hey, I'm new on here and this is my first story any views and thoughts would be appreciated :)
It was the start of the summer holidays. Sam turned back to smile at Tom, before looking up at the place before them it was clearly labeled 'Greenwood Social Services' it was a tall building covered in ivy which looked like something out of a story that Sam would have read as a child. Sam didn't like how it was labeled but ignored it and thought back to moments that had led to this. She turned to Tom.
"I can't believe we are actually here, I can't wait to get the girls. Think how this was all because of Maya." Tom nodded and thought before replying.
"Yes, if she hadn't of been to the hospital and been adopted then you wouldn't have decided that you wanted adopt and we wouldn't be about to pick up Jess and Izzy."
Sam and Tom caught each other's eyes with a smile. Despite the fact that Sam would be adopting 12 year old identical twin girls she felt a urge of excitement.
"I hope they like there rooms" Tom spoke to Sam thinking back to how crazy they had gone giving the girls rooms which they hoped they would love.
Sam knew that she already had a great bond with girls and that after the three weeks they had known each other, she knew that Jess was a person who would tell you everything and was confident and trustworthy and she knew that Izzy was awkward in one to one conversations and would be to scared to talk to you about things however she was very clever and great once you knew her.
"You can tell them apart right?" Tom asked making Sam laugh as she knew he still struggled. To be fair they were exactly identical and she had seen that even the workers there still got them mixed up. The only obvious difference was there style but Jess's eyes were slightly browner but you would have to look closely to see that.
Sam put her hand up to knock on the door but before she hit the door it opened for them to be greeted by a familiar over friendly lady which Sam personally hated. Sam though, following Toms advice was ignoring her hatred and focusing on the girls. she looked past the lady to see Jess and Izzy stood smiling at her. They looked stunning stood there and also completely identical. Though Sam wouldn't admit it she had to think for a second to realise that Jess was to her left and izzy to her right.
"Sam!" The girls yelled in sync before running up and hugging her. That was another thing, the girls had a great relationship and often said the same thing at the same time or finish each other's sentences. It was like a party trick they did. She hugged them before looking to see the amount of stuff they had. Sam knew herself though that being a girl meant that it was all probably necessary.
The girls went with Tom to put there stuff in the car as Sam went to talk to the 'annoying' Lady.
"Ok thank you for adopting them, it was the quickest adoption we have seen, as you know they have only been here for 2 months" the lady who happened to be called Lucy said.
"Yes" Sam simply replied.
"Ok so as you know the girls family was branded as unsafe as there mother was proven unfit for being a mother when multiple drugs were found. We think that although it would have been tough for the girls, there background should not have much affect on them. Though they are not used to having someone there for them." Lucy said annoying Sam as she had told her this multiple times.
"Yes, I have noticed" Sam stated trying not to sound too impolite. Luckily though Lucy did not notice this and continued talking about paperwork.
After 10 minutes and Sam having signed many forms the girls and Tom and Sam were in the car waving goodbye to Lucy. They began the hour drive to HOLBY.
more soon, just trying to set the scene
