"Hmm, that's a pretty one you have there" hummed a middle aged lady in a blue gown, her hand reaching out to push her glasses to the bridge of her nose. Her grey eyes staring down at the petite looking child who stood with her head down "Where did you find her, Martha?"

"Madame, I found her behind an alley" Martha answered, her hair was tied to a bun and she wore a maid's uniform

"Get her cleaned and take her to the room" Martha nodded with a bow and took the child by her tiny hand which were covered with dirt

The little girl still had her head down, her brown hair was slightly dishevelled and her hands stood shakingly at the side

She heard the sound of a metal door creak open and Martha slowly took her inside

"Here, child. This is where you'll be staying, why don't you raise your head and have a look" Martha urged but the little girl's head was faced to the cemented ground

"Aunt Martha..." another's child voice was heard and the little girl shivered backward hearing the rough footsteps approaching her

"I warned you not to run around Anna, you'll get injured if you were to fall down" Martha strictly warned and Anna stopped in her tracks before slowly walking to where they stood

"Is she my new roommate, Aunt Martha?"

"Anna, this is Harmony. Harmony, this is Anna...you both would be sharing a room from now on" Martha replied, in hope that the little one would at least utter a word but none left her lips

"Hello Harmony, I'm Anna. Your new best friend" Anna said, excitement lacing in her eyes. Harmony didn't glance up still and stared at her muddy bare feet

"Why don't you assist Harmony in the bath, Anna. I'm still needed in the kitchen " Anna nodded excitedly and stared expectedly at Harmony

Martha left the room and the sound of the metal door closing could be heard. Harmony then raised her head to stare at the closed door

"Come Harmony, this way" And with slow movements, she turned her head to stare at the girl who stood before her. A wide smile plastered on Anna's lips as she walked inside the other door in the room

Harmony's eyes scanned the room where there were only two small beds and a tiny cupboard

Outside, Martha stared at the closed door and a frown slowly etched on her lips before she walked away
