Two Weeks Later
Mallory had been feeling Weird lately; she was on schedule to be adopted by a lovely couple who were unable to have children of their own. For some reason Mallory felt... Almost guilty? She felt like she was almost betraying her mom in some way by going with them. She sat on her floor staring off looking and thinking about nothing in particular. She soon felt herself slowly drift off.
*****several hours later*****
She woke up to someone shaking her rather aggressively "mal get up, hurry" she slowly looked up and realized that the person shaking her was her friend Tiana. "What is it T?" she questioned getting up. "It's dinner time and you're going to miss it, you're lucky I'm such a good friend and I'm waking you up" said her friend as she rushed out of the room. "Whatever "Mallory whispered under her breath slowly following her friend out of the room.
Mallory couldn't seem to focus on the conversation that the others were having. She was thinking about what the couple would be like. "Earth to Mallory" snapped at one of the other girls." What?" replied Mallory, still rather startled.
"We want to know how you feel about being adopted!" said some of the girls "um, excited? I guess I don't know" said Mallory in a not so happy tone. "Mallory, this is a great opportunity, just try to be more excited," said one of the caretakers at the orphanage, Mrs.dundle. "Yeah, you're right I'm just tired, I'm going to head to bed early" said Mallory getting up and putting her plate in the sink. Heading to her room.
