Every fortnight, potential parents come and pick and choose children like we're a pick and mix waiting to be selected. The years of being ignored and cast aside have made it my least favourite day...apart from Monday.
I never had the opportunity to meet my real parents. I was left in the cold on the doorstep of Oak Tree orpanage as a baby, and have been here since, for the last
14 years. Today is adoption day,and also my last chance to get adopted. The couples never want older children. Too stroppy apparently. I happen to disagree.
As I wake up,I turn my alarm off and roll to the other side of my bed and grab my earphones.I put on zoellas new vlogmas video-BEST YOUTUBE CHRISTMAS PARTY- whilst doing some makeup. I put in a little bit of effort today,as if some kind of celebrity is going to show up.Doubt it. I decide on some winged eyeliner,concealer,powder,gold eyeshadow,mascara and some burgandy lipstick. Just like Zoe's autumn look. Just as I finish,my phone buzzes. I look at it and realise the text is from Maisy,my best friend. She told me good luck. We have known each other since nursery,and share the same love of youtube. I reply with thankyou,have a lovely day,I'll update you xxxxxxx. She replys back instantly saying you too xxxxxxx and I go downstairs and eat some yogurt and some granola with berries. Luckily,all the other children have eaten and are lining up already so I have the kitchen to myself. Sapphire, a little 5 year old girl with long blonde hair approaches me. "Hey esme"she says to me. She is the only person here that I trust,as ridiculous as that seems. I reply saying hey back and walk to the end of the line,right by the stairs.
