I came downstairs to the kitchen and I was greeted to the sight of my sister having toast with peanut butter and blueberry jam, my father was also having the same for breakfast but he had coffee with his toast.

As I was sitting down at the table to have some breakfast before heading off to Hogwarts I looked at my sister and noticed that she was staring at something hungrily, I follow her gaze and saw that she was staring at the cup of coffee in my father's hand, my father also noticed her gaze that was on his coffee with a shake of his head and the release of a sigh he gets back to reading his newspaper.

I chuckled to myself, it seems like my sister was again not allowed to drink coffee by my parents, then again if I was to think back to her fixation I guess you could blame me for her craze since it was me who got her so enthusiastic towards coffee.

If you are wondering how it started, well it was one day when she saw me drinking coffee early one morning, curious, she asked me what it was that I was drinking, and I had to run my loud mouth and say that this was coffee, a drink for adults only.

She asked if she could have a taste of it but wanting to toy around with her, I refused. Then she ran and complained to my mother, who thought that she, Luna, was not old enough to be drinking coffee, and she also thought that I too was not old enough. Man, how I really wanted to shout at that moment, that I was over 30 years old.

Now here I am this morning without even a sip of coffee to wake me up, damg I thought, I should have just let my sister have a taste of the coffee, immediately she would have realized by herself how bitter it is and then things would have been left at it was, but I had to poke at her.

I sat down at the breakfast table and then pick up some toast and also some jam that was on the middle of the table. I sigh when I look at my cup, it is empty and with no coffee I think to myself, I get up from my chair and go to the refrigerator, I take out the milk and bring it back to the table.

For the 100th time I sigh as I slowly pour the milk into my cup, it seems like this will be how my life will be for now on I think silently to myself, I seems like I will not be having any more of the bittersweet liquid that provides the only semblance of pleasure.

My mother came to the table with more toast and asks if we want more, we all refuse the extra toast but she just looked at us and placed more toast in front of us then she sat down at the table. Not arguing with her since we all know we will not win at all me, my father and sister get working on eating our extra.

As my mother was making her own toast she looked over at me with her eyebrow raised and asked me, "Is all your stuff prepared? I do not want to see you running around in a hurry to get prepared."

"I.. amm rad.." I tried to say with a whole toast in my mouth.

My mother lightly hits me on the back of my head as a scowl played on her face, "Finish your food first before you speak, you are getting bread crumbs all over my table."

My sister snickered at me under her breath and feeling as if I have to place my injustice some were I growled at her. She sticks her tongue back at me and before I could return fire, I notice from the corner of my eyesight my mother giving me a stink eye and with that look from my mother all animosity fled away from me and I get back to eating my breakfast.

My father just looks at us bickering and let out a light chuckle then gets back to his newspaper at hand. After I finished my breakfast my mother looked at me and said, "Hurry up, go put on some muggle clothing, we leave in about an hour and make sure to double check that you have everything prepared, I do not want you sending me owls saying you forgot some of your stuff."

I nod my head and go up to my room but before I leave I make sure to get my sister by lightly flicking her on the forehead and before she could get me, I run away.

I get to my room then go to my closet and take out some muggle clothes to put on so that I can fit right in with the muggles before I get on the Hogwarts Express. As I am putting on my clothes Hedwig comes knocking on my window with her beak. I quickly finish putting on my clothes then go to my suitcase and get out Hedwig's birdcage stand after that I open the window for Hedwig, she comes inside and flies around my room once after that she lands on her birdcage stand.

I go to her and gave her some owl food then I asked, "How was your hunt, girl?"

And before you think I am crazy, Hedwig nodded her head to answer my question.

"Alright girl, you will have to go into your cage, we are going back to Hogwarts, okay?" I say to her after Hedwig finishes her owl treat, she goes into her cage that I got out from my suitcase.

I double checked that everything is prepared and that I did not forget anything that I would be needing when I am at Hogwarts and that I did not forget anything.
