Today is adoption day, the day where all the 'kids' get adopted by loving parents. Expect me. I'm unwanted, due to my insanity, so i can't go to the adoption room because all of the caretakers are scared that i might 'hurt' the adopters or the kids. I'm never aloud to come out of my room, because I'm 'crazy' as Olivia refers it. I'm pretty sure I'm going to be send to an asylum, since I'm unwanted and 'insane'. I don't have much clothes, or shoes. I'm always barefoot, and my outfit is a ripped shirt and tight jeans. The caretakers refuse to buy me clothes because i 'misbehave' and i don't deserve it. Olivia comes in, with a tray full of carrots, onions and beans. She puts it down on my table. "Here, eat this. You look very pale." She says. I scoff. "Since when do you care?" I replied harshly. "Since you came here, it's my job." She states. "Well, if you really did care,you wouldn't me threating me about sending me to a asylum. You know thats one of my biggest fears, apart from cars." I say. You already know why i'm afraid of cars. "It's not my fault your crazy. It's not yours either. But, in a asylum they can help you get better, and you can socialize better with the other.... kids." She replies. "Oh, you mean the stuck up creepy excuses for kids? Oh, some of them might be even more 'crazy' then me." I state. I've heard of alice Liddell, the one who lost her parents in a house fire. Apparently, she's 14, just like me. (Yep, i'm bringing wonderland to the story) "Well, maybe you can become friends with alice Liddell?" She says. "Friends?" I scoff. "Friendship is not a word to me. Alice is alot crazier then i am, i bet her wonderland is in ruins already." I state. "Well, Mrs. Tonal told me to tell you to pack up, your moving to the asylum tomorrow." My eyes widened. "Already?! T-tomorrow?!" I stutter. "No, i can't! Give me one more chance! I don't want to go!" I yell. "I'm very sorry mae... but i can't do anything about her decision. She is the headmaster of the orpanage you know. I only follow her orders, now, pack your things. Your leaving tomorrow." She says plainly before she leaves. Well, i guess now i'm officially crazy.
