The party

Two days later the children at Haven which is the name of the orphanage were excited and Mira even from her bedroom would hear their happy squeals.

She grabbed her phone from the nightstand and checked the time it was already 10am.

She had been busy yesterday cooking for her sisters and mom who had gone to the hospital for their mom's appointment with the doctor.

She was left with Rose and Ryan to look after and she had to run around checking on both of them to make sure they were alright.

Good enough Ryan later slept and she was left to battle with the playful Rose.

The trio had later come back with aunt Romen.

Eva and Romen had talked for a long time and later at around 11pm Mira came back.

Mira hadn't put her phone back when the children barged into the room.

The other two who shared the room were already up.

Paula was out and the other girl Natasha was sitted on her bed up. She was only 17 but she was one who didn't give a damn.

So when the children barged in, she shouted at them to scram. Some ran away but the bold ones stayed.

"We are going for a party one of the kids said. Aunt (meaning aunt Anna) has said that not all of us are going another girl said.

She was 12 and though young she was very proud and many times she bullied other kids because she was liked by aunt Anna.

Aunt Anna had spent twenty something years in the orphanage and naturally she liked some kids more than the others.

At times she would even treat the kids in an unfair manner.

After hearing the word party, Natasha became excited too, she forgot about scolding the kids and she immediately rushed out of the room with them to question them further.

Mira simply got out of bed and entered the bathroom.

Her only prayer was that the party wasn't staged here at home. It was really stressful.

When she stepped out of the bathroom, Natasha was sitted on her bed.

"Ahh okay tell me" Mira said. Ehhh.. Natasha started with a smile plastered on her face.

"All the big boys are going, we are going too." she said excitedly.

"Me too?" Mira asked surprised. Yes Natasha said.

She was surprised because for such events if aunt Romen didn't choose the ones going, then aunt Anna chose them and of course only her favourites would go in the end.

She was good at pretending to like someone but she only did that with a motive.

Of course Mira and Paula were not fooled by her even when she was nice to them that is why Mira was surprised that everyone in her room was going to attend the party.

"Afew of the young kids are going and the party is at a hotel, it is Mr. Abo sponsoring everything." Natasha continued.

Mr. Abo was a rich man who had taken a liking to a baby boy on one of his visits to the Haven and had decided to sponsor the baby and all his education. The boy was brought at the end of the previous year and he was now 9 months.

"Oh okay" Mira said. "I can see you are excited." she added as she dressed up.

"Of course," Natasha answered. "Do you know what it means to be indoors for a long time? When you get the chance make use of it."she added.

"Yea..yea you are right", Mira answered. "As for me am only excited about the food." Mira winked.
