"Y/n, wake up. Mama says you have to set the table today!" says a small voice in your right ear. You groan and take the pillow to cover your face, but the small boy climbs on top of your bed and takes it from you.
"Y/n" he whines "don't you want to be able to play later?". You take a deep breath and flutter your eyes open to see a small boy with messy brown hair and bright blue eyes. "Yay! I'll let mama know you're coming" he exclaims as he hops off your bed and runs off into the hallway.
You rise out of bed and grab your clothes and a hairbrush from your nightstand. You snake your way through the children getting ready with your eyes only half open. Just as you're about to reach the bathroom door, you hit into a tall figure.
"Hey, you know you're supposed to walk with your eyes open right" a low and raspy voice says sarcastically, putting emphasis on the word open.
"Sorry Ray" you say with a tired laugh. The 15 year old forms his hand into a fist and softly bangs it on top of your head "Ow!"
"Relax, it didn't hurt." he says, drawing out the first word "I'll see you downstairs". He continues down the hallway as you reach for the handle of the bathroom door and twist it. You step inside and get dressed into your white button up and white skirt. You look into the mirror and your (e/c) eyes widen.
Your (h/c) hair is a mess, with knots left and right.
'I don't think i slept at all last night'
You force the hairbrush through your hair, brushing and pulling it until it flattens out. You then brush your teeth and head back into the hallway. You hurry back into the bedroom and put on a pair of white socks and you lace up your black and white converse.
"Y/n, can you lace my shoes for me?" a little blonde girl asks, holding up her baby pink sneakers.
"Sure Conny" you say as you pat next to you on your bed, signaling for her to sit. The girl walks to your bed and sits as you stand up and go onto your knees on the floor to be leveled with her feet. "When you meet your new family, I hope they'll teach you how to tie your shoes" you joke as she giggles.
"I hope so too, I don't know if i'll be able to get ready without your help" she says while looking down at you. You stand up on your feet and reach down to pick her up from under her arms as she giggles. You place her on your hip and walk into the hallway, down the stairs, and through the doors of the dining room, where you're greeted by more children.
"Good morning Y/n!" a ginger girl exclaims as she walks over to you with energy, her big green eyes showing her happiness.
"Morning Emma" you say as you do a little wave towards her. You continue walking until you're greeted by a boy holding some plates.
"Morning Y/n" says a towering boy with platinum hair "How'd you sleep?"
"Eh, same as usual" You say with a slight smile and tired eyes, taking the plates out of his hands and walking over to the tables. One by one you set down each plate in the spaces with an accompanying seat. After the plates comes the spoons, forks, cups, and napkins. Once all the silverware is placed on all three tables, you wave over a little girl with brown curly hair and big brown eyes.
"Jemima, can you please ring this for me?" You ask as you bend down and hand the medium sized bell to the girl and she nods. She then starts skipping and ringing the bell aggressively, yelling that breakfast is ready.
