I opened my eyes and I saw my self laying on a bed surrounded by other people. I tried to recall what happened and I remembered it but where was I and what was I doing here.
"Where am I?"i said as I stood up a bit. An old man came near me and answered: "This is the "Dragon Spirit" orphanage and I am Macro the orphanage's supervisor.
"We found out that youre orphanage was..." he looked down and then continued" and we foumd you. We took you and gave you medical treatment. And now youre part of us" he smiled. " so" he continued " Welcome to youre new home "Dragon Spirit" all the orpans said in sync. They were all smiling at me just like a big family that have big bonds with each other. I could see them and they all were happy with each other. Everyone was like a member of a big family. My eyes were open wide and shinning. You could tell that even that I wasn't smiling me eyes were. I felt like being home. I felt a very warm feeling just as long as they were around. "Thankyou..., everyone" i said as i smiled.We went at the orphanage. It was really big and amazing. We went in and I saw a big hall with tables and chairs filled with kids laughing and playing together. "What was with this place and these kids? Don't they ever feel afraid? Don't they every feel sadness? Do they always keep smiling together? It really didn't feel like an orphanage anymore." I accidentaly said that a bit out loud and a boy there heard me. He stared at me and then "Do you know why there are orphanages?" He said to me seriously. "To give a place to live little kids" i said with a low voice."A normal person isn't strong, expecially when he's alone. There are a lot of lonly people and that's why they build orphanages. So then people can't feel lonely anymore. So then we can laugh, cry , fight and then still live together. Its a place you can call home.
Of course we are afraid. We are afraid of losing a friend, but when we are together we have nothing to be afraid of, we will stand up and fight ....., because we are not alone. An orphanage is determined not by its visage but by harmony of people living there. Everyone is here because we help one another to survive. Everyone who lays a hand on our friends is our enemy, and we will fight for our friends even if we are afraid. Being afraid isn't evil. It tells us what our weaknes is, and once we know our weaknes we will become stronger and gentle. We are who we are. We will never give up for our friends and our home. That is what we fight for. Thats what an orphanage is. Thats the meaning of friends." He said to me with a gentle voice and then tapped my head and smiled at me. His hand felt so warm and familiar. And, and his words were coming so honest. They were stuck in my head but...., still I couldn't understand the true meaning of those words. The true meaning of being friends."So whats is youre name?"a girl there asked me.
"Nara" i told them. "Im 10" i said.
"I'm Mira" that girl said as she smiled at me. "Im 12" she said."And nice to meet you."And so I was introduced by a lot if people there as Lucy, Cana, Lisa, Jet, Drake and two twins Alex and Troy. These were the ones that we became so close and that actually made me laugh and feel like home.
Those were bonds that were created by each other and , they felt really great.
