"Have you guys ever been to a ranch?" she asked and added, because she couldn't help herself, "Or ridden ponies, or had puppies, or even a pet duck?" she asked, she was excited now, maybe she'd be going home with them. She looked between the two and finished her sandwich, grinning between chewing and bites.

Haley ~
She looked at Mason with questioned eyes. She took one glance at the woman and smiled, flipping her brown hair through her fingers. We read a book yesterday about farms with animals. She perked up. And we took a trip to the zoo! The peacocks were my favorite. Mason liked the tigers. We named ours. She smiled sweetly, she finished her lunch and looked at Mason.

Villina laughed, "Well, that's lovely. I don't believe I've asked this, but I'm sorry if I'm wrong, but what is your names?" she asked, she didn't remember ever asking them and she seriously wanted to know, now she was positive theses were the two for her. She glanced at the lady at the door, who was watched her intently, the lady turned her head to one side and Villina nodded slowly, the women grinned and gave her a thumbs up.

Haley ~
I'm Haley Amanda Simmons. But my last name is temporary, until I find a new mommy and daddy. She said, putting her tray on her brother's try and putting them in the middle of the table. Now for desert, a special treat, ice cream. Haley had gotten chocolate ice cream with rainbow sprinkles on it.

Mason ~
My name is Mason Joseph Simmons. He said and asked if he could have vanilla ice cream with some chocolate and sprinkles. He smiled as they sat the bowl of yummy sweets infront of him. He picked up his spoon with unsteady hands and began to eat. He got icecream all over his mouth and cheeks. He held up the spoon. Do you want some? He asked, looking at Vanilla.

Villina smiled, committing the names to memory. Now... how would her last name sound on the end... Haley Amanda Song... not bad, Mason Joseph Song, it sure isn't manily, but if I get married, he could take my husband's last name... I suppose. If I ever get married.... she thought. She shook her head, "No thanks, I'm full." she said, one of the cooks came and took her plate, naturally she said thank you, and turned back to Haley and Mason. "Alright, well, I'm going to go talk to someone and I'll be back." she said and stood, she walked over to the lady in charge. "I've made a decision." she said. The lady grinned, "Good, now, I'll get you the paperwork." the lady said and ran and got a large stack of papers, Villina sat at a desk in the front and went to work, filling out all the information. She finished and handed it to the lady, who took it and read it. The lady picked up a microphone. "Could Mason and Haley please come to the office." she said over the intercom.

Mason ~
He finished off his icecream and wiped his face. He looked at Haley and took her hand as they walked slowly to the office. Mason smiled at his sister and stayed close to Haley. He stood in the office, peering up from the huge wooden desk that the woman sat behind. Yes ma'am? Haley said the same thing. They both looked at each other then at Vanilla.

"Go pack your things, your going home." the woman said, she motioned behind her and Villina stepped out from her, giving them a nervous smiled. "If that's what you want." Villina added, glancing over at the woman, the woman smiled, "Why don't you go with them Ms. Song." the woman said. Villina nodded, "Okay." she said and turned back to Haley and Mason, giving them another smile, she still wanted to hear their answers before she did anything. The last thing she wanted to do was do something they didn't want, especially take them home if they weren't comfortable with her.

Haley ~
M-Mason... At first her voice sounded sad and lost but she turned her expression totally different. We're going home! She said excitedly and they hugged. Mason and Haley took Vanilla's hands and led her down to their rooms and began to pack their things. Showing her everything and giving comments every now and then. In less than 10 minutes Haley and Mason had their jackets on and were ready to go. They had their bookbags resting on their backs, filled with their things, they smiled.

Villina held her breath at Haley's first word, but then grinned as she said "We're going home!" and let them lead her down the hall to get their things, she helped them pack, thinking about all the empty room in her house that they could have, she would take them shopping before she took them home, let them get whatever they wanted. Also order the swing set and a bunch of toys. When she got home with them, she would let them order furniture for their rooms and pictures and then she would let them have a look around the ranch.

Mason & Haley ~
They said their goodbyes and got their hugs from everyone. The caretaker looked at them with a smile, tears streaming from her eyes. She hugged them tightly, making sure they knew she would miss them. Mason and Haley smile and said goodbye to her aswell, walking out to Vanilla's car. They looked up at the door and noticed there were carseats in the back that fit them perfectly. Wow. Mason and Haley couldn't wait to see their new home.

"You guys wanna go shopping?" Villina asked, letting them in the backseat of her truck. She hoped they would say yes and as she watched them buckle up, she got into the driver's seat and started the engine. She looked back at them, making sure they were secure, so they wouldn't go flying if they crashed.

Haley ~
Sure. She said nervously but cheery. She didn't know what shopping meant but she knew that pretty soon she would find out what it was. She smiled and looked out the window, watching all the beautiful lands she had never seen before go by. She smiled again and talked to Mason.

Villina smiled, "Alrighty." she said and turned on the radio, they drove down the road and soon they go to the mall. She turned off the engine and helped them out. "This is the mall, it has stores with stuff you can buy. When we're there, you can buy anything you want and we can look in all of the stores." she said and lead them inside.

Haley ~
Okay, C'mon Mason. She said holding his hand and holding Vanilla's hand. She was taught to always hold an adult's hand when walking across a parking lot. She smiled as the automatic doors opened up and the AC rushed out. She looked at all the beautiful clothes and the beautiful people that were walking around. She saw a kid store that had beautiful clothes. She pointed there.

Villina watched her point and nodded, "Alright, let's go." she said and took them outside, she watched them pick out clothes and had them try some on, she made sure it was all what they wanted, but she didn't exactly want to spoil them, so she made sure not to just let them get stuff because they could, not that they did.
