"Hey," My friend yelled, galloping over to me. "Budder! Guess what."
The forest green colt ran up to me, flapping his small wings. His blaze orange mane flopping in the wind as he ran. He's excited. "Ghosts in your bed again?" I replied sarcastically.
"No," He said, stopping two inches from my face. "I'm getting adopted!"
"Great..." I said looking down. "Th-that's great..."
"Hey, you'll be adopted someday." His dark brown eyes staring into mine. "And if not, you'll be out of here when you're eighteen."
"Thanks Hunt." I said smiling.
"No prob Budder." He said, turning away. "I might see ya somewhere."
I simply nod as he flies to his new family.
Later that night, I sat in my room wondering if I would be adopted. I heard a small knock on the door, the click of the handle, and the hinges creak open. "Budder?" A lady said, stepping into the dark room and turning on the lights.
A hiss slips from my mouth as light fills the room. "What?" I say covering my eyes with my hoof.
"Some one came in late," The dark blue pegasus that said I would never be adopted said, with a look that said 'how in the name of Celestia'. "The young mare wants to adopt you."
Her wing brushed a lock of dark purple hair out of her face. "Okay," I say, climbing of the bed. "Are you sure?" I wondered if I should really trust her words.
"Yes I'm sure," She said. "Now come on!" Her voice turn to slight anger.
When we arrived I had realized that I had been given false hope of getting out of my own living Tarturus.
"Sorry sweaty," The young, well-to-do unicorn mare said. "I just thought you would be more well mannered because of your parents." I felt tears growing in my eyes.
"My parents died when I was to young to remember them!" I screamed at her. "I learned nothing from them but not to care about anyone! They all just leave you in the end!" Tears were rolling down my face. The mare's ears were down and she had to step back a little to get me out of her personal space.
She was surprised. At what I said. They all were. I turned and sniffed, starting to trot back to my room. I stopped and turned my head back. "I don't think I want to care about anyone, no matter how much they care about me."
I went back to my room, shut the door, turned out the lights, and went to bed. I didn't want to care. If I couldn't care, whats the point of trying to get adopted then. Sleep came fast, but the dream, explainable.
_yay, finally done with the chapter! woohoo! well i'm tired, night
