The Day Dumb Luck StruckUpdated at Jun 16, 2024, 15:19
Pumpkin daydreams about running away from every foster home she's been to over the years. She is taken to her new home after a fall out with her last foster family, which severs her connection to her five younger siblings. Worried about the mental and physical abuse that may come to them now that she's not there to protect them, she begs her social worker to take her to a home where she can be close to her sisters and brothers. The town she lives in is very small. With only one for four- way- so in the center of town, she doesn't expect her caseworker to find a family in the same town but when she does, it's a miracle. The new foster family is unlike any other family she ever lived with. They are kind and likable. Allowing her to be a kid for the first time in her life. They've even signed her up to start driving lessons, letting her drive whenever they go on long trips.

Despite all of the new positives in her life and the new support she now has from her family, Pumpkin feels a small pang of disloyalty towards her biological mother as her sixteenth birthday draws nearer. She is suddenly presented with an opportunity and is left with the hard choice of keeping a promise she made years ago or allowing herself to be happy in the home she finally has. her life and the new support she now has from her family, Pumpkin feels a small pang of disloyalty towards her biological mother as her sixteenth birthday draws nearer.
