My savior

Chapter 17

Eva's pov:

It's been 3 weeks since I last saw Brian and Jane. Everything was going well. My bruises healed perfectly, and I got used to the crutches. My ribs got better. As for Ms Dursilla, she was kind to me. She didn't let me do a lot of work, sometimes she even shout at me so I don't work because of my leg.

The kids at the house weren't nice to me. Only 3 were nice and kind to me:

Liam, Emily, and Anna. Liam was the one who helped me to get down the stairs last time I went to the hospital. They introduced themselves to me when I came back from the hospital. They helped me in a lot of things around the house.

Anna is 12 years old, the youngest between all of us. She came to the orphanage 3 years ago when her parents died. I felt sorry for her, but she said that she didn't care because they weren't nice to her; which made me feel bad for her because she doesn't deserve this. She is a very optimistic and cheerful person who lights up the room with her laugh.

Emily is 14 years old and came when she was 11 because her father died abd her mother didn't want anything to do with her. It brakes me down that a mother doesn't want her kid. She has a younger brother who still lives with his mother. She said that her mother wanted a boy not a girl. Emily is a very good person, but if you every make her mad, you'll have to survive her wrath.

Liam is 15 years old. He's miss Dursilla's son. He told me that he never saw his father and never knew who he was. Miss Dursilla never showed him his face. He helped me in a lot of things like climbing the stairs, doing my chorus, and things like that. He is so kind and lovely, and he's not mean like his mother or any of the other kids.

Yesterday, while we were eating our dinner, miss Dursilla told me that Brian was coming today to pick me up to go get my cast off. Liam wanted to come with me but miss Dursilla said no. He was sad that he won't go with me. I told him to listen to his mother and do his chorus while I was at the hospital. When I come back, I'll help him.

So now, I'm waiting for Brian to come get me to get this cast off. Speaking of the devil, he rang thr bell and Liam opened. One thing I learned that only Liam and miss Dursilla open the door to strangers. He let Brian in and came to me.

"Don't forget that you'll help me today when you come back ok. You promised."

"I remember Liam. Don't worry I didn't forget"

We hugged and Brian came to us.

"Hey Eva. Long time no see. Ready to go?"

"Yes"

I got my crutches and we went to the car, of course after I said bye to my friends. We both got inside and he drove us to the hospital. When we arrived, we got out and went to his office. He opened the door and I felt there was something different in the room. I took a look around the room and realized that he has a chair.

"You got a chair!"

He looked at me and then the chair and smiled.

"Ya, the couch isn't comfy for me anymore."

"Congratulations"

"Thank you Eva. Now why don't you sit on the couch and wait for Jane to come?"

"Ya sure"

Brian's pov:

I texted my sister to come to the hospital, since Eva is used to her being with us. The main reason I wanted her to come was that I needed someone with me when I tell Eva the news. I am scared to do it alone.

After a while, Jane came and hugged Eva.

"Hey Eva, how are you?"

"I'm good"

"Well, let's go. Don't you want to get rid of that cast?"

"Yes very much"

We all got out of the office and went to the ortho side of the hospital. I texted Emily earlier and told her that we are coming today. So now she's waiting for us at the door.

"Hello Eva. How are you?"

"I'm good"

"Well let's get this over with shall we?"

They all went inside the room and I stayed outside to give them thier privacy.

Eva's pov:

" Please, take off your pants and sit on that bed."

The doctor said. I'm honestly happy that it's the same doctor as the one who put the cast on my leg because I don't like to show myself to strangers. I took off my pants and she removed the cast. When I started to move it a bit, it hurt like b***h. I hissed and winced.

"It'll hurt for a little bit but then you'll be fine. It happens all the time. Give it some time and rest and soon you'll be able to walk again. Don't move it a lot, take a few steps everyday, and it will heal perfectly."

I listened to the doctor's instructions and put my pants on again. I stood up from the bed and tried to move but fell on the ground. Jane and the doctor helped me stand up again and the doctor gave me crutches to walk around with till my leg heals.

Jane and I left the room and met with Brian. There was something off with him. I have no idea what it is, but there is something wrong with him.

"Let's go to the office. I need to talk to you Eva"

He said. I got confused on why he wanted to talk to me, but whatever it was, it sounded important. We all went to the office and I sat down on the couch after walking for a long time.

"Brian do you need me to stay?"

I looked to her confused. Why would she ask him that?

"Yes, please, Jane"

"Is there something wrong?"

"Not at all Eva. There is something I want to talk to you about."

"What is it?"

"Have you ever thought about being adopted?"
