Miss Rose /chp.4\

(Database's pov)

I looked around the room, I had just entered the orphanage

"Hello?" Said a voice from the stairs

I looked up to see a kid

"Hey, I came here to speak to miss Rose" I said

"Oh! Hold on please" said the kid who ran past the little girl that came to see what was going on, she followed behind the kid

I looked around the room once more, there was a front desk, which no one was at and some chairs

Soon the little girl came back and said "follow me please"

I walked up the stairs and followed behind her, we walked to the end of the hall and the girl opened the door and walked inside

The other kid looked at me then left the room

"Take a seat" she gesture to the chair

I took a seat "so you needed to see me?" She asked

"Yes you see some.... Cops reopened a case and wanted to see if maybe you knew anything about a kid" I said

"Oh?" She asked

"Uh- a kid, about 12? Years ago ended up going missing, did you get any kids at night around that time?" I asked

"Alone or with someone?" She asked "many people drop off their kids during night or day"

"The kid would have been alone" I say

She thinks about it "12 years ago? How old?"

'god how many kids get dropped off by themselves here?' I questions internally "uh- should have been around 4"

"4? Well there was one kid but he isn't here right now" she said

"Maybe I ask who?" I asked

"Uh- his name is Artemis" She said

"Artemis? Well was there anything odd about this?" I asked

"Just he was alone, crying and seemed injured? He had bandages" she said

"Thank you" I said and got up "that's everything we need"

She nodded her head as I left

'god I wish I had anything to contact Mary but she kinda fell off the face of the planet' I sighed and left the building

'but now I know at least, I need to find a way to speak to him, though the last time was awkward, pretty sure he still isn't happy at me for making Rikku cry'

I took note of everything, got in my car and drove to the school

-----

"What are you doing?" I asked Artemi who was against a tree outside of the school

"O-oh hi sir" he smiled nervously, guess he is scared of me, he most likely put on a brave face for work

"Hey kid, do you have time?" I asked

"Uh- well it depends on what time it is since I need to go grocery shopping around 5" he said

I sighed "it's about to be 5 but let me speak to you for a sec"

"O-okay" he said

"How much do you remember around the age of 4?" I asked

"Like nothing..." He said

'I want to say that's bad but it's for the best he doesn't remember the shit he went through'

"Why?" He asked

"Uh- was just wondering since I think I remember seeing around before" I said

"O-oh?" He asked

"Yeah at one point" I said 'I don't know if I should say now... He seems happy

"That's cool, maybe we can speak more later, I should get going but this was really nice to know" he put his SketchBook in is bag and pen, and got up

"See you next class" I wave and walk away 'I can't.... I can't tell him but maybe I can tell him about how his mom was nice? I have no clue I met her once'

I walked back into the school and went to my classroom to work and think things over
