It was passed midnight. In the silence of the night I tossed about in bed.Sleep seemed to escape me.I could not relax for my mind was full of thoughts. What an irony it was.I was an abondoned child, left at an orphanage. My mother left me when I should never have been left alone, at the age of four. I despise her for running away, afterall she was my mother, my own mother. How could she leave me at the age of four? I was flabbergasted. From that day onwards, I stopped looking for monsters under my bed because I realized they are inside us. Teras tickled down my face as I recalled these events.
This morning, authorities of the orphanage informed me that my mother was back for me, after all these years. For a moment I couldn't believe my ears. A series of thoughts ran through my mind. Before I could return to my senses I saw her and didn't even see any remorse on her face. No expressions, she was point blank. I had practised isaying it a hundred times but when the moment came I just could'nt open my mouth. I wanted to tell her that I hate her for abandoning me. I don't care if she is abashed now. But she was my mother, I ran towards her. Her scent was the same, after all these years and I still remember it. She told me that she came to get me back and she was sorry. I felt a relief in her arms, she consoled me, tears streaked down through my cheeks.
There was some paper work left so I had to stay in the orphanage for one more night, thoughts jumbled in my mind. I tossed again. Part of me wanted to go with her and part of me accused her for abandioning me
Next morning I packed my bags and was ready to go. A wild, quick thought ran across my mind. what if she abandons me again? I looked longingly at her and realized your world is the one which you create for yourself, and this was my world.It's better to stay away from those whom you can't trust. And I can't trust her with my life again. I looked up at her smiled and turned back.
