Saving avery [mafia]

Safe

" hello it's Sandra the social worker we have a foster placement if your willing to take it" my eyes widen "yes hang on" I mute myself as I run down the hall bursting into ants office "we have a foster placement" I say he looks at me shocked

" yes tell them yes" he says calling someone I unmute " yes we will take them" I say smiling she hums " be there in an hour" I thank her and end the call " an hour she said I'll go make sure everything's okay" he nods and kisses my cheek

I walk upstairs to the room and open the curtains it's pitch black outside

Me and ant have been trying to adopt or foster for years we got approved years ago and they just haven't given us anything so I'm happy about this

We wait but ants pacing there's a loud knock at the door I open it and my eyes widen I see a girl in handcuffs with two police officers and Sandra " this is avery" the girl doesn't look up " she only needs a placement for the night then she will be out of your hair" I nod slowly letting them in

I look at ant and he has worry and confusion in his eyes " anything we needed to know" I ask and Sandra nods " she was found starting a fight was arrested put her through the system and she is in the care system so I needed to find a placement for a night tooo room in one of the homes free up hopefully soon" Sandra says

" didn't fucking start the fight told you this" avery grits out " okay so these officers will stay for safety if it's okay with you" me and ant share a look " we have our own security" he says I nod " so they don't have to stay" I say and Sandra nod " sure can't they take her to the room" I nod and they follow me

We get to the room I open the door and they walk in taking the hand cuffs off her " bye avery" they say to her she doesn't even turn around before we walk out I shut the door

We walk downstairs " here's her bag full of clothes and her medical bag she has epilepsy so if she has a fit stab the orange pen in her thigh and it should work" I nod and her " what happens if we like her can we keep her" I ask she laughs " she's been in 70 foster homes in the last year and a half I don't think you will but sure just when I come back I'll give you three days tell me" I nod we bid goodbyes and she leaves

" I'll take the bag up" I say he nods and goes to sit on the couch I walk upstairs and knock then walk in she's sat on the other side of the bed back to the door " your bag avery" I put it on the bed she nods " thanks" she mutters "we will speak tomorrow get some sleep" she nods I walk out and shut the door
