avalon

avalon's notebook;
leaving the adoption center is something i'd never quite think of, i've been here for too long. of course, all the years i've been here you'd think i'd make a few friends but i didn't. only one that has lasted anyways, i've always wanted to get adopted and such but nothing like that has happened for me just yet. jacob, he's my only friend here. he teaches me all types of things. nothing bad, just like everyday things. stuff like math, science, history. you know, things you'd learn in school.

i slipped my notebook between the mattress before i go to sleep, i have my night gown on already so i'm pretty much set for bed. i don't have a lot of clothes, only the ones this place provided so i guess i'm lucky for what i have. my body shot up from my bed, due to a loud knocking sounding from my small room's door. it's almost 9:15, who could be here past 8? i open my door to find mrs.shaw, shes the administrator also known as the person we have to obey. kind of like our guardian for now.

"avalon, or ava. whatever your name is, there will be someone here tomorrow to look at all the kids around 1:00pm. so, i suggest you clean your room, look nice, dress nice, and so on if you want to get adopted." she informs me, leaning against the door frame. "okay, mrs.shaw and my name is avalon but people call me ava for short." i smile politely, leaving her rolling her eyes.

wow, somebody actually might adopt me. this is all so sudden, i really hope i get adopted. i'm so sick of living here, i just want to sneak out. but, sadly i know better and would never do it. but, anyway i am happy for once in this place. i skip to bed, happier than ever and go back to my previous place. i better write this in my notebook.
