Being homeless is hard, I should know. Hi, my name is Mia Scott. My mom, brother, and I live on two benches outside of an old thrift store. We have been here for about five months. The reason we are here is because, my mom lost her job from being late almost every day helping my brother and I, and our car kept breaking down. All I really do is just stair at the cars. Stairing at cars always makes me sad, my dad died in a car accident three years ago. Someone tapped on my should and scared me, they asked how old I was and I told him that I am 15. The second question he asked me was why I was out here all alone. I explained that I lived here with my Mom and brother and that I'm waiting for her to get back, he said so you live in that store, I told him we live on these benches. He started explaining about how much money he has and about how greedy rich people are and that he wants to change that. He handed me a piece of paper and I realized it was a check, for 1000$! I made sure to thank him and I was so excited I gave him a big hug
