I woke up with cold sweats from the nightmare that haunts my dreams to the nightmare that is my life. I sigh as I remember what today was... The day that I finally meet my new family. Then there's the obvious question, "will they replace my mom and dad?" Well... No, I will never let my guard down again. All that means is getting hurt, and boy do I do that a lot. Then, the thoughts began to flood my mind "it should have been me" "it was MY fault" "I should die so I am finally loved again" some of the thoughts were just plain crazy, but I still made myself believe them. I got up, thoughts still racing in my head and I went to the bathroom to the razor. I didn't cut for the attention, I cut because of the sensation it gave me when I fell into my bottomless pit of depression. Once I finished my long cut across my thigh, I cleaned up the sink and took a quick shower just to make myself in the least bit presentable to my new family. I put on the nicest clothes I had from before the accident that still fit me. I wore a white tank top, and a black skater skirt with black strappy sandals. I left my brown long wavy hair in its natural form and just brushed it out. When it was time for me to go, I grabbed my few belongings and just went... Walking down the stairs, I remembered why I hated this place, the creaking stairs gave me chills, the eerie shadows made me uneasy and- the thing that interrupted me was a beautiful woman the kindness in her eyes made me slightly less tense and the boy next to her was extremely handsome but I shook the thought seeing as he may be my future big brother. They approached me as I came down the stairs with a sign that read my name : Ava Mae Smith I smiled a warm smile- well as warm as I could. I greeted them both and they seemed very nice "seemed is the key word". I thought. As we left I thought to myself, "goodbye Ava Mae Smith, hello Ava Mae Dallas"
