Pretty soon Hermione and.her parents were heading to the zoo. Having contact her uncle  Jack who informed them that he had actually extended his vacation/stay and would meet them there.

To say that Hermione was nervous would be an understatement. She felt as if her skin was positively vibrating off of her. As if she was the new pin cushion for a million needles periodically stabbing her. She was so determined for this change yet equal parts scared, afraid, worried that something could go wrong. Her stomach felt as if it was filled with rocks her throat feeling hot and itchy consistently fighting the urge to up Chuck what was in her stomach.

There was some time for her to contemplate whether or not the plan but even work. It was foolproof or a little bit holes. It was times like this when she would normally turn to her aunt Rin to give her advice or help her up. But Lily couldn't do that this time she wasn't even on the same point of existence anymore the closest she would have to her would probably be Topanga and she wasn't ready to see her acting skills and their merch remember what's good enough for her to be able to pull off asking something as out landish as this.

"You good back there Mimi?"

Lily was bought out of her only thinking by the voice of her new father. She couldn't help but scrunch up her nose at the very dog-like nickname her father has chosen. Memories of her aunt Maria and her tiny little white fluff ball of the dogs made me popping into her head. She couldn't help but shut her. The little cotton ball for running around yipping everywhere it went. The constant trail of destruction that seemed to follow the small little pup no bigger than 25 lb.

Shaking her head and shuddering at the memory.

"Don't call me that Dad sounds like a name of a dog. Also of course I'm okay why wouldn't I be okay? Should I not be okay? Do you think it's the way I'm dressed? Get my overdressed? Will the animals care what I look like do the animals even perceive what I'm wearing?"

Angela chuckled at her daughters clear overthinking and rambling. Giving her husband a look before slightly turning around and patting Hermione's leg.

"you look absolutely splendid. I'm sure everyone in the animals will very much so enjoy your look. No you're not under or overdressed your address just right. What your father meant is you seem to be overthinking something not saying your mind? You know we can always hear about your feeling with us?"

Lily/Hermione nodded. Quickly looking out of the window and seeing that they were about two three blocks away from the zoo. The gathering a few of her thoughts together before decided to share at least a little bit of the emotions that were burdening her.

"What if other kids are there? I-I know that I'm not always easiest to get along with them but I'm going to be starting any chapter of my life. I'm no longer going to be the overachieving smart elementary school kid I'm entering a whole new ball game and I'm just worried if maybe I'll run into someone who might end up going to whatever school I get into whatever made about it for some impression or what if I noticed something wrong do I say something? Do I gather evidence even if it means that they might have to be in a bad situation a little longer am I overthinking things too much do I overthink things too much I just there's a lot on my mind. I like to blame it on puberty."

Angela smiled at her daughter. Sending her husband to meaningful glance the one that they shared for just a few seconds but so many words were said. With us all sigh she turned back around and looked up the window gathering her thoughts before she spoke.

"Hermione trust me you definitely overthink but you get it from both of us. Me and your father definitely overthink things but as much as puberty is probably part of it everything that you're thinking about is also understandable. You know I had the exact same worries all the time. You know how I was constantly moving because of Grandpa's army career. And by the time we did finally settled somewhere else already an adult technically and even then it was so hard to not overthink how things were going to work out would I be able to make friends I might even capable of making long-term friends I've never done it before."
