Sitting myself into the bathroom sink from the step stool I had pulled up to it and stare into the mirror to see black eyes looking back, two days ago I have died and only awake again as a three year old but by now I'm over the shock.  Blond hair sits on top of my head like a nest and I can clearly see I don't have as much of baby fat as I should since this child has a horrible mother that hardly does anything to keep him alive from what I had seen these last two days.

'Its not a wonder why he left but now it's my life.'

Suddenly the front door is thrown open and clicking heels storm inside.

"Where is that little brat?" A women's voice hissed as I hear her heels get closer until she's standing in the door way.

"There you are." I can tell her tone and smile are fake as she picks me up from the sink and bring me to the living room where she drops me onto the couch, I watch as she moves around the place putting what little I have into a large backpack with a piece of torn paper pinned to it.

".....getting rid of it....." I hear her mumble when she passed by before come back to shove a random pacifier into my mouth and pick me off the couch, her grib is tight enough to leave bruises but I didn't complain. I guess the woman is too in impatient to get rid of me as she hurried into a near by subway and onto the second train but before I know it we're on the streets again, dread claws at me when I saw we passed a glowing sign saying we're entering the red light district.

'Where is she taking me?'

After walking a block we enter a multi floored building and immediately I recognize it as a brothel by the half naked ladies walking around, we take the elevator up to a floor and down the hall. She drops me onto the floor at a door before tying the child leash she forced onto me while we were on the train to the door handle and throws the bag next me before storming away, leaving me completely shock when she flipped the middle finger at me with a smile before the elevator doors shut.

'THIS BITCH IS LEAVING ME IN A BROTHEL!?!!? WHAT IS WRONG WITH HER!?!'

Fear and hunger eats away at me as I continue to sit there on the cold hard floor, the elevator door open once again to reveal a decent dressed lady and she stops walking when she spots me after taking her eyes off her phone.

"Why hello there, what are you doing here?" With a sweet voice she kneels before me but I just continue to stare at her, not knowing what to do since I can't tell if she knows whoever lives in this room or not. She rise an eyebrow at my silence before grabbing my bag and read the note once she noticed it, her jaws dropped at whatever info the woman had written on it.

"Come on sweetheart, you're coming with me until he gets back." She unties the leash and sit me on her hip as her another hand gets my bag before walking to what I guess is her room one door down, she gently put me on her bed.

"Here you go sweetheart, I'm sorry but this is all I have in here...... you're thin." She mumbled the last part to herself as she hands me a cracker from a pack that's setting on her desk after putting my bag next to me, I pull the pacifier that's been setting in my mouth the whole time and lay it on the bed. I grabbed the cracker and bite a small piece of a corner off, the lady's smile grows bigger.

A cracker and half later a tall dude walks pass the room but once the lady sees him she jumps up off the bed and calls out to him, I didn't pay attention to them as they talk since I was more interested in eating the rest of my cracker.

"Hey" Suddenly the tall dude is kneeling next to the bed causing me to try to hide my cracker  with my body making the dud chuckle and give a smile.

"It's ok, I'm not going to take away your cracker." After relaxing and go back to eating I take in the dude, he has blonde hair like me but mine is a shade or two darker in a long braid with the sides of his head shaved as a dragon tattoo lays on one side and also have the same black eyes. The more I stare the more I see that we look alike except a few simple features.

'So the woman dropped me off at a relative.'

"I'm your big brother." He said surprisingly in a gentle voice in response of my confused expression.

'oh, she abandon him too.'

"Bu, yo my bu?" I asked shocking both since this is the first time I have spoken.

"Yes, your brother." A kind smile is placed on his lips which I give him a smile of my own with a happy giggle and crawl my way to him to throw my arms around his neck, he stands after holding me in place.

"Thank you." He whispered to the lady on the way out of her room, he unlock his door but had to hold me and my bag awkwardly to do so. He places me on my feet in the middle of his room which is middle size with shower in upper left corner while his bed rests in the upper right, a shelf of different things in the lower left corner next to the door. Brother sits on the floor next to me and started going through my bag, he pulls out a few pairs of clothes with shoes, another pacifier, and two broken toys. At the very few things I have causes him to sigh before picking up a random pair of shorts and underwear.

"Bath time." He grabs ahold of my hand and lead me into his shower, with his help I pull of my clothes causing he frowns at the forming bruises on my side once seeing them. Once done with the bath he dries and dress me before brushing my hair, he leaves me on his bed with the two broken toys to entertain me while he takes his own shower but when he got he finds me asleep. With a sad smile he undid his braid before sliding into bed and carefully lay my small body on his chest with a hand rubbing my back.
