It didn't take long for kids to sense weakness in Mei. She'd been at this place for less than a week, trying to keep to herself. But there were too many kids to have her own room, and the house was always noisy and cluttered. There was also no accommodating her, there were too many children to worry about to give her any specialized attention. They bathed, clothed and fed the kids like clockwork, and Mei was dissociating her way through a lot of it. The other kids had begun to notice her more. When they would talk to her, she would just stare at them, or do a small gesture: A nod, shrug or a shake of the head. She did have a little notebook, she used to to communicate with the adults. The one place that she could be in solitude she'd found in the house was in a little fenced in courtyard around the side. She's sit on the edge of the courtyard and watched the birds in the trees. She was there today. She had to pick her moments, like while the other kids were eating or playing inside. Today she had been the first out after eating, having wolfed down her food.
Mei sat at the end of the courtyard digging at the dirt absent-mindedly with a stick. She didn't see much hope in being adopted. All the adults in her life had made it quite clear to her what a burden she was. Breaking her train of thought came the feeling of a small pebble hitting her on the shoulder. Alarmed, Li Mei stood, looking around. A group of some of the bigger children were approaching, One of them, a boy she knew was called Jack, was at the front of the pack "What's wrong ching chong?" he called as he came nearer. Mei's heart started beating faster. In her mind she was trying to find an escape rout. But there were three of them, and her back was to a fence. "Why don't you say something, huh? Go on" He mockingly turned his head to the side and cupped his ear.
Li Mei glowered at the boy. She couldn’t find her words, threre was no way to run. All she had left was to fight. Mei’s little heads were shaking so she clenched them into fists. Instead of staying where she was she too a step forward. The boys just laughed at her, one of them shoved her hard and she stumbled and fell “What is wrong with her?” One of them asked,”How come she never says anything”
they were talking about her now “She’s Chinese or something, she probably doesn’t understand” They looked at her again. They turned to her “or she’s just an idiot.” Mei got up off the ground and tried to shove the boy back. He got caught of guard but quickly regained his balance and pushed her again. Down she went, into the grass “You can do all our chores for us Ching Chong or you’ll get worse than that!”
