She's My Sleeping Pill

**

To thank them for bringing her to a horror house which she really enjoyed, Cayenne brought her friends to the closest clothing store and bought them a change of clothes. After that, they went to have some sweets at Dale’s café before finally making their way to her house.

“I forgot to bring these earlier.” Cayenne expressed while handing them a gift bag. “I got them from my last trip.”

“Wow! Really?! Thank you, Yen.” Faith even hugged her to express her gratitude. “I must have saved the world in my last life to be able to meet you in this life.”

“What about me? What did you save in your last life to meet me in this life?” Noah susses out with scrutinizing gaze.

“The universe.”

.....

Cayenne couldn’t help but laugh at them while shaking her head. There was never a day that the two of them won’t bicker as far as she knew.

“Martin, can you bring the package here in the living room? I will sort them out with my friends.”

“Is it the one that arrived this morning?”

“Did we receive something else?”

“Yes, Ms. Yen. Another package came this afternoon according to James.”

“I’ll ask Stefan if he ordered anything online. Anyway, just get the one that we received this morning.”

“Yes, ma’am.”

Martin left immediately and called his colleagues for help since several packages arrived early in the morning. Cayenne also called Stefan to inquire about the other package that came because she didn’t want to open anything which wasn’t hers.

“That must be the package that Monet sent. I don’t know what are the contents but she said that you can use them to raise funds.” Stefan stated when his wife asked about the package. “She also said that you can call her once you check the content and ask anything if you have questions.”

“Okay. I’ll check it later.”

“Also, she sent us an email about the photoshoot. Let’s talk about it tonight after dinner.”

“Got it.”

When the call ended, Cayenne returned to the living room and found the huge boxes there. Martin was already opening them with a sharp cutter while Noah and Faith chatted.

“Ms. Yen, do you need help with those?” Daisy asked the moment she came inside from her school as well.

“There’s no need. I have friends who can help me. Just help your mom with our dinner. Where’s Dalia? Didn’t you come home with her?”

“My sister’s class needed to perform something to get their clearance signed. We informed sir Kyle about it since he usually comes home late because of some school matters. He said he’d come and pick her up on his way home.”

“That’s good to know. Go and change your clothes.”

“Yes, Ms. Yen.” Daisy left to change her clothes and help her mother in the kitchen.

Cayenne cares for their helpers and their bodyguards so it was no longer new to Faith and Noah since they have visited her home several times already.

“How are we going to sort them?” Noah asked when he saw the content of the boxes.

“Let’s separate all the clothes and toys. The toys will be divided between boys and girls, and the same goes for the clothes.”

“Are you going to give this to the foundations that we visited last time?”

“No. I will be giving these to another orphanage. The orphanage isn’t huge and was supported by the local households only. I just heard of this orphanage from one of my fans who left a comment in my recent vlog.”

“Aren’t these things expensive? You could have gotten more if you bought these things here.” Faith commented while looking at the items in her hands. “Besides, orphans wouldn’t really mind if you give them expensive or cheap things. To them, everything is the same.”

“Actually, these things aren’t really expensive. Though I understand your point that we could give them more, but I was thinking about the quality of the things that I could give them. I wanted something that would last long since I wouldn’t be able to give them something all the time.”

“Well, that’s also true.” Faith agreed unhesitant to her words. “Then, when do you plan to give these things? I have a little sister at home and she has a lot of things that she didn’t need anymore. We’ll do some decluttering and bring the ones that won’t be needed to the orphanage.”

“That’s a nice idea. Shall we tell our classmates who have siblings, too?” Noah added which brought a new idea to Cayenne’s mind. Instead of doing it on her own, why not ask her classmates to do the same and join her to do this? In that way, many people could help and many people will be helped.

“Let’s discuss it with them later in our group chat.”

The three of them continued sorting out the items while chatting about the orphanage that Cayenne discovered through a fan. She told them about the situation, the location, and how the locals tried to help this orphanage for the children to survive day by day.

Unlike orphanages that can be found in the city with many donations, this orphanage was found in a mountain area. At first, a couple picked up a child on the road and brought the child home. They even posted it online but no one responded to claim the baby. Of course, no stupid person would do that after throwing their child. They’d be sued for abandonment.

The department of children’s welfare responded to this post at that time and helped the child find a foster parent. Later on, this incident happened again and the same department helped. Time after time, this incident kept happening for a few months of interval and soon, the department of children’s welfare was beginning to suspect the nearby village that it was their own children that they neglected. Being a poor countryside village, they didn’t want the hassle of being under the limelight with many people beginning to judge them. In the end, they took the responsibility for these abandoned children and made a small home for them. If these villagers knew something about the law, they could have filed a case against the government agency. Unfortunately, they weren’t that knowledgeable about the laws governing their country.

Since this became part of their daily life, they no longer mind it.
