As she looked out her window,she sighed.The place was a living heck to Maci, because her parents had died there many years ago along with her to siblings.She was only twelve when the fire killed them.Being the only surviver,with no other family to care for her,she was set up for adoption.She was seventeen now,and  a couple who couldn't have kids of their own coming to the orfanange.But the thing about Maci was that she was unique. She was awkward, and antisocial in most peoples' opinions,but to the few loyal friends she had,in their opinions she was smart,quiet,creative,and curious.Sometimes she'd sneak out and go into the woods to draw where it's peaceful and quiet.But now she sat watching the young couple's car ride up to the glass doors.Miss Karol opened the bedroom door and asked
"Macy darling?Would you like to come down?The couple is here."
She answers quietly,"Yes ma'am,"
"Good."

5 minutes later

Maci shyly walks down the stairs.in nothing but a blue T-shirt and jeans.The other kids,who were where fanceier things,snickered and teased her.She only sighed and stayed behind the younger children. The couple walked through the doors,one a tall dark hair man the other a kind looking woman with chestnut brown and a green shirt.Both looked about in their 20s.Probably liking for a toddler or kid,so teens might be out of question.They look around and introduced themselves.The man was Mitch Harris and the woman was Katy Harris,and they explained that they were unable to have a child.Karol asked what kind they might be looking for,and Katy answered,"A kid around six to ten years old,".I sighed was I started back up the stairs a little disappointed.I've been trying to get adopted ever since I came,but I gave up after a while.After the couple looked at the children and Mitch pulled Katy to the side
"Kate have you ever considered us getting a older child or teen maybe?"
