Backstory

I will never forget that day. One summer morning, around 10:30 a.m., I wake up with my mother calling for me. I came down the stairs of my room and saw my mother with a letter in her hand, a letter with a strange shape. I was invited to start my studies at Hogwarts. I was a wizard! This, came to justify why I broke the TV screen out of nowhere; why I created a puddle in the middle of the room...unexplained things that came to have, through a letter.

I moved to England, more specifically, to Liverpool with my parents when I was 9 years old. Perhaps that's why he received a letter from Hogwarts and not Beauxbatons. We made friendship with our neighbours, very nice people, Mr. Morgan and Ms. Chang and also with other neighbours like Mrs. Leanne, Mrs. Patil, Mrs. Spinnet and Mr Thomas.

But, it was strange. It was as if my parents had known them for years.

When we got the letter from Hogwarts, my parents, they looked surprised, but, I didn't really believe that reaction. It was as if they had studied magic too, but, they never told me about it. My parents are two humble people. My father is called Mark Silva and my mother is Katie Bell. They met in France, as far as I know, in Quiberon, playing sports, but they didn't tell me which one. My father is a banker and my mother is a sports journalist. It's not the first time I'm in England, as my mother is English, I've been here a few times to visit my grandparents and uncles but we never came to stay permanently, except now.

Diagon Alley, what a fantastic place! A universe filled with everything and anything from that world. Brooms, wands, cauldrons...

Hogwarts, my beautiful Hogwarts...a long road ahead of me. But, I'll show you what I'm worth! By being loyal to my friends; by always being fair and I will work hard to achieve what I want. Always!
