After Angela left Nick walked back to the table and sat down. After a long silence, Nick's mom broke the silence and Nick looked up from his food that he was playing with.
"Nick, your father and I have been talking about a decision we have to make and want your opinion." She said.
"What is it?" Nick asked
"Well, we have noticed that you and Angela have been getting along quite well. And we enjoy having Angela around. So your father and I have decided that we want to adopt Angela." She let out a long breath and waited. Nick thought it over. A sister. Sure she is not the same gender, but she is the same age and she seems interested in many of the things that he likes.
"That would be okay with me." he said indifferently.
"Okay, we will go to the orphanage tomorrow and do this as a family. she said, " But tonight we must get a bedroom ready and clean a little bit." Nick sighed
"Okay." and with that, they got up and Mrs. Peterson did the dishes and Nick went to clean his room, while Mr. Peterson got out the vacuum.
