(Y/n)'s Pov

"So Evan is going to stay with my dad and we'll take (Y/n) with us." I overheard my mum talking with my dad. "(Y/n) come here, honey. We need to talk." my dad called to me. I walked to the living room to see my parents. "Sweetheart, me and mummy are going on a business trip to the Caribbean and we're taking you with us." dad told me "Is Evan coming?" I asked with a bit of a lisp "No, he can't. He's going to stay home with grandpa because he's ill." mum said. I remember this whole thing happening last time. I guess I have no other choice "Okay."

We packed up some of our things and the next week we were off. It was fun to see them again and at that point I knew I mustn't disappoint them. The first week went by quickly and the dreaded day had to arrive sooner or later. I could hear screams outside, the waves were crashing down many buildings "(Y/n), come let's get to safety." my father said while my mum was trying not to show her panicked self "Okay."

We ran on top of rooftops just to get to safety. There was a huge wave coming our way. My father lifted me up on a high enough rooftop but soon the wave crashed and brought my parents down with it. I knew that this would be just like last time, they were gone forever. I might be only a four year old, but I did live before so I know what will happen and how the world actually works.

In a few hours it ended, the streets were flooded and there were a lot of people crying over their lost families and friends. In a few days the streets weren't as engulfed in water as before. So I came down from the roof. I was an orphan, I was young, scrappy and hungry. I didn't have any id with me cause it was with my dad. "Excuse me, miss. Could you please help me. My parents died and I'm not from here." I asked a lady, I knew that she's an owner of an orphanage and she'll help me get back. "Of course. What's your name sweetie?" "(Y/n)." I said "Well it's nice to meet you. I can try and help you get back home. Are you by any chance from Britain?" she said in a sweet voice. Can't you hear my accent, I mean I'm clearly British "Yes, I am."

In the next few months the two of us worked hard to earn money for a ticket to Cokeworth where I would live in an orphanage. We only saved up enough for my ticket to London, so I went alone. I was greeted at the London harbor by Elizabeth but I pretented that I didn't know her "You must be miss Elizabeth." I said to her "Yes I am, and let me guess - (Y/n)?" she said more of a joke "Why yes." I said in a more proper way. We got into her car and went to the orphanage in Cokeworth.

I had my own room in the back, it was small, but I didn't mind. I decided to go outside after I got settled. I sat down on the swings and swung a bit, just thinking my plan over. "Hi you're new, right? I'm Amelia Baker, I came here last week." huh that's weird she wasn't here last time. Maybe I can use her as my tragic demise, yeah sounds good. "Oh, hi. Yeah I'm new I just got here. I'm (Y/n) nice to meet you." I said reaching my hand out for a shake. Instead she huged me, God does this girl not know anything about personal space. But of course I huged back after a moment and faked a smile. "Do you want to sit together at dinner?" I asked politely "Yes."

A few years passed, me and ugh... Amelia became 'friends'. I was seven years old now and I knew that soon I would be back at Issacs home. It was the start of summer and I stayed in my room reading "(Y/n), there's a person that would like to see you." the sweet voice of Elizabeth reached my ears. Dear Merlin not this again. I followed her to her office where I saw him "(Y/n) this is Issac, he's here to adopt you." she said and I nodded in understanding.

He filled out the paperwork and I packed my things. Amelia saw me waiting near the door and came up "Hi, I heard you're being adopted. Congrats, I guess." she said with a small smile "I bet you that I'll be back. Remember last year? I don't know how long I'll be gone, but I do have a felling that I'll return. Remember I always come back." I said and we shared a laugh together. Soon Issac came and we left.

When the car stopped he turned around and said" Take your things, you'll sleep in the basement. You get up at 05:00 A.M. make me breakfast and clean the kitchen. While I'm eating you'll pack my things for work. After that I'll leave and you'll clean the house, prepare dinner. I'll be back at 05:00 P.M. After I eat you'll clean up the kitchen, then you go to bed. You don't want to know what will happen if you don't reach my expectations." he said sternly "Do you understand?" he asked "Yes sir. But I have a question." I said "Well what is it?! I don't have all day!" he responded angrily "When would I get the chance to eat?" I asked "You'll get to eat when I say it's okay and you'll eat what I tell you to." he said exiting the car. Great here we go again.

So I hope you liked it and hope it wasn't too cringy. Same excuse like the last chapter, also I'm writing as many chapters as I can because I got so many ideas. Anyway hope you're not disappointed. Love y'all.
