6 Chapter 5

Okay this is awkward, oh wait I should probably tell what exactly is going on here. Yup okay, i'm only going to say this once, well after they arrived, a matron came into the library to let me know the interviewers were here. "Wait they're here now," I looked at her surprised. "Yes they are and they're waiting for you" she replied, smiling.

I headed to the sitting room passing the other orphan's peering eyes'. I could tell they were curious as to why interviewers would be interviewing me and i'm kinda in the same boat as them. I'm dying to know what's going on, hopefully nothing to bad I hope.

Okay i'm outside the door to the sitting room. 'Crap, I'm so nervous, what if I stuff up this interview,' I thought to myself, panicking. I then realise something, "What the hell am I panicking about I don't even know what this interview is really about," I grumble to myself completely confused.

"Zero come in please, I don't want to hear you talking to yourself in the hallway from in here," The Head Matron said through the door with amusement in her voice. "Oh shucks," I jumped out of my thoughts and went bright red. Opening the door, I headed inside towards my demise. Gulping deep into my throat as I saw a man and a woman sitting on the opposite side, across from the matron on one of the two sofas.

"Now let me introduce you to Mr and Mrs Lawliet," I nodded at them, listening to what the Head Matron was saying and they smiled when I nodded at them. 'I wonder what that was about,' I questioned in my head, weirded out by all of it, and this is why it's awkward.

"So why am I here Heady," I asked, calling her, her nickname, still confused. "Oh right, well Mr and Mrs Lawliet wanted to ask you some questions," She replied. 'Okay she sounded like she was hiding something,' I looked at the married couple with a frown.

"Zero please call me Lucy and my husband James" The woman named Lucy Lawliet said. I looked at her with a blank stare that unnerved them all, thinking 'woman I just met you and you want all of us to be on first name bases already, something is seriously telling me something fishy is going on here.' "We are here to ask you a few questions" James finished dor his wife. 'Nah, you're here to tell me about your day' I thought sarcastically. "Okay, so what are they?" I asked. "Alright, Do you like your life in the orphanage?" he looked serious. "It's okay I guess," James nodded his head at my answer. "How are you around the other children?" Lucy leaned forward on the seat. "I-I can't talk to them like a normal kid, so not good," I looked at them, not knowing what would happen next. "Do you want to be adopted?"
