Chapter 4
When Wish fell Layne thought he will surely fall on the floor, and he closed his eyes waiting for the impact
Layne (New born)
*peeks open his eyes*
Layne (New born)
*Looks at Wish*
Layne (New born)
*inside mind* Why did she do that ?
Wish (14 years old)
*gets up and bows once more* I promise madam you won't even know he is here I will take care of him…
Beth (orphanage owner)
*scoffs* Huh ! Why should I agree now ?...
Wish (14 years old)
*on her knees* Please madam I will work harder than before and pay twice the money.... I am begging you No one came for him, I can't leave him out...
Beth (orphanage owner)
*icy cold* You better keep your word girl...
Beth (orphanage owner)
*smirks* Also pay me twice the money and I am not increasing the amount of food you get....
Wish works at people's house cleaning them to earn money in the evenings she goes to school in the morning for about 5 hours and works in the evenings
Wish (14 years old)
*bows* Thank you madam... Thank you so much...
Beth glares at Wish and takes one last look at Layne before turning and walking away
Now Wish just hugs Layne tighter, as if reaffirming that her decision was right
Wish (14 years old)
*whispers to Layne* That's just how the world is baby.... If we want to survive...we just have to go along with it...
Layne (New born)
*inside mind* Already tried that, didn't work out well....
Layne (New born)
*inside mind* It's better to have the world fear you than let everyone in the world walk over you...
Layne (New born)
*inside mind* The world may have changed, but humans, huh…! Are still the same...
While Layne was deep in his thoughts Wish was already walking to the dorm where they were going to sleep
Wish (14 years old)
Here we are our room...
Now Layne who broke out of his thoughts was flabbergasted on what he was seeing
Wish (14 years old)
*looks at Layne* 20 of us sleep here well, if we count you now it's 21
All of a sudden a voice is heard from the back
May (12 years old)
*curious* Can he really understand you ....?
Wish (14 years old)
*smiles* Hi May...
Wish (14 years old)
*looks at Layne* Well to answer your question... He probably can't... But let's not ignore him shall we....
Now Layne's starts to find the answers for why she has been doing all of this...
Layne (New born)
*inside mind*Well it finally clicks now... She is one of those incessant do-gooders... who think a baby which can't understand anyone can be ignored...
May (12 years old)
*looks at Layne* is he our new brother? He is so cute...
Wish (14 years old)
Yes May, I'm 14 and a half now so in 3 and a half years I will adopt you both...
Wish (14 years old)
*smiles sadly* Until then... let's make the best out of things...
Then Layne looked at her and saw what kind of person was holding him
Layne (New born)
*inside mind* She is not a do-gooder.... She just wants to help and be helped...
Layne (New born)
*inside mind* Like everyone else in the world...
