The old Orphanage

For our narrative writing I choose to write a story on an old Orphanage.
It is about a girl named Lily and her best friend Katie, the story involves twists and adventure, emotions and drama.
Read my story and give me feedback down in the comments.

Have you ever written a story on an Orphanage?


One cold and frosty evening, Lily laid and waited at the chipped second floor window at the old Orphanage. Mumbling to herself saying one day she would find her long lost parents.
Lily was very sneaky she would always discover information behind Bootswagens back.
She tried over and over again to find out more information but living in an orphanage was hard, all the time she would wonder about them.

One bitter cold night, Lily laid in the bed of the old closets (rooms) imaging what her parents actually looked like. She sat up and decided to whisper to Katie (her best friend)  ̈ ̈Katie do you ever wonder about what your parents look like?̈ questioned Lily, looking for an answer.
Katie looked unsure like someone told her that ice cream isn't healthy. (which it isn ́t) even though Katie had an unsure expression on her face she replied with ̈ I always thought that my parents were somewhat different¨ She shuddered before drifting back to sleep.

Lily always thought that her parents had glossy blonde hair and crystal blue eyes that stream out like bubbly rivers. But that was just a fantasy for lily, nothing but imagination.
So far all she knows is that her parents took one look at her and said ̈ ewww…. Gross give her back ̈ and then left her on the orphanage steps.  But that was coming from the old bot of a lady Ms Bootswagen.

Deep down she knows her parents love her with all their heart. Katie was helping her figure out her true parents and how to escape this broken down orphanage.Ms Bootswagen came thumping through the corridor banging on the doors yelling ̈Quiet you noisy brats ̈ Katie and Lily ducked the remainder the covers pretending to be asleep right before Bootswagen arrived.

The next morning, a lady wearing a very formal outfit demanded that Katie was to be handed over. Her crippling voice shaking the hallway, Ms Bootswagen didn ́t hesitate she threw Katie's clothes into a black rubbish bag that had a giant rip in it. Lily was shocked but Bootswagen just grabbed by the wrist and crammed her tiny body into the mustard yellow cab.

Lily ran to the window and looked at Katie, through the glare Katie stared back, tears silently rolled down Lilyś pale face. She watched as the cab drove off into the distance, never to be seen again.What was she going to do? Well luckily she has heaps of plans, But right now she couldn't do any of her work, so devastated. She crawled into a ball tears dripping like a broken tape, her flood of tear puddling beneath her.

A whole week later a very nice couple came and picked Lily up to take her in. At the couples house there was a tiny room with a tiny closet and a bunk bed.She pulled all the notes out and slammed it on the table then she found a piece of paper she was never seen before.
It was the address and the names of her parents she assumed, Agatha and Danny.
She found out that they live in London.

Later that night she jumped out of the window and fell in a bush ran through the park and jumped on a carriage that took her all the way to London.
Lily was nervous she scrambled to find the paper, luckily it was still there brutally crinkled paper with faint ink sploshes.

Once at the dock where the carriage stopped for some reason.Lily slipped of like she was a snake slithering for prey. She ducked onto this little dingy on the edge of the water and hung out there till no one was above. She ran to the streets of London and saw a sign that said bread for a dollar, but being alone at an orphanage you never got pocket money.
Even though Lily was poor when she was at the orphanage she would always steal food and cash from Bootswagen. Since being a mini thief, off went lily pick pocketing money.
After a we bit she managed to scrape up enough money to buy her a loaf of bread and a can of soda. She pulled the dotted paper out of her blue crusted jacket pocket.
The paper had the address for 19c Worthingham Crescent.

Lily ran through the streets of London until she stumbled across a newspaper stand.
They had hung a giant map, she scanned the wrinkled paper they call map.
She found where Worthingham Crescent on the map, she snatched a mini map.
It did not take her long to find Worthingham because it was a block over.
Down the street she found 20a, that was not it she kept running then she found 19c.
She knocked on the door, a lady opened it.

Lily decided to ask “Are you my Mum?” “Are you Agatha?” asked Lily anxiously.
The lady was shocked and just laughed, and laughed, but an evil laugh.
Then Lily felt someone shaking her then………..
It was all a blur Lily woke up and wiped the sweat off her head and there was her Mum.
Pheww….. Just a dream .
The End.
