Weeks pass, months pass, soon years pass, I have plateau'd and so has Carys, and Rowan. I can't teach them anything, I have no one to teach me. Alongside that we don't have any books that can help at this point all of us have become Intermediate Spellcasters. I'm starting to consider to that magic academy that Carys has mentioned years ago. Only problem is my family doesn't have the money, I don't have the money neither does Rowan or Carys or their families.
Today is Emma's 5th Birthday. I invited Rowan, Carys, and their parents. Turns out Rowan has a younger sister about my age. So I invited her too. Emma hasn't made any friends yet since she's just like I was and didn't want to go out much. So it was just the previously mentioned people. Me and my dad pitched in together with his work money and my favor money and got her a story book and a toy wand. Rowan got her a Rose Quartz stone which are decently common in the forest near us for some reason. Carys got her a cake that she baked with her and her family. They all place their gifts and presents and I do to on our dining table and have Emma come down from her room. She comes down the stairs fast but also slow very frantically, she looks at us then the table then back at us. "Whut tis bout?" (What's this about) She asks us. I forgot to mention she's gotten really good at the language but not super at pronunciation. Still good enough to know what she's saying though.
"It's your 5th birthday party!" Thorne exclaims.
"Birth..day?" Emma asks.
"A birthday is the day of the year that you were born and every 5 years times we celebrate it as a milestone" Rowan explains.
"Ohh" Emma starts to understand.
I look at Thorne he looks at me, then everyone exchanges an understanding glance. Suddenly we all start singing
"Happy Birthday Emma! Happy Birthday Emma! Hope this all suits you well! Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday Emma!"
Hearing this Emma gets a bit flustered then smiles. For the rest of the day we all have fun and enjoy Emma's birthday one at a time giving her, her presents. Pretty quickly into the day the parents leave for work so it's just Me, Emma, Rowan, Carys, and Lyra (Rowan's sister). We play around, mess around sometimes show Lyra and Emma magic. Soon I'd consider Lyra to be part of the friend group with how much she talked and the fact that she stayed and her being Rowan's sister and Emma is definitely in it since she's my sister. Once the sun sets Rowan and Lyra leave, leaving Me, Emma, and Carys. She stays for a bit longer until her mother comes to pick her up about an hour after Rowan had left. Then Thorne gets home just minutes after Carys had left.
