Soleil Snape

Chapter 1

Soleil (Suh-lay)

It was a rainy morning in July. I knew that later in the day it'll get sunny. I woke got up from my bed and started to make it. I go downstairs to the kitchen where my father was, sitting on our table drinking coffee. We live in a two story house with three bedrooms, the kitchen and living room connect. Lots of sunlight shines through.

"Goodmorning Soleil," my dad says not looking up from his newspaper.

"Goodmorning," I say back while pouring my self a bowl of cereal. Cinnamon Toast Crunch is my favorite. I just love the smell of cinnamon as well. "Has the mail got here yet?" I say to my dad. Hogwarts letters are coming in soon and I want to know if I got in. It'd be a shame if I didn't since my own father works there.

"Yes it came this morning." My dad, the tone of his voice changing. He looked up at me from his newspaper, he then folded it into a small square. I was getting nervous, he knew how much i've always wanted to go. He smiled at me before saying, "Congratulations Soleil," while handing me my letter. We both got up and screamed with excitement. I was so happy and I know my dad was happy for me too. I ran up to hug him. This has always been my dream and it's finally coming true. I grab the letter and read over it just in case.
