Wildfire

The air is smokey, the building is hot, my lamp fell over. I watched in awe as the fire grew over time. It was absolutely awful. Mum and Dad are still in the burning building. 

Half of the building falls over, and I start to walk away. But, a small piece of paper catches my eye.

My bab. Plz don leav. I nee u. Mum and da ned u.

The note was very strange. Partly because the old handwriting was sloppy. And the fact it had missing words. The small message was written on a note card.

Could this be a sign? Or is it for a different child?

I decided to stay and wait. A fireman walks over and i quickly act like I was crying.

"Miss, your parents are dead," He whispers in my ear.

Inside I'm smirking, but really my face shows no emotion. I would have to go back to the orphanage, now that mum and dad are dead. My sister probably was in the house as well.

I walk home feeling like I have done a great deed:

Father would be happy, but he's probably working away doing his devil stuff.

Please don't even say it, these are awful.
