Dear Stranger,

You now know the news of me moving across town.

Not because I told you,

But because you saw from your bedroom window right next-door.

I'm sorry.

I guess life just hates me,

But at least the foster family seems nice.

They all seem nice in the beginning.

.....

The girl stares in awe at the large sky blue two story house in front of her. Her new home. All she brought with her from her old house was her backpack and a few pairs of clothes. Wow, this is the biggest house I've ever lived in, they must be wealthy she thought to herself. That's when she saw him.

The boy dropped his phone when he saw her, the girl, outside his neighbor's house. What is she doing here? Is this some sort of joke? He thought to himself. Then she looked straight at him. He froze in place, so many emotions passing through him. But the one that took control was anger, she was here to destroy him. He fought it back, he didn't want to hurt her, but something in him wanted to hurt because of how weak she looked. And how in class she doesn't even look at the teacher or seem to pay attention yet she's the top of the class. As if she's better than everyone else.

"Hello there sweetie I'm Teresa Collins, but you can call me, Mom... if you want." said Mrs. Collins.

Mrs. Collins gushed at the girl. Without hesitation, she pulled the delicate girl into a warm hug. Mrs. Collins always wanted a child, but sadly she couldn't have one of her own. She saw the girl's profile, and was moved how she saw still going on without any problems with drugs or alcohol like other kids.

The girl flinched at the sudden movement, but froze completely when she felt soft arms around her. She was confused none of her past foster parents ever hug her. Was she safe? She wondered.

No it's a illusions, it's fake. Nothing is real. This isn't really happening, it's just one big twisted dream. The captain of the school's football and wrestling team hasn't noticed me. I'm not neighbors with the school's bad boy. I'm not noticed. I'm not important to anyone. It's just an illusion. It's not real. The girl thought to herself.

"Welcome home Daniela." Mrs. Collins squeals to the girl.

"Thank you." she replied.

..........

Love,
Me
