Cryptic Love

Chapter 16.

**Zayn's P.O.V**

     We walked into the small adoption center, why are we here? I have no idea, Ty said he saw a flyer which was odd but okay. I was holding the hyper 6 year old's hand with Louis who was as happy as him!

''Let's go this way,'' Victoria said and I followed her leaving Ty with the other eight boys. We saw some little girls playing with each other and giggling doing each others hair.

But one stuck out, Vicky tapped me and I looked to see a little girl with long dark brown hair, nice light hazel eyes and she was Vicky's complexion. She looked about.. three turning four?

We walked over to her and she was painting in a coloring book alone.

''Hey sweetie,'' I lowered down and she smiled up at me.

''I'm Zayn, and this is my friend Vicky,'' I smiled as Vicky sat next to me on the little chair.

''I'm Katherine, I'm three,'' she smiled moving a strand of hair out of her face and I smiled, she told us about how she loved coloring.. she talked about her favorite shows and how good this place treated her. She also talked about her dreams and what she wants to be when she grows up.

''I wanna see her file,'' Vicky said as we reached the front desk.

''Why?'' I asked confused, she looked back at the little girl who smiled and waved at us. We smiled and waved back laughing.

''She seems interesting.. like I have a connection with her.. ya know?'' She looked up at me and I nodded understanding.

''We can only show you her name and birth parents names,'' the lady smiled politely, Vicky nodded while I responded to Perrie's text until she gave me a light tap. I looked at her and she pushed the file to me.

I looked.

Name; Katherine Jones

Parent's Name; Jared Jones & Lorena Jones

    My jaw literally dropped, ''you don't think..''

''I think, she's my little sister, I don't remember much but I remember how my mom stopped drinking wine, started eating more certain things and she started getting thicker!'' She said wide eyed and my expression matched hers.

''Oh my god, how could I not realize it! I'm so stupid,'' she mumbled covering her face.

''Hey, hey, your not. You've had tons of stress over the years, what can we do if she is Vicky?'' I sighed as she ran her hand through her hair nervously.

She bit her bottom lip anxiously before looking up at me.

''Adopt her,''

**Victoria's P.O.V**

     I carried Katherine into the tour bus and she gasped at the sight, her eyes held excitement, adventure.. She looked just like my mom.. Ty happily carried her bag with coloring books inside with Niall who looked more excited then him..

''So we're going to be here for awhile.. then we're going to travel.. go to hotels,'' Ty told her as I put her down, she looked really excited to have Ty as a brother.. only. They didn't know.

''We can help buy her new clothes, we'll help with the food,'' Louis started and I stopped him.

''I got it, I have enough money, but I need to call back to LA,'' I rushed,

''But the time difference!'' I heard Liam call but I sat down in the lounge and called the first one on Skype. But I didn't expect Chase to answer and he surely expect me to be the one calling him. We starred at each other for a moment until he spoke up.
