Explanation:

- The sentence describes an event that happened for the first time. It implies that the speaker had not gone into the magic shop before a specific day.

- Option 1: "since" implies a continuous action from a past point until now. This doesn't fit because the speaker is describing a specific day when the action first occurred.

- Option 2: "until" indicates a point in time when a change occurs. The speaker hadn't gone into the shop until that specific day, making this the correct choice.

- Option 3: "while" indicates simultaneous actions. This doesn't fit because "going in" is not described as happening simultaneously with something else.

- Option 4: "after" implies a sequence of events. It doesn't fit here because it suggests going into the shop post an unspecified event.

Correct Answer: ?? Option 2: "until"
