A loud siren noise blared through the room. βUghhh! 5 more minutes!!!β, Addison grunted. βRia, can you get that?β, Addison said. Soteria was lying at the foot of her bed in the form of a black cat. She just turned away and licked her paw. βFine.β, Addison said. She sat up and her palm landed on the snooze button. She rolled off the bed and accidentally hit her head on the nightstand. She winced in pain, rubbing her head. Addison heard footsteps coming up the stairs. βAddyyy! Breakfast time!!β, someone said in a sing-songy voice. Addy looked at Ria. βWhere is HER snooze button! It's 6 am! It should be forbidden to wake up this earlyβ, she thought. βComing Aunt Gemma!β, she shouted. She quickly got dressed and rushed downstairs.
Gemmaline turned to Addy as she walked downstairs. βI made your favorite! Enchantaberry Waffles!β, she said. βWhatβs the occasion?β, Addy said, as she put a waffle in her mouth.
βYour first day of high school silly!β, Gemma said in a joyful voice. Addy slumped into a chair. βWas that today?β, she said in a muffled voice. βC,mon Addy. I know you are scared but-β, Gemma said, but was interrupted. βNo, I'm not scared. Iβm just... not a people person, ya know?β. βNot a people person, huh? What happened to the Addy that used to run around with other kids at the playground pretending to cast spells?β, Gemma said in a smug voice. βOh, sheβs still there. Just deep, deep, deep, deep, DEEEEPPP down.β, Addy replied. βJust- promise me youβll at least TRY to have a good dayβ, Gemma said. βOk, fine. I'll try.β, Addy said. βThank you.β, Gemma said, as she kissed Addison on the head. Addison smoothed her hair out and walked towards the door. She slumped her bag onto her shoulder and unlocked the door. βBye Aunt Gemmaβ. Gemma blew a kiss as Addy walked out the door.
Addison took a deep breath and headed towards the bus stop. She sat on the bench and looked down both ways of the cobblestone road. She pulled out her magic scroll. She started swiping through old pictures of her as a kid. One picture caught her attention. It was a picture of her holding her first wand. It was a basic starter wand, with a safety strap. βWas I really that danger-prone?β, she thought. The next photo was one of her dangling in the air, hanging from her wand. βNevermindβ, she thought.
