No New Friends (Completed)

New Beginnings

Heaven's POV

All I remember seeing was blood and a lifeless body. I remember hearing MeMe cries and Kevin reading us a letter, a suicide note. Now MeMe and I were sitting in a white room filled with inspirational quotes. MeMe grabbed my arm tighter and let out a cry that hurt my heart. Moma Kerri was the only mother I knew. I spent all but The first 6 years of my life with her. I cried harder thinking about the fact that she saved Jeremiah and me from being separated. I lost my twin brother and foster moma, well, my moma exactly 2 weeks apart. MeMe and I are the only two left. Somebody came in and interupted my thoughts. "Excuse me? Heaven Smith and Simone Prince?", this dark woman asked. Neither of us responded. We just sat there holding each other. "I'm sorry for your lost but I need both of you to cooperate with me.", she said with more of an attitude. I looked at the clock it was 5pm. MeMe eyes were puffy and red so I just imagined I looked the same.

I believe we are in Bridgewater Counseling Center. I must've blacked-out again because I don't remember coming here. "Look Heaven and Simone. I get paid whether y'all talk to me or not. Yall wasting my time and my energy.", the woman said. "We didn't ask to be here so I can give one or two fucks about your time or energy.", Simone said a harsh tone. The woman walked out and came back with in with an older man. This man looked so familiar. Oh. He was the man that was talking to Ma, and left when we pulled up yesterday. " Hello girls. My name is James Oneal. I'm with the Department Of Human Services." "No, you can't take Puma away from me. She's all I have left. Please don't separate us.", Simone pleaded. "I'm not going to separate you two. I'm not even trying to make you all move out of your house. I sent Alisha in here to see if you wanted to sign up for counseling. And since both of you are still in school and under 18 years of age, we'll let you stay alone under one condition." Mr. Oneal looked from me to Simone. "And what will that be?", I asked, managing to get my first words out. "Well Heaven, someone from our offices will have to come by once a week or twice a month to make sure everything is running smoothly. From my understanding, you are the oldest by two weeks, right?" I nodded in agreement. "And you lost your twin brother exactly two weeks from today.", Mr. Oneal said slowly. I didn't say anything just shook my head with tears falling from my face. Mr. Oneal and Alisha left Simone and I to think about all this. We agreed on the twice a month visitation and left.
