It was a pleasant and busy day on London's street, pleasant for the people who were enjoying the day and weather in London and busy for the people who were rushing for their work at King's Cross station. Usually, King's Cross station doesn't have any crowd but today was a different story. The people who travel from King's Cross station on a daily based had a puzzled look. It was crowded today, why the station was crowded? Many people thought. They can see people rushing with their kids and their trunks happily, but little did they know it was September 1. A happy and proud day for many parents, oops Many wizardry parents were dropping their kids at platform 9/3 quarter so they can start their journey for HOGWARTS School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Parents were delighted when their kids got the letter, all kids with their parents and luggage were passing the barrier between platforms 9 and 10 which holds the secret entrance to the magical platform 9/3 quarter that muggles can't see.
But a little far away a girl was standing with her trunks and her letter. Who was watching everyone passing the barrier? She was standing there, battling to herself whether to go or not. It was always her dream to go to Hogwarts when all her friends used to talk about the adventure that happens, the history of Hogwarts, the HOGWARTS battle, the boy who lived, the dark lord, about the golden trio.
"Need help miss ?" A masculine voice called from behind which startled her for a minute. She swiftly turned around to see tall, thin, and gangling, with freckles, big hands, and a long nose with red hair.
"U-ug wh-what?" She asked. Taking two-step back for maintaining a good distance between him and her. The red hair man saw the girl was scared of him, so he gave her a warm smile and step back a little.
"Hey don't be afraid. I won't harm you. I just saw you watch everyone passing the barrier. So I thought you required help" The red hair man said. He seems good and he is talking so politely she thought.
"I w-was just-" she sighed. " I'm just nervous".
"Oh, first time to Hogwarts?" The red hair man asked and she nodded gently. Well, the red-haired man was curious as to why she was standing alone there, where are her parents?
"Well just asking miss, why are you standing alone here? Are you waiting for your parents? did they go somewhat-"
"I don't have any parents," The girl said while cutting off the red-haired man. The man was shocked and upset, so this girl was alone there. Maybe that's why she was afraid of him. So the red hair man took a slow step forward carefully not to scare her. He walked in front of her and bend a little.
"Then let me help. My wife and my best friend are waiting on the platform for me" The red hair man suggested with a warm tone. The girl looked at him and there was a warm smile. This man doesn't look bad at all.
"Will you?" The ask in conformation.
" Of course, I will. Now Let's go then miss-" Then red hair man remember he doesn't know this girl's name. "Blimey, I don't know your name yet" He smiled at himself making the girl smile.
"I'm Vanessa Valencia sir" The girl introduces herself with a smile.
"Hello Vanessa I'm Ron Weasley " The red hair man introduced while bringing out a hand for a handshake, while the girl was shocked, She was meeting THE RON WEASLEY FROM THE GOLDEN TRIO, WHO DEFEATED THE DARK LORD, WHO'S THE BEST FRIEND OF THE BOY WHO LIVED while seeing the shock expression on Vanessa's face. Ron laughed a little which made Vanessa embarrassed.
"Well look like you know me?" Ron asked with a chuckle
"Y-yes of course I do. you are from the golden TRIO, I have read all about you in the book THE BOY WHO LIVED, you are famous of course," Vanessa said with a surprised smile. She can't believe she was meeting a member of the golden TRIO.
"Well we can talk about it all Vanessa, first we should cross the barrier and reach the platform" Ron suggested which made Vanessa remember. Of course, the Hogwarts Express, she nodded. "you know how to cross the barrier?"
"N-no Mr. Weasley," Vanessa said been an awkwardness. she doesn't know how to pass the barrier.
"That's not a big deal Vanessa well now let me tell you, see the wall between 9 and 10" Ron pointed at the wall which made Vanessa look at it. "we have to run to pass the barrier okay".
Ron explained standing up to which Vanessa nodded yes "let me help you with your trolly", Ron took hold of Vanessa's trolly.
"Let's go then" while saying that Vanessa and Ron made a run to the wall and passed the barrier to reach a platform when they came to platform 9/3 4 Vanessa was in awe at seeing Hogwarts's express and the station full of crowd.
"Well my family will be further, let's go then," Ron said while walking but was soon stopped by Vanessa.
"N-no Mr. Weasley, I can go by myself from here you should join your family," Vanessa said. He already helped her a lot by helping her pass the barrier, he's a good man but she doesn't want to interrupt his family time.
"Hey Vanessa that's okay, you should come. It's Harry's godson and my brother's daughter's first time at Hogwarts too, maybe you guys can be friends and I insist too," Ron said, to which Vanessa couldn't deny. "okay Mr. Weasley, thank you so much tho"
"Call me Ron, Mr. Weasley makes me feel old" Ron pout while making Vanessa laugh " now come on or my wife will kill me" Ron made a quick laugh and they started to walk to meet his friends, and family who were waiting.
