I remember my aunt coming over one day after my parents had left to get groceries. I thought that they just got stuck in traffic or something bad had happend to them but from what I over heard from my aunt they had abandoned me. What ever that meant. I remember her taking me over to her house and told me to go to the guest bedroom. It was hard getting on the bed because of my same size but I managed. A few minutes later I heard yelling coming from the kitchen. I peeked out there to see her husband grabbing her hand then smacked her. I cried to myself hating that I had to see my aunt hurt by him so later that night I sneaked out of their house and walked to the only place that made me happy when I was sad or some where I would always go when im lost.

I laid down on the playground bench and shivered when the cold wind hit me from the side. I cuddled up my toy monkey as I slowly fell asleep. I woke up to louder talking and soft shaking. I woke up think it was momma or my aunt but it with realization when I saw a strangers face. "Are you alright. Wheres your mother or father?" The man asked I didn't what to speak because I knew better but I think I had to. "I don't know." I replyed and looked at my stuffed animal. "Do you have anyone to stay with or to take care of you?" I shook my head no sadly and the man took a moment to think then looked back at me with concerned eyes. "I can take you to a place where people will love and take care of you untill someone can take you home. Who dose that sound?" He told me and feeling like I could trust him I shook my head yes.

He smiled at me and took me to his car. We drove for a couple minutes untill the man stopped at a church like place. I cuddled up to my stuffed monkey so he can make me feel safe. He took me out of the car and walked me inside. Inside there was a big desk that I couldn't see over so I could see if anyone was there but I heard a woman speak when we walked up to it. I could see and hear alot of other kids which made me scared abit so I hide behind the strange man. The man and woman both talked quietly to each other as I looked around. My wondering eyes stopped when I saw a tall kid sitting by himself as others talked loudly around him. He then looked up at me with a plain face. I quickly looked away already feeling shy enough.

Out of no where a ladie in a long black dress came around the desk and bent down next to me. "Can you tell me your name?" She asked in a soft tone. "L-lui." I said and I felt the mans leg move out of my hold and walk away. On the verge of crying I held onto my monkey for dear life. "Alright. Do you know how old you are?" "six." She then started to ask more and more questions before telling me to stay in the "play area." She guided me to the place I saw that one kid hang out. She then left and everybodys eyes were fixed one me. Eveything went quiet as two taller and older kids walked up to me. Arms cross. The first thing went into mind was that these guys were bully's. I had those at school and I immediately panicked. "Looky here Jack we have a new comer~" The taller kid said while the shorter one snickered. "Oh what a surprise. What should we do to him Max?" "I think we should teach him who's boss around here." and with that they pushed me and one locked arms with me while the other started to punch me. My cries were muffled because of the hand covering my mouth. "Wouldn't want Mrs. Bakers yelling at yo-" All of the sudden the arms trapping me were pulled off. I could see the kid from earlier punching him.

The other kid ran off and the other was laying on the ground with a blooding nose. The kid then walked up to me and stared down at me. He was so much taller than me it was really intimating. He then walked away and everyone started talking again. I was left standing there not knowing what to do.

...

The next day I had a person called a nun guided me around and told me how everything works and what I would have to do. Basically everything is like a school and home mixed into one is what they told me. It was now play time and I went back to the play area.  Walked in I saw the kid that helped with the bullys from yesterday and luckly I didn't see the bullys.

I looked back to the kid to see him with him sitting criss-cross by himself. I decided I should thank him for helping me. "U-um hi."  I said sitting down next to him. He looked at me confused then his expression relaxed when he saw it was me. "Hey." He said then looked back down at his hands. "I just wanted to tell you thank you for yesterday." "No problem. I hate those guys. You alright anyway?" he asked turning to look at me.

I saw concern in his eyes and I felt relaxed and calmed down my his green eyes. "Yeah. The nurse here patched me up!" I said lifting my shirt so he can see the bands-aids that coverd my bruises. He laughed. "You think thats bad? Look at me hands." He said and showed me his knuckles. They were all bruised and had tiny cuts on them. "Woah. That guy must have a hard nose if he did that to yoy hands." I said and we both laughed. "My names David." He said. "Lui!" We continued to talk untill it was now time to go to sleep.

I separated so we can get ready to bed. I walked into the bathroom and I heard the door close then open and closed. I was about to go when I was pushed into the corner of the bathroom. I looked up to see the kid from yesterday. The one who was punching me. "You really think your boyfriends always going to save up. Well welcome to my world." He said and punched me in the face. I cried out as he kept punching me over and over.

He stopped when he heard someone knock on the door. "Eveyone to their bunks now." They ssid and he turned to me. "Tell on me and expect the worse." he said then walked away. I sniffed before walking out so I wouldn't get in trouble. I walked to my bunk and coverd my heard with the cover and my pillow. I cried into it as I wished that my parents would come find me and take me away from this place and we would be all a happy family. I jumped when I felt someone tap my shoulder. I rubbed my noise and squinted in the dark trying to see. "Are you alright?" I heard David whisper and I sniffed. "I-im f-fine." I said obviously not convincing him. He sighed then sat down next to me. I sat up so I can sit next to him.

"Whats wrong?" He asked and I told him how Max had beaten me up again and how I missed my parents. "Ill have to teach him a lesson. Im sorry he said and hugged me. I hugged him back and cried into his shoulder. "Try to go to sleep Ill stay here to help you if thats ok." "C-can you sing me a lullaby. Thats the only way I could sleep when Im upset." I said feeling alittle embarrassed asking this. He was a little taken back from the question because his old parents use to tell him that he was bad at singing but once he saw how much it meant to the smaller he took a breath and quietly started to sing.

Lui was amazed at how well the boy sung and he was only a year older then him. He wanted to stay awake so he can listen to the other but he felt his eye lids getting heavy. He soon layed down and snuggled up to his plush listening to the other sing then soon falling asleep. David smiled when he saw the other fall asleep next to him then he layed down next to him till he was also now asleep. The two where happy now that they had finally made a friend in his crappy place.
