<< Virgil pov>>
These been three weeks. My room is nearly empty. I've finished packing my suitcase. Not much is to pack. Just my clothes, which is mainly the uniform and a few other things. There's my journal of poems and my book.
Nothing too heavy.
Pam knocks and walks I to my bedroom, smiling at me.
"God must've sent a blessing for you. Worth the wait. Are you happy?" She asks. I know she means well.
"Yeah.. a little nervous." I lied. I'm petrified. Yes, I've wanted to leave this place for forever now, but I'll leave Pam behind.
"I'll miss you." She answers while taking something from her pocket.
She hands it to me.
A small necklace with a cross on it. It's black. She must've painted it herself.
I hug her.
"You're always going to be my true mother." I say very quietly. I hope she hears my voice.
"You'll always be my son."

The drive was quiet. Ms. V was talking to the man about things they needed to buy at the store later.
I looked out the window to the Orphanage once more before looking around to the snow and forest. There's a lot of snow, blanketing the trees and street.
