The sun creeped through the window like an animal stalking it's prey. Josie pulled the covers over her head trying to catch a few more minutes of sleep that's when her little brother Jake came in and jumped on her. "Go away", Josie yelled at him. "Wake up Josiegirl" her mom said pulling the little monster off of his big sister. The night before Josie and her friend Izzy went to Wrestlemania. Izzy was up and gone she told Josie's mom that she tried to wake her but Josie wouldn't budge. Josie slowly pulled the covers off her head and glanced at the clock. "Shit", "Josie!!,watch your mouth little ears" Her mom scolded. "Sorry I'm late for class" Josie said running to the bathroom.
She met up with Izzy "What the hell your late" Izzy said grabbing Josie's arm and pullung her. "Sorry,I was dreaming again, it was weird." Josie said. "Lemme guess JEFF?" Izzy said laughing. "NO,it was about someone else, I don't know who it was it was a man. He was telling me that I was his daughter and that he was in the Viatnam war. I have a strange feeling about the dream,I can't explain it." Josie explained. "Hmm, that's weird" Izzy said. "Uhem, ladies, can we finish reading?" Professor Tambor said. "Sorry sir" The girls said in unison.Josie and Izzy took notes and tried not to interupt class. "I'm so excited", Izzy whispered. "I know, me too but if you don't be quiet we are gonna get kicked out". Josie said. "Ladies?" Professor Tambor said. "Izabella lost her page I was helping her find it" Josie quickly covered. "Ok but try to be a little quieter" He said. "Yes sir." Izzy said rolling her eyes. After class the girls left for Josie's house. "I can't wait" Izzy said for the 1,000th time today. "I know,I know you keep saying that, I'm excited too." Josie said. Your probly wandering why they are so excited.They finally saved up enough money to go to Omega, it's a training facility in North Carolina. Their first day is 2 weeks from Saturday.
"So what about that dream you had?" Izzy asked Josie who was sitting on her bed. "I don't know it was weird the guy who said he was my dad looked like John Lennon." Josie said. "What?" Izzy said with a mouth full of cookie. "Yea I know weird. I'm not adopted, I've seen my birth certificate, and I mean why would they still be lying to me? I'm a grown woman I deserve to know the truth." Josie said. "Yea, POWER TO THE PEOPLE" Izzy said laughing. "Izz this isn't funny" Josie said with her hands on her hips. "Do you think I should ask them? Ya know just to be sure?" Josie asked Izzy. "It wouldn't hurt." Izzy said.
Josie walked into the kitchen,"Mom,Dad?" Josie said. "Yea, hun, what's up?" Her mom said. "Um...Nevermind." Josie said walking out. "What are you doing" Izzy said as Josie walked into the living room. "Get your butt in there and ask" Izzy said pushing Josie into the kitchen. "Mom, I need to ask you something and it's really important." Her mom was doing the dishes. She said, "Ok, what is it?"
"Uh, um, well, Ok, I had a dream last night and there was a guy who was saying that I was adopted and he looked like John Lennon but that's not the point the point is," Josie took a deep breath and continued. "Am I adopted?" There was a long pause and then her father said "NO, of course not" Then her mother interupted and said "YES", "What?" Josie said not expecting the answer she got. "Yes you are adopted, but we don't know your birth parents" Her mom said. "Please explain." Josie said. "Well your father and I were in New York and we were in Strawberry Fields,cuz ya know your dad is a huge beatles fan, we were walking and it was so pretty, fall in New York, there's nothing like it. All the leaves it was breathtaking." "Mom" Josie said,"Get to the point please" "Sorry hun, we went to the Imagine circle,and there was a box in the middle of it we didn't think anything of it at the time that was until we heard you crying, we found a letter from your birth mother" She got up looking through some things, "here it is" She handed a note to Josie, this is the note we found.
To whomever finds this child,please take care of her. Please let her know 'All you need is love'. That is all I ever wanted to teach my children. I can't take care of her,I'm ill. Please be kind to this child and give her a nice home. If she ever wants to know about me or her father please tell her to go to The Dakota in New York and go to room #709. The person who lives there will explain everything to her. Please tell her I am not giving her up because I don't love her or don't want her. I'm just too sick. I put her in the Imagine circle because I knew John would taker good care of her. Thank you kind person, please keep my baby safe.
"I'm going to New York." Josie said.
