With a sigh, and a promise to himself never to eat so much and get a giant, bouncy belly like that man, Clifford heaved himself into a carriage.
"Hi!" Aiden nearly shouted, surprised by the sudden entrance of another boy into his otherwise-empty carriage. As always, the second year's voice was squeaky and high-pitched.
"This is weird, huh?" he added, trying to make small talk. To make sure the other boy knew what Aiden was talking about, he nodded towards the two lines forming outside, one of girls and the other of boys.
