Bab 2: The Dunphys are adopting me
The next day I woke up.
I suddenly saw a middle-aged man and woman in front of me.
"Ahhhhh. Who are you?", I asked them warily. They seemed familiar, but I didn't remember from where.
"Everything alright little boy? We saw you sleeping in here. Don't worry we already called the ambulance. The police will also come soon. If something happened to you you can tell them", the middle-aged man said.
"I am Phil Dunphy by the way. This is my wife Claire Dunphy. I am the real estate agent who sells this house and I live in the house on the opposite side.", the man introduced himself. I suddenly realized who he was. He is one of the protagonists of the TV series Modern Family from the Memories.
I suddenly heard sirens and saw an ambulance and a police car coming from the distance.
I saw some paramedics coming this way.
Out of the police car, I saw the female police officer who brought me back to the police station yesterday.
After seeing me she suddenly ran towards me and hugged me.
"There you are, little boy. We searched for you the whole night. We were all completely worried", she said.
The paramedics soon came up to me and observed my condition.
"He is physically alright besides some minor scratches. Sadly he's severely malnourished. He is only 5 years old. Due to this it probably won't leave any traces if he's getting enough food to eat in the future", one of the paramedics said.
"That's good", the officer heaved a sigh of relief.
"Come little guy. You will be coming back to the police station and soon go towards a good orphanage", the officer said.
"NO! NO! PLEASE NO! NO ORPHANAGE!", I said screamingly and in tears after hearing the words orphanage and began to run towards the Dunphys. I hid behind them.
I knew that the Orphanage would probably be a good one, but what if it wasn't? I couldn't repel that train of thought.
"He is probably severely traumatized", one of the paramedics said again.
"I want to adopt him!", Claire suddenly said firmly.
She had heard my screams and it tugged her mother's heart. Her son Luke was born a few months ago. She still had her maternal instincts at her peak and my screams touched her heartstrings.
"Really?" x3, Phil, the officer and me asked.
Phil and the officer were in confusion and I was in hope. I knew the Dunphys were a good family. It would be the best. I wouldn't need to run away or go to an orphanage.
"Yes, please Phil. Look at him. He is so cute and he could be a perfect older brother for Luke and Alex. And we would be even. 2 boys and 2 girls"
"Would you not like to hear his backstory first?", the police officer asked.
"Of course, but if he isn't some killer I would love to raise him as my own", Claire replied.
Soon after the police officer told them everything she knew.
After hearing everything Claire walked towards me and just hugged me. I knew the Dunphys were the perfect adoption family for me.
"You would still need to go back to fill out some files in the Police Station little guy and you two would need to sign a few legal documents", the police officer said.
"What is your name little guy?", Phil curiously asked.
"Gabriel, sir Dunphy"
"You can call me dad from now on little guy", even though Phil only knew me for a few minutes he already started to love me like his own child.
We soon after went towards the Police Station to sign every document and everything.
It took about a week and I was legally the child of the Dunphys.
I still didn't know anyone of their relatives as they weren't here yet. But I shared a room with the 5-year-old Haley. The little 3-year-old Alex and the 3-month-old Luke shared a room too. I got along with all of them very well.
Haley accepted me as her sibling, Alex thought I was her biological sibling and Luke couldn't even understand anything yet.
I loved my new family. I got plenty to eat and read. I loved reading books about knowledge. Especially electricity and magnetic. As well as I.T. knowledge.
