Chapter 8

We get into the car and Evan drives off with Johns hand in his. We take about an hour drive to the closest orphanage and are 30 mins away. I fall asleep.
*dream*
I look down and see Craig asleep on my lap. The kid next to us on the chair has the same stuffed animal as from the dream I had before.
Craig stirs awake and sits up. He looks at me with serious eyes.
"Tyler. I love you. But our time is short. I know you will never forget me and will love me forever. But there will be someone new in your like that you will love. And when that happens. Well you will see" he smiles and kisses me and I kiss him back. And the room we are in fades away.
*end dream*.
"Tyler. We are here!" John says unbuckling his seat belt.
I look out the window. There are tons of children running around playing. I get out of the car and follow the boys in.
A lot of the kids look at us as we walk in. A lady walks up to the boys and greats them with a warm smile. 
"Hello there! You must be Evan and Johnathan!" She says.
"That's right. Nice to finally meet you in person Ms.Lucy! This is Tyler he's here for moral support." Evan says and I reach out my hand.
"Hello!" I say and repeats it.
"Well why don't we get started? What age were you looking for?" She says.
"Around maybe 2-4?" John says looking around.
She shows us to a room with kids in that age range and one comes up to Evan and John.
"Hai! I'm Jasper! It's nice to meet you!" He says smiling.
"Hello!" The boys say at the same time.
"This is of course Jasper. He's been here for a year now. We found him on the street. He is 3 years old." She says and pats the young boys head.
Then out of nowhere they yell out
"Him. We want him!" They blush and look at her.
"Are you sure? There are still many to look at. Not that he's a bad option." She says with a surprise face.
"Yes. We have chosen him. I have a feeling in my gut. He's the one we need" John says picking up the child.
"YAY!" Jasper says hugging Johns neck.
"Alright. Let's go do the boring stuff now I guess. Jasper pack up." She says and takes the boys.
Evan looks at me "hey why don't you look around this will take forever and it's boring to sit down for too long." 
"Ok I guess" I say with a shrug.
I start to walk around the home. There are toys everywhere. There are kids coloring, painting,playing and running.
I walk around and see a small kid peak around a corner like he is watching me. I glance at him and he runs off. I dismiss it as kids will be kids.
I walk some more and see that same kid sitting alone with a stuffed animal in his arms.
I walk up to him and he has a shy face. Brown curly hair and brown eyes. Heh reminds me of someone.
"Hi little boy. Are you ok?" I bend down to his level.
"Y-yes. I just...I get curious and follow some times." He says stuttering.
"I get that...how long have you been here?"
"My whole life"
"Oh my. How old are you then?"
"I'm 4"
"Wow. Why are you here?"
"My family died." He says and some tears weld in his big beautiful eyes. I wrap my arms around him.
He's just like Craig in a way. He looks just like him.
"Are you gonna be my new daddy?" He asks tilting his head.
I open my mouth to say no but the words don't come out. I feel something. And see sitting next to the boy and I. Craig. He whispers to me. "Take him. Love him like you would me. He is the one for you."
"Are you okay sir?" The boy asks as Craig disappears.
"Y-yes I'm okay. And for your other question. Yes. I will be your new daddy" I finish and he hugs me so tightly.
"THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!" He yells with joy.
"I guess we will take you to the lady bud." I pick him up and put him on my back. As I walk to the door I see Craig again. Smiling at me.
He says to me "I love you Tyler. So much. But now. It's my time to go for good. I will always be in your heart and watching you and the boy. I've stayed here cause my time was not finished. But now with the kid you are taking. My goal in life is complete. I will miss you so much my love." He hugs me and kisses me and I feel it as if it was real. "Take care of him. I love you. And thank you. Goodbye." He says as he walks off and disappears. A tear falls down my face. "No..." I whisper.
The lady comes out and is surprised with my presence.
"I decided I want to adopt this one here" I say.
She smiles.
We finish the long hour of paper work. We are walking out the door.
"Ma'am!  I forgot to ask. What is his name?"
She turns around with a smile.

"Craig"
