The Fifth Marauder?! [ON HOLD]

Chapter 1

Mel's POV
*~*
Waking up at 6 was a lot more tougher than I Thought! I had made a point to wake up early for my birthdays..which was extremely difficult as i stayed up till 1 am to celebrate. I got up from bed, brushed, had a long hot bath and after readying myself, I went downstairs. No one was up. Yesterday's party must have exhausted all of them. I tiptoed into my parents' room and saw no one.. The bed was empty.
Returning back to the kitchen I thought about where they had gone. Suddenly the lights went out. It was utmost dark because I hadn't pulled up the curtains. There was a sudden yelling of 'SURPRISE!!!!' As the lights turned on.
There on the breakfast table were so many presents which would put even the Christmas tree to shame. Beside those were my parents, my mom-Rita Adams, and my dad-Neel Adams. My grandparents, from my mom's side couldn't be here as they lived in India and my other grandparents were dead. They died in a plane crash. My cousins also lived in India. Rujoo, who was my favourite cousin, lived in Gujarat. She came here every two or three years as her parents had to attend conferences(they were doctors). She was just my age and turning into 11 after two days. It was fun how near were our birthdays.
I hugged mom and dad and sat down for my 'birthday breakfast' as mom called it.
"Mel, dear, happy birthday! Hope this year brings out the unexpected goodness in you!"
"Dear, may this day be the best day of your life! Not everyone turns 11 everyday!"
I took both their blessings by touching their feet. It is a custom in India that to attain blessings you have to touch your elder's feet.
"Thank you mom, thanks daddy"
I looked at the wall clock again. It was just 7 am. Eating breakfast which were waffles and dosa(an indian food item), my favourite, I washed my hands. I am not so hygienic but my mom is so she penetrated this habit into me!
I started opening my presents. Mom had bought me two dresses and three shorts knowing I love shorts!
Dad bought me some earrings and a locket in which there could be placed two pics. In one of them I placed a pic of us three laughing. Ah! The good ol' times!
My grandparents sent some pendas(again, a sweet sugary item from india).
Rujoo sent a greeting card.. Wait what?! A freaking card! Thats it?! She's so gonna be dead! Oh gawwdd!
'Ringggg,Rrrrriiiinnngggggg!'
"I'll pick up the phone",Mom said.
I continued opening my gifts. There were many cards from my friends and my teachers. Some of my friends gave me posters of Real Madrid, Barcelona, Manchester United and Liverpool!!! If I forgot to mention, I freaking love football!! Who doesn't? I mean I play for my school and stuff.. Some bought me keychains of the avengers from the new movie.
I wrote everyone a thankyou postcard and gave them to dad to send them.
Mom called from the living room,"Mel!!! Its your grandparents and Rujoo on the line!! Come fast! They want to wish you!"
I ran at my full speed to the living room and picked up the phone.
"Heyy"
"Hi dear, Happy birthday! You've grown so fast! I just saw your pic. Your mom sent me one", grandma answered.
I glared playfully at mom.. "Thanks grandma! I know.. Miss you granny!", I replied.
"Miss you too beta(daughter)! Love you! Here, talk to your grandpa now.", Grandma said.
"Heyy beta! Kem cho?(how are you) happy birthday! Hope you'll enjoy your day!", grandpa said.
"Hello grandpa! I'm fine! Awesome as ever! Thank you! Same to you!", I replied.
"Love you beta! Take care! Here talk to Rujoo, she's wants to talk to you first.", grandpa said.
"HI MEL! HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I'm sorry!" Rujoo shouted.
"Hiii Rujoo!! Thanks love! Why sorry?" I replied.
"Haha welcome! Sorry cuz i just sent a card! I couldn't think of what to get you. Sorry!" Rujoo reasoned
"Its okay! I have to admit i was a little sad that you sent only a card but it fine! Love you cous!" I said.
"Thanks dear! Now mom's practically dragging me to bed.. Its 10:30 here! Sorry again. Bbye! Love you too sissy!" Rujoo answered.
"Bbye Rujoo! Talk to you later! Goodnight hon! Sweetdreams!" I said and ended the call.
All this talking made me hungry again. What can I say? I'm a growing girl! Sometimes its weird that I eat so much but still don't get fat.
Dad collected the post today and handed me 2 envelopes. One was from my mom's bestfriend, wishing me a happy birthday and the other was from a place called Hogwarts!
