"Anya, I'm home!" Jenn calls. I hear the familiar sound of the door slamming and the keys turning in the lock. "Hey Jenn," I say, walking out of my room while playing with a loose string on my favorite gray hoodie. "How was work?" "Oh, well, it was work." She sighs. can tell it was a tough day. Even thought I've only been her adoptive daughter for a week, I've grown close to Jenn and always try to make those hard work days better. "Jenn?" I ask without thinking. "How long until school starts?" "About a month, why? Are you the first kid in the history of the world who looks forward to it?" "Yeah, I guess." "Why the sudden interest in school?" "Uh, no reason." I quickly say. I slouch back to my room with just my thoughts for company. The real reason I've been asking about school is my visions. Every night I have the same flash of a year of memories at the school called Hogwarts. And every night, right before I wake up, a voice says in my head 'thirty four days until Hogwarts' or 'thirty two days until Hogwarts' Every day the number gets smaller, like it's counting down the days until the school year at Hogwarts starts. Well, the school year at Hogwarts would start, because Hogwarts doesn't exist, neither does Raven Dumbledore, or Holly, or Harry, or "Raven's" other friend Daphne, or that girl I dream about called Luna. None of it's real. It's all a silly old dream. A start fidgeting with the things on my hoodie. I braid random pieces of my hair. I even poke my pinky toe through the hole in my sock. These things all usually help me get over anxiety, nervousness, stuff like that. But no matter what I do, I can't get this Raven Dumbledore person out of my head. Raven. I look in the mirror, and I realize something, I look exactly like that Raven person in my dreams. Then I remember that in my dreams, I am that Raven. person. I'm still me, but my name is Raven in my dreams. This is all so confusing. I'm about to lie down and get some extra sleep, when Jenn calls me out of my room. "Anya! Come out of your room! We're having dinner out tonight, and we're going to a nice restaurant! Please dress your best." "I don't have any clothes that look nice!" "Not to worry Anya, I went out and bought you some clothes this afternoon!." Jenn hands me a sparkly green dress that looks about my size and tells me to put it on so we can leave for dinner.
I think I'm gonna make a new picture for every chapter. Sorry ik it's short
