NOTE: This is my first chapter of my first story. Also, English is not my mother tongue.The events occur after ''The Last Olympian''.
My name is Terpsichore,Tess for short. I don't know who my parents are – I was left in front of an orphanage when I was a baby. Through the years I have had lots of adopters. Some were normal, others not so much but everytime I started getting used to a family something always happened. For 15 years 6 fires,3 floods and 7 earthquakes cause damages to the places where I was staying. I started to think that I was cursed not only with my difficult-to-pronounce name. The only thing I had from my bith mother was I neckace with a silver deer.
When I was almost 16 , a kind family adopted me. They were polite and good-mannered couple who couldn't have children because of an illness the woman had experienced. In their home I felt comfortable but everyday I wondered when an accident would happen I would be forced to leave this generous family.
Luckily, for 5 months nothing unusual happened. When I went to school everyone started to ask where I was from because my hair color was auburn and was very unusual for this region. What is more, my adoptive mother had light brown hair, almost blond and my adoptive father had dark brown hair. Also, their eyes were brown and mine are light blue and their skin color was dark and mine was as pale as the snow.
Soon I told my classmates that I was adopted but they took for normal. I became a cheerleader as this had always been my dream. As a cheerleader I made friends very fast . For the first time in my life I was happy. Before I couldn't sleep well in the night but now I didn't sleep at all and surpisingly I wasn't tired at all.
Everything was perfect.
NOTE:This is just the Exposition.The real story's going to start in the next chapter.
