First Week

I’m Aeris.
I’m six.
I live in the Hufflepuff dormitory now. The lights are soft and the chairs are round. It’s calm and that’s nice.

Girls talk a lot here. I don’t, I listen.
The castle has sounds, too. Moving stairs, whispering paintings, wind in the walls.
I think it says "you’ll be fine" if you listen long enough. I miss my home sometimes.

I brought my skateboard to school. I don’t ride it inside, I just keep it close.
At night, I rest my hand on it before I fall asleep. It's relaxing me.

Charms is nice, but loud and crowded.
Divination is lovely, but I don't understand any.
Potions is quiet and close and still. Like me.

I don’t have friends yet. But I don’t feel alone.
Nighttime my board listens, daytime my potion bubbles softly..
