Patrick sat with his head against the headboard of his bed that is nearly falling apart. He felt bored and angry. Bored, because it was adoption day, and angry because he came here when he was thirteen, and no one wanted to adopt a teenager.
He was seventeen anyways, so one more year, and he'd be out of this dump and off to college. He's already been qualified for many top music schools, and has about five interviews for scholarships. It was in his best interest to get a scholarship, because before the accident, his parents weren't really planning for his college fund. He barely has enough to buy used books for his freshman year.
There was a knock on his door and he got up to answer it. On the other side stood head mistress Johlynn and a young couple, maybe a few years older than me. The man had black fringe and tattoos on his arms and the woman had red hair and was about the same height of the man. He was short, but Patrick is really not one to be talking.
"Patrick, this is Mr. Wentz, and his girlfriend Ms. Simpson." Head mistress Johlynn said motioning to the younger couple behind her. "They're here to interview you." She said.
"Oh, what school are they from?" He was kind of confused as to why a school would send representatives to interview for a scholarship with such little advance notice.
"They're not from a school, they're here to adopt you." She told him and his jaw dropped. No one has ever even asked to adopt him.
