Adira

I slowly jog down the beach with my Dog trailing behind, sniffing out different scents in the sand then running to catch up.

My name is Adira Wilson am sixteen yrs old, currently living in Kingston Jamaica with my adoptive parents Peter and dorothy.
They adopted me when I was just eight yrs old when I first heard that I was getting adopted I was excited,thinking I would be going into a happy family how I was wrong.

Since the day I started living with them I was treated horribly and forced to do chores and slave away for them and there bitch of a daughter Emma, they would constantly degrade me shout at me and find reasons to punish me. To get away from all the fighting and constant shouting  I would go down by the beach to get away from it all sometimes I would just sit on the sand for hours and just look out at the waves. Bzzt Bzzt I look down and see my phone ringing.

Adira: hello
Peter: ADIRA WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU
Adira: Am at the beach
Peter: GET YOUR ASS HOME WE HAVE BIG NEWS

And with that he hung up on me by hearing those words I was worried cause nothing good ever comes when he calls me shouting and sounds angry as hell I got and we race down the block and slowed when I saw the so called home that I have come into sight.

I walked up the steps to the front door I was nervous wondering what the news was as, I stepped into the house I saw the two of them sitting around the dining table what's going on I asked "sit down adira as you know we have been having some money problems and we've found a salution" I always heard them talking about money to eachother but I never really paid any attention to it I wonder what kind of solution they have found "ADIRA" he called snaping me out of my thoughts yea sorry countinue "As I was saying we came up with a solution to solve the problem " okay what is it " when I was at work yesterday a man approached me and said he would take care of our debt and give us some money in exchange for you" WHAT you cant do that at this point my blood was boiling "this is not up for discusion he will be here tomorrow for you so go and pack your things now".

I ran upstairs with tears streaming down my face I slammed the door shut and sarted crying even harder. I knew that they hated me but not once have I ever thought that they would sell me just for there own selfish gains. I cried on the ground infront of my door for what seems like hours, I couldnt belive that tomorrow they would be handing me over to some random man.

I finally got up and decided to take a shower I stripped out of my gray sweatpants and white crop top and I looked in the mirror at the many scars from when peter thinks am disobeying his orders and deserve a punishment I stood there looking until I heard a pounding at my door I quickly grabbed my robe and wrapped it round myself before opening the door to see Dorothy.

"Why the hell are you naked" I was just gonna take a shower "well never mind that I'm just hear to tell you that the man we'll be selling you to is not from here'' what the hell is that soupposed to mean where is he from " he's a very powerful Buisness man from New York and thats where your going back with him".

What the hell are you fucking crazy you cant just ship me off to the other side of the world with some random man who might kill me.

"Watch your tone when your talking to me girl I am still your mother" when she said that I couldnt do anything but burst out into laughter "I may have never had a mother but I doubt that how you treat me isn't how a mothers soupposed to treat their daughter''.
