"I didn't get them- another one?!"

Jillianna's POV

Mum just went out to get a house-elf!! I'm super excited because I've never known one before, I can't wait to dress it up, she's going to look so adorable!

It's summer right now, and I've been writing to all my friends, Ron, Dean, Seamus, Neville, Lavender, Parvati, and a couple others, and they've all responded as well.

Harry hasn't, and I have no clue why.

I don't need to write to Hermione since she lives next to me, and I usually spend most of my days at her house, it's really fun.

I persuaded my mum and dad to get the house-elf because I heard they're usually treated horribly, and I wanted to save one.

"I'm home!" My mum yelled. I squealed and ran down the stairs.

Standing in the doorway was my mum and a scared looking house-elf behind her. My mum walked inside with the elf and closed the door.

I ran to the elf and crouched down. "Hi!! I'm Jillianna, what's your name??" I grinned, holding out my hand to shake.

The elf looked wide eye at my hand and then burst out into tears.

"What?! What's wrong??" I pulled my hand away, feeling a bit uncomfortable.

"She's not used to being talked like that Jillianna, people always order the elves around." My father explained.

"That's not very nice." I frowned.

"Me names Dippy miss, " the elf said,
wiping her eyes.

"Well Dippy, just call me Jilly please, and you're a girl, right??" I asked.

She nodded at me. My mum walked up to the elf and gave her some clothes. "You can still be with us if you want to, but know that your free, so you don't have to stay here."

"Dippy would like to stay here and work," Dippy's eyes were watery.

My mother gave the elf proper clothes, and she changed from her dirty rag she was wearing.

"We will also pay you fifteen Galleons a day." My father told her.

Dippy's eyes widened. "Oh no sir!! Dippy does not need any paying!!"

Dippy tried to persuade my father, but he disagreed "If you insist, but please sir Dippy not needing that much money, please low it-"

"Alright, how about ten??" My father negotiated.

"Five??" Dippy asked. My father sighed and agreed.

"Dippy, can you come to help me with something please??" I asked her. She smiled at me and nodded.

"Miss Jilly doesn't have to be so nice to Dippy," the elf followed me up the stairs.

"I want to, everyone deserves kindness," I smiled warmly. "Except maybe Draco," I mumbled quietly to myself.

Once we got into my room, I asked her to help me with some of my school work, which she gladly explained to me.
