1 Ch.1 The Red Candy

"Fannie, go get yourself some fresh air or you will get yourself asthma or SBS" Hazel shouts from the down stairs.

Fannie rub her eyes and nod then she shifts to her other side to sleep again.

*CREAKKKKKKKK* groaning sound when Hazel opens the door

"It's enough now get yourself ready everyone is waiting for you. I want you downstairs in 5 min. Or you won't be getting your dinner to-" Hazel continues but gets interrupted by Fannie

"ohk ohk I'll be downstairs in 2 mins Ima"

Hazel gives a small smile and leave the room

....

Hazel is a dowager of the Orphanage I live in. I call her Ima as she is the only person in here who loves me and take good care of me just as a mother.

She's in her 40s but look a lot younger than her age cuz of her scrawny body and Genuine Smile.

though she's uncompromising when it comes to the rules. :')

....

"Fannie you are late again, little ones let's not squander the time anymore hurry and go. But remember to return before the dinner." Lilly said while opening the main door.

"I'm sorry " Fannie murmurs to herself while the rest others gave her an unpleasant look.

She was the only girl in the orphanage with no friends. She's usually with Hazel or some times by herself as no other child comes near her cuz of her shabby dress up and sheepish nature. She was brought into the orphanage a year ago when her parents died in an car accident.

She tried talking to the other children at the beginning but couldn't succeed.

"Yaayy we are finally here" a lil girl called out happily and started toing and froing in the playground, the rest others followed her. Except Fannie as she started searching for a place to sit what she usually does.

And Finally found a peaceful corner for herself to sit and view the entire ground.

She reached her pocket while sitting to take out a candy.

It was a healthy environment with birds chirping as if singing and saying "have a great day "and a puppy replying "yea thanks and you too" trees dancing as they are enjoying the song with joy in their languages, Fannie was enjoying the view until a tiny boy caught her eyes, Who was sitting a lil far from her under the tree. Fannie outstare at the boy and discern that he is sobbing. As soon as the taste of the candy disappeared, she stood up and walked towards him, "Want one? it's delectable" Fannie offered few candies with a pleasant smile.
