"Hey A" K yelled at me from across the room.
It was suppertime and none of us wanted to bother Wammy about bringing our food to us so we offered to just have dinner in the dinning room. The only issue was I would see B. But it appears he wasn't here yet. I walked over to K, G, and H. I looked into the pot in the middle of the table. The contents in it looked to be more chicken noodle soup.
"Is this all they're going to make?" I said complaining
"Apparently till they get more people here. There isn't a reason to cook anything extravagant because they have a small number of people." K said to me taking a bite of her soup
"But at least one thing is good" G said
"The cooks can actually cook" H said finishing G's sentence
"That is true, the old school I went to had terrible food," I told them
"What school doesn't" K added, "So what did B want?"
"Nothing important he just wanted to see where my dorm was" I told spitting out the lie easily
"Oh he was acting really urgent like it was a life death situation if he didn't ask you right then and there," K said
"I guess he was just in a hurry and didn't want to waste time," I told her looking down at my food hating to lie to any of them and taking a bite.
"So do any of you know what we are exactly here for" K asked us
"No not really something about this L guy" G said
"Yeah we just came because we needed a place to stay" H said
"I mean what else could we do. We didn't want to get separated by adoption and we are going to be on our own in a few years anyway so nobody really would want to adopt a teenager." G said
"So this was basically our only option" H said
"It seems we were all in the same boat then" I told them
"It appears so. My family abused me and when the cops found out and arrested them, I had nowhere else to go. I moved around orphanages then and some tried to adopt me but they found others and adopted them instead. Wammy found me while I was moving orphanages and gave me this chance." K said
"Oh boo hoo," said a voice from behind us but we all could have guessed who it could be
"B what is your problem your such a asshole" K said to him standing up so fast making her chair fall over "Do you even care about others feelings when you talk"
"No, not really." B said giving her a wide smile that creeped me out
"Oh come on there is no reason to be a asshole about anything were all in the same boat here," G said
"In the same boat." B said laughing, "Were far from it" B looked like he was ready to punch G when I stood up from my chair and grabbed his hand
"Enough," I said to B, dropping his hand "Why can't we all just get along. There always has to be that one person that wants to ruin everything"
"Your right it is your fault" B said to me looking above me head as he said it
"My fault! Its yours, I've only known you for two days and your all ready like a enemy to me." I said to him
"Interesting," B said looking into my eyes now "And I really wanted to try to be friends, but I guess I will do what the Golden Boy wants" B said starting to walk away
I looked at him flabbergasted that he would even say those words to me. Like everything was my fault. And something in the back of my mind nagged at me that maybe B was right. I shook my head, reaching to run my fingers across my left wrist. Never again. I can't go back down that road. But something told me that I was wrong. That I was just fighting the inevitable.
"Listen don't let B get to you, I'm pretty sure he treats everyone like that" K said
"That's a exaggeration. I'm pretty sure he only treats me this bad" I told her
"No you should of seen when him and Wammy get into it" G said
"Its terrifying. Neither wants to back down but one must usually" H said
"And you know who always wins" G said
"Wammy," I guessed
"No," H said
"Its B. He is never submissive to anyone or anything," G added
"We saw him drive here! Down the road is two stoplights didn't even stop at them. He ran right through them. Wammy got on to him," H said
"He is going to kill someone," K said
"That is if he hasn't already," G said
"Yeah you never know with people like him. It feels like when he is in a room all hell could break loose any second," H said
The conversation we were having centered on B faded away as we started to talk about our goals in life.
"So A what do you want to do," K asked me
"Uh I don't really know," I told her
"Come on you must want to accomplish something," G said
"Yeah I want to accomplish things. But I really just want to live, and I don't see why I should choose things now if I might possibly regret them later. I just want to be happy for once you know. Who knows what life has in store for us," I told them
"Though that is true maybe our lives are predestined," K said
"I think your wrong." Said a voice from the doorway of the dinning room. It appeared to be a girl who had long white hair.
"Hello who are you" K asked
"I'm C" She said sitting down in the chair next to me, "And, who are you?"
"I'm A . . ."
"I'm G and this is H and that's K" G said interrupting me pointing around the table.
"It's nice to meet you all" C said giving us a smile
"You to" K said
I looked up at the clock behind K it said 9:30.
"Well its late I think I'm going to go to bed" I told them and got up heading towards the door "It was nice meeting you C, Goodnight."
I started to head back to my room going through the twisting corridors and up a flight of stairs only to see B down the hall leaning up against a window looking out into the night. He looked up and our eyes meant. So I took off in a sprint towards my room. I slammed my door locking it and jumping into my bed. The only sound in the room was my heavy breathing as I shut my eyes and tried to get to some sleep.
