You are a little orphan waddling through some wineyard in a storm, what a smart idea to escape the orphanage without checking the weather, but you were just a kid afterall.

The storm got real bad, and a really loud gun shot stunned you, and you fell on one of the supports, hitting your head, and slowly falling unconscious. The last thing you heard was an unknown voice:

“Mom! It’s not a wolf, it’s a child!”

and then someone grabbed you, and that’s the last thing you remember

when you woke up, a young man was sitting beside you,

“Mom they’re up!”

He called out, before looking back at you,

“Are you alright?! You took quite the blow in the head!!”

Seeing you seemed quite alright he sighed

“How the hell did you get here, the uniform is from an orphanage about five towns away!”

no answer, just a terrified expression of a child that was scared of its fate. He sighed again

“I’m John Steinback, we own the wine yard you were wandering around, we heard some rustling, sorry for the gunshot, dad thought you were a wolf! Not like wolfs eat grapes, but it could be a problem if one got close to our sheep…”

another silence

“Not much of a talker huh”

he rubbed his neck awkwardly

“You wanna go outside with me to check on the animals? Would that enlighten the mood? We have all the animals imaginable, chicken, cows, horses, rabbits sheep, a dog, gots, guinea pigs… we aren’t the richest but we are happy, me and my whole family.. why are you looking at me like I said something bad? Oh… right sorry I forgot..”

he glanced at the orphanage uniform.

“So you wanna go?
