Cha-Noi stood outside of one of the bookstores he had just purchased from, his arms holding tightly onto the bags of materials for his fourth year at Hogwarts. He took a deep breath as he looked about the busy alley, smiling as he saw all the people scurrying about to get their materials. He looked down into his bags, quickly scamming over them to make sure he had gotten all the items on his list. Not a person was too happy with him last year when he had forgotten to stop at a shop along the way, but took extra caution this year when shopping. It was difficult to do most of the things by himself, but swore that he'd make friends this year. After all, he was beginning to open up a lot, and had even started talking to people he didn't know over summer. His mother and him had practiced being more presentable, and he thought himself that he was doing good. He let out a happy sigh as he headed towards The Leaky Cauldron, glad the new year was starting up soon.
