This story seems a bit cluttered to me. I mean that you needed a bit more space.
Deelish wrote: Madam Matilda's Orphanage. Cold-hearted Madam Matilda would always remind Tally of the freezing winter night when she was left at the front door of the orphanage.
It was the year of 1975, and young Tally was marveling at the most powerful snow storm in 10 years which was taking place right outside in Times Square. Tally shivered in her thin working apron as she continued to watch the snow storm with anticipation.

This part just seems a bit fast. Slow down and explain please!! Lastly the title: Is there a fall, winter ,and summer?
Slow down and keep on writing!!!

I completely agree with Megsug. The time line is very conflicting. I need it to be clearer than what it is. It just confused me even more.

Welcome to YWS, Deelish.
I liked this. The problem is that there is a bit of a time conflict. You say it is 1975 but with the thin, work apron and the whole orphanage set up it sounds less modern and more 1800's-ish. Foster care and evil foster parents might work better instead of an orphanage though I'm not an expert on that kind of thing. Or you might want to back the time period up, either one.
The main character was kind of woe is me the whole time. The orphanage keeper is mean, the other girl is mean, she cannot catch a break. That's fine. Black and white is ok for a story but I think you would add more depth to you characters by adding in a friend or a fortunate even excluding meeting up with her mother.
One last thing. The dialouge was a little wooden. I have a problem with it too. It is not a big deal but if you write what you would say at that moment it would sound natural and more pleasing.
Okay. There's my review. I hope you get something from it and have a good time at YWS. If you need a review just PM me.
