At the home i grab the tv remote off of the coffee table, and slump down on the sofa. Turning on the tv i ry to catch up with supernatural, i am 2 episodes behind. Dean is my favourite he is so cute. After an hour of watching supernatural one of the girls came in and snatched the remote from my hands. "Hey" i yelled. "Shut up, its my turn" Roxanne replied angrily. Urgg i have to put up with this at school and at home. Well its not really home. It has never felt like it, even though i have been here most my life. Sometime i just want this nightmare to end, why did my parent have to abandon me when i was only 3 months old? Why did the parents in the homes i went to have to be abusive? So may questions that can probably never be answered.
Ye I'm a foster kid. Got thrown in the system when a couple found me on there doorstep.

Pulling my self off of the sofa, i shoot Roxanne a glare before trotting up to my room. I share my room with this 10 year old girl named Tilly. She seems pretty nice, she likes to keep to herself. She sits on her bed reading her book, waiting for her parents to come and get her. The other kids pick 9on her saying that they will never come back, That they left her for a reason.

I cant get the scene from the park from my head. So i go to see if the homes computer is free. Seeing that it is free,i plop down on the chair and pull up the internet. Getting on google i search people with beasts for heads. Clicking enter over 100 websites appear on the screen. Clicking on the top one a site comes up, the tittle is greek myths. The pictures are of people with human bodies, and then the head of an animal. Scrolling down i find some information that may be useful.

Galatus Beasts, or better known as people with human bodies and a head for a beast
is a roman myth created thousands of years ago. People are known to see these creatures
when they have been close to death or you are related to death its self. It was common in the early 1900, people were known to say that they can see creatures with the head of a beast and the body of a human being. These creature are people on the spirit plane who are holding on and want revenge. The people who can see these
beings are called death seekers.

Am i a death seeker? I mean it would explain why i could see that girl. But it says it is just a myth,  i was probably low on sleep and imagining things. I shut down the computer, but not before deleting the history. The girls already think I'm crazy they don't need something else on me too. Looking at my watch i see that it is 9:30pm. Im quite tired, so i walk up the stairs put on my pyjamas and get in bed. Thinking about the days events lures me to sleep.
