Family Depravity

1. I got adopted.

Today was a special occassion where chosen orphans can be adopted to a family.
And today, it seems that the person who visited is a powerful entity as the dean was very respectful towards the man.

Thinking of losing a big donation, the dean became desperate.

W-wait, Sir!

T-There's a child who isn't fully Asian here! He has a special feature that is western.
Henry
Henry
*slightly interested* Where?
Orphanage

*Happy* There!
The Dean pointed to a frail child standing in the middle of healthy looking children.
Henry
Henry
*angry laugh* Do you think this is a joke?

N-No, it's true!

*bothered*
The man stared at the small child who was barely up to his chest in scrutiny.
Henry

Western? Nonsense.

Orphanage's Dean
No, his face has it! His face!
Henry
Henry
*loses interest*
Orphanage

*notice* You! Show your face.

*shake his head*
Orphanage

*impatient*
The dean gripped the child's chin and swept away his bangs.

Henry
Henry
Are you bullying a child now? *scoff*
Orphanage
Orphanage's Dean
*nervous* No, listen-
Henry

The child is indeed beautiful but not special.
Casey
Casey
*flinch*
The child was shocked by the man's words.
He wasn't hurt by hearing that he was not special, as he had heard it many times while growing up.
Rather, he was in disbelief after hearing the man say he was beautiful.
All his fellow orphans and even the dean had told him that he was ugly, especially his eyes, which looked foreign and different.
Out of curiosity, the child finally opened his eyes to see the man who had spoken such a lie.

Secretary James
Secretary James
Understood. Have a safe trip. *bow*
Henry and Casey, the newly established father and son, shared a quiet moment before stepping out of the orphanage, their lives forever changed in that single, fleeting encounter.
