Love and Black Magic

Chapter six: The Letter

Little Black had hardly slept at all, she had spent the night thinking about the world of possibilities that were now in her hands. She felt magical even when she had never done magic with a wand, she felt powerful and valuable, she already wanted to start using her powers.

She got out of bed, thought she had barely slept for about two hours, but the adrenaline and enthusiasm took away her sleep, it was as if she now lived flooded in her thoughts, she was sure that she had never been so surprised and amazed with any news like with which they had just given her yesterday.

Breakfast passed quietly, her parents did not speak to her, but she was the one who started asking the questions she had thought all night.

"When can I do magic?" She asked neither of them in particular.

"When you go to school," Druella replied without giving any details.

"What school? I will finally go to school!" The girl answered with joy. Druella didn't answer anything, apparently she didn't want to give more explanations of what she had already said. "Will I have a wand?"

"Yes," said Druella, unable to avoid a smile on her face. Calynn dedicated herself to making some leaps of joy while her parents watched her without any expression.

"Mom, lend me your wand, show me something please," Little Black pleaded as she touched her mother's hand insistently, she just moved it a little disgustedly.

"No, later, you'll learn," she said angrily. "Now finish breakfast"

The girl was disappointed a little after the response that her mother had given her until she simply continued with the spoonfuls of her cereal, she had no alternative, just wait, although she did not understand exactly why she should do it, she wanted to develop her powers from an early age.

Once she finished breakfast, she quickly got up from the table and went to the door to go out to the garden, she was impatient to tell Lily and Severus that event, she knew they would know something about magic, at last after all, she was listening to them talk about magic. She was about to leave when her mother's arm stopped her.

"Where are you going?" the woman questioned with certain mockery in the voice. Calynn was going to talk when her father did it from the kitchen table.

"Druella, my dear," the man began dragging the words, as he almost never spoke, "let her go to see her friends, I am sure she will want to discover more about the magical world with them."

"It's fine, but only for a while." Druella released her daughter with some reproach. "But come back in time for the meal, I will not wait for you again like a few days ago," she finished while the girl only responded with a nod.

"Thank you!" Calynn snapped before leaving her home, closing the door behind her.

"If you keep her from doing what she likes, she'll start to suspect and we don't want that. The last thing we need is for a Muggle daughter to know about our plans, right?" Cygnus commented when the girl was gone.

"I know, that's why we'll have to start now, soon some of them will know what we want to do and they will make things more complicated," Druella finished with some anger before getting up from the table.

Calynn walked quickly to that majestic tree where she knew she could find some of her friends until in the background she could glimpse the redhead who greeted her with a smile. The girl was carrying an open envelope and the brightness of her eyes announced that it was good news. Calynn was about to arrive when she realized that she had forgotten that her friend's birthday was that same day, she was totally blamed for forgetting it.
