CHAPTER 3 ✨
Revelation on Platform 9 3/4 ❾¾ 🎞
____________________________________________________
Jay-Jay's POV:
Finally after four whole months its the day we go to Hogwarts. My dream since looking at its pics only, will finally come true, getting to see it by my own eyes.
I'm so so excited and I can see the same excitement in jani's eye.
We finished our primary school by June, and our kuyas also came back on last week of June with lots of candies and stories of their new adventure in Hogwarts.
Jani as always read all the books beforehand. I also tried reading some interesting books like DADA, Hogwarts: A History and some more in our two months break.
We finally reached the King's Cross station. I know its a muggle station but our train will arrive in a secret station of which muggles have no idea.
Our train will arrive at 9 3/4 platform a secret platform between 9th and 10th one. Its so cool.
As soon as we arrived infront of the barrier between 9th and 10th platform, Percy ran into it and vanished into the secret platform. Then it was Aries' turn but he looked at us and gestured "you both first".
I looked and Jani and ran into the barrier and she followed me. Soon Aries, mama and papa all three arrived behind us.
I looked over at the Hogwarts express standing on the track. It looked magnificent as ever.
Percy was already entering the coach as if he owns it and called out to us to follow him. We immediately followed him as it will be our first time travelling the train, I didn't wanted to be left behind.
We arranged our trunks on the rack and stepped out to greet our parents and Percy wanted to meet his friends so he went off to find them. Aries stayed behind with us as if he was trying to make us feel included.
There was still one hour left for train to leave. I know we came very early but we had to because we didn't know how much traffic we would have to face just to reach here.
We started exploring around for sometime, because magical world always fascinated us.
Then suddenly my eyes caught something or someone. It was a shade of bright red hairs, same as Lily, so out of curiosity to see who it was I followed that person.
I didn't know whether the others were behind me. Then that person turned and I was stunned to see who it was.
Of course it was LILY EVANS. I was frozen to my spot. I felt jani beside me asking,
"What happened Jay-jay?", a bit loudly because of the noise around us.
Then she followed my line of sight and froze. And Lily also looked over us I don't know whether she heard us or sensed us but she froze too after looking at us.
We recovered from the initial shock of seeing each other here and crashed into each other.
Now it felt like Hogwarts was something I would never regret going to because Lily was the person I never wanted to leave behind but had to because of statue of secrecy, but now she was standing here in our arms.
We pulled away and started to fire questions to each other,
"HOW?', "SINCE WHEN?", "WHY?", "WHAT?"
We couldn't even finish our questions. Then, Jani, ever the calm one said,
"Calm down guys. First breath then do the interrogation."
We shut our mouths, took a long breath and just stared each other eyes wide with excitement and mouth open with shock.
"Good, now Lily tell us how come you are here, I thought you were going to some prestigious school." Jani continued.
"Yeah I'm going to a prestigious school which is Hogwarts. A witch came to my house on my 11th birthday and told us things about magical world. About what it is and how I'm a witch even when my parents our not?"
Lily said all in one breath.
Then, I asked,
"Is Petunia also going to Hogwarts with you?"
I know its a unexpected question but I don't really like her, she is annoying. I also think she isn't going otherwise kuya would have told us about her coming to Hogwarts as she is 2 years older than Lily.
Jani gave me a sharp glare, but I just shrugged that said "just asking, chill".
"No she isn't." I sighed a breath of relief at that.
"Thank god", muttered a voice beside Lily.
It was Severus, Lily's friend he never spoke to anyone beside her. I found him weird but I don't really care unless he does something that could harm us.
"Wow, you are a wizard too. How?" I asked excitedly.
"Yes, I am. My mother is a witch." He replied in a flat tone.
I nodded and whispered, "It must be nice to have a witch at home."
He looked away. Lily sensed the tension, and interrupted,
"Now guys, its your turn to answer. How? When? Are your parents wizards too? Are your brothers?"
"No and yes." Jani answered shortly.
"We found out when Kuya Percy turned 11. A witch came and told us about wizarding world and school. Then, Kuya Aries also received a letter then on our 11th birthday we too received our letters of acceptance in Hogwarts." I explained.
"It must be nice to have siblings who are wizards too." said a cold annoying voice.
It was Petunia.
I looked at her and replied,
"Yeah its very nice to have wizard elder siblings. They sent us pictures of Hogwarts and told everything they knew about it so we have a idea about the place we are going to, and do not feel out of place...." I started speaking excitedly not catching the tension between Lily and her.
"Lets go, shall we? Mom and dad must be searching for us. Its almost time." Jani cut me off.
I looked and my watch it was 10:45, train will leave in 15 minutes.
"Yeah, lets go say bye to mom and dad, afterall we will not see them for months." I replied turning to walk off. Then something clicked,
"Hey Lily, can we sit together in the train?" I asked turning towards her.
"Ofc, is that something to ask." She replied.
"See you mate." Jani added.
And we started searching for our parents and brothers. Soon we find them and told them everything about finding Lily and also Severus at the station and about them attending Hogwarts with us.
"Its nice, atleast you will have a familiar face in your classes." Mama said.
"Only if they are in the same house will they see each other in every class mama." Percy corrected her.
"And if not, then they will have atleast one class together."
Aries added rolling his eyes at percy, who obviously said that to look like a smart person.
Then we hugged our parents and bid our goodbyes to them and walked towards the train.
Percy entered the train followed by Aries then Jani and me.
I stepped into the train at the last and turned to see Mama and Papa. Mama's eyes were glistening with tears as now, any of her children will not be at home making noise and chaos.
I waved bye to them and they waved back, yelling over the voices of other parents,
"Bye kids, Love you."
"Be safe."
"Happy Journey."
"Don't finish your food in the first hour of the journey." Papa added teasingly.
I rolled my eyes at that, as I knew it was directed at me.
Then, the train started moving and our parents vanished with the station.
I was leaving behind my normal life and starting on with my magical life. But with some familiar faces as a reminder for me, of who I am, and what I can be.
