One thing that was good about a new professor was that he had been absent for all of her family drama. He had been absent of the influence of her brother. A positive start would be a brilliant step in the right direction. Sitting down across from the professor, she thought once more about what she was going to say. "Yes. Thank you for agreeing to speak with me. I was hoping to inquire if you would be willing to assist me in my studies to become an animagus." She stated, trying her best not to sound a bit nervous. The idea of rejection and having to wait until summer was frustrating enough as is.
