Zechariah expected her to react that way. Still, this sort of hurt his feelings, even if it did not show. "Kellin..." He placed the papers down and looked completely at her, this time. "If I did not care, I would not be here as a volunteer. I, too, was raised in an orphange, and I've seen others like me not be adopted. We were all we had over there, we stuck together, even when we fought each other. Besides, this is not a one-meeting process.

Nobody is going to see it but me."
