It was finally summer and I was just graduated from school. I had always wanted to explore the world to get an answer for all my questions, but the walls of the orphanage had always withhold me. Tomorrow I would turn eighteen, that's the age when you can leave the orphanage. I can't wait anymore! I was so happy I could go my own way tomorrow so I hummed a little bit while I chose a book in the orphanage library. There were so many books here and I had probably read them all in my time here. I saw my favourite book and I grabbed it. I took it with me and while I was eating dinner with the other kids, I read it until someone interrupt me. It was my favourite teacher of the school, which was located next to our building "I wish you a happy birthday for tomorrow, Haneul!" He gave me a hand "Thank you so much, sir." I said as he smiled "Tomorrow I'm going on vacation, so I just wanted to congratulate already." I smiled back "I want to give you a little advice for if you leave here tomorrow," I waited for him to say something as he lied his hand on my shoulder "Always follow your heart, remember that." He almost whispered like it was a warning "Well," He looked happy again "best of luck to you!" "Thanks." I said as he walked away. I felt a few kids looking at me, so I looked their way as they immediately looked the other way. They had never really contact with me. Maybe because I was very quiet, or because I was different. I've always had blonde hair and blue eyes while I looked quite Korean. So many people had asked me if I dyed my hair or if I put in contacts, but that wasn't the matter. I had just been different on outside and inside. When I was little, for example, I heard voices talking to me while we were on a trip in the zoo. It were the animals. I talked back to them, but everyone thought I had gone crazy. I never returned to the zoo. Another example; when I was at the age of thirteen I could predict things. One time I had a vision of the school burning. I ran to the head of school and told him what would happen, but he just said I made it up. A few hours later everyone stood outside school because it was covered in fire. Last example; when I was sixteen I felt the wife of the head of orphanage was sick. I told him and he wouldn't listen, until she got diagnosed with something terrible. The head of orphanage had always thought I was in a weak state of mind, but after he had heard the news I had to be examined. After we went to a doctor I got pills. I still take them, because I'm afraid to get mad, like everyone says. I looked at the clock, it was already half past ten. How long had I been reading?! I quickly stood up and walked towards my room. I quickly put on my pyjama's and I couldn't wait for tomorrow!
