The light was so bright. It was hard to stay sleep, which was what he wanted to do. Mama always said that when the sun was just at its peak...that meant nap time. Some of the nurses thought the same thing, so it had to be true. But Nathan couldn't keep his eyes closed, feeling his eye lids flutter slightly as the sun light continued to shine upon his face. Nap time seemed to be over for now, leaving the small boy in a half awakened state.
All the surrounding noises seemed to come to him all at once. The crying babies, the snoring children that laid beside his mat. It was all so loud, so busy. It reminded him of his parents supermarket...The one he was never to go back to. Lilith had said so....she said that Mama was still mad at him for what he did. Not only that, but Papa was mad too. He didn't want to be in trouble,especially since it was an accident.
I...I didn't mean to knock down all the plates...I tripped...But Mama...she looked so mad......and then she hit my hand...
Holding his small hand in the palm of the other, Nathan sniffled as he felt a small tear slide down his face before wiping it away and standing up. From there, the boy walked down the rows of infants, blinking as he saw them fidget and fuss. They still looked cute though, causing him to smile as he made his way to the door.
