Who: Kevin and OPEN
What: Trying to get through the barrier
When: About 9 am on September 1, 2017
Where: Kings Cross Station
Kevin had his trunk packed and he and his mother had loaded it onto a cart. Mathematically speaking, the Dennahae's had reasoned that the entrance to the platform would be somewhere between 9 and 10. The problem, they couldn't figure out how to get there.
They stood and watched a Muggle train come and go. Kevin had noticed several students with similar trunks but each time he tried to figure out where they were off to, he lost sight of them and then they were gone. Hopefully, someone would recognize him from the two trips he'd taken into Diagon Alley and help him find the train.

The girl he found himself watching was all a flutter. Going back to school was so exciting! She seemed as if she couldn't wait to see her friends and get settled on the train. Surely she had some pocket money for sweets and was itching to get on board and spend it. Licorice wands, chocolate frogs, and yes maybe even a blood pop or two.
He watched as she said goodbye to her parents. He wonder if she wished they'd taken her through the barrier.
She pushed her cart with her trunk along the way to platform 9 3/4. As she made her way to spot to pass through, she noticed him looking a bit lost and confused standing with his mum. Judging by his age she must have imagined he might be an incoming firstie. Biting her lip, she paused and examined him a moment hoping she was correct. "Um, excuse me," she said tentatively as she approached him. "Are you ... trying to find your platform?"
