ADOPTED.

PROLOGUE- What to expect.

We were told not to leave the Orphanage today, it happens once in a while though perhaps the social workers are coming around again, they came around last week.

The authority is taking extra measures, new clothes were bought and given to us yesterday, our rooms were cleaned by some staffs and the surroundings is looking so different.

"I don't think it's the social workers coming, "Oceania said sounding confused while she walks around the room.

"I was about saying the same thing Nia, preparation is just so different, "Sky replies looking up from the book his face was buried in.

"Maybe it's an adoption," I voiced out joining the conversation while looking towards Nia, who suddenly puts a stop to her walk.

"If it's an adoption, then why to ask us to stay also, I mean who wants to adopt a 16year old," Sky asked me with a strange look on his face.

"Who knows, maybe they just want us to stay and pretend to be happy, you know the drill, "Oceania answered on my behalf.

"Have you losers heard, "May beamed walking into our room with a huge grin on her face.

"Have you heard of knocking," Sky replies her while he sits upon his bed?

May is our next room neighbor but she behaves like a spoilt child, we all grew up here and no one has the time to spoil anybody, she's the perfect bimbo and has always been our tormentor growing up to date.

"So, the mouse wanna bite", She said to him while she checks her nails with a smirk on her face.

"Please May, we don't want any trouble," Oceania pleaded with her not wanting any further a***e taking place.

"Well, the authorities are expecting some couples and I think they are three couples," She started looking confused, she plays with the tip of her fake blonde hair for some minutes, she forgets things easily."Now I remember, the authorities are expecting four couples, and do you know the most intriguing part of it," She said eagerly, clapping her hands with a huge smile on her face.

I looked at Nai and Sky if by chance any of them knows the answer to her question, but the both of them were looking at May waiting for her to continue talking, "We don't May," I answered her question timidly and I see the others nodding their heads in agreement to my answer, with the fear of being insulted or beaten by her.

"Of course you know nothing nerds, why do I keep disturbing my brain talking to you?. Well, you won't spoil my fun I will just tell you, they want to adopt 4 sixteen years olds", She screams hopping on a spot with her hair bouncing on her shoulder.

"So, I came here to officially tell you goodbye, you won't be seeing me again after today I will be busy getting ready to leave this place in two weeks and getting to know my new family", She continues in a calm voice but a smirk is present on her face. "Don't miss me too much and I will always hate you guys, I will be gone with a rich family and I might take pity on you and beg my parents to employ you as my maids", She looks at us with a wicked smile on her face, "I have to get ready so I can attract the best family, Goodbye", She waves at us and walked out of the room.

We all released a big sigh in relief and happiness, "I was starting to think she was never going to leave us without a dent on our body or emotions," Sky said getting up from his bed only to make himself comfortable on ours.

"That's the longest she ever stayed in our room even when she decided to vent her anger towards us," I added moving my books to make space for Nia who is standing at the edge of the bed in deep thought.

"If what she just said is true, I can only pray they adopt her minions along with her for us to have peace for once," Oceania adds sitting on the cleared space.

"They will be separated the horror," Sky screamed placing his palm on his forehead dramatically.

"At least, we will have our freedom in the house," I said to him pulling his palm from his forehead with hope in my voice.

"And if by chance any of us gets adopted we have to leave together because I can't survive the world out there nor in here without any of you cuties," Oceania said looking at the both of us with a sad smile.

"Same here," I and Sky said together, pulling ourselves into a tight group hug.

Although somewhere within us, we know we can never be adopted, who will adopt a broken child with lots of insecurities we only hope for the best and a name to call ours aside from the Orphanage name which we have as our last name. But, I know I can't live without any of my friends if any of us gets adopted.
