Chapter 1: The News

My P.O.V

I was in my room listening to some music, dancing around in the room like an idiot. Also, singing out loud so everyone in the orphanage could hear me. Yes, I just said orphanage, the reason why I live there because I'm an orphan. My mom and dad died, so the people took me in under their wings. My mom died in a car crash, when I was at school at the time when I was 9. Dad, on the other hand died of cancer. Lung Cancer, to be exact, when I was 6. Then, my teacher, Ms. Julie came in. "Rebecca, we have some good news for you." she smiled.

Then, this is what happened.

My P.O.V (Still)

"Rebecca, we have some good news for you." said Mrs. Shirley, the boss of the orphanage company. "Ok, what's the good news?" I asked. "You're getting adopted!!!" shrieked happily, Ms. Julie. "What? How?" I asked in concern. "Well a family, came in and wanted a girl, so we talked about you and everything. So, they decided to pick you." replied Mrs. Shirley.

"Oh, so they are those parents who can't have kids?" I asked. "No, not exactly. They have four boys." she replied. "Wait a minute!! Who's the family?" I asked. Mrs. Shirley, sighs and hangs her head. "The Wilkersons." she said.

The Wilkersons?!?! Did I just hear the words "The Wilkersons" ? Well, apparently I did. The reason why I say that is because they are the worst family in the whole entire world. I mean the worsest family, of the worsest families of the galaxy. I have a complete reason why, because their family's crazy, weird, Dsyfunctional, and very not stable and structured with boundaries and rules.

"The Wilkersons?" I asked. "Why would they want me?" "Well, because they always wanted a girl. We talked about you--" I cut them off. "I know that!!! But, I don't think it's a good idea." I said. "Why?" Asked Ms. Julie. "Well, I know their kids. They go to my school and they have the most weirdest family I have ever met." I replied. "Well maybe, give them a chance, Rebecca." Mrs Shirley replied. "It's Becky, ma'am, call me Becky." I said "Ok, Becky. We think this is good and new for you." Said Mrs. Shirley. "Why? I rather stay here for the rest of my life than stay with those bozos." I said, while I crossed both of my arms together. "Rebecca Parker, don't ever say that again!!!" Said Ms. Julie. "Yes, Ms. Julie, I'm sorry." I said. "But, please I'll do anything you want, just don't let me stay with The Wilkersons." I pleaded, while I put my hands in a praying position, and begging on my knees. "Ok, fine. You can do one thing." Mrs Shirley said. "Anything." I said happily. "You can't back away from this, you're staying with them." She smiled smugly. I gave her a mad face. "Fine." I went on, "I will."

The Next Day

Today's the day where they pick me up. "I hope they aren't crazy as I thought they were, but at the same time, I hope they like me and except me." I thought. "Well, off I go." I said. I have my suitcase and everything with me. "Well goodbye, Rebecca, we will miss you." Said Ms. Julie. She came over and gave me a hug. I gave her a hug back. Mrs. Shirley came over. "I will miss you, bright one. Remember, don't judge a book by its cover, you never know what's within the pages." She said. She came over and gave me a hug. I saw the kids inside the buildings waving at me, with the windows opened. I hear "Bye, Rebecca" and "We will miss you". I waved back at them with a smile. I'm going to miss them, they to me were like a second family, dear to my heart. Then, I saw the car. I walked forward from the steps, and saw them. I saw a lady with brown hair and a father with brown hair, with a suit and tie. "Hi I'm Lois, but you can call me mom." She said, nicely. "Hi I'm Hal, but you can call me dad." He smiled. "And, welcome to the family!!" They shouted together as one.

This is going to be a long day. Welcome to my new life.
