"[B]Oh Nessie, it is so good to see you again[/B]."Alyssa hugged her best friend glad that she was seeing her again. Then Nessie introduced her to another boy whom Nessie said came from Salem.
"Hi Oakey, my name's Lyssie. You wouldn't by any chance have attended the school in Salem did you? I spent my first year there. The reason I'm saying that is you look familiar. Oh maybe it's because I saw you on the platform earlier." Alyssa said sticking out her hand to shake his.
[Spoiler="Laura"]
"
Oh Hi Laura, nice to meet you. You met Claudia? That's cool. Unfortunately, she won't be attending Hogwarts after all. We've switched places again and she'll be going back to Salem. But I hope that I can be your friend too." Alyssa said smiling at Laura
Alyssa was shocked when she heard what had happened. She had been told there things had been going on with her friends back in England but she didn't think that it was that bad. "
Oh Minnie, I'm so sorry to hear that and that you had to rehash the experience all over with me. Well I'm glad you told me. If you want I can tell my Dad what is going on too. He's got friends in lots of places and they can also keep an eye on your family and your Mom for you." Alyssa then could sense that Minnie was reliving the moments again as she started to turn pale, so when she asked to be excused, she let her leave making it a point to talk with her again later when she was feeling better.
Alyssa laughed when Lana reminded her how she had run away from her back in Diagon Alley."
Oh that's okay. I'm sure that I must have looked like some scary nagging person trying to tell you what you can and can't do. Hi again Laura. Don't worry about school. I'm sure you'll do fine and if you need any help, you can always look me up. I know that you're disappointed that Aaron and I broke up. It's really hard to explain but I just want you to know that we're still friends and Aaron is still the funny guy that he is. So I promise that I haven't broken his heart and that he is feeling miserable right now. Believe me when you see him, you won't even know that we even were sad at one point."
