Q.G
8:00 am
TODAY was the day Newt Scamander was leaving New York.
It’s been over a week since the Magizoologist came to New York. After the incident with Credence and his creatures. The Goldstein sisters offered him to stay at their apartment. Of course, the kind Magizoologist declined politely, but Queenie insisted. Newt Scamander knew he couldn’t say ‘no’ to a legilimens, so he accepted.
Queenie was a legilimens. She was born with the ability to read minds. Although she loved her ability, it has some disadvantages. When people found out about her legilimens power, they often called her a ‘freak’, sometimes even ‘crazy.’ This hurt Queenie. She sometimes believed she was truly a freak, but her older sister, Tina was always there for her. She always looked up to her ever since her parents died when she was young. Men always tried to get with her, but Queenie ignored them. Why? They only cared about her looks. Men only like her for looks but right when they find out she’s a legilimens, they leave.
Well that was until Jacob came into her life. Jacob Kowalski was the man that Queenie fell for. When she first met Jacob he was like any other guy. His thoughts focused on her beauty. She wasn’t surprised. Most men call her a ‘Bombshell’ all the time. But she quickly realized that he's different.
When he found out she was a legilimens, he didn’t freak out. Well maybe just a bit, but still, he found it fascinating. They quickly got along and started to fall for each other. But there was one problem.
The Rappaport Law. The law that separated No-majs and Wizards. Jacob was a No-maj and Queenie was a witch. Of course, this left Queenie heartbroken. She saw the man she loved the most get obliviated. It hurts to see your loved one forget their memories of you and your friends.
Although she was left heartbroken, she still had her older sister, Tina.
For the past few days, she notices something odd about her sister. She's more Bright?
She doesn’t know what it is, but she definitely knows she’s a lot happier than before. Perhaps it could be that she could be getting her Job back? Or maybe it’s because……
Newt.
Ever since Newt agreed to stay at their apartment, a certain brunette slowly became attracted to Mr, Scamander. It was a bit obvious that Tina was starting to like Newt. Queenie was glad that Tina found somebody to make her happy. It was about time. The younger witch thought as she watched her sister and Newt talk on the couch.
Tina always kept men outside her life. She always told Queenie that she needs no man to survive. The older sister was a smart independent woman, but sometimes she pushed herself a bit too hard. Yes, she was a bossy and professional woman, but Queenie always tried to make her have fun and have some social life, outside of work but that never worked out. Tina always had trouble with men, that's why she doesn’t allow herself to go out with men.
On the other hand, Queenie was a girl that always daydreamed about love. She did attract men by her looks, but they were never the right ones. Yet, she still believed in true love and soulmates. Like her sister said she doesn’t need men to survive, but she still wanted to give love a chance. And that's what she did.
Seeing her sister get attracted to a guy surprised her, but made her happy as well.
If Teen’s happy, then I'm happy. The blonde witch thought. But am I truly happy?
Yes, I am happy. No, I’m not.
She misses a certain baker. She misses him so much, but he can’t be with her. Stupid law- Her thoughts were cut off by another one in the way. It was Newt’s.
I’ll definitely miss them. Mostly Tina. He thought. Queenie looked up from her breakfast and looked at Newt. He must have figured that Queenie was reading his mind, and she saw a tint of pink on his cheeks. Queenie then smirked at him and continued eating her pancakes.
Tina then entered the dining room. She was dressed in a white blouse with a black striped coat and a black long skirt with some black shoes. And Of course her locket. The locket that Tina's mother gave her. As she entered she saw a plate of pancakes on her usual spot. She sat down and started eating.
The room was filled with silence. The only noises heard were cars driving in the distance and Tina struggling to cut her pancake.
As they continued eating, Queenie noticed something. Newt and Tina were glancing at each other when the other weren’t looking. Queenie observed the tension between the two.
How cute, their both in love with each other without realizing it. The young witch thought. She started to giggle a bit but continued eating her pancake.
Does he have to leave now? Can’t he stay a bit longer ? Tina thought to herself.
“Teenie, he can’t stay any longer, and besides his ship leaves today.” Queenie told her sister. Tina turned red and realized her sister could read minds. “ Speaking about that, its already 8:30, your boat leaves at 9:00 Newt” She said.
“Right, I think I should be getting ready to go now.” Newt tells the sisters. Queenie got the dishes and put them in the sink.
“Hey Teen, why don’t you go with Newt and say.” Queenie said as she smirked at them.
“Yeah, sure” Tina said as she glared at her younger sister. Queenie smiled back at her.
“Alright, I’ll go get my stuff ready.” Newt says as he goes into his case to see if everything ready.
Queenie sat on the couch and got out a cooking book. As she was reading she saw her sister walking up to her and sitting next to her. “Queenie, what are you up to?” Tina glared at her as she said her words. Tina's hands were in her lap and noted that she was fidgeting with her fingers.
“Oh, Nothing Teenie.” Queenie smiled at her. Tina frowned.
5 minutes passed and Newt finally came out of his case. “I’m ready.” As soon as those words came out of Newt, Queenie felt her sister sadness through her thoughts. Queenie walked up to Newt and put her hand on his shoulder.
“Well, have a good trip Newt, It was nice having you here for the last few days.” She told him
“Thank you for letting me stay here, I really appreciate it.” He said avoiding eye contact.
