My Scary New World

crazy people

She sighed defeatedly. "I'm your guardian angel, and a family friend. Your actual family... well, was."

I bolted up right, and that seemed to startle her, but I couldn't careless at the moment. They or at least she knew or knows my parents!

I was about to scream at her in elation, but would this mean that I'm not going to see Cath or the others. I can't just drop them and go with my actual family. But that's the thing, kids get adopted all the time, and yeah it's heart breaking to see others go, but I have been in that very orphanage scince before I could remember. That's all I knew was that home, and I knew my parents would come for me some day.

"So when am I leaving?" I'm basically bouncing from where I lay, and they both look up in shock.

I love Ms, Cath, but I think it's time for me to go to my actual family. Start a new, find out where I actually come from, who I actually come from for that matter.

"Nova, I have lost contact with your family a long time ago, and the last time I saw them was the night of... well I can't get into that at the moment."

"So I'm not going to meet them?" Even to me I sounded desperate.

She hesitated "not... right now."

What does that mean. Its either I'm going to see them or not, why was that so hard to say? Not right now. For all I know you and your silent associate are some sort of kidnappers. The nurse that was in here earlier left a bit ago.

Reality dawned on me. I quickly looked up at her with wide eyes. They probably were kidnappers, they could even be working with the guy that dragged me in his car at first! They could be feeding me false hope and getting in my mind. Trying to get me to trust them.

They were in fact, people that I just met. What am I thinking?! And am I really that eager to leave everything I accomplished just for people who couldn't and didn't take care of me? No, I knew scince the day Ms, Cath treated me as her own that was the day she was my mom. I shouldn't really say day, it more as stretched over a period of time, and I was mad that I was so hesitant over her in the beginning.

"I think you guys should leave." Tears are starting to cloud my vision. Quickly blinking them away when I saw there confused expressions. No, as much as it pains me not knowing my parents and the fact that they knew them. I was itching to find out something, anything about them, like their names for example. But I can't leave Cath and the others. I won't do that to her, and I think finding out information will just make me more curious.

"Nova I-" I shook my head
"Go." I said sternly looking into her soft eyes.

The guy stepped forward and put a hand on her shoulder as she was about to continue.

He shook his head sadly at her and her eyes looked even more sad.

"I don't know you, and for all I know you guys could be telling me lies. So I would appreciate it if you guys left." I said sternly.

The guy nodded and he tapped her shoulder Telling her get up. But she was hesitant looking between me and him.

"Do you have any questions about them?" She said looking panicked "there names where-"

I interrupted her "no, I think knowing there names will be...worse." I breathed out.

She pressed her lips together and nodded slowly.

They started heading toward the door. No! Come back! Your my only pieace of information about where I come from that I have! I silently screamed at them, and the opportunity for that was running out. Seeing them almost gone has my heart racing and my palms starting to sweat. My mouth was opening and closing, with unspoken plead for them to come back.
