Chapter 9

Everything is the same except for that child. That child seems to change.

She noticed her going out early every day for exercise. She noticed her pretty little young face. The air around her seems to change. She looks brighter and different.

Ms. Minchin doesn't know why but she was tasked to keep an eye on that child. An order from above. It was rare that those people would care for a child, this has not happened before. That child must be special and she wanted to find out why.

She's just another disgusting child who was abandoned. She still remembers the day that child was brought in. She doesn't want to accept her because the child has a relative. This is an orphanage for christ's sake.

After a while, Ms. Minchin just turned her head sideways and the woman who brought the child, run as fast as she could. Like thieve escaping from the police, she flees as fast as the lightning.

The child cried for hours with no sign of stopping so she ordered the servant to drag her out.

After that, the child became just another mouth to feed.

No one wants to adopt her because she is useless. She doesn't talk or play.

She's just an emotionless child that knows nothing.

But then again, Ms. Minchin was beyond surprised when an order came from above came. The same child that she forgot was to go to St. Catherine's school. A very prestigious school where only a few and selected people can go to.

What's so special about this child that they want her? that they chose her to go there?

Ms. Minchin is itching to find out.
