Babysitting Was Never So Fun!

[Hezekiah Mowry]

Hezekiah knocked on the door to his parents house. He stood on the porch as he patiently waited to be let into the house. He remembered when he used to live with his parents. It was a distant memory to him now. He did not want to remember the lonely days he spent in the house. The only reason he came back home was to pick up his sister Helen. He loved the 4 year old to death. He would give up anything for the little girl. She was his ultimate weakness, and if anyone even dared hurt Helen he would go off. Receiving his magical education at Durmstrang made him a very strong wizard. Especially when it came to protective spells and stuff of that sort. He felt worth something when he was with his sister. He smiled when he saw his mother open the door. "Are you here for Helen?" she asked knowingly. Hezekiah nodded and gave his mother a ninety degree bow. It was a custom his parents had taught him practically as soon as he was born. He was a very respectful person, and he was respectful to even the people that did not deserve it. He was sure that everyone was better than him anyways. He moved some of his blonde hair out of his face. Blonde was not his natural color, but it did look good on him. "Hezzy!" his sister called him happily. He bent down so he was face to face Helen. Her hair was in two short pigtails at each side of her head. She wore a pink sneakers, a pink skirt, purple leggings, and a pink shirt with a pink polka dotted jacket to go along with her outfit. He pulled his sister in for a hug. "Did you miss me?" he asked and petted his sister's head. He felt her nod against his chest. Helen pulled out of Hezekiah's grasp and held out a small green backpack. He assumed it had all of her clothes for the week. He took the backpack and stood up. He put the backpack on his back and grabbed his sister's hand. Their mother waved goodbye as they walked away from the house.

Hezekiah looked his list of foods to get. He held on firmly to Helen's hand, so then she would not get swept away in th busy outdoor market. The two had very few similarities appearance wise. Hezekiah had dyed blonde hair and his sister had natural black hair, and the two had the same big brown eyes. He hated his black hair, so he just dyed it. He wanted to look more manly, despite his strong pretty boy looks. He wanted be be called handsome. The word cute was an insult to his pride. He had his sister hold the hand basket filled with vegetables and grains. He was still wandering around the market for some meat. He had no meat in his house, and that was equal to a sin in his mind. "When do we ate Hezzy?" Helen complained as she tried to keep up with her older brother. "We will eat soon baby girl. We just need to find meat, okay?" he smiled at his sister. Hezekiah had no clue where he was going. The two had been walking in circles for about 15 minutes. Even so, he was still determined to fin meat.

Anthony did not have any food in her house whatsoever. She had to go to the market. She groaned in anger and threw her wand on the floor. She hated going to the market. It was crowded and everyone knows that Anthony Kelly hates crowds. There were too many people to annoy her and she couldn't just attack them without getting into trouble. She grabbed her oversized leather handbag, and she stuffed her wand in the purse. It was a very nice day out, but Anthony's aura ruined the feeling of perfect the sun's rays brought. Her unusual height and poker face made people at the outdoor market back away. She stopped at a fruit stand and she picked up an apple. "How much is this?" she asked the man behind the stand coldly. The man gulped as he looked up at Anthony a managed to say, "T-two galleons." Anthony took two galleons out of her handbag and tossed him the galleons. After a few hours Anthony had a basket full of fruits, vegetables, grains, and meat.

The woman noticed that a guy around her age and a little girl had been walking in circles. The guy was shorter than her by about 2-3 inches, with blonde hair, and he looked like he was from Asian descent. What drew Anthony in was the little girl. She was dressed in pink and purple from head to toe. She looked so adorable. She just had to help the guy out, so then his sister would not have to stay in this retched place for much longer. Anthony strutted over to the guy in distress. "You look very most my dear. Maybe I can help you out." she offered her free hand to the guy.​

Hezekiah was getting ready to start walking again when a woman came up to him. He held Helen's hand tighter and pulled her closer to him. He gazed at the woman with a distrustful expression. It was natural that he got serious when a stranger approached him. The woman was taller than him by a few inches. Hezekiah was not very tall anyway. He got teased for his shortness while attending Durmstrang, but he tried his best to ignore it all. Most of the horrible teasing he took straight to heart. The woman had light brown skin clear of acne, blemishes, and uneven patches of skin. He did his best to avoid her eyes because they were a very intriguing sparkling brown. She was a beauty in his eyes, but she was still a stranger. He gave the woman a shallow bow. In his culture, a shallow bow was disrespectful. 'Not like she would know.' he thought coldly in his head. Helen mirrored his actions by bowing as well, but hers was much deeper. "Good job, baby girl!" he praised his little sister with a smile. He wanted to encourage respectful behavior. He would tolerate nothing less. "I think we have been walking in circles for a long time now, Miss. You wouldn't mind helping me find these things, right?"

Hezekiah placed his list in the woman's hand. He knew she was expecting a hand shake, but he did not like making physical contact with people other than family. It was a strange habit of his. He liked to keep to himself unless he was babysitting. "Please?" his sister added cutely. She grinned at the woman showing off her small teeth. Helen almost had all of her teeth in. She still had a few more molars to go though. Hezekiah bowed again to the woman, but this time he gave a 90 degree bow. He smiled when Helen copied him. He then looked back at the woman. He waited patiently for a response.

<COLOR color="#707070">Anthony smiled faintly at the small girl's antics. Anthony had not expected to be bowed to. It was something that was done very rarely now. She looked at the small girl with warm eyes. Then the man started to talk to her. She reluctantly took her eyes off of the girl and turned them to her guardian. She rolled her eyes and looked at him as if she was just insulted. "Miss? I know I do not look older than you by much, and you have been walking around in circles for about an hour now." she called the fact to his attention. Did she really look that old enough to be called 'miss'? She hated being called that word even in restaurants. She was only twenty and this stranger looked about her age or older. His respectful behavior is what got him off the hook quite a bit. Anthony would have made much more of a show if he had not bowed once,but twice, to her. She looked at the list she was handed, and then she chuckled. She had saw several types of meat on the list still uncrossed. She looked at the stranger and then at the list. She then lifted her eyes to the look at the stranger once more.

How could such a skinny guy eat so much meat? She refused to believe he ate all this meat in a week. He looked like the type of guy that would diet and exercise. The meat on the list was enough to last someone a lifetime! She refused to believe he had that much money either. "Are you having a party or something? Or is this just for you and her?" she asked curiously. Before she gave him directions she wanted to make sure that this food would not go to waste. SHe would hate that.​
