Josie might like her space. Maybe she'd feel less pressure and be able to concentrate better. Yeah.
When she heard the younger girl sigh, Ella glanced back over and tilted her head. Still no luck? ..Oh. "No big deal, yeah? The Charm is...it's um..." It was right on the tip of her tongue and the Head Girl snapped her fingers, hoping to spark a memory. "It's...Oh! It's Scourgify." Yup, that one.
'SCOURGIFY! THAT WAS IT!'
Josette nodded her head as her memory had been reminded of the charm. She repeated it herself to get the word in her mind,
"Scourgify.." Before saying it again she lifted her wand pointing it at the table again. Focusing and take a deep breath, she waved her arm slowly as she had seen Ella do earlier.
"Scourgify.." She quickly closed her eyes afraid that she might not have done it right for a moment or two. When she slowly peaked one of her eyes open, she gasped before both of her eyes were open to see that the spilled flour on the table had vanished right before she eyes!
Not able to believe what she'd just done, she made her way towards the table and ran her fingers over the smooth surface. It really was gone! Still unable to to believe it herself, her mouth dropped as she looked over at Ella. Josette had successfully done the charm! She quickly whipped her head around to look at the table again just in case her mind wasn't playing tricks on her. It wasn't! The flour was really gone & the charm really worked! She definitely had to keep that charm handy!
