I've been sitting here for hours, days maybe. He hasn't come back for me yet, even though he promised."Hey!" A man in a police uniform came up to me. I shrunk back in fear."I'm not going to hurt you," He said. Yeah, that's what he said. "Where's your parents?" He asked.
"Gone. They left me here." My voice was hoarse,Like I hadn't drank anything for days. "My name is Charlie Swan. What's yours?" He asked. I could feel my eyes begin to tear up."My name is Alexa, Charlie." I choked out. "Alexa, how would you like for me to adopt you? I have an older daughter, who needs someone to hang out with." He asked. I furiously whipped my eyes."Will you hurt me like he did?" Charlie shook his head. "Who is 'he?'" He asked. I bit my lip gently, as to not draw blood. "My daddy." I answered.
"How old are you?" He asked. He sat down beside me."Fourteen." I said. He nodded. "What do you say?" I found myself nodding. "Okay. Come on. We can go to my house from here. Bella is probably there." He helped me up, and to the police car. I sat in the front and wondered about my new home. Will I like it? Will I make friends? Will this 'Bella' like me? So many questions that I didn't have the answer to.
