Sami wasn’t an eavesdropper. He was an honest person, and had spent each of his sixteen years treating others with the same kindness that his parents had taught him. But when he heard whispers during dinnertime, his ears pricked up and the muscles in his arms tightened.

Sami had lost something too, something precious that he’d dreamed of every single night since Monsieur Xavier had stolen his belongings when he’d arrived. Sami needed it back; it was the only reminder he had of his father, and he was sure that it was in Monsieur Xavier’s office.

He knew every boy in the orphanage had their own desires and secrets, but Sami could no longer live like this. His mother and sister were still at home in Morocco, and each day was time he would never get back with them. A rare smile flashed across his face as he thought of home, the warm sand between his toes and the waves of the Atlantic Ocean. It was as quick as a blink, then he turned back to his dinner, forcing the last spoonful of mince down.

Bastien and Theo were going to help him escape, whether they liked it or not. Tonight, Sami was taking back what was his and escaping the orphanage for good.
