I look around the room, waiting for something. But nothing happens. The room around me is a gloomy gray, but the halls are a rainbow of neon colors. The only other colors I can see in the room is my roommates and my pj's.
Mine is a sky-blue onezie, with Chi having a yellow teeshirt and shorts. Fred has long sleeved brown pj's, and Foxface has a red teeshirt, and pants. We are in the orphanage, not as dirty as ones imitated on TV, but the abuse is about the same, if not worse. I stop thinking about the bad circumstances and think about my favourite restaurant.
Chi is the first one to wake, followed by Fred, me, and last Foxface. We all change and sit on our beds. We haven't even been sitting a minute before a social worker comes and knocks on the old wooden door.
A white lady with blonde hair and blue eyes walks in. Wow, how ORIGINAL I think. She smiles, "You four have been adopted!" She says with glee.
"But this new home has some, rules" She says, with a nervous look. "They don't want you up at night, nor leaving the house during the week without family permission. They also will have to give you guys all a room together so they don't want no big secrets hidden."
We all nod, agreeing. "Now they said that they might yell for the first week, but they wont hurt you. I'm friends with them!" She smiles. Then I look at my friends. They shrug and the worker continues.
"They said that they will meet you at a Restaurant, because they went out for dinner today, so if there not there, call our office with this number" She hands me a card, and I pass It to Fred. "So, you guys ready?" (AN For Freddy? No? ok...) We nod, following her to her van.
