  I grabbed Paris's hand and led her towards my house.

  "Where are we going?" Paris asked, still a little shy.

  "We are going to your new home." I let out a gentle smile reassuring her. "It's okay, I won't bite. What's on your mind?"

  "Well.. Uh... I was wondering... Why am I going to live with you? What about my mommy and daddy?"

  "Paris, they aren't here right now." My cheeks went red. I didn't want to tell her the truth. The cold hard truth. "They are in a better place now."

  "Oh okay." The ambiance grew silent. She grew silent.

  "Paris it will be fine. I'll look after you."

  As we walk home, she is a lot more happy and lively than before.asking anything coming to her mind. Where's you house? Will I get my own room? What's for dinner?. We approach my house and she laughs

"It's beautiful!"

"Thank you, but you go inside and I'll build your room next to mine."

"Okay." She laughs. I watch her scurry inside and follow her. 

  "Jeremy. Are you home?" No response. I call out again, still receiving no response. "Oh whatever." I roll my eyes but see a note on the side of the furnace.

It reads: 

Mya,

  I went to get some seeds for farming. We ran out of wood so I'm getting some as well. 

                                                    Be back soon,

                                                                       Jeremy :]

  How nice of him. I didn't even realize that we were in need of food but oh well.

  I walked over to my chest and took out wood.

  "Mya, can I help?"

  "Paris? Do you want to help build your room?" She nodded and put out her hand. I placed some wood in her hand. It was strange that Jeremy said we were out but we really had tons of it left. "Follow me." I led Paris outside, next to my room. i placed the first few blocks and she staked the others on top. Muttering words to myself, I put in glass and a door. Also, she put down a bed. "You knew you were coming here?"

  "Yes. I know what happened Mya."

  "I'm sorry though." A tear that looked like she didn't want to fall loosely trickled down her rosy cheeks. Right after I noticed it, she drew her finger upward and wiped the tear off her face.

  "It's okay. I mean I do have you now. Don't I?" 

  I grinned. "Yes Paris. I'm always here for you."

******

  Paris finished off her austere room placing a few of her simple items in the chest. I decided to make her some dinner. I hummed to myself as I combined eggs, pumpkins, and sugar to make pie. I cooked it and cut it into slivers.

  "Here ya go Paris." I smiled.

  "Why thank you." She took a small nibble and rubbed her tummy. "It's amazing." I laughed.

  "Well, I'll be outside farming, want to join me?"

  "Sure, after I finish this pie."

  I walked outside and smiled. Today was a lot better than before. I bonded with Paris well. I wish Cobb would return. I don't know what is with him lately.

  I took out my hoe and harvested all the good wheat.

  "My turn." Paris came up behind me and I jumped a little. I gently handed her the seeds and hoe. She knew what to do and before long, she had the entire garden replenished. I blinked a couple of times.

  "Thanks." I said astonished. 

  "Welcome."

  "Paris, imma go look for Cobb. Can you stay here?" She nodded and returned inside.

*******

"Cobb! COBB! I'm sorry if I angered you. Please come home!" There was no response. I tried several times but finally resorted and went home to Paris.

*******

  "Hello." Jeremy greeted.

  "Hey, where were you? We had plenty of wood and there aren't any new seeds."

  "Nowhere. Who's the girl?"

  "That's Paris."

  "Why is she here?"

  "I'm watching her. There was a fire in her village and her dad was murdered."

  "Really."

   "What?" I was offended by his harsh tone. This had nothing to do with him.

  "JUST BECAUSE SOMEONES PARENT DIED DOESN'T MEAN YOU ADOPT THEM."

  I lost it. I ran up to him and slapped him, leaving a mark. "WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU, THIS IS A LITTLE GIRL WE ARE TALKING ABOUT. BESIDES ITS MY HOUSE."

  Paris must of heard me. She emerged from her room, rubbing her tired eyes.

  "This thing is what you are keeping?" Jeremy questioned.

  "Out now." I clenched my teeth together. He didn't budge. "NOW!" 

  He slammed the door and ran. I moved my feet to a now weeping Paris. "Shhhh. It's okay. I'm here now." I comforted her and brought her to bed.

  After an hour I went to bed myself. I slowly dozed off.

**************

"HELP!"

I hear a scream and immediately run to Paris's room and see something else there.

"Please don't hurt me, I don't want to hurt you." She cries.

I run in and push the thing off her and pull her into a hug.

"Paris it is okay." I follow her crying eyes to the corner of the room and see something struggling on its side. I pull away and walk to it, my sword drawn. I look down and see in front of me a pig.
