Mom: So are you ready for school tomorrow?
Me: What? I don’t start tomorrow. I start Wednesday.
Mom: What are you talking about?
Me: September 1st is when I start,
Mom. Mom: No. Stop being silly. I’m waking you up at six tomorrow.
Me: Why? The train doesn’t leave until eleven.
Mom: What train? Stop being ridiculous. You’re scaring me. Now did you get all your supplies?
Me: No. I have almost everything, but I still need my owl. Will you pick it up for me?
Mom: Cindy, I’m serious. Quit.
Me: Mom. I’m scared. Mom: Oh, honey! Why?
Me:…. What if they put me in Slytherin?
Mom: GO TO YOUR ROOM.
