Feel free to tell me what you think of the story so far, I am always open to constructive criticism. I hope you enjoy the story!

Two days had passed since my awakening and the doctors declared that I was perfectly healthy and free to leave. I was over the moon that I would be able to leave, but the people that visited me seemed to be worried. The only problem with leaving is that I had nowhere to go. Sure I had been offered a place to stay from a sweet girl named Poppy but I felt bad that I couldn't remember anything from before. I felt bad that I couldn't remember my best friend.

Despite being able to leave I stayed an extra day hoping I could find a solution on where to go. It seemed as though luck was on my side because late afternoon I received a letter from someone named Clarisse, who was supposedly an old family friend and graciously invited me to stay with her.

Poppy came almost right after I read the letter and I sighed not wanting to hurt her feelings by leaving her. Ominis, Poppy, and I had definitely bonded over my time at St. Mungos but I didn't feel comfortable being with them alone due to the gap in my memories. They knew more about my recent life than I knew about them. Shaking my thoughts away I told Poppy that I would be moving in with Clarisse since she was a family friend, and that I would see her at school. Without waiting for an answer I began talking once again.

"Oh, and Poppy. If you don't mind can you bring my trunk here. Clarisse said that I'll be moving there until I come of age. Apparently my God-parents own the estate I'm going to! Isn't this exciting? I'm going to meet so much of my family!" I squealed with joy for the first time in what felt like ages, and was happy to see a small smile appearing on Poppy's face as well.
"That sounds wonderful! And I'll bring your trunks over right now." She said smiling sweetly before hugging me lightly and apparating away.

Nurse Beatrice came up to me handing me a deep blue dress. I grabbed the dress politely and excused myself to change behind the curtain. It was a pretty dress, with a collar covering my neck, the length reaching just below my knees. There was a built in corset that I tied somewhat loosely leaving more than enough space to breath.

I pulled the curtain to the side quickly and sat on the side of the bed putting on some boots that ended just above my ankle.

I got up off the bed and stretched, my back popping through every breath I took. I sat there feeling depressed for no apparent reason, my mind thinking about something I apparently couldn't comprehend. Tears were falling down my face and I hadn't noticed a nurse walking up to me. I could feel a tap on my shoulder and I looked up seeing Nurse Beatrice, who was quickly becoming my favorite nurse.

She looked at me concerned for a second, opening her mouth to say something before quickly closing it gently placing a basket in my lap. I looked into the small basket seeing a numerous amount of different colored potions labeled with different days of the week.

"You will be taking one option each day. Make sure you are checking the day of the week on the vial before drinking it. It is important that you take them on the correct day." She looked at me with a caring smile hugging me, tucking some loose strands of hair behind my ear.
"Please take care of yourself." She whispered it into my ear softly.

As I processed what she said I couldn't help but feel the sense of familiarity. As if someone had told me that before, but I ignored the feeling and nodded watching her walk away.

1 hour later I heard a faint pop from in front of me and I sat up from the bed.
"Hi Poppy." She turned around smiling at me setting the trunk down.
"Hey, sorry I took so long. I was checking around the house making sure you wouldn't leave anything. Please right to me while you're away." She looked at me pleadingly.

"Of course Poppy." I nodded.

We hugged goodbye and I stepped towards the fireplace after she had left.

Grabbing the green powder from the bowl I said my destination aloud.

"Lestrange Manor!"
