Albus prepares breakfast on the dining table while his siblings sleep, peacefully forgetting all their horrible past for a few hours. We couldn't say the same for Albus, it was 6 a.m. and the day was already far too long for his taste.
He sat on a wooden chair and closed his eyes for a moment of exhaustion. When he re-opened his eyes, the clock showed 9 a.m.

”Fuck.” the ginger boy said tiredly.

While he complains about his fate, someone knocked on the door. Albus got up quickly to open the door wondering who could knock, when he opened the door he found his old neighbor Bathilda bagshot.

”Albus dear !” she said with a big smile filled with joy.

”hello Bathilda” answers the young man, smiling politely

”my dear boy, how are you today ?” said the old lady worried

”I'm pretty fine, don't worry about me”

”good then” endless minutes passed in awkward silence ”Well can I go inside dear?”

”oh-- yes of course--” Said the ginger boy awkwardly

Albus let the old lady come in, brought her to the dining room and presenting her a chair for Bathilda to sit down.
After everything installed, Albus looks at Bathilda intrigued.

”What brings you here my dear Bathilda?”

”Ah yes! Albus! My dear! I have my nephew who comes to live with me for a certain time, he is the age of Aberforth. But my little finger tells me they wouldn't get along!”said Bagshot, sneering.

”Aberforth doesn't get along with anyone except the goats obviously” Albus said with a tired smile.

Bathilda smiled softly and said ”Gellert, my nephew is clever despite being younger than you, I think you would get along wonderfully”

”I see” Albus say softly.

”I think it would do you good to surround you a little especially with everything that happens to you... you take care alone of your siblings at only 18 years old and it can be complicated not to be able to talk to anyone about your feelings..” she said a little worried.

”I guess you right” Albus sighs sadly.

”This is the reason why I want to introduce you to my nephew”

”It would be a pleasure” said Albus, smiling politely.

”Very well then! When would you be available to come to my place to introduce you to Gellert?”said Bathilda happily.

”I am available tomorrow afternoon around 3 p.m. if it doesn't bother”

”It's perfect” Bathilda gets up from her chair ”then see you tomorrow Albus”

”goodbye Bathilda”Albus said, bringing Bathilda back to the entrance.

”Say hello from me to your siblings”

”I will” said Albus before closed the door.

Albus is quite curious to meet this mysterious Gellert, he hopes he is truly interesting and not just a waste of time. Curiously, he had the feeling that he and Gellert would get along well.
Leaving his thoughts, the young man looked at the clock. 9:45 am He decided to go and wake up his siblings.
