"where's my mom and dad? my uncle? aunt?" i ask the doctor who treats my wound.

i tried to enter the burning house by breaking the windows glass with my fist but couldn't see anything through the flames. it was impossible for me to enter the house without dying. it was pretty obvious that they were all dead, but i just wanted it to be confirmed. "i'm sorry, mab. but they all died in the accident."

i let the tears fall from my face. "b-but how did it happen? how did the fire start?"

the doctor finishes wrapping my wound up and sits in a chair in front of me. "we're still uncertain as to what caused the fire which is why the police are still investigationg the area."

we're silent for a moment before i ask him one last question. "what will happen to me?"

there was a moment of pause. "you're going to be put in an orphanage, mab."
