Natalie’s POV
While I’m eating breakfast Professor Dumbledore walks up to the podium and asks for everyone’s attention.
“Good morning everyone. I hope your first few days at Hogwarts this year has gone well. Today I have some good news. We have a new transfer student. Her name is Wilma Freeman and she will be in second year. Mr. Baker, could you please escort Wilma into the room for the sorting?”
“Of course Professor Dumbledore.” says Mr. Baker.
Mr. Baker escorts who I assume is Wilma into the Great Hall. She has fiery red hair that goes down to her waist. Her face is sprinkled with some freckles across her cheeks and she has bright light brown eyes.
“Wilma, could you please go sit down on the stool over there so we can sort you into one of the four houses?” asks Professor Dumbledore.
Wilma goes over and sits on the stool and Professor McGonagall puts the Sorting Hat on her head. After at least a minute the hat yells,
“RAVENCLAW!”
Well, I guess I have a new roommate. I hope she’s nice, maybe I can make a new friend.
Wilma walks over to the Ravenclaw table and sits down across from me. I smile at her but she doesn’t return the smile. Weird. Maybe she’s just nervous I guess. Professor McGonagall puts the stool away and goes back to her seat.
“Well, I hope that everyone is nice to Wilma and makes her feel at home. Everyone finish up your breakfasts and go to classes, this is not an excuse to be late.” says Professor Dumbledore.
Everyone gets back to eating their breakfasts. I decide to introduce myself.
“Hello, Wilma. My name is Natalie. I’m in second year too so if you need any help with directions or have any questions you can ask me.” I say.
“Hello.” she says quietly looking like she didn’t even want to talk to me.
The other Ravenclaws soon introduce themselves. Wilma continues to look down at her breakfast partly ignoring us. Okay...we were just trying to be friendly. Either she’s still nervous or she doesn’t want to make any friends. I guess i’ll try talking to her again later. I quickly finish my breakfast since there’s isn’t much time left before class begins.
“Want us to show you where our first class is?” asks Zoey.
“Sure.” she says still looking at the ground.
“Okay, let’s go.” I say.
She follows us and soon I meet up with Michelle.
“Hey, Michelle. What’s up?” I ask as she walks over.
“Nothing much.” replies Michelle.
“This is Wilma.” says Zoey. “Wilma, this is Michelle, second year Slytherin.”
“Hi.” she says.
“Hi, nice to meet you Wilma.” says Michelle.
Soon we arrive at the classroom in the dungeons. We have potions first period. I partner up with Michelle as usual and Wilma partners up with Zoey.
“Hello, class. Today we will be learning how to make the Swelling Solution. Gather up your ingredients and start working. The potion will be on page 12. Remember, if you don’t get this right you’re going to have to write an essay on where you went wrong.”
Michelle and I gather up some ingredients and go back to our table.
“He seems mad today.” says Michelle as she puts in pufferfish eyes.
