Omniscient p.o.v

Tomas walks into his daughters room and finds her looking at her wall, again. He doesn't know why she gets lost staring at the wall; he's tried asking but she always replies with a shrug.

Ellie hasn't noticed her dad walk into the room yet. She keeps staring at the wall. Yes, staring but she only needs something to look at while she lets her mind wander. You could say she's daydreaming or even sleeping, because she's so still.

What goes on in her mind is difficult to explain. What she thinks, she feels. She can feel the walls, the air around her, and the earth beneath her feet. The earth, not the floor. She doesn't know why she feels this way, but continues to tell her self she's fine. That's why she always shrugs when her parents ask her what she thinks about. It's because she doesn't exactly know. So she just doesn't tell.

But her parents aren't telling something either.

"Why didn't you and momma know I was a girl?" The little girl asks, detecting her dad in the room "Peter told me that the doctors could always tell if it was a boy or girl" Peter is her best friend. Peter and Harry but mainly Peter. Harry and Peter are friends way more that Ellie and Harry. She's okay with that though.

"Well, sometimes they can't figure it out" he says, quietly. He's right, but he's lying.

He doesn't want to tell her the truth. That Tomas and Elena were supposed to have a boy. That they had a miscarriage 5 months into the pregnancy. That Ellie was adopted. They don't want to tell her this; they believe she's too young.

Little did they know that she needed to know.

It would've made it easier for her, in the long run.
