"Mum how could you betray us like this and take Rose's side" Sam asked as he looked at his mother in utter disbelief.
"What happened, why are you two whining like small kids" Oliver asked in confusion, as he just returned after parking the car.
"It is nothing Hubby, let's go or else they will be late for the train" Selena said as she pulled Oliver to go inside while she winked at Sam and Lauren who looked at their mother in disbelief.
Evelina also followed her parents without any comments, leaving the boys no other choice than following them quietly while sulking.
They leisurely walked to the wall between platform 9 and 10. Oliver held Evelina's hand, whereas Selena held Lauren's hand and Sam had the speed trolley with him.
They looked around to make sure there were no muggles around and then pushed the speed trolley directly towards the wall and passed through it, followed by others.
They passed through the wall and entered the platform nine-three quarters, which was bustling with wizards and their kids ready for Hogwarts.
Sam pushed the speed trolly towards the engine and handed in the trunks, as Oliver and Selena guided Evelina through the crowd towards the Potters, Weasleys, Scamanders and Malfoys.
In the last stay at burrow, Evelina was well acquainted and comfortable with all of them. She smiled at everyone politely as she greeted them with a curt nod.
"Here you are, all the kids just went in. Evelina, I wish you all the best and hope you enjoy Hogwarts as much as you did in Ilvermorny" Hermione said as she smiled at Evelina fondly.
"Thank you Aunt Hermione and I will" Evelina said as she smiled politely, she truly was comfortable around them and needn't put on a facade around them.
"Rose, dear it will be different form Ilvermorny but the professors will be the same, friendly and warm. If there is any problem reach out to Lauren okay, don't keep it to yourself" Selena said in a motherly tone full of worry and concern.
Evelina nodded and hugged Selena in a reassuring way. After bidding everyone goodbye, Lauren and Evelina boarded the train as well.
Evelina walked through the compartments and reached the last compartment. She pushed open the door thinking it to be empty but it was already occupied.
"Sorry for the disturbance" Evelina said in an apologetic tone and was about to close the door. Suddenly someone from the compartment called out her name.
"Look at you, don't tell me you forgot us in just one night" Roxanne asked as she looked at Evelina in disbelief.
"If given a chance she will forgot me and Sam in just few hours, if she forgot you then that is no big deal" Lauren said as he looked at Evelina in a sulky way.
"Wow, what happened that you are sulking already" Fred asked as he looked at Lauren and then at Evelina in a questioning way.
The latter shrugged casually and went inside the compartment, she then sat down in the corner, in between the window and Alice.
"She made me suffer from early in the morning and even Mum called me dumb" Lauren said as he sulkily took a seat beside Fred.
"What did she do to make you suffer" Lorcan asked as he looked at Lauren in surprise, as far as he knew Lauren was a big prankster who had the ability to trouble everyone but this was the first time he heard someone could make him suffer.
"She did not help me move even a small paper in the morning, I did all the packing since morning while she was leisurely sipping on her milk tea. She even threatened me to leave me behind and come by cab if I did not finish my packing quickly" Lauren said as he sulked pitifully.
