Chp. 3 Learning magic or at least trying to!

"Wingardium leviosa." My colour stars to float.

You must be confused by the time gap, so as to fill in, after nap what followed was a very mundane day. Me and Papa,well Papa was home by the time I woke up from my nap, it was almost late evening , we played and what an experience that was, I thought since I have memories of my 20 year old self I would not like playing as an toddler but being a toddler is very distracting, every little thing grasp my attention and I have to say it was very entertaining to play. It's that when I realized it's like-for example,when you want to go to Paris for vacation let's say, but you have not gone their and someone shows you pictures of Paris and says now you know the place so you don't have to go there anymore, but it's very different to actually experience then to have a picture in your head, everything is new to me because it's my first time experiencing these things as Eva so I am adapting to it. After that Papa told me to play by myself and he says he is working, his job is not done for the day so he will work from home but then mom came home and we had dinner and then I was knocked out to a dreamless sleep, some things never change like my night sleep, I very rarely dream, be in this life or the one before. Then we repeat the same thing and now I am alone trying to figure out magic.

After doing the levitation I realised few things and before doing that I figure out few things i.e mind is important.

You know I just realised but to do magic any kind, first your mind need to create a imagination and you simply need a creative mind for that which you can develop too if you do not already have it, and second you have to be able to visualize your creation, whatever is your imagination you should know you can make it a reality and you absolutely believe it- that you can, anything that you cannot visualize is simply not possible, and third is the belief, that it will come true or you can say your will power need to be strong because it's like you are willing your surrounding to change according to you or you are changing with it, the absolute determination that it is the reality not a illusion.

Looking at Harry Potter series you will realise that anytime they don't mean it or believe it they are not able to cast the specific magic.

Another thing, I have a theory about wandless magic which is,I believe you don't have to be a strong magical wizard or witch to able to perform wandless magic.No! anyone can do it, who can do magic, the reason for me making this statement is children often do magic without a wand and now you will say it's accidental magic which children under age of 11 often do but they don't mean for it to happen. Well if you remember Harry's mother Lily, when she was a child she and Severus use to pass flowers and leaves to each other by magic she even made a flower bloom and even has tried to fly while riding a swing and they both did so knowingly, with intention but they stop doing magic without wand after entering Hogwarts.

So I am going to do it with intention and no over thinking and creatively and not going to stop even after Hogwarts and all this thinking is making me a little sleepy🥱.

I plucked a bud of flower from my garden and then make it to bloom, it was a daisy and it bloomed right in my hands and the more I succeed in magic the more confident I became, the more firmer my belief become and start doing different kinds of things.

I first messed by bed by magic making my pillow float without saying anything and I know it's going to float because I have did it before, then my quilt and bedsheet and I was having so much fun that in my excitement I accidentally loose control and now all things in my room starts floating, oops and now my room is messed. So I willed my bed to be made and it did not because I did not visualize it properly and I tried again and it did it but not quite as I want it,so in frustration I did it again with the strongest bit of force and it is like a click, happened perfectly and after that I did it again to clean my room. But it was not perfect. I will need spells for it but so be it. After doing all this thing I was tired,very tired actually, so rubbing my eyes I ate my food and go to sleep.

Next day, I planned for how I will train. So art is the best way to be creative and art is able to express emotions too, so I will add art in my schedule and meditation to train my mind, and physical exercise and yoga for flexiblity after all a healthy body means a healthy mind. Music, drawing and dancing is I am interested in so let's talk to my parents about it.

(4years later)

It's been 4 years, I have been doing same thing everyday. Daily I woke up in the morning in ungodly hours do stretchings, then exercise and then I go for a run after that I go for swimming, ( only on winters, swimming is it of my schedule because we have an outdoor pool,so pool is frozen in winter) . After my hygiene routine I do yoga and meditation. Let me tell you meditation turns out to be such a great idea, I can now control my magic much better and I did not have any accidental magic bout since then,I always performs control magic. Ooh and I can clear my mind now to be black for about like 10 minutes, thought I don't thing this is enough to keep anyone from sneaking a peak of my mind but I am sure when I start learning Occumlry I will be able to learn it fairly well. Going back to my routine after that I go to school, go to piano lessons, go to ballet and then home spend some time playing with my friends,tell you what I can make friends with almost anyone of all age groups if I want to,even before friendship came easily to me, then bonding with my parents, on Saturdays or Sundays going to Library to check out the history and science section,oh and of course novels of any style you can think of. After doing all that right before going to sleep I exhausts myself playing with magic and then get knocked into dreamless sleep. Oh and I always sleep on time and gets proper rest because I know once you messed up your sleep cycle it take a lot of effort to correct it, and how do I know it! past wisdom, been there done it and now I know better.

The only exception has been, whenever we goes on vacation. Let me tell you we have been to many places in different parts of the world,apparently it was one of my parents dream to travel all over the world. I can say with confidence I have enough memories to produce a Pantronus from it. We have been in mountain, beaches, forest, camping, hiking, sea diving and what not. But today is going to be a stressful day for me because I am going to do magic in front of my parents, it's not like they do not have any in linking to it after all before my control on my magic their had been many incidents of them coming in contact with it and that is why now Merry does not babysits me anymore when they are not home ( apparently she was here more for me then mom) and Of course they believe me to be mature enough to be left alone in house because I am mature enough to be by my self.

So there goes nothing, we are all sitting on sofa watching TV and I am focused on screen before my eyes when an ad start to play and to change the channel I stretch my arms toward the TV remote and it floats your my hand and I changed the channel. I am hyper aware of my parents exchanging looks between them but they said nothing no reaction, ok so no reaction,ok. That night I sneak to their room to eavesdropping to their dialogue and it goes something like this I remember-

"Charles did you notice what happened in downstairs? " Mom asked.

"I was sitting right their Grace how could I not, let's not talk about it, to me Eva is my child that is all and I will always love her no matter how special she is. " Dad replied.

" That's true my baby has always been special and I always knew it, nothing changes. " Mom said.

That is how that fasco ends. It was important for me to know how my parents will react to magic after all I do not want them to be afraid of me and people are always afraid of unknown, not many embrace unknown which they cannot understand but I do not want them to think me to be some incarnation of devil or something and to stop loving me.

Ooh before I forgot I gotta tell this my magic has gotten stronger after my 7th birthday and it's flowing more smoothly, there was a big difference between before and after my 7th birthday. Why do you think that is? 🤔Gotta find answer to that.
