Temporary Home
Callie's POV
Callie couldn't believe she was starting another foster home. Oh well it can't be worse than the last, she thought to herself as she turned and gave her brother a small smile and took his in hers as they made their way up the rickety steps each carrying old, faded, and falling apart back packs in their free hands, with their social worker Bill following their trail into the newest foster house.
Jude's POV
Little boy, six years old
A little too used to bein' alone
Another new mom and dad, another school
Another house that'll never be home
Well Bill tells us that we will be staying with the Sullivan's this time around.
After being here for a month and a half, Bill comes by for another visit and as always he has to speak with each Foster kid alone. There are a lot of foster kids here and he goes from oldest to youngest, most of the time I am last or second to last while Callie is close to first. When he finally gets to me he asks me how I like living here.
When people ask him how he likes this place
He looks up and says with a smile upon his face
"This is my temporary home
It's not where I belong
Windows in rooms that I'm passin' through
This is just a stop, on the way to where I'm going
I'm not afraid because I know this is my
Temporary home."
Ana's POV (Has this ever been done?)
Young mom on her own
She needs a little help got nowhere to go
She's lookin' for a job, lookin' for a way out
'Cause a half-way house will never be a home
Mariana looks up at me with her cute little 5 year old eyes at the shelter one night, and asks when we will have a permanent place to stay. I know the answer to her question is not within my knowledge yet but still I answer her.
At night she whispers to her baby girl
Someday we'll find a place here in this world
"This is our temporary home
It's not where we belong
Windows in rooms that we're passin' through
This is just a stop, on the way to where we're going
I'm not afraid because I know this is our
Temporary Home."
20 years into the future.
Callie's POV
I make it to the hospital and I see Jude first. I run to him and let the tears roll down my already tear stained one. After a few minutes I look up and see the rest of my beloved family there. Stef and Lena, Brandon, my husband and my kids, Mariana, Connor and their (Jude's and Connor's adopted) kids, were all there for Jude and me. After hugging them all I enter Donald's room.
Old man, hospital bed
The room is filled with people he loves.
I ask him why he had to leave me not expecting an answer but getting one anyway. He told me he was not mean to live forever and he always knew he would have to go at some point after all this isn't his forever home.
And he whispers don't cry for me
I'll see you all someday
He looks up and says "I can see God's face"
"This is my temporary Home
It's not where I belong
Windows in rooms that I'm passin' through
This was just a stop, on the way to where I'm going
I'm not afraid because I know this was
My temporary home."
Stef's POV
Imagine that I outlived Lena; I know I never thought it would happen. What, with her constant eating healthy I thought for sure she would outlive her kids, but no it didn't happen. At the harsh age of 82 she passed away, peacefully I might add.
I think back on the few days before her death, she was released back to me to come home. Three days she was peaceful, then one day I came downstairs and couldn't find her so went out into the back yard. There she was leaning against Frankie's tree whispering, when I got close enough I heard her say she was coming to be with her soon.
As soon as I heard her say this I threw myself down next to and told her to tell me why she said that. She told me she said it because no one can live here long enough and she knew she was fixing to die. And after she told me this she died in my arms. Her last words being…
This is our temporary home
Right before I slipped away with her!
