"I've always wanted a sister!" Isabella said as she hopped onto her bed and swung her legs against the side. She wondered why Randi was wandering around the room. Maybe she needed to stretch or something after laying on the bed. "I've got a cousin, though, she's pretty close to a sister. I'm from Peru! We live in Cambridgeshire now, though. Just moved there a year ago, so I could come to Hogwarts. Where are you from?"
Isabella wondered what house her dad would have been in if he'd go to Hogwarts. Her mother, she knew, was a Ravenclaw, but Dad had gone to a different school.
Miranda sat back onto the bed next to Isabella and began to fold up her friends robes... just to occupy her nervous hands. " Oh .. I've lived all over the place.. My dad moved a lot for work. but we live in south London now." she smiled. " Cambridgeshire.... sounds like a nice place."
