The Man Outside the Window
William return to his room after a while, with Mr. Smith. but when he is about to enter the room, Mr. Smith stop him. Mr. Smith can see manager face and he knew there is something wrong here. it only take a single nod and meaningful stare for them to know what to do.
"William, how about you go with me outside. i see there is...something fall outside the window but i don't know what it is. let Mr. Smith take care of it, and we can see it later, okay?" said manager to William.
"okay... but you sure it isn't a ghost right ?" William said while looking down. he looks really scared, manager thought.
not really, William thought, as he see a concerning look in manager's face.
"i'm sure William. let's go down boy. we'll see what we can do this evening" said manager

Mr. Smith look at the wounded man with worry. what should he do with him? did he die? his wound look so scary, what is it that hurt him?
but then he see the man moving slightly. he is still breathing!!
Mr. Smith quickly go out the window and carry the man to William bed. since the most Horendous wound on him is on his back, Mr. Smith put the man face down. then Mr. Smith run quickly to look for other orphanage care taker to help him dress the man wound.
in the span of 2 hour, the man wound already Neatlly dressed. but Mr. Smith know that this is only temporary solution. he must tell the manager to take this man to hospital, so they can save his life. it will cost quite a sum, but at least they safe a life. and so Mr. Smith decide to call manager right away to tell his decision for the wounded man.

at 5 in the evening, manager is seen sit on the bench in the orphanage park. she is watching kids playing Happily, chasing each other or just racing among themself. this orphanage never give the child any gadget, either it is phone or tablet. it is because manager believe that kids need to express themself physically, not through social media.
Mr. Smith come to see her. he found manager sit while watching the kid. he sit beside manager and tell her about his decision.
"Manager, i think we should take the wounded man to the hospital." said Mr. Smith.
"did you check his condition? can he be saved?" asked manager, still looking at the childrens, especially William. he looks quite cheerful right now.
"I did. but we can only do so much with out emergency medical kit. we cannot make sure his life will be saved if he stay here." said Mr. Smith again. he also look at the childrens.
"i understand. we have to take him to hospital immedietly. can you help me to take him to hospital?" Asked manager to Mr. Smith
"i will. I'll prepare the car right now." said Mr. Smith while he stand up.
"thank you dear, i know i can always count on you. i just sad that i can't do more that counting on you"
"take your time, Margareth. i know what happen and i won't make you do anything that you don't like." said Mr. Smith while he walk away.

later at 7, i am sitting with other orphan kids in dinning room. today's dinner will be mashed potato with slice of meat hidden in it.
this is one of our inside games. whoever got the most meat slice, will be able to boast his luck for the whole night. being lucky is such a pride here.
a few minutes ago, i take my time to return to my room. i can see a red stain on my bed, but i don't know what it is. by the way, manager never tell me about that thing that scare me this evening. maybe i should ask manager later.
