As Helen and Cassie walked out of Olivander's Cassie stopped and looked up at a very tall, hairy man wearing a brown cloak. She was just about to ask Helen if she knew him when Helen said
"Cassie, that Hagrid, hes a teacher at Hogwarts, he's really nice one you get to know him". The sisters walked up the path a little bit and came to a shop called Madam Malkin's, they walked in. "This is a clothes shop Cass, we'll need to get you you're school robes", Helen said as they walked up to the counter.
"Hello dear, you'd need some school robes I expect", said the Lady behind the counter. Cassie nodded and looked around, the shop wasn't very big but it was full of dresses and cloaks.
"Skirt or trousers?", asked the lady who was now in her store room. Cassie, who hadn't worn a skirt or dress for years said,
"Trousers please" as the lady emerged from the store room with some black clothes.
"You will need a plain school tie until you get sorted and a plain sweat shirt, you'll need to try the clothes on too", said Madam Malkin, coming from behind the counter with the school clothes. Helen was leaning on the wall looking amused, she knew how much Cassie hated trying on clothes.
"Try these ones first, go into the changing room with them", said Madam Malkin indicating the changing rooms for Cassie.
A few minutes Cassie came out of the changing room with the school clothes on. The trousers where a little short and the cloak was too long, so long Cassie nearly tripped over it as she walked over to Helen and Madam Malkin.
"Hmm.. I better get some more trousers and another cloak", said Madam Malkin as she walked into her store room again.
"This is fun ain't it?", sniggered Helen and Cassie scowled at her. Madam Malkin came out of the store room yet again and gave Cassie the new trousers and cloak.
When Cassie came out of the changing room yet again the clothes where a comfortable fit.
Cassie went back into the changing room to take off the school clothes as Helen paid for them.
They walked out of Madam Malkin's with a box each (Cassie was holding her Wand) and along the cobbled path.
They visited some other shops called Flourish and blotts (where they got Cassie's books), a shop which sold potions and ingredience (Cassie was too dazzled by the shop window to look at the name of the shop) and the ice-cream shop Cassie had noticed before (Cassie got a large toffee ice-cream in there). They where going to goto Eeylops Owl Emporium next and Cassie was excited to be getting an owl even if she already had a cat, Helen had said you need an owl to send letters to people. I hope it's ok for you all
Man I really need to stop writing so fast!
