"W-what?"
"I know you don't feel the same it's just-"
"I love you too.."
This is my first ever fanfic so please help me to get som...
I was sleeping in my room in the attic when suddenly I heard, "Wake up you useless girl!! Can't you even wake up on time?!" It was Rowena, my aunt. She was a tall woman with long brunette hair, fair skin and dark brown eyes. All of the Carmichaels were always angry at me. At least except Tessa or Tess as I call her when no one's around.
I woke up and shouted back in a loud but polite voice, "Coming in a bit Aunt Rowena..."
I brushed my teeth, combed my hair, took a short shower and looked at the mirror. I was wearing a green T-shirt which belonged to Tess and a black pant that I made out of an old piece of cloth.
I went down the stairs and reached the ground floor. "Aunt Rowena...You needed me??" "Of course I needed you, silly girl!!!" I started cleaning the whole house and finally saw the time. It was 2am. After cleaning the house, I washed the dishes. While doing the laundry I finally realised that today was Tess's birthday!! And that means it is also Tristan's birthday. "Urgh!"
By the time I completed all the chores, it was 4am. I asked Rowena if I could go make something in my room and her reply was, "Yes you can... But what can you even make???" She laughed cruelly at me but I simply went to my room and closed the door with a BANG.
I knew I would get scolded for waking up Tristan by closing a door later but now I needed to focus on making a gift for Tess. She was nearly my height. She had fair skin, short black hair and hazel eyes. She looked so cute and was so sweet to everyone no matter what. She was like my sister. Well she is my cousin sister but still. She was the only person who cared about me.
I continued cutting some random pieces of cloth and cardboard. And finally I was successful in making the green bracelet exactly how I wanted to at around 6:30am. I put it in a small box and wrap it with a paper and coloured it pink. She LOVES pink. I put a small bow on it and wrote-"Hope you like this sweetie. Love yaaaaaa.... If you don't wear it, I will..."
I went downstairs and saw all of the Carmichaels already there. "Finally this girl came..." "Yes uncle... You needed anything?" "Of course I did. Bake a cake with frosting. Now!" "Ok... going.."
I went to the kitchen which was just besides where all of them were. I heard their laughs and wondered if that would ever be me laughing like that.
I decorated the cake and placed it on the table. Aunt ordered me to go to my room or should I say the attic until I was called.
I sat there on my bed which was nothing but some old bed sheets sewed up together by me. There was nothing but only one small window to look outside from. I went and stood in front of it facing outside to look at the scene. I couldn't help but think about the outer world which was not surrounded by these same four walls.
Since the day I can remember, I have never been let outside. I heard the front door close and saw that Aunt, Uncle and Tristan were going out. That means Tess and me are staying alone. "Yesssss!!"
"Stop hissing like a snake Yn Potter! Unless you have transformed into one..!" She emphasised on that word in such a way that made us both burst our laughing.
"Oh yeah shut up..! I have to give you something." "Okie Dokie! What is it darling?" "Close you eyes....Open it after one... 3.....2.....1! Happy Birthday Tesssssssss!!!" "Thank uuuu... You again became a snake bro." "Bla bla bla.... Open it now!!"
As she opened the wrappings of the box carefully, my heartbeat began pounding because of the excitement. I heard a sound do looked back for a second. The moment I saw her, she was staring at the bracelet shocked.
"Close your mouth or else a fly will fly into it..." We again started laughing. "This is so pretty... I love it. Thank you...."
We had the best time we ever had till Aunt and Uncle came back. "Potter come and check the letters." my so called uncle shouted. I wondered what could be in store for me now.
I went and picked the letters and saw each one of them nicely. "Why does this one have my name?" I whispered. "Daddy Yn has got a letter!!"
I frowned at him and suddenly a big hand snatched all the letters from me. "No one would have written to you filthy little freak...!"
"Just give her the letter dad...If it has her name that means someone has written it to her and only he-" "Go to your room Tessa Carmichael.... You are grounded for speaking against your father!!" "But mu-" "Not. Even. A. Single. Word."
I had never heard Aunt Rowena speak like this. I saw Tessa run to her room with tears in her eyes ,which I could tell, she was trying to hold back. Uncle dragged me to the basement, Aunt following him. Tristan also went to his room not caring about his own sister, Tess.
As we entered the basement, Uncle Thaddeus pushed me on the floor with a great force. There something sharp on the floor so I cut my hand while falling. I was confused about what was happening and what was not.
Aunt came and slapped me hard across the face. I guess it left a red mark on my cheek. It burnt too. Both of them started beating me and cursing me at the same time. They again dragged me to the attic but this time Tess and Tristan watching. They threw me inside, took all of my things and locked the door from the outside.
I was covered in cuts and bruises with blood oozing out from random spots. Even the window was locked from the outside. I didn't know what to think at that time.
I just didn't move and law down on the cold wooden floor trying to sleep. But all I could do was cry my heart out. I felt helpless and useless.
A/N: I know that this chapter might not make sense but I wanted you guys to know about her life before going to hogwarts. Just in case you didn't get it, Yn is 10 years old for now. You can get the age afterwards by reading about a birthday in some chapters.
