The New House

[Olivia Pendergast]

Olivia's two young children held her hand as she apparated them to their new home. It was small compared to their mansion in London, However it would do. At least for how long her and her youngest would have to live there. The house was made out of a light, white stone with windows and balconies lining each floor. Their were three floors in total, each holding 4 rooms. The First, held the grand entrance way, covered in white marble along with the tea room, The family room and the Kitchen and maid's quarters. The second held 4 bedrooms with a bathroom for each and the final floor held the master room along with three other guest suites. Olivia turn her thoughts to her youngest daughter, as she was currently pulling on the sleeve of her new dress robe. She raised one eyebrow and quickly corrected her. Children must wait in till spoken to and wait patancetly in till then. She quickly called her daughter and son's Governess and order her to show them to their new rooms and help them settle in, as she dealt with the kitchen. Olivia had only brought one house elf from her mansion in London, but this elf(who's name was Crinkle) was one of her favorites. The elf's tart was to die for and Olivia served it at ever function she held. "Crinkle!" She called, her voice almost cold. The poorly dressed house elf, appeared. He was only dressed in a small dish towel, and his big eyes covered most of his face. "Yes, Mistress." he said, giving a small bow. "I will be having an open house, sometime this week. I want the house spotless and the kitchen prepared for...oh, let's say 50 guests." "Yes, Mistress" Crinkle was about to pop away, when Olivia suddenly spoke again. "I will be going out tonight, for dinner. So only the children need to be fed, make their favorite." Olivia paused, she couldn't remember what the children's favorite meal was, well it was no matter. Crinkle would remember and sure enough Crinkle just nodded and popped away, seeming to go make dinner.
Olivia called up to her children to say goodnight and left the governess in charge of them and as she put on her cloak and gloves, she wondered what sort of meal, she could even get in Hogsmeade.
