"It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities."- Albus Dumbledore
*************************
On the train, however Sonakshi didn't had the leisure to think about any matter. She was looking around absorbing every single detail and enjoying every moment of it. This was a lifetime opportunity and she couldn't miss it for anything. She took pictures all around the compartments, in the long corridors and each and every significant part of the train. They even acted out the fight seen of Harry and Draco too. Finally the train started, and they were amused too see people waving at them from the green landscapes around. How sweet!

"I can't believe you managed to get the compartment on the left side" She gave Pratik a quick hug and ran to sit beside the window, after closing the glass door behind her. Announcements were made that in the mean time about the journey and they just stated that the famous Glenfinnan Viaduct and other beautiful scenarios were mostly on the left side.
Pratik chuckled at this." Just a hug? Uhmm ... You know I could do with a present or something of that sort " he mumbled softly to himself. "Well, ofc we have a present for you, Baby. Did you think we won't?" She smiled brightly handing over the wand the women had gave them. Kiara already had a full wand collection while Sona loved her Sirius black one.
Pratik wanted to refuse again but before that Kiara stormed into the compartment grumbling, "Sona, tui ekta idiot(You are an idiot). We would be staying for two just days. You really had to bring this much clothes with you. You even brought your bag pack." Sona stared guiltily at her grey travel bag. She had actually asked her aunt to pack her bag back leaving out a few clothing only. She basically had everything she brought from home. And her bag pack was mostly snacks and food with few other necessities. "Oh, Come on, Kiu tui amar best friend na?(you are my bestfriend ,no?)You know how much I love to dress up" She put on a cute pout," You look good in whatever you wear and look at me." She pointed at her self. Kiara rolled her eyes and shoved the bag to her friend and sat on the empty berth, opposite the two.
After sometime a few ladies came and provided them with tea and coffee. Sonakshi jumped at her mocha, everybody started laughing at her munching hungrily at the chocolate cake and cookies.
The Glenfinnan Viaduct was really gorgeous. Though the movie had hyped its popularity, nonetheless the scene they behold was beyond description. It was really a piece of art. And with the steam engine running on the bridge with all that smoke was dream-like. They felt they had somehow entered the 90s. The green fields, trees and the distant hills added to the already graceful ambience. Ah! It was such a treat to the eyes.
After what seem to be half an hour, the train had covered most of its path. The trio had a good time citing all the infamous places around and gaping at them excitedly. Now, Sona was lying lazily on Pratik's lap playing with the time turner. Pratik was staring at the wand in his hand and with the other hand playing with her ombre hair spread beautifully all around her. The shining silky brown wavy locks in his finger felt like a gliding snake sitting peacefully.
The wand was a normal one but Pratik wasn't much used to them. Though he had seen them in stores and with other people, he didn't fancy them much. Now here he was noticing every curve of the detailed piece of wood. After sometime, his eyelids were drooling too. He peered below, to find the girl fast asleep. Kiara on the other side was busy with her phone. He took this opportunity to close his eyes and surrender to the slumber tugging at his eyelids.
SONARIKA'S POV:
I didn't even know when i fell asleep. I was busy looking at the time turner. It looked like any ordinary time turner just that it had some small buttons on the back whose label had withered with its usage. I pressed on some of them however nothing significant happened. After some futile tries. I turned my attention to the ring but without my knowledge, my eyes had closed. However, I came to my senses on some loud knocking on the door. I woke up startled, nearly falling of the seat. Pratik had jerked up to and was looking around confused. However Kiara wasn't in her place and somehow the interior looked a bit old although everything was the same as before. The place seemed to smell like old books. Again there was a knock, I opened the door to find a very familiar women with a trolley called "Do you need anything from the trolley, dear?"
I gaped at her surprised. How on earth can she be here? Then again, maybe the train agency would have arranged for this to create the feel of the journey. I didn't realize I was staring until the women was feeling uncomfortable. I quickly looked at the trolley full of chocolate frogs, jelly slugs, Bertie Bott's every flavor beans, cauldron cakes, pastries and many more toffees and sweets. Wow! I can't believe its true. This is so much like the movie and the book. Of course, I want them like hell. I jumped out of joy." No thank you, but we are full." I turned back to glare at him for cutting in the MOST UNDESIRABLE MANNER. "Yes of course we'll have them and-" I reached for my bag to pay her when I found a heap of toffees on the table.
What? When did we bought them? Pratik also followed my eyes and he too was taken by surprise. "Aaah--I-W--e , um ,We" I stammered at this. However the women was quite helpful, "Oh you already bought! Sorry dear, I might have slipped that." She went ahead pushing the trolley. However, I was still perplexed. I felt like I haven't seen the toffees there when I woke up. "When did we bought that?" Pratik was as confused as me and I instantly knew the question was in vain. Obviously, if we were sleeping, the only person awake was Kiu.
I stepped out of the compartment only to find more surprises waiting for me. Huh? When was there so many Potterhead around? The train was flooding with people wearing Hogwarts outfit. Even the old couple on the next compartment have been replaced with young Ravenclaws. When have these changes occurred? Have I became Aurora? Sleeping for an eternity.
Even the train seemed to have suddenly aged. It looked antic with all the misty atmosphere. But still how? How can all the Potterhead be accumulated at a single place? What's happening?
