me from that wand store in some weird but fantastic place. She didn't want to tell me where we were at the time cause she probably doesn't want me to be too attached to the magic world. I took out a pair of socks and my favourite black hoodie from my bag then put them all on. I toss myself to the bed as i imagine what it be like to actually go to a witchcraft and wizardry school. I wanted to go to Hogwarts so bad but i knew that even if the world is ending.. my parents would never let me go. As the thought of Hogwarts filling up my head.. i eventually close my eyes and fell a sleep.
