Chapter 1

My life sucks! One day I'm at home with my mom then next day I'm in foster care. How does that happen? I'll tell you how, it would be the work of incompetent doctors saying that they know that you have kidney stones. Turns out that you have cancer. That's how I went from having a mom and siblings to being and orpan in foster care. If you haven't noticed I really don't like doctors. There supposed to help, but half of the time they cause more problems then help. I'm 17, a senior in high school and I don't even have a license. It sounds glamourous doesn't it. Tommarow I have to be evaluated to see if I'm stable enough to be adopted. Are you kidding me? Really? My foster mother Mrs. Peak is a very nice lady she tries to help when she can. I will never say that to her face though I have to keep up my I don' t care attitude. "Annie!" I heard Mrs. Peak yell up the stairs. "Ma'am!"

"Come down stairs now!"

"Coming!" I shout as I get off of my bed and head downstairs. I wonder what she wants. I thought to myself. "Mrs. Peak?" I called when I got to the bottom of the stairs.

"In the living room." she answered. So I headed in that direction. when I reached the doorway I paused. There was an extremely beautiful couple sitting on the couch. The man had black hair, gold eyes, and the features of a person with a hispanic background. The woman had long brown hair and the same gold eyes as the man. They both had on very expensive clothing. "Ahh, Annie there you are. Come in and sit down." Mrs. Peak said nervously. I walked to the couch and sat by Mrs. peak. "Annie these are the Denali's, they want to adopted you."

"Why?" I asked confused.

"We want to adopt you because your a beautiful young lady." said Mr. Denali.

"You know that, that doesn't help your case with me it just make you sounds like a creep." I said while looking at him like he's crazy.

"Mi Querida let me help. We have two girls who both want a younger sister and me and my husband both think that you are perfect." said Mrs. Denali with a smile. I just stared at her trying to tell if she was lying, so I did the next best thing. "I'm gay." I blurted out trying to see if I could get a reaction out of them. "That's nice mi querida but, was there a peticular reason that you decided to blurted that out right now?" asked Mrs. Denali."I don't know."I answered. "Well did we pass your test?" asked Mr. Denali.

"Yes for now."

"Annie I called your down here to tell your that they wanted to adopt your and to also tell you to go pack." said Mrs. Peak.

"What! What about school?"I shouted.

"You will go to school in alaska." said Mrs. Peak.

"Alaska! Like one of the coldest states in the U.S.A. that Alaska?" I shouted as I jumped up off the couch.

"Yes, is there a problem?" asked Mrs. Peak with a look that I have never seen on her face before, it was scary. "Um, no ma'am." I said quietly.

"Good now go upstairs and pack." Mrs. Peak said.

"Yes ma'am." I said as I left the living room and ran upstairs. When I got to my room I slamed the door, fell on my bed and screamed into my pillow. I really underestimated Mrs. Peak she is nice when it suits her purpose. " At least of get to get out of here." I said aloud. I better start packing I thought. As I slid off my bed. As soon as my feet hit the floor someone nocked on my door. "Come in." I called as I walled towared the closet. "Do you need any help packing? asked Mrs. Denali.

"Sure I can use all the help that I can get." I replied. "I am really sorry about my behavior earlier."

"It's ok mi querida."

"Mrs. Denali, what are your girls like?" I asked as I pulled my suitcases from under my bed. "Call me Carmen mi querida, and my girls are very mature, talented and easygoing . You really have to meet them to see what I'm talking about. So what do you want me to do clothes, books, or your other things?"

"How about books. How much can I bring with me?" I asked as I headed towared my dresser and started pulling out my clothes and putting them in one of my suitcases. " You can bring as much as you want to bring, it's going to be your house to but, the girls are going to want to take you shopping when I bring you home."

"Really! Like going to the mall shopping, with money? Not window shopping?"I asked as I was bouncing excitedly. "Yes, me and my husband will give you a certain amount of money to buy what you want."Carmen answered. "Thank you! So much, this means the world to me!" I say as I hug her.I go back to packing my clothes it's not really a lot so I finished very quickly." I'm done packing." I said as I put my suitcases by the door. "Good lets take these out to the car and be on our way."Carman said. We both grabed a handle, of a rolling suitcase, and a bag. Then we headed downstairs. When Mr. Denali saw use he quickly said good bye to Mrs. Peak. He then put the bags in the car and we were on our way.
