I looked at all the tiny houses along the road. This was a beautiful place. This was a place were fairytales could happen. But more than that it was a place were you could forget yourself and that was the only thing I wanted. To be able to forget, to start all over, I was about to meet my new family for the first time. Yeah, I was about to meet my new family. I let out a heavy sigh.
I was surprised how fast the adopion was. One month afterr my parents had died and I was here, in a car to meet the people who were supposed to be my family.
In my new family were mr. Delomen Sunel, 47 years old, his wife Mheome and their two children, Emily and Daniel. Emely had her own place, but she lived just a few house down the block from her parents house with her husband, Sam. Daniel still lived with his parents and he was a year older. I am sixteen.
They all lived in a small reservation Quileute indians near the town Forks. The place was called La Push.
"We're here miss. Katrina." The car stopped infront of a small brown house. The lady who drove me there was from the adopion agency and she had been very nice to me. "Well, shall we go?" She said and steped out of the car.
I took my bag out of the car. I felt very strange, it was not everyday that you knocked on some stranges door and moved in to their house as their new daugther. I had ofcourse met Mheome and her husband, but it was still very strange. Before we got to the door, it was opened and mrs. Sunel greeted us.
"It's good your finally here dear Katrina." She hugged me and invited to take my bag. "No, it's fine mrs. Sunel." I said and blushed. It was incredible akward.
"Oh, dear child do not call me mrs. Sunel." She said kindly and took my bag even after I said to her that she didn't need to.
I could only imaginate that she would love to hear me call her mom. But I was just not ready for that yet. Maybe one day I would be able to look at her diffrently then a kind lady who was so unlucky to be stuck with me from now on.
The lady from the adopion agency felt it was almost as akward as I thought it was, so she came over to me ang hugged me and whised me all the best in life, then she walked over to mrs. Sunel and gave her one piece of paper. Then she was gone.
"Come on in sweety, I'll show you your new room so you can put away your things." She walked into the small house and I looked around and saw this welcoming kitchen and livingroon. This was so comforting place and mrs. Sunel was one of the most loveliest person in the world that I've ever met.
My room was not big, but I hadn't expected that after seeing the size of the rest of the house. There was one big window and next to it was a table and a chair. There was also a bookoshelve with few books and to the wall on the left was the bed and to the wall on the right there was the closet.
"It's not that big, but I hope you like it sweety." She smiled apologizing. "Just come down after you've finished unpacking. Diner is around 6 p.m." She stopped and smiled happily. "We didn't know ofcourse what your favorite food is, but I hope you like the pot roast I'm making. And also my daugther, Emily is going to bring over a desert, she a very good baker." She smiled again and walked quietly out. I walked to the bed and sat down. I was not sure if I would be able to go through a whole meal with a happy family, I already felt bad over being here.
