Maitea groggily woke up to the smell of bacon and opened her eyes to see her personal house elf Pepper by the side of her bed holding a tray of her favourite breakfast of fried eggs and bacon with two pieces of buttered toast, orange juice, and a chocolate chip cupcake with chocolate icing

" Good morning Pepper ... Breakfast smells great as always " Maitea smiled sleepily " You're most welcome young Mistress Maitea !! " Pepper said happily " Pepper is most happy to be serving the family of the noble and ancient house of Swanlake "

Maitea merely smiled a bit and rolled her eyes before she began eating. Once finished eating she set the tray with the empty plate and cup on the bed, hugged Pepper, then went to her closet to get a light purple dress, tights, and her black Mary Jane shoes and went into her bathroom to change

Once changed, Maitea happily skipped downstairs to find her parents and her younger sister in the living room just as an owl flew in and dropped a letter in Maitea's hands

A letter adressed to her

" Is this what I think it is ? " Maitea asked and eagerly opened up the letter

Maitea promptly squealed and started dancing around the living room " I'm going to Hogwarts, I'm going to Hogwarts !! "

" Hey where's my letter ? " Carlita whined crossing her arms with a pout, her brown hair slowly transitioning into a bright green, glaring at the owl with her now golden eyes

" Now Carlita we've been over this, you don't get your letter until your 11th birthday " Maitea's father explained to her 7 year old sister gently

" But it's not fair Daddy I'll have to wait forever until then ... "

Maitea sighed and sat back down on the couch and gave her little sister a hug " Don't be upset baby sister, I'll write almost every week okay ? " she said

" ... Okay ... "

Maitea smiled

" We'll go to Diagon Alley during the summer to get your supplies and wand, okay dear ? " her mom asked

Maitea beamed happily at her parents and sister " I can't wait !! "
