Time skip.. A month.....
"And, you're sure you want to adopt Jose Lucas?" The adoption agent asked, her eyes looking over her glasses.
That's right. Artemis and Wally were finally adopting a baby. He's about six months old. His name is Jose Lucas and soon he'll be Jose Lucas West. About a month after that nightmare filled night Wally brought Artemis to this adoption center and they fell in love with the little boy.
"Yes ma'am," Wally said squeezing Artemis's hand.
"Well, since you have the paper work, and the money, you may take Jose home in two months."
"Two months?" Artemis's voice cracked. Yet again, her and Wally would have to wait for their baby.
"Yes. The paper work has to be signed by Mr. Wyatt. Then sent over to the parents for them to sign. If there's any trouble with the parents, you may not be able to adopt Jose."
"What?!" Wally exclaimed jumping out of his chair.
"Wally, please sit back down," Artemis begged.
"No! This is horrible. We can't wait for two months!"
"Mr. West, you must see that we try our hardest to help you. If we can we could make it next month. But it depends on the parents," The agent said.
"We met the parents. The drunk, broke parents. There's no way they would give us their son. Come on Artemis. We're leaving!" Wally said taking my hand and pulling me out of my chair.
"All the other adoption services would do the same thing!" The agent called as we walked out of her office. Artemis tried to hide them, but forbidden tears ran down her face. What would they do now?
