Winnie knew Louise was going to want to go to the new family; and Winnie didn't want her little sister to be all alone, but she also didn't want to leave her best friend. Winnie was torn. She knew what was best though. Sighing, she walked up to Ella. "I... I have a chance to be adopted. I... I'm going to... to..." she couldn't continue.  Not with Ella giving her the understanding eyes. "Not go." Winnie said, cringing at her lie.  "Oh! Well, thanks." said Ella, embracing Winnie. Winnie sighed. Ella pulled away. "Wait...are you...lying to me?" she asked, hatred and sympathy filling her eyes. Winnie suddenly burst into tears. "Yes! Yes I am, and I want to get adopted, but I don't want to leave you but--" Winnie cut herself off, sobs overflowing her. Ella embraced her, and Winnie sobbed into her shoulder. She cried and cried and cried. The tears soaked Ella's shoulder. "Winnie, if you want to go, then go. It's ok with me. This is a one time thing and-" Ella cut off, because she couldn't bare to hear the sobs coming from Winnie. She was about to cry herself as Winnie looked up at her. "Really?" She asked. Ella smiled. "Yeah."
