I don't own twilight.
Chapter 3. The Abandoned
Sister Stella woke up in the middle of the night. She quickly stepped out of the bed, put on her jacket and went for the keys downstairs. As she gets nearer and nearer the door, the louder the cry sounds. When she peeked at the little brown box, the sound stopped. It's a baby boy, wrapped around him was a white cloth embroidered with a name Edward.
She gently lifted the baby and put him in her arms. "Edward?" And the baby chuckled as he heard the nun whispered, the wonder how babies react like they were understanding things said by adults. "You must have been very cold and hungry then?" The baby was so tiny, pearly white skin, rosy cheeks, his hair was brown and his eyes were green. He's so beautiful that it is a pity that he must have not been fed for days. "How could abandon you little boy? When you are so beautiful?" And the baby chuckled once again. "Ahh… You think you could already understand what I'm saying, huh? Well, I don't want to get you growing conceited…" A smile from the face of the nun aligned as she carried the baby inside the orphanage. "Well, Edward, welcome home…"
Six years later…
"Sister Stella! Sister Stella!" Edward was running along the corridors of the orphanage, waving his hand. As the nun recognized her and stopped, Edward stood in front of her, fixed his shirt up and turned all around trying to model his clothes. "So, Sister Stella, how do I look?" Asking the nun and expecting of a good result. "Of course you look so wonderful my dear. You always look good in any kind of clothes you wear." She said while pinching the boy's nose. "Do you think one of them will like me today, sister?" His face was so hopeful and angelic. "Of course my dear, they will like you coz you're one of the kindest, sweetest, and talented boy here in the orphanage." "Thank you very much sister!" He gave the nun a huge hug and run the fastest run he could. "Edward! Hold on a second kiddo! Come here!" and he came back catching his breath. "Happy birthday kid! You thought I forgot about it? Well, here's something for you." She took out something from her pocket, put it on Edward's neck. "Sister Stella! Thank you! This is the best gift ever! I thought no one will remember… Thank you!" The boy gave the nun a tight hug, once again, and tears fell down his face. "Don't cry my dear, this is your day… go on now and wish for them to choose you today." Then Edward took his way to the corridor while holding the pendant of the necklace. It's a silver little cross engraved with roses in it.
