Muñeca here, hope you enjoy the story, please don't be too harsh in critique, this is all just for fun(:
I have a few ideas on where this story will go, but for now here is the first chapter hope y'all like it
If I had to guess, this would be Mr. Taisho's fourth time asking me to stay behind in about two weeks. He always asks if I'm doing alright, if he needs to assign me a tutor since I haven't turned anything in. Asks me how home is, how I've been adjusting. He's always so harsh and scary during class, but when he takes the time to check on me, feels like a fatherly figure. Not that I've had one to compare him to. I've been in foster homes most of my childhood, recently a few years ago I was placed in a group home, and one of the new social workers was interested in my mother's past. Seems like I wasn't the only baby she abandoned, 18 years earlier, she left her 15 year old son with her newborn daughter. I had hoped that I could at least meet my older siblings, we didn't have the same father, but we came from the same deadbeat woman.
I never thought the state would actually give my 18 year old sister guardianship, not in my wildest dreams.

flashback
Mrs. Ryu was so kind and thoughtful, I trusted her and her advice. I would not let this one visit get my hopes up of leaving the system. My sister, Kagome, she was about to turn 19 and although she's young I have dreams of her taking me away from this hell. I've never felt like I belonged anywhere, too much moving around and never settling down, I have no roots, no place that's home. Friends come and go and honesty, the concept of a family seems really interesting, people you get to have in your life because you're related? I've always wanted a sibling, younger or older it didn't matter. So hearing about the news of me having not just one, but two older siblings somewhere out there, I had to at least meet them. I'm a 10 year old who's never had anything of course I want someone out there to call my own, to call my family.
"Rin, are you okay to go through with this?" Mrs. Ryu seemed concerned as she looked at me, sitting passenger side, we must have just parked, or maybe we'd been sitting there for a while and that's why she's looking at me like that?
"Yeah, sorry just sort of spaced, I am more than ready to go." I look at her and smile, she raised her brow at me, still questioning me, I just nod my head at my case worker.
We get out of the car, as I shut the door and looked up at the building we parked at, that's when it really hits me that I'm not completely alone anymore, I have a sister and a brother. And this huge brick building was where they lived.
As I approach the door, it swings open, a beautiful woman stands there, she's pretty short, but she has long hair and pretty eyes that I can't help but envy, they're a deep blue and mine are almost black, her hair is wavy like mine, our face shapes are the same… there are so many things that I'm trying to pay attention to when finally she says: "Yo kid, you really got a staring problem, you sizing me up like that I'm not sure if I should let you in."
