I sat alone in the corner of the orphanage's bedroom. I was 5 years old at the time. I never talked to the other kids. I didn't want to, not since I was brought here. It was late evening; around 7 P.M. Christmas was only 10 days away. Not like I cared. I never liked Christmas; it was always so depressing. Everyone there was busy playing games and having fun. I remained in the corner, staring out the window. Cars drove in and out of the parking lot. I watched was a small group of people walked through the orphanage doors. Probably another kid for this child's prison. I hated it here. I always prayed for a family to come take me away, but that dream was long gone a while ago..........
"Hello everyone!" Rachel, the orphanage lady, said, walking through the large doors. A group gathered around, eager to met the small girl holding her hand. I remained in my seat as the commotion went on about her. I sat there a long while until a loud wail was heard.
"WAHHHH! Give it back!" I whipped around in surprise. The little girl and the orphanage bully, Jerry, were going at it.
"Give it up girly! The dolly is mine." He yelled. The blonde little girl still held onto the doll with all her might.
"Stop it! It's my mommy's dowy!" Her mommy's dowy-er-dolly? If she were here, her parents must be dead, or left, or something. Her mom must have given her the doll. I thought. Standing, I drew my attenchion to them,
"Hey!" I yelled, walking over. "Give her back her doll." All the kids stood in awe when I spoke. Jerry dropped the doll, and the little girl fell on her bottom,
"Okay." Jerry squeaked. The kids were all staring me, utterly shocked. I never talked that much, so I guess it was a surprise to them. I shrugged, and sat back in my chair. Life went on once I sat, though I didn't expect to she the girl again, that was, until...
"Excuse me?" Turing, I faced the blonde, hugging her dolly.
"Yeah?"
"Tank you."
"Wha?" did she say thank you? No one ever said that to me. No one ever said any thing to me.
"Tank you," she repeated, and then sniffled, "For getting my dowy." I shrugged,
"Don't worry about it."
"No reawy, *sniffle* nobody else would help me get it back. *Sniffle*" She took a step closer. I moved away a little, I didn't really want to talk to her. But I could help but notice her baby blue eyes. They were so bright.
"But...um...y-you might wanna t-try to avoid...avoid...um..."
"Jerry?" she finished. I nodded, then murmured,
"Uh-huh." She blinked a couple times. She seemed to be confused. She had the cutest look on her face. She was so small, and pale.
"How-how o-old are y-you?' I asked, why was I stuttering?
She giggled,
"I'm tree yearths owed. *Sniffle*" She said, holding up 4 fingers. I felt a tingle in my throat, and then chuckled. She stared confused at me.
"Here." I said, putting down her pinky finger. She stared at her hand then noticed the mistake she made.
"Oh!" she squeaked, "Tanks! *Sniffle*" Her eyes were sparkling like stars. I felt like I had seen those eyes before, in a dream maybe. Her rosy cheeks matched her dolls. She began to blab in babyish talk, sniffling here and there. I devoured every word. Her voice chimed like the wind chimes outside. I noticed the kids stopping and watching us talk. I didn't know why they would, but I pushed it aside. She basically was thanking me a million times about her dolly, then stopped,
"You okay?" she asked,
"Uh-huh" I said nodding. She giggled lightly.
"What's your name? *Sniffle*" she asked,
"D-Darien." Why was I stuttering?
"I'm Serena." She said lightly. For some reason, everything else seemed to blur away,
"Hi Serena" I said. Why was I sounding so dumb? I'm so stupid! Stupid, stupid, Stupid!! She cuddled her dolly giggling. So was so adorable!
"Your kiena cute. *Sniffle*" A small oh went across the bystanders. She merely smiled. I suddenly noticed, how close I was to her, and I was gawking at her! I immediately shut my mouth.
"Bedtime everyone!" Rachel said, walking in. "Serena just find a bed okay!" Serena nodded and picked up her small pink bag. She looked around the room clueless.
"Come on," I said. With her doll and bag in her one hand, she used the other hand to old mine. I had to walk slowly; she wasn't very fast. I led her to the bed next to mine.
"Tank you." She squeaked, with a sniffle then a yawn. I watched her set her bag down and cuddled in the bed. Other children were getting in their beds as well. I slowly got in mine.
"Good night." I opened my eyes in surprise. Serena smiled and turned around,
"Sweet Dreams...Serena..."
