Chapter. 3 New Home?

Rena's POV

It's been five days since I admitted in the hospital. My wound is getting better. I could barely feel any pain. Dr.Melissa said that I heal very fast and that I'll most likely be discharged soon. That means I need to find a place to go...I don't know where, but I have a clue...Dr.Melissa told me yesterday, that if no one is coming to take me, I'll mostly likely end up in an orphanage. Since the hospital is taking care of me and that I have no parents or guardians whatsoever. It is legal for the hospital to take responsibility for me and apply an orphanage for me. Dr.Melissa said that the good news was that the hospital has opened an orphanage that is perfectly made for situation similar to mine, so I can stay in the hospital's orphanage. Which means the kids I've been seeing around in the hospital are the kids that lives in the orphanage. They seem really happy in the orphanage. Maybe that would be my new home....?

*The next day*

Day Six of me being in here. Even though Dr.Melissa said that she would still let me stay in the hospital for two weeks before I signed for the orphanage. I still feel a little anxious...Is this really it? Am I really going to be an orphan...? I decided to went to a nearby garden for some fresh air. The garden was safe since it's made just for patients of the hospital. I was walking until a little girl bumped into me. She has Blonde hair and pink eyes. She seem timid and shy. She bumped into me from my back, and fell to the ground.

She immediately stood up and said "I'm so...so sorry!.... I-I...didn't m-mean to....Are-are you alright...?" She seems to be more worried about me than herself. I told her "I'm fine." and I left. Not long after she suddenly shouted "W-Wait!" I turned back to her and said "Yes?" She looked nervous. Maybe she wants to ask me something? I told her "Is something the matter?" She replied "Um....It's ....It's just that I never seen you around before...and...uhh.... Dr.Melissa said that there might...might be a new child that would...would be joining in the orphanage... So...uh...I-I was wondering if your...maybe the new child?" I looked at her and said "Maybe. Why are you so curious about this?" She suddenly look wronged, as if I stated something that she shouldn't do. She then said in soft but hearable voice "Oh...I'm sorry... I shouldn't ask too much...You must be busy. I'm sorry I wasted your time....I should get going now... Hope to see you again..." I looked at her as she left. The wind started blowing a little stronger than usual. Why do I feel that I lost something? Maybe I only realised this now, but the truth was that I lost a lot of things in my life. I never understand why, but I guess this is my life and this is how it's going to be...

Dr. Melissa came in to see me the next day. She told me "It's been a week, kid. There's still a possibility that someone might come and get you but since it's been a week. The possibility of you having to be signed as one of the orphan in this hospital is also quite high." I then cut her off by saying " What are you trying to say?" She then said "Your quite smart. Huh? I was just looking out for you so I'm gonna do you a favor! I'm going to introduce you to one of the best orphans in this hospital. Since you seem like a kid that would grow up into a nerd, I'm worried that you'll end up not having any friends and getting bullied at school. So be nice to her when you meet her!" I looked at her and replied "So is this it? You want me to make a friend? So I won't get bullied?" She looked at me in a weird way and said "Hey, why are you saying like I'm trying to harm you? You should at least learn to say thank you. I'm kind of worried that sometimes you just seem expressionless. Or more so like a block of ice. So cold and quite. As if you know what you're doing but no one knows what your thinking." I looked at her surprised at how she described me. "Really?" I asked her. She said "Well, this is just my thoughts and opinions. But I bet that when you finally meet some people outside they might say the some thing too~"

Hmm...I never thought of this... An ice...Isn't it just a solid object than is cold? Made from water under low temperature then turn slight transparent and solid. There's quite a few type of ice too. The blocks of ice that we put in our drinks. The flat ice on surface that some people use to ice skate on. The ice spikes when water froze at a place. And ice that humans use to make into different shapes and sizes. What kind of ice would I be? Maybe just ice, nothing more than that. This thought is in my head, thinking about what kind of ice I would be. But then again, this shouldn't be my biggest worry. Now I'm supposed to meet with one of the orphans. I wonder who would she be or how would she look like...

I looked out through the window in my ward as the wind blew through my hair from the window. It just finished raining and the wind is cold and nice... Then I hear a creak from my door. The orphan that I'm about to meet must have arrived. "Um...hello?" What a familiar voice. I turned my head and saw her. It's her. "Ah...It's you."she said. "We meet again" I replied.

Aaaannnndddddddd~
