A woman like me who earns dirty money in her hands doesn't deserve to kneel in front of the altar right now.
The other religious sisters kneeled on the floor, their hands closed and placed on the top of the back wooden seats, they prayed silently.
Sister Margaret was beside me, muttering her prayers quietly while her eyes were shut as I stared at the large cross of the Lord hanging on the altar.
I look down at my closed and yet trembling hands
" Stella, are you right, dear? " Sister Margaret asked
and placed her soft hands on my shoulder. I gave her a small smile and nodded my head
" If you're done, we can proceed outside," She says.
I did the sign of the cross and we both stood, leaving the small altar inside the home care. I smiled as the kids ran over to me when they saw me finally out
" Hi, Hayley! " I greet the young girl who sat in the wheelchair and grins at me.
Her older brother Fred was behind her, helping her. I leaned down and gave her a hug
" your hair grew! " she exclaimed and touched my hair with her fingers.
I smiled and nodded my head, placing my hand softly on her cheeks as I caressed my thumb on her smooth skin
" of course hon, I hope you had a great day with your friends. " I said as Fred smiled at me and gave me a warm hug too
" I did! " Hayley replies.
I looked at Fred and sent him a look as he nodded at me and I stood behind Hayley's wheelchair
" I'll take her out for a while," I said to sister Margaret who smiled at me.
I took them out Hayley in the garden and we both sat on the bench beside her
I smiled as the other children played in the background. The wind blows and the birds chirp in the tree
" I heard sister Anne and the others were talking to someone, we heard they mentioned our name and Fred thinks we're finally gonna be adopted " She explained, I glanced at her and saw the frown on her face.
Until a young boy around her age walked past by near us, and Hayley's eyes followed him.
A glint of slight happiness formed in her eyes when she saw the young boy.
" you like someone here? " I asked
She turned to me and I chuckled softly when I saw her cheeks turn pink as her eyes widened.
