First a quick stop at the magic menagerie, cat food for my cat.
Nothing really magical about that just a stop at the only magic pet store that sells ordinary pet stuff.
Next up Slug'n'Jibbers Cornerstore.
Bread, bologna, butter and everything else you'll need for a day to day life.
Then finally back home.
My apartment was next to gringots down a small alleyway through a side door.
Then upstairs and second right-hand door in the hallway.
Just a small two room apartment.
Big enough for me and my cat.
Nothing magical about her either.
I found her wounded on the sidewalk one day and brought her home to treat her until she was healthy enough to be released.
But she didn't want to leave, so she stayed with me.
When I came through the door she greeted me loudly and I petted her while she rubbed against my legs, then I strolled into the bedroom and changed into a more comfortable outfit.
Afterwards I went into the Kitchen and made mine and my cats dinner.
For me a sandwich and for her half a can of tuna wet food.
I sat down on my couch and with a swish of my wand the TV turned on.
I never really payed attention to it, I just liked the noise.
After I finished my sandwich I looked over to the cat which was still eating.
I would clean that tomorrow I thought and stood up to walk over in my bedroom to fall down on my bed and immediately drove off to sleep.

I was awoken by a pretty loud knocking on my window.
I glanced over to my alarm, another handy muggle gadget, only quarter to twelve.
Who would send me shit at this hour?
I looked over to the window.
A Barn owl pecked at the glass to get my attention which it got.
When it saw I noticed it, it stopped  knocking and instead stared intensively in my eyes.
Creepy. Like it stared right in my soul.
I grabed some owl treats of my nightstand and opened the window with a wink of my wand.
The Owl flew in and grabed the treats, then landed on my bed and stuck out its leg.
On there was a parchment scroll with a seal I didn't remember seeing before.
While I untied the scroll, the owl ate the treats and as soon as its leg was free, the owl flew back out the window.
Swish with the wand and the window closed and the scroll unscrolled.

-Hello y/n,
I was informed you wanted to visit my reservoir for your holidays.
I must tell you though that if you do you'll have to take part in caring for the beasts here.
That includes cleaning up behind them and treating any illnesses or injuries.
If that isn't a problem a second owl will deliver a portkey on Friday.
Hopefully soon,
C.W.-

C.W.?
Who could've that been?
Oh, right the caretaker in Romania probably.
What would he looked like?
As I thought about that I sat back down on my bed and stared at the scroll.
Was it even a he?
The Handwriting was so neat and clean.
My boss didn't say anything gender specific.
Just a caretaker that'll help me to get to Romania.
The Owl was already gone, so I couldn't answer right away
I dicided not to ponder about it for too long and instead went back to sleep since it was only around midnight.
I drove of into a restless sleep.

I dreamed I was surrounded by fire.
N

owhere to run or hide before the flames.
Everywhere I looked was orange and red flames, too hot to run through.
I felt like the heat would suffocate me and I gasped for air stretching out my arm in a last attempt to grab on to something for help.


C.W.? As it isn't obvious who that is xD
