A house full of children

When they both arrived at the orphanage, the nokken was astonished.

It was really as the girl said, a house full of children!

The lawn around the house was filled with laughter.

There were toddlers digging in the sand, smaller kids playing hide and seek, older kids playing ball games and teenagers reading books.

The nokken felt his fingers tingling and wanted to reach for his violin.... Almost forgeting that he didn't have it with him.

Without it, he couldn't do anything. And he would be seen if he tried anything else.

Also the girl was preventing him from running away.

Little girl:"Mother Anne!"

She rushed inside.

Little girl:"I found a boy!"