Queenie smiled at him. “8:50, we’re going to be late Newt.” Tina said as she grabbed a coat.
“Oh alright, goodbye Queenie.” Newt said as He walked toward the door with Tina. Queenie nodded at him and then looked at her sister and smirked. Tina glared and Queenie watched as the duo walked out the door.

Her heels were heard as she was walking. Queenie was walking down the street, looking from right to left, trying to find something. She continued walking, trying to ignore everybody thoughts around her. Turning the corner she saw it. Kowalski Quality Baked Goods. There was a huge line outside the small bakery. Customers were coming out as well.
His bakery is doing wonderful. She thought. Looking around she crossed the road and went in line. What was she doing here though?
She came to see Jacob of course. She wanted to see how he's doing. Not only that, but she wanted to see how he's bakery was doing. She knew Jacob got his bakery because Newt told her that he gave him some Occamy eggs shells for his collateral. Speaking of Newt, Tina found a fantastic guy that cares for her. Queenie knew that Newt is falling for her sister, but he doesn't want to admit yet.
My, These pastries are amazing. One customer thought as they exited the bakery. She continued reading people thoughts, and she was excited to see and taste the pastries.
Walking inside, she turned around and saw that there was another huge line outside the bakery. Oh my, people must really like his pastries. She turned around and starting looking around.
The smell of freshly baked bread filled the small bakery. Queenie loved that smell for some reason. It made her feel like home.
Looking around she gasped. She noticed that Jacob pastries were shaped like creatures. But not any kind of creatures. Magical Creatures.
Did Jacob Remember? No. He got obliviated. Right?
Looking at the rest of the pastries, she heard a familiar voice. Jacob. She was shocked but happy. She turned around and met his face.
He was behind a counter wearing a white apron. Jacob didn't realize Queenie was there, but he looked up and met his eyes.
She smiled at him. Jacob looked a bit shocked.
That's her. That's the girl in my dream that I loved. Jacob thought.
Love. Jacob loved her. And she did too.
Wow, she really is beautiful. He thought. Queenie started to walk toward him as he put his hand over his murtlap bite. Before she could say anything, he spoke.
"Queenie?" he said. Queenie froze.
What? How does he remember?
Suddenly, She reads his mind, and she sees all of his memories from the incident.
"Jacob,"
"Is it really you Queenie? Is this a Dream?"
A Dream, of course. He still thinks this is a dream. But he remembers me.
"Yes, It's me Queenie," She tells him. She doesn't want to be apart from him any longer.
"Wait, you're real? Does that mean everything actually happened?" He says.
"We shouldn't talk here, but yes everything was real." Queenie tells him. Jacob looks down and tries to take it all in.
It wasn't a dream. Magic is real? Wizards and witches are real? Wow, I want to be a wizard. He thinks. Queenie chuckles. "I'll come back tomorrow, Teenie must be waiting for me at home." She says. Jacob's nods and Queenie smiles at him before turning around and walking toward the door.

Back at the Goldstein's apartment, Tina is quietly reading a book at their couch. Living With a Legilimens:Choose Your Mind Wisely. Why was she reading this she doesn't know either. Perhaps because she didn't have anything else to read or maybe, to keep her distracted from what happened at the docks earlier with Newt. She doesn't want her younger sister, a legilimens to tease her about it.
Her Thoughts were distracted by the door opening. Queenie walked in with a smile. Tina being suspicious, asked Queenie, "Hey, where were you?" Queenie looked at her, still smiling, "How was the goodbye?" she asked Tina.
Tina frowned and a tint of red appeared on her cheeks. "No, where were you Queenie." She asked again. Queenie knew she couldn't tell Tina about Jacob yet, because she knew how she was going to respond.
"Getting some fresh air Teen," she told her sister. Tina frowned. She knew her younger siste barely took walks out of nowhere. "Teenie, I'm being serious. I was just walking and thinking about stuff." Queenie said. "Fine." Tina said.
Looking at her older sister, she read her thoughts. She smirked at the memory with Newt and her. She walked towards the couch. "So how was it?" she asked and she sat down next to her big sister. Tina blushed a bit and said, "How was what?" pretending to read the book.
"You like him don't you Teen?" she told her as she smirked. Tina knew she couldn't hide any secerts from her sister. "Maybe."
"Come on! Why didn't you tell right then and there?" Queenie asked her sister. "Because what kind of stranger falls in love with a stranger they met for ten days, Queenie." Tina snapped back.
"Teenie, its called love at first sight."
Of course you would say that. Tina Thought. "Teenie, it is! I know love when I see it!" Queenie told Tina. "Don't read my mind." she said. "I can't help it you know." Queenie told her. Tina just rolled her and continued her book. Queenie just stared at her, reading her mind.
"He's coming back?" She asked her.
"Yes, he's coming back to give me his copy of his book." She told Queenie as she looked at her. Queenie saw her sister's eyes glow as she said that. She smiled at her and realized hw in love her sister was with Newt Scamander.
Queenie spent the whole afternoon teasing Tina about Newt. She was happy that her sister was in love. She was also happy. Why? Jacob remembers everything. Even her. And he loved her. And she loved him back.
