"The higher I get the lower I'll sink I can't drown my demons they know how swim." My phone blared this out loud telling me it's time to get up for school. Ugh I hate school by the way I know your probably so confused as to why I hate school, because I get bullied. by the way my names Addison but my family calls me Addi. All I gotta say is the one word I hate more than anything is love I mean everyone talks about how they Love someone it's just annoying to hear all the time, but anyway I'm getting off topic anyways today started off like all my other days do I woke up to the same song I always do every morning take a showy brush my teeth go down stairs to be greater by my parent my mom talks first,
Hey how'd you sleep?

And I being me said

The same I'm still tired.
Something tho was off about my parents so I just acting like something up.

Hey is something up? It's just you guys are just acting like something's up.

This time to my surprise my dad speaks first saying

Look sit down on the couch I don't really know how to really put this into words so here is goes. your mom and I never told you this but umm... your adopted.

I'm pretty sure I must be dreaming my parents did not just say I was adopted.

I'M WHAT? Why didn't to ever tell me? And why tell me now?

We are telling you now because your real family wants you back and our contract states that if at any point they wanted you back we had to willingly give you back, but go to court first for them to gain custody over you.

I was dumbfounded I new we didn't look alike but I never expected this to happen so I said.

Who are my real family?

My mom spoke.

Her name is Dianna Lovato and she has three kids named Dallas, Demetria who are your full sisters and Maddison who is your half sister.

That last name sounds familiar. My dad tho continued

But now Dianna's last name is not Lovato no more it is DeLaGarza.

DeLaGarza sounds familiar too but where do I know the name these names from?
