Danielle's POV
I sat at the table addressing the situation almost every newly adapted kid has to face. I watched Barbra and Jason eat breakfast planning what to do today.
"So does this make you my parents?" I asked.
"You know it." Barbra said winking at me.
"You're lucky. You have the coolest parents ever." Jason chuckled and Barbra elbowed him playfully. "I'm just kidding." He said raising his hands in defense.
"So what are we doing today?" I asked
"Well, later I was going to take you by the Academy to get you enrolled so you can start classes as soon as possible. Then maybe even more shopping because now I have more people to feed and we forgot some things yesterday. After that I guess your dad will give you a tour while I attend the meeting at the watch tower. Then I don't know, we'll just wing it from there." Bar-mom said.
"Do you think we could come to the meeting? I would like to help and Danielle could come in handy." Dad asked.
"I'll check with Dick, but I'm sure he'll be fine with it." She reassured.
"So when do we start?"
"Now, get yourself ready and meet at the door in ten." She said leaving the room. I could get use to this.
Emzabeth's POV
I stood in front of the long mirror with my mom and dad standing behind me. I we have been shopping and I absolutely love it. I finally had someone who loved me besides Pur'nia and that doesn't count because she has to love me because she's my protector and blah, blah, blah. I finally belonged. Then I get to go shopping and have clothes and stuff that's really mine.
"So, do you like it. I know we didn't really come shopping for formals and semi-formals but they could come in handy when we drag you to silly galas and prom and homecoming and stuff or fancy dinners and well, you get what I'm saying." Mom said. I was wearing a black floor-length formal with a red ribbon around my waist and no straps. I smiled and nodded.
"Then that's an even ten dresses. I think that's enough for one day." Mom said standing up and grabbing all the dresses we were buying. I went and got dressed. When I walked out Danielle was there with Barbra and some other guy talking to my parents.
"Hey Emzabeth. How are you doing?" Barbra asked. I just stood there. "Does she ever talk?" she asked mom.
"Yes, she's just choses to be quiet. Like a dove." My mom stepping forward taking the dress from me and putting it with the others.
"Well, we'll so you guys at the meeting." Dad said taking the dresses from mom and putting his hand around the small of my back pulling me to his side as we walked away and waved and mom linked her arm mine. I was a dove. Dove, I like the sound of that.
