Chapter 3 - The change

It was a bright and beautiful saturday morning,The birds were chirping,And the atmosphere was quite pleasing...

Yvette took her favorite spot underneth the tree on the bench watching the other kids play around...Trying to hide her pain and anguish inside.Mother Ellen who has been looking all over for her gives a sigh of relief as she sights her and takes a stroll towards her and seats beside her..

"Hey...I've been looking all over for you,Please my child try to fake a welcoming gesture atleast..Before someone suspects anything....

"..l just found out the truth about myself how do you want me to feel,I can't even cry anymore because I did that all night...My heart is torn apart inside Mother Ellen".

"...Take it my dear child,Your pretty eyes are all turned red,I'm starting to regret everything telling you anything.....".Mother Ellen said looking so gloomy.

"No no no...I'm actually very grateful to you for everything...But my heart has grown so much hatred for my family..".

"Don't say that dear...."

"I can't help it...ls it my fault I was born through that terrible means..You know what I don't even want to talk about it...I've cried enough over them..it's time I move forward and forget my past..".Yvette smiles at her taking her by the hands."Mother Ellen...I think-I think I'm ready to get adopted now.

"Oh my child....Thank you,you really deserve something better".Ellen gives out a smile of contentment and gives her a heart- filled hug."Have you had breakfast child?".

"No..Not yet".

"C'mon let's go do that right away,Shall we?".

Later that day...

Yvette was up In the girl's room..Sitted on her bed as she sketched down drawings in the company of two other girls who she didn't quite feel comfortable with because of the way they kept glaring and giggling at her..Nancy and Veronica were there names.Yvette was never on good terms with them..So,She tries as much as possible to avoid them.

" Hey Yvette,What makes you so special?".Nancy asked with the aim of making fun of her.

"Well,if you most know bitch...Being myself is what makes me special and not a 'CHEAP GOSSIP' like you".

"What did you just call me?".Nancy stands up to her as does and comes towards her directionwords pierces deep into her heart

"Oooooh....".Veronica utters following Nancy from behind.

"You don't scare me one bit Nancy...".Yvette says boldly.

Nancy swiftly anchors for her head and tries hitting on the wardrobe but before she could Yvette makes a quick hit for her tummy with her elbow which weakens Nancy to let go of her.Yvette without hesitation tramples on her punching her with her fist as hard as she can carrying out all her anger and pain on her forgetting about Veronica who uses a pillow and tries to suffocate her.

"DIE!!!".

"What is going on here?!!".Mother Sade barges in with three others on the sound they generate.Veronica swiftly takes off the pillow from Yvette's face.

"Errr...".Veronica utters

"Have you suddenly gone numb girl?".

"Yvette and Nancy got into a fight I tried to separate them both...".Veronica lied.

"Lies!...They both attacked me first and SHE tried to kill me by suffocating me to death".

"Is this true Veronica?"Mother Sade asks.

Veronica keeps silent not saying anything.

"I am so disappointed in you...All of you,Now listen to me let this be the last time I with ness such I'm I clear?!!".

"Mother Sade?...You have a guest".Victoria the orphanage maid informs her.

"Alright,I'm on my way".She takes her leave.

"You girls better behave now".One of the women that came in Earlier with mother Sade warns and leaves too.

"You better watch your back from now on hussy,you don't know what you just got yourself into".Nancy threatens and heads out of the room angrily.
