The accident

1

"What do you want me to do with this? " the lady asked the man. She had just took a girl from the hospital as the man paid her to do so.

The lady looked down at the small baby in her arms. She had been born a couple of weeks early as the mother had gotten in an accident. Though the man had commanded to kidnap the child way before.

"I don't care what you do with it. Leave it at the park or at an orphanage or something. " the man said walking away.

The lady called for him but he didn't look back. The fuck was she going to do with this baby.

She decided to leave the baby in a homeless people area. Where people without homes gathered around at. She left it close by so the people could hear it.

Then the lady sprinted away. Bot long after the baby started to cry and attracted the people there. They honestly weren't in the condition to look after a baby but there was a lady who had just had a baby. She decided to feed the child until it grew up.

They looked after the kid until she was around 4 she had gotten close to the child of the woman who would feed her. But after a while that woman and their kid left. Then the others took responsibility for the child. There were some that mentioned leaving the child in an orphanage but it was alittle to late.

As the people there got used to the little girl. And she was quite fun to have around while asking or selling stuff for money as the child was so cute and pretty even in her raggy and dirty clothes.

The woman who had fed and looked after her had named her Grace...

"Imma go to the park! " Grace yelled to let the others know on where she was going.

She had been running around the city with other kids.

Grace ran to the park she had seen the other night and sat on a bench. She looked down at her feet that had blisters and dirt on them and lifted them up onto the bench.

She was used to all the injuries she got especially the ones she got on her feet as there was rarely any shoes. Her hands also had scratches and blisters on them but again she was very used to it so she didn't really complain.

Well at least she was somewhat clean as one of the adults took her somewhere to get cleaned. She looked back up and eyed the children who were playing at the playground.

She would sometimes try and play with the kids it would be fine until the person who was looking after the kids or their parents came. They would be scolded for playing with her most of the time.

So she just stayed away from the kids and only went to the park to watch them or play alone ignoring any kid who approached her or warned them not to play with her saying their parents would get angry.

She got bored of sitting so she went to the empty swing. She swung herself which wasn't that fun since her feet didn't really touch the ground. "Want me to push you? " she heard someone say.

She looked up and her eyes met green eyes that were just like hers. "But I'm dirty... " She said to her as the lady needed to touch her to push her.

"It's okay, so do you? " the lady said again. Grace shyly nodded and the lady smiled. The lady swung her high and Grace loved it. The only time she would go this high is when she would go with an adult or one of the kids.

Grace asked for the lady to stop as she figured the lady was tired now. "Thank you. " Grace said fiddling with her finger. "Your welcome, what's your name? " the lady asked Grace.

"Grace. What's yours? "

"My name is Elizabeth but you can call me Lizzie. " Grace nodded. "Where are your uh parents... " Lizzie asked her voice getting lower.
