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.
