Zoya drank a sip of her tea while reading the newspaper. It was May 1st 2006. Zoya couldn't remember why this day was so special to her. It was another day of work. Being a journalist was tough. She hadn't talked to her best friend in weeks.
Soon, she let it out of her mind, grabbed her bag and reached out for her keys. She was working on her newest story. She was wearing a turtleneck black and white stripped top with a aquamarine skirt. Her black glasses looked perfect on her face and her hair tied up in a messy bun.
She put her house keys in her bag and reached out for the doorknob. Before she could open the door, it opened itself. She frowned. "Sorry to barge in Ms. Mills..." Said an old woman as tall as zoya wearing green robes and a pointy hat. "Excuse me, but who are you??" She asked. "I am Professor McGonagal of course." The woman said. Zoya looked at her unbelievingly. McGonagal took her wand out,"wingardium Leviosa" the mug on the table floated in the air. "If you remember, you and your best friend Mrs.  Came to Hogwarts in your 6th year but then vanished after the yule ball because of a wishing star.." McGonagal said. Zoya's eyes widened. "That was a dream.." She said. "And did the wishing star say anything like 'done' or complete'??"
"Well, yes...." McGonagal smiled at Zoya. "So now what??" She asked leading the old lady towards the living room. "Now, I am here to ask you if you would like to be our defence against the dark arts teacher."
"Me?? Why me?"
"Because I know that you know!"
"But..."
"Think about it and let me know.."
"But how??"
"I'll meet you in diagon ally at 3:00 in the tea shop tomorrow"
Zoya didn't answer. Without another word, McGonagal apparated from there leaving Zoya alone. There were only 2 things she had to do now.
1) call her best friend
2) visit diagon ally
