"I raised you all these years and this is how you repay me?"

I sneered back, "If by nurturing you mean locking me up in the attic and assigning me the appropriate amount of food based on the amount of chores I do, then why don't you raise Alice that way?"

For years, almost every drop of my heart and soul went to subsidising my adoptive parents, paying off the gambling debts they owed, and keeping their-pack's running.

But they never changed their ways, they were still addicted to gambling, and this endless vicious cycle exhausted me.

But now, I'm finally free.

I'm free to decide where my money goes, free to spend it on people and things that matter.

As I sat at the small kitchen table, sunlight filtering through the window, I weighed the possibilities in my mind.

What did I want to do with this newfound freedom? My thoughts drifted to the orphanage, a place that had always held a special spot in my heart.

Once, I was nearly an orphan myself, and now that I had the means, I wanted to help those children, to give them a future brighter than the one that had once seemed destined for me. The decision came quietly, like a gentle breeze stirring the leaves.

I would keep some of the money for myself, for small pleasures and future needs, but the rest-yes, the rest would go to the orphanage.

Those children deserved better.
