Dick and I were watching our parents do their trapeze act without a net when the cord snapped. The only thing I could see was Dick standing in front of me and facing me. I could hear the screams of the crowds. Suddenly I felt someone grab my hand and drag me out of the circus, I didn't have enough time to see who grabbed my hand until we were outside and I saw Dickie. He looked like he was about to cry.
"Dick de ce trist? (Dick why you sad)" I asked "Nu sunt trist, Dani. sunt bine (I'm not sad, Dani. I'm just fine)" he responded a little shaky.
Dick and I were outside for about ten minutes when a man walked up to us, and Dick, being the protective brother he is, pushed me behind him.
"Why are you two out here by yourselves," he asked walking closer.
Dick covered my ears. I noticed he was starting to talking to the man but I could barely hear what Dick was saying.
"Our... just... off..." was all I could hear he say to the man
He uncovers my ears and the man looked sad. He turned and looked at me as he walked closer and crouched down in front of me.
"How old are you?" He asked.
I looked up at Dick and he nodded
"cinci sunt ceea ce numele tău?" I asked.
The man looked at me confused and looked at Dickie.
"Can you speak English?" He asked still looking at Dick. He nodded. "Can you translate what she said for me please?"
"She said I'm five and what's your name?" He translated.
"My name is Bruce. Do you have anywhere to stay?" He asked.
"No," Dick replied, "oh and my name is Richard but call me Dick and this my little sister Danielle but you can call her Dani."
"Well, Dick do you and Dani want to come live with me?" He asked.
Dick looked at me and I quickly nodded. He smiled "yes, we would thank you, Mr. Wayne." He said.
"Ok, wait here, I'll be right back. I'm going to get Alfred," Bruce said, "then we can go talk to Mr. Haly, ok?"
"Ok, we'll wait here for you," Dick said.
Bruce walked back into the tent. 'Who is Alfred' I thought. I turned and hugged Dick.
About 5 minutes late I saw Bruce walk out of the tent with another man behind him. I hugged Dick tighter.
"Richard, Danielle this is my butler Alfred" Bruce introduced us.
Alfred kind of scares me, he's really tall compared to me. After Bruce introduced us, Dickie and I led them to where the acts get ready. Dickie took Bruce to talk to Mr. Haly and left me with Alfred. I felt a little uncomfortable being around him since I couldn't speak English, I couldn't really talk to him.
"în cazul în care este Dick? (where is Dick)" I said aloud to myself.
Alfred look at me "what did you say?" He asked. I tried my hardest to translate to what I said into English "w-w-wh-wh-where... i-i-is...D-D-Di-Di-Dick" I stuttered.
