She walked slowly over to the table where Jesifur sat. Cora was so small for her age and quiet that many didn't notice her. But Cora had decided when she came to Hogwarts she would make friends. She already had a few, and knew she had to be more confident. So, she walked up to Jesifur and quietly said, "Hi. I...I'm Cora." She smiled.
Looking at the game board, she noticed four plastic hippos set up at each side of the board. There were many little marbles in separate sections. Cora wondered about this game. It looked a bit like a game she had played, but she hadn't ever played before.
Jesifur stood up as Cora approached. "Hi Cora, Jesifur Hitchens." she held out her hand for a shake. "Have you ever played this before? I have played it with some of mt cousins, but it has been a long time. Its actually a little kids game, we used to play it when we were just tots. It's really easy to play though."
Jesifur smiled at Cora, "Take a seat in front of the hippo of your choice and we can start I guess." She sat back down in front of the orange hippo herself.
