______________________________________________________________________________

The orphanage was not really big, it was only a two story house. The ground floor was really spacious so that the kids can play without bumping into each other. Mark and I went up to the second floor to get the kids, we were assigned to five kids ages five to eight years old. Me and Mark were only new to this so we were only given five children while our friends received about ten kids. When we reached the second floor, the kids were already fixing their beds and changing their bed sheets since it's a Monday.

When the kids saw us they were all staring, and I heard one saying,"Are they here to adopt us?"

I waved and smiled, "Hello guys! Didn't Mrs.Berkely tell you? We are here to make your summer fun and we are going to have a lot of fun things to do. Do you guys like that?"

I saw their eyes shimmer with excitement and anticipation. Good thing we were assigned to kids since they were kind of easy to please. Jenna,Matt,Natalie and Kevin were assigned to the older ones.

"Oh, where are my manners! I forgot to introduce myself and my partner. My name is Stacy but you can call me Stace. This dude is Mark." Nudging Mark in the ribs.

Mark chuckled,"Hey kids! So, um, before we start in the day's activities we were told by Mrs.Berkely that you guys need to freshen up first. So hurry up so that we'll still have a lot of time to play!"

The kids began running back to their rooms and getting their clothes. It was nice to see them all excited and hyper.

I turned to Mark, "So...do you like kids?"

"Yeah, I really really do."

I saw a hint of sadness in his eyes but then he looked away.

I cleared my throat, "So,since we're going to be partners for the whole two months. I better introduce myself. Hi, my name is Stacy Alexander seventeen years old , average teenager with high hopes of becoming the class valedictorian. I would love it if I would pass Yale and become an engineer." I held out my hand and he shook it.

He grinned, "Hi Stace, my name is Mark Hughes, also a seventeen year old. I'm also am average teenager with high hopes of becoming rich and I would love to become a business man."

We both laughed and continued talking to each other while waiting for the kids to finish. We had common interests but he is quite different from me in many ways, so I was more interested in finding out more about him. He was just easy to talk to and quite open about his life but sometimes I feel like he was holding something back. I couldn't blame him since we just met today.

Our conversation ended when the children were all crowded around  us waiting for us to give them further instructions on what they were going to do.

"Wow guys, you all smell wonderful." I smiled, "Now, I would like to know more about all of you. Okay so here's how it goes, one by one tell me your names and give us some interesting information about yourself. Okay, first let's go to the living room."
