New Beginnings

Chapter One: The beginning

Today, August 9th, is my 13th birthday. Yea, I’m not to hyped about it cause it’s a norm day and another year that has just passed without being placed in a foster home or being adopted by a family. Another year being stuck here in Safe Havens orphanage and seeing other kids being placed in foster care and others being adopted by a nice family. I just wish I was one of the kids that would either be in foster care or be adopted.

I started my day just like a typical day, doing chores which I hate I would rather have my teeth pulled than doing any chores. I have received a couple happy birthdays from the kids that are stuck here just like me. As I go about doing my chores so I just get them out of the way so I can go outside to sit under my favorite ash tree and bury my nose in my all-time faves book, where the heroine comes and sweeps up a poor defenseless woman from a possessed and rabid dragon.

“Yea it's a fantasy book but at least the lady gets her happy ending in the end so not like me. I wish I get my happy ending where I can fit in.”
