POV: Tess lee Gray

HEY! My names Tess. Tess Lee Gray, my parents never really told me why I was named that. I guess that's because they were never really around.
They would always be at work or hanging out with there friends. I always assumed they would come back after they dropped me off at the orphanage. At the time I had no clue what this place was and I wish I still hadn't now, but I believe everything happens for a reason. I remember the night so clearly, it was cold and crisp outside.
The cold air felt like a slap to the face. The sun was setting and the wind was strong and dangerous. They had told me I had to get dropped off for daycare. Sadly it wasn't true. At the time I was eight years old now I'm 15. Yes I've been here for seven whole years. Times flys. When I got in the car we all sat in silence as my dad started the engine. My mother Abigail turned around and faced towards me. Not one look of sadness or guilt crossed her face. Now if that happened I wouldn't be a bit surprised my mother was cold hearted and if she's alive probably still is. When we had got to the building I got out of the car and shut the car door. My mom put her hand on my back and guided me to the tall brick building. From there on it was a blur.
I wouldn't consider this orphanage bad. It has essentials for life, it provides me with shelter, food and water. I even have my own separate room. The walls are light blue like my eyes. When you first walk in there's a window nook and to the left of that is my bed. I enjoy reading so sitting at the nook has always been my favorite.
As for my looks I have dull blue eyes and long eyelashes. My hairs a dark coffee bean color. I have a button nose that I had got from my grandma. I've seen photos of her, although I've never met her she seemed like she would be a wonderful person. My face is round and I have Chubby cheeks. If your wondering about my body I have a decent body my legs are on the bigger side, but i have a small waist and stomach.
Anyways it's almost lights out hours so I have to go before I get in to trouble.
