251 A Better Life

It was Sunday evening and the night sky was out. Inside Black Rock orphanage, Kevin was helping Suzan tuck in the other kids since it was bedtime and Innu was tucking in one of the little girls that was rubbing her eyes.

“Is… Big Brother Innu still not coming today?” A small girl yawned, as she was struggling to keep her eyes open. Usually she would have been asleep by now, and Kevin knew she had stayed up just to see him.

“I’m sorry, Innu seems to be busy this weekend, but I’m sure he will visit us soon. Don't worry, you have a lot of time to see him.” Kevin smiled and waited until she fell asleep.

It wasn’t something he had to do, but since he was a bit older than rest, he had volunteered to help out, just like every other night. They all knew that Suzan had a lot on her plate, so the teenager wanted to help her at least a little.

Kevin let out a little sigh.
