Four Times the Charm

7- The Decision

Milly's POV:

I didn't know what to do with myself. I was to happy! All I could do was try and see if I could do magic before I had a wand, help Alexander set the grage, or text Caitlyn and Mikalya. It was obvious what I was going to chose. (Magic, duh!) I stood up and walked over to my bookcase and got one of my Harry Potter books of of my shelf. I flipped through the pages and found a relatively easy (and potentially harmless) spell. I pointed to my teddy bear and yelled "Accio!" At first nothing happened then it came a few inches forward then I remembered.... wizards and witches are not aloud to do magic outside of Hogwarts. I saw that my mom had pulled into the driveway and had started unloading tons of groceries.

"Mom, mom! Guess what??" I said.

"What?" She said.

I had handed her the letter. Once she had finished reading it she started laughing.

"What? Some funny joke at work today?"

" No, no," she said wiping the tears out of her eyes " Which one of your friends sent you this, this letter this is hysterical!" She said.

I looked at her like she had gummie worms sprouting from her ears.

"Its not a joke. This is real! Emma, Caitlyn, And Mikayla Got them too! Its like Hogwarts, you know? Of course you know! Its Harry Potter, you love that stuff!" I said firmly.

"Sure I love that stuff, but I love it because its fiction! Hogwarts isn't real and neither is Harry or Ron or Hermione. You need to sort out what is real and what is fiction sweetheart." She said. She honestly didn't believe in her own daughter. She thought that I was lying! This was absurd!

" No, look at that writing, no one can write that perfectly! This is real magic!" I said. " Look," She said, " Im not sending you to London and have you end up all alone and have most of your money wasted on airfare!" She said. " No problem. Someone can pick me up from Hogwarts, I need to reply that I'm going to be attending their school don't I? I can just ask if someone can pick me up. And all of my friends are going! Please Mom! Ill help remove Alexander's stuff from the garage when he is done! Please believe me!" I looked into her eyes. She finally gave in. " Ugh fine! You need to keep me udated one EVERYTHING you are doing all the time anywhere." I looked at her "Are- are you serious? Are you letting me go?"

"Yes"

" OH MY GOD THANK YOU SO MUCH" I ran around the counter and gave her a bear hug. "Oh my god you don't know what this means to me! THANK YOU!" I started crying tears of joy. " I need to go write my letter back! Thank you and I love you!"

I ran upstairs and grabbed my pen and a fancy piece of paper and started writing out my letter to Hogwarts.
