A Cry

     A sudden cry filled the room.

     "Ugh, shut it up, would you?" said the lady on the supposed hospital bed. It wasn't a very pretty room. At all. It had plain white walls with stains all over them. Plain wooded floors with clothing and other things all over them. It really didn't look like a hospital but it was all the lady was willing to pay. She really didn't care.

     "I'm sorry ma'am, would you like to hold her" the nurse said.

     The lady responded. "Why does it matter, she's being taken away anyways?"

     "Well I just thought you might have wanted to see her before she goes away-" the nurse tried to say before being interrupted by a cigarette being hit multiple times on the lady's hand.

     The child was being taken away for multiple reasons. The mother was very unstable. She drank, smoked, and really just was an awful person. So the child will go to a orphanage untill she turns five.

...

"Here, her names Missy"

"Mhm"

"Do the best you can cause I dont know how long she'll even live with her issues"

Four Years Later

-Missy Pov-

I had awoken to the sound of my roommates, as Ms.Amy would say, alarm clock. I heard her click it so it would stop and heard the bedroom door close. 'She must have left i thought'. I hoped out my bed to go wash my face and use the restroom. After, I grabbed my stuffy and went out.

I never have breakfast with the others kids. They always pick on me and tell me things like "Why don't you act like us" or "You're so odd". They will say anything just to be rude to me. So, most the time I just go to the bench in the playroom and read my book till there all finished.

...

It's playtime. Most kids would be playing with there dolls or their cars but I dont find any of those things entertaining. Ms.Amy says I'm an old soul or I'm to mature for my age. I may be, but I can't help it.

...

Its outside time. Meaning we all go outside till lunch. Winter is always the best for me. I find it so pretty. The white glittering snow the cloudy skies, and the colder weather.

My favorite spot would probably be the swing on the tall tree by the pond, which is frozen for the winter.

I would go straight there and read most of the time. But today I feel like doing something else. I had carried my sketch book with me so I might as well draw, but what?

I looked around to see if I could get inspired by somthing. 'Mhmmm' I thought, still looking around. 'Maybe I will just draw bunny'.

Bunny is a plushy I gotten from my Mother. He was an off-white color with light gray spots all over. He had big black eyes with a sparkling effect. One part I dont nessasarily like are the stitches all over. Most of them were from the other kids but a few may have been from my clumsiness. There was one on his leg, arm, tummy, and his ear. Ms.Amy had stitched him up. She does a really good job but I think she's getting tired of doing so.

Oh well. So I start to draw my picture when I feel tired. 'Maybe just a small nap won't hurt anything'.

...

"Missy" said a voice.

I had woken up to a voice I have recognized to be Ms.Amy's. It was pretty easy to recognize. It was deeper than what a regular lady's voice and it was so monotone.

"Its time to head inside" she said.

"Ok, I'll be on my way" I replied.

She had already started her way inside when I replied. But before I could out of the corner of my eye I saw a pitch black figure move. "Huh" I had thought I said to my self but apparently Ms.Amy heard.

"Did you say somthing?" she asked.

"Ummm, no I was just talking to myself" I said.

"Ok"

...

It was bedtime now and I was glad. I am so tired. After I washed my face off and changed into my pajamas I grabbed bunny and headed to my comfy bed. I turned the night light off but realize my "roommate's" was still on.

"Can you turn that off im trying to sleep" i asked.

"No can do" she replied.

"Ugh, whatever".

"I will when I'm done though!"

"Mmmmk".

"Question?"

"What?" I asked.

"What is your name?" She asked.

"Mmm, Missy" I said in a sleepy voice. "Your's?"

"Isabella"

"Isabella Solace"
