Chapter zero

I don't remember how my life began I just know the stories. Very little stories . When I was younger me and siblings sitting in my momma's room her telling us stories of when we was younger. I asked her what about me but she only had two.

    All she got was two stories of me before we was took. I was just a baby came home from the hospital cause I has a serious case of whoopin cough. If I do recall from what I was told it was around my second oldest sister birthday. Not only me though there's five of us and me the youngest and my oldest sister was both came back from the hospital that day. They was running test on her cause she's special needs and I recall momma saying that it was hard to watch my sister screaming and crying while they put a tube in her.

      All momma could tell me was I slept wild and she could occasionally see me wanting me to walk and speak within the next time I saw her . She said when she'll say "next time I see you I want you to be walking " the next time she saw me I was walking or talking ect . No one can tell me what my first words were.  No can show me my first steps, my first , second or third birthdays .

    When we was took my three older siblings old enough to remember was sperated from me and my sister above me.
My oldest sister was sperated from all of us . Her going to rich country family who her a pet pig . My second sister and my only brother was together and they went to a lady who had a daughter.  Her daughter hated my brother so he peed on her carpet. My and third sister  went to lady named Ms. Dot she known for fostering children I had a birthday party there from what I seen in a printed out picture now lost.

     We didn't stay in those homes for long as our mother and Aunt was looking for us and our dad looking for other women allegedly.  We all got moved to Florida to live with our great Aunt and her husband but me and my third sister didn't stay there for long . Apparently I cried a lot so my uncle and his partner came to get us so now we was sperated again.

    We was in Virginia for a while I think my mom came to visit me and my sister but the memory is foggy. My mom moved to North Carolina and we followed suit. We moved into the very nice house still with my uncle and aunt. There was probably house before , no there was judging by the old photos I just don't remember.

    We went to New York and South Carolina for holidays and but sometimes we stayed home. I didn't spend any of those holidays with my mom , dad , or other siblings.  It was just me and sister and when I started to remember and gained consciousness of my body and my existence. That's all I remember it was just me and her. I've forgotten about my mom , my dad, and my other siblings.
