10 Count Down
Soon after the same man once again came into the room with a stack of papers in his hands.
"Ahem, I believe that these are the papers that you wanted Miss Elaine."
"Yes, thank you for your help once again Mr Danis."
"Just remember not to tell anyone about this because it is kind of technically illegal for me to do this with my official position."
"It's fine, neither I or Neil will ever tell anyone else about this, right Neil?"
"Yup!"
The man suddenly came up and began rubbing my head.
"Good boy, just remember that this is your mummy from now on ok?"
"Ok!"
"I believe we should get going now Mr Danis, we do have a lot of things to do now after all."
"Of course, it's been a pleasure working with you again."

Soon after this, Miss Elaine took me out of the suspicious office and to the main lobby once again. Now that we are done with this quick adoption what comes next I wonder, just what is she planning for me now?
She suddenly bent down to my level and put on a serious face,
"Neil."
"???"
"Do you want to go to school or not?"
Huh? Do I even have a choice when it comes to this? School is compulsory, I shouldn't even have a choice when it comes to whether I want to go or not so why is she even asking me this? Well if she gives me a choice then I should think this through for a second. First of all if I go I'd get to just blend in with society and build myself an identity, also it would make me less suspicious. But if I don't go I'd be able to do whatever I want and leave whenever Miss Elaine is at work, this means I can literally do whatever the hell I want while still looking like a kid.
No matter how I think about it having my own freedom, even if I'm looking like a little kid, is much better.
"No I don't want to big sister."
"Why?"
"It won't be fun"
"Hahaha... I guess that's good enough of a reason for you not to go."
"But don't I have to go?"
"It's fine I'll deal with all of that stuff for you, just know that from now on if you want to go out while I'm not home you can. Also you can go out at night as well."
"..."
#!$£*&%
What's wrong with this woman? Did she seriously just let a little child do whatever he wants? Does she have mental issues something? Considering the way she is I'm not surprised that she lost her previous child...
"Let's go inside for now and set up your room for you."
"Ok."
And so we went into the elevator and she took us to the 23rd floor, once the elevator door opened we turned left and continued on to the very end of the corridor to the very last apartment on the floor.
"This will be your home from now on."
She slowly creaked the door handle open up to my new home.
Beautiful.
It was absolutely beautiful.
The way she had done her living room was simply impeccable, it was absolutely gorgeous.
The aqua decorations formed a sea type atmosphere making the whole flat seem like an aquarium, yet it was just a normal flat.
She is able to create an amazing home for herself yet she has no common sense when it comes to children, no matter how many I've said it I simply have to say it again. She's just weird.
"This place has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a living room, a laundry room and a kitchen. It has everything you would need in a home. The bedroom you will be taking is the one to the right of the kitchen, and the kitchen is directly connect to this living room so it will be very easy to find. My room is the one close to yours so don't come in without knocking. As for the last room it's a guest room."
"You can look around if you want."
And so look around I did. The kitchen had all the things you would need in it, the two bathrooms both had showers and baths in them with them both being very spacious. As for my room it was big enough for even the me from before to consider big, it was way more than I actually needed but I wouldn't say no for such a big room.
"Big si-"
"I'm not your sister anymore Neil, remember I'm your mum from now on ok?"
She put on a warm smile as she lightly embraced me as if confirming our new relationship.
Sigh...
"Mmm, your my mum from now on!"
Of course I also had to play along, I wouldn't mistreat the person who's allowing me to live life however I want with no consequences after all.
"Mum will be going to sleep now to get ready for my work tomorrow so if your hungry you can eat anything from the fridge, there will always be food in there prepared so if your ever hungry and I'm not here just take whatever you want, remember to go to sleep early your only a small child after all. Good night."
"Mmm, good night mummy."
Anyways it's now around 9 at night, and I have nothing to do. I have no plan whatsoever.
Just what can I do now? Maybe unlocking my weapon will change something, and if I do unlock it just where could I possible store it...
Grrrr...
Ughh I'm so hungry, I haven't eaten anything in hours now. I better get to that fridge before I collapse from hunger.
After stuffing my face with food for a little while I felt stuffed as hell, in fact I felt like I was about to explode. But then soon after I became hungry again.
And so I stuffed myself again, and I felt hungry again.
What the hell!
Just what is going on with my body right now!?
I'm so goddamn hungry yet no food is filling me up. Not only that after every meal it's only helping less and less.
The shop!

Fate Store: -F Rank-
•Beef Jerky, 1 Fate Coin
•Water, 1 Fate Coin

A single beef jerky appeared in my hand, a single one!
Either way I stuffed my face with it, soon after swallowing down the strip I no longer felt any hunger. The problem was gone for now.

Hunger Satiated - 1 Day
-----
Your telling me that I'll be having to deal with this every single day, and not only that I only have 49 Fate Coins remaining. Meaning I can only last 49 days, 49!
Not only that if I want to purchase a weapon it would cost 25, so in fact I only have about 24 days now!
So this is basically a count down to my death, meaning I only have 24 days remaining.
24 days until I die of starvation, is this meant to be a joke!
