I sit at the window, staring at my feet.
I take my charm out my pocket and admire its beauty.
We have another event. I know what they are now. Adults come and choose whether they want to adopt you. Ina and Luna think it's just a fun day where you play games. Once , at lunch me, Ina , Luna , Ashley and Elizabeth day on a table with two boys and they told us 'You'll never get adopted. No one wants to adopt a ginger or a blonde.' They then laughed at our sad faces and walked off. Some girls came to sit with us and said 'Don't worry about them. They are the most unhonest pair on planet earth.' I tried to force out a smile but accidentally let go of a tear. The girls must have noticed because another one of them said 'Oh My you are all so pretty your hair colour is so beautiful.' I managed a smile. 'Wanna sit next to us tomorrow?' Another one of the 3 girls asked. I nodded my head and asked they're names. 'Oh. I'm Carly and these twos big sister.' The first girl who spoke said.
'We're twins.' They both said in unison. A shy seeming one whispered 'My name is Gestle.' And a louder more confident one shouted 'My name is Laura!'
'So Carly, Laura and Gestle?' Ashley asked.
'No.' Carly says laughing 'She's Grettle. I don't blame you for mishearing her! Don't worry she'll be less shy when you get to know her.' She said pointing to who I thought was Gestle but is Grettle. And Grettle did get less shy and we all became great friends and always sat together at meal times but one day , a few days after an event , they didn't come to our table. We never saw them again after that. I think they must have been adopted. We just carried on with our lives and accepted that Carly, Laura and Grettle we're gone forever.
