Chapitre 5: A "fun" trip (Chapter 5)
Waking up the next day, I went to my dresser to get whatever money I had. I had a few pounds (U.K. Currency) that I got from stealing from the orphanage, I am a terrible person I know that do not judge me, and from doing small task here and there. I had about 15GBP (again U.K. currency) that I had in total. I could not help but look at all the money I had and sigh. I really hope this is enough. I could maybe ask Grace for some money, but I doubt she would give it to me.
Getting dressed, and doing my morning routine; I made my way downstairs to see that Grace had already made breakfast. I looked at her and she looked at me. I was still mad at her for not helping me with this one thing. I just wanted to be more powerful, the more power I had the more I could help was my logic to it.
Grace told all the kids that breakfast was ready, I did not want to eat. I wanted to go and do my own thing. I walked to the front door and was about to put my shoes on when Grace said
"Darius where are you going?"
I do not know what it was but I was upset. I was mad about being here in this world maybe? or maybe it was due to the fact that I was 26 years old in the body of an 8-year-old. I use to being able to do my own thing. Hell, I have been doing that since before I could remember in my previous life. I like Grace I really did, but it was time like this that I hated her. 'Where are you going, I am going where I damn well please'
"I am going to the store," I said to her
"No you are not...breakfast is ready and WE are going to eat together," She said to be
Again...I really wanted to yell at her right now. I tried to calm myself down, but the more I thought about it the more upset I became. I just wanted to go to the store. Grace kept looking at me and I just kept breathing in and out to calm myself. It went on for a few seconds before Grace said
"Dari-
"Fine...Fine I am going to get freaking breakfast" I said to her.
Taking my shoes off, and walking to the table to sit down. The other kids looked at me and did not say anything. Looking at them I could not help but sigh. These kids did not deserve to be here, they should have their own family and life to have a good life. We said our prayers, which I asked the God I knew to give me money, and ate our food. It took a little bit but I made it through.
I quickly made my way to the front door, put my shoes on, and ran outside. I did not want her to bother me. In my previous life, I was an 'I have a task, and just want to do it. So don't fucking bug me' guy. I tried to be better in this life than in my previous life but....habits die hard...if at all.
I finally made it to the shopping area. There were a lot of stores and apartments everywhere here. I kind of enjoyed it, seeing the cars go by and the people. It was fun, for me that is. I walked around looking for a store that could help me. I have been here before with Grace, and I kind of knew where everything was. It took me a while but I finally found a herb shop.
The shop was in between two buildings and did not seem to be getting a lot of attention. I was a little excited, finally, I am getting the ingredients for my potions. Opening the door the first thing I noticed was that the shop was clean and smelled really nice. The shop was about medium size, it had two aisles running down the shop. there were some goods on the walls of the store as well. I remember Grace taking us near this place, but never actually been inside. I looked around and noticed that the people inside of here were either old or out of fashion.
I made my way to the cash register and saw a young man who was occupying it. 'He must be the one that is working right now.' I thought to myself.
"Excuse me sir..I am looking for some herbs." I said to him.
he rolled his eyes and said "What do you want kid..."
I am trying to be nice, people I swear. "I have a list of herbs that I thought you might have able to purchase." I handed him a piece of paper that made my list of what I needed for each pathway. My goal was to not only see the price for each one but to also see if they were available.
He looked at the list, and then looked at me. It was kind of awkward...the staring at each other went on for about a minute before he sighed and said
"You do realize that most muggle places will not have these ingredients right?" I looked at him with my eyes wide open. 'I am an idiot of course no normal shop would have this stuff'.
The guy saw my face and started to shake his head. He seemed to have opened up a bit more now that he thought I was a wizard.
"Look, where are your parents if you gave the list to them then they would know about it."
"My mom said that I was old enough to get some ingredients on my own, she is working a potion and told me to get what was on the list" I said to him. I had a talent for lying to people, it was a talent I was not happy with. Lying, cheating, and stealing, were things that I was good at. I never liked it, and honestly wished I was better at helping people. Life never gives you what you want.
He sighed and pointed to a door that was at the end of the shop and said "Go through that door and it will take you to the Leaky Cauldron, from there you can go to Diagon alley. This shop does not sell the items that your mother needs, so you will have to go there."
My heart started to race a little bit. I wanted the ingredients sure, but I did not feel safe going to Diagon alley by myself. Maybe Grace was right...maybe I should wait for this. There was something that told me to go, I mean I did always want to see magic. FUCK IT.
I made my way through the door, and could not help but think that this was going to be fun.
