The Chamber of Secrets Through Another's Eyes

Chapter 4.5: Our Story

My name is Aura Malfoy.

My name is Morana Drax.

My name is Xenia Fairchild.

My name is Tess Booker.

And we know.

Believe me, we do.

We know that you probably won't get too into this. And that's okay.

It's slow. It almost serves no purpose.

Just...not to us.

No. Definitely not. I would read this every day if I needed to.

But that's just because...this is our story.

It's long...and it's complicated.

About how we're brave. And how we're reckless. And believe me, they both happen a LOT.

About how we're cunning. And how we're leaders.

About how we're creative. And how we're witty.

And how we're loyal. And how we're hardworking.

This is a story about four girls. Four teenage girls going through many things in their life.

Love... Heartbreak...

Bullying... Friendship...

How to save others... And how to save yourself...

You don't have to read our story.

Or read every single word.

But this story is ours.

And it's important to US.

I love telling stories. And I like bragging to my kids about how cool I was as a child.

I love...I love telling people...how I'm a survivor. And how I made it out alive and that they can too.

I love teaching others how to be responsible. And how to care. And how to care for those who you might not even LIKE.

I like telling people about my daily life. And what they can learn from others' mistakes. And hopefully...their life...turns out better...

Don't get me wrong.

Our lives are great.

You know...for the most part.

But remember...we're just normal people.

We weren't the best at this when we were younger.

But we definitely improve.

We live our lives, and we tell it like we know it.

But in the mindset of our twelve year old selves.

So I just want to say thank you.

Thank you for reading our journey. Even if it's not every piece.

Thank you for taking the time to know that...we're not perfect.

And most of all...thank you for sticking by our sides. Even if you were mad at us because we were stupid teenage girls.

My name is Aura Malfoy. I was sorted into Gryffindor much to my parents dismay. I'm hated by my father and twin brother. And this is my story.

My name is Morana Drax. I was sorted into Slytherin like my family before me. My mother and sister went to Azkaban, the wizard prison, when I was young. And this is my story.

My name is Xenia Fairchild. I was sorted into Ravenclaw. I never felt like I belonged. And I found out why. Because THIS is my story.

My name is Tess Booker. I was sorted into Hufflepuff. I live in a strict Catholic home. I'm not always liked by those I have to work with. But this...this is my story. And I wouldn't have it any other way.
