Courtroom in Chaos as Foster Kid’s Secret Finally Comes Out
The Silent Wish
Olive moved like a shadow, quiet and watchful, barely making a sound all day. Dressed in her nicest outfit, she sat silently in the car as they drove through town toward the courthouse. Not a word slipped out as her potential new parents spoke to the judge, each trying to prove they were the best fit for her.
Deep inside, though, she was nervous with emotions she didn’t know how to express. Then, just as she thought she could stay unnoticed, the judge turned her way, eyes expectant, waiting for Olive’s words. With her heart racing, all Olive could do was silently wish she could fade away.
