Okay, well this story is based on the horror film Orphan, but not copied. I hope you enjoy.
Part 1
"So, we're getting a new sister?" asked Bella excitedly at the thought.
"A brother or sister," replied her mum, Jane.
"Do we really have to? I mean it's not like she's ever going to be like Lily," complained Alex, Jane's other son.
"Alex!" cried his dad.
"What, I mean it's just a fact-"
"I know that. I am going to forget the past and think about the future," replied his mum, taking a deep breath. Her husband smiled.
When they arrived at the Orphanage, it was full of playing children. The walls were covered in orange bricks and there were flowers under ever windowsill. "This looks like a lovely place," said Bella, clapping her hands.
"It does, darling," said Jane. Alex agreed, but didn't say anything. When they walked in they were greeted by a young woman.
"Are you Mr. and Mrs. Foster?" she asked.
"We are indeed, but call us Jane and Daniel," said Daniel. The woman smiled.
"Would you mind me letting the children play outside my office for a bit? I mean we need to talk in private," the woman asked.
"Of course," said Jane. "Bella! Alex! Play out here for a bit, while I chat to this lady!"
"I don't want to play with this silly baby stuff-" started Alex, but stopped when he saw his father's face. Bella, however grinned at all the toys and started to play with them happily.
"So, what has made you decide to adopt a child?" asked the woman, whose name was Emma.
"Well, we had a little girl, Lily. She died before she was born and we've been very upset for a year now. Then, we realized we could adopt so we thought this would be a good option," said Jane.
"Okay, then. Let's show you who we've got."
