Blind sided

My name is melinda Roberts, the history behind the name Robert's it's my foster dad's, mr Robertson and Mom Naomi took me in ,adopted, I mean when I was 11 years old . I wasn't born the prettiest girl ,and I guess that's the reason to why I hardly had any friends since primary school, I mean I wasnt the ugliest in the bunch but in this generation it's either people go for looks or for the money .its either of the two. I never knew my parents, well because I grew up in an orphanage. St Margaret's had to feel like home or atleast it was supposed to but it didnt ,to begin with the rude treatment from the matrons and patrons. without forgetting the bullies ,like big Billy and his so called crew ,to sum up what I'm trying to say is life has always been tough . Then I got a breakthrough or so i thought ,i remember i just got out of class, I was in grade 6,and I was 11 at the time, the head master summoned me to his office and gave me the "good" news ,they had gotten me foster parents, a family at last and I was overjoyed ,I had always dreamt of having a family ,someone to call dad and mom and the dream was finally becoming a reality .And there I was thinking that I had won in life.
