John

The sky was filled with white clouds and the sun was shinning it's light. People were working and others were playing and having fun. When it was lunchtime the clouds were going darker and darker, after five minutes the sky was black, there were winds and trees were swinging left to right. Then rains started to drop one by one, drop by drop. The rain started afterwards to be heavy, like a hard rock.
Then rain stopped to drop after two hours and people went out to have a look and some went out with their bikes and played and had fun.
But there was a woman whose name was Nancy, she was pregnant, and that day she was going to deliver a baby, so she was found laying on the ground and was suffering from the pain, and Nancy was seen by a young lady who was working as a nurse, her name was Angela, she took Nancy to the hospital. When Angela went to the hospital, she searched for a doctor, when she has found that doctor whose name was Doctor William, the three of them then went to the birth room, he baby sneezed then started to cry loudly, when Nancy heard her child crying she was happy, her face was pale and she said in a faint voice:" let me see the child and die."
The Doctor William and Angela jumped together and said in horror:"oh,madam please don't say these words, you will need to be strong to care for your baby."
Nancy hold her baby and put her lips on her baby's forehead as the baby cried. Then she left him beside the bed and said in a faint voice again:" please take care of my child, he looks healthy."
Then she died and the William went to check her pulse, he couldn't find one, then went to check her heart beat but no use, so he said to Angela in a pitty voice: "her blood is frozen,frozen for ever."
Then he checked her fingers for a wedding ring, he couldn't find one, so he sighed:" no wedding ...well goodnight."
Angela jumped and said to him:" what are you leaving the boy like that?"
William said: "take care of him today and tomorrow will search a place for him to live in." So Angela gave the baby a milk, she looked at him and said: "if you were my child I was going to call you John,John Babage."
When it was time for Angela to leavefor rest, she passed by a shopto buy babies things, after she had bought John's things she went to her apartment where it was at the end of the road of the baby apartment was so small, it had only four rooms, one is her bedroom, kitchen , bathroom and midnight had arrived, she was still awake, for she was thinking about John and what is she going to do to save him, from the cruelty that he is going to recieve in a workhouse.
The next day came and the water dried from the roads and the people were doing their things as usual, Angela had finished cleaning, and she started to think again, but this time it was different, she was thinking about William, whom she had known from the time she entered the hospital, and the two of them were talking friendly, and they loved each other, and through the two months he didn't ask for her marriage.
Then she heard bell ringing, she went to open the door, and in front of her she saw William, she was amazed cause he never came to her house.
William entered the house and said:" I have found a place for him to stay."
Angela then asked him:" Where is that place?"
William had putten his hand in his suit, and took out a small box, he left it between his hand, Angela was trying to figure out when they sat for 2minutes William opened the box, there was a ring, with a precious stone on top of the ring. William said in his normal voice:" John will be living with us if you have accepted the marriage of us."
Angela accepted his offer.
After two months of the marriage between William and Angela, John was adopted by the couples, and he didn't know that he has no mother nor father, and he ws borned disabled.
Two years past by, and John grew, he was still healthy and disabled, and this problem will stay with him for the rest of his life,he used to talk alot, he had a baby brother named Oliver, and John had a neckless everywhere he went Angela would keep it in his pocket, because inside was his real mother's photograph. Angela told John to keep this neckless because it is his precious gift.
William who became a father, had enough money to keep the family happy and study who became a mother, had retired to sit with the children and do the house works.
After one more year William finished his degree and had more money to put John in school to start learning from the age of three, but John used to skip school, and when his parents knew they would beat him,and he used to cry and would stay alone until the next day and skip again.
One year past, William decided to take John out of school till when he was six years old, Angela accepted that because she saw John used to skip and return home.
When John was eighteen yearsold he finished his school, William and Angela decided to tell the truth about the neckless, because whenever John asked them they said that they would tell him when he grows.
So, when the holidays came, William and Angela said to John the truth about him, right that John was upset, and said that he will search for his father, he thanked his foster parent for taking care of him from when he was small, after that Oliver knew the truth of John and was sad too, because maybe he won't see his big brother as he used to call him.
After the holiday finished and John found a university for electricity, he started to study and send his mother's pictures to the newspapers so he could find his father.
After two months of the advertisement John went to his foster parent when they called him from the university, so he went back on the same day and was worried about when he reached there,he saw Oliver playing with a boy about 12 years old, and beside that boy he saw a man talking to William and looking at Oliver and that small boy while they were playing, so he went and greeted them, then Oliver said to John:"Hey, big brother, how is the university?"
John said that the university is good, and he is doing fine in his studies, he then asked about his mother, Oliver said that she is in the kitchen, he went to her and greeted, she was happy when he saw her.
After talking with her about his studies and the university he asked her:"hmm... mum, may i know who are those two guests?"
"Afterwards honey, afterwards, just go and take a nap, and i will send Oliver to wake you up",Angela said so John shook his head and went to take a nap.
When it was time for them to eat, they told John that this is his real father and his little brother, John was surprised that found his real father, but he didn't know that he had a brother, but he was happy.
John went to sleep in his father's house with his little brother and had settled there because it was near to his 6 years john got married and had a baby girl, he and his wife lived happily ever after.
