When it Rains

Chapter Two- Liz's POV

{Liz’s POV}

~* Alright, this chapter will be longer, and once again, like, comment and tell your friends*(pic of David and Sarah~

We’ve been waiting for a while, like, another four hours! Well, the old man said that it’s only been one, but I think he doesn’t know either. The crazy lady rode off on her bus and the bus station is now pretty deserted, the old man says he may have to go in a while with his wife, so I hope the Oliver’s come soon.

I look around and see that the rain has temporarily ceased, and the ground is covered in mucky wet dirt. Maybe that’s why they’re late? I scratch my head at look at the door; a big SUV just drove up and out steps Tim from the drivers seat!

I smile and jump off the bench, “sorry Mike, but my families here!”

Mike nods and tips his hat, “it’s all good little man, I’ll see ya’ around town alright?”

I nod and run to the door where Tim and the rest of his family is waiting. There is five of them, one boy, and two girls, and ones a baby! I. Hate. Babies. Well, depending on what they’re like she seems…okay. The whole family seems to be like Tim, Brunette, tall and athletic; they all seem to be in a good mood and they all seem pretty normal. They are okay with me if they are okay with me.

Tim is the first to notice me, since he was the first to see me, I think it’s pretty obvious, “Hey there Liz! Guys, this is Alizter, our newest addition to the family!”

The lady who I think the mother is smiles at me, “Hey there Liz I’m Martha, but please call me mom, momma, mommy, whatever you want. These are my kids,” the two older kids look up from their cell phones and smile, well, the girl does, the boy sorta’ grimaces, like he doesn’t smile often, “these two are David and Sarah, they are twins, and our youngest,” which I assume is the baby in Sarah’s arms, “is Rosie, she’s only three so she’s a baby.”

I smile and wave, “Hey guys I’m Alizter, call me Liz though! It’s nice to meet you finally! It seems like I’ve been waiting for-ever!”

Tim chuckles and reaches, into his suit pocket, “here, we got a present for you!”

With a grin I hold out my hands which he gently drops a red beaded necklace, “Gee, thanks; but…what is it?”

“It’s a rosary dear, I hope you don’t mind, but we are a religious family.” Martha says.

I frown for a second, an old, closed box rattling in my head, but I quickly shake it off and smile again, putting it on immediately and feeling relief instantly, “it’s alright!”

 With that we go into the big car, I sit in-between David and Sarah, while Rosie is tucked in her booster seat besides Martha and Tim in the front. She was napping through the whole introduction, but, decided to wake up now. The whole car is really clean, and nice. There are two TV’s in the back of the front seats and it smells like vanilla beans. The interior is all black and shiny, which I like and there is one single rosary on the mirror.

“Our house is just a few miles away Liz, so hold tight for about thirty minutes!”

I nod eagerly and scoot up in my seat, Sarah buckles me up and smiles, “hope you like us!”

David scowls at his sister, “he won’t know right away sis’. I can bet I’ll be his favorite though!” he laughed as Sarah glared daggers at him, “aw, come on Sarah, you know I was kidding! Or was I?”

I look at them both, “I think I already like you two!” 

  David grins and shuffles my hair, “that’s a good boy! I’ll tell you what: you can be my sidekick, copilot and favorite sibling if you can keep up!”

  Tim’s eyes float to the rearview mirror, “now David don’t go dragging him down into that rock music and nonsense you kids do all day.”

David’s eyes roll dramatically and he sighs, “yes dad,” Sarah giggles, “as long as Sarah doesn’t turn him into some weird girly guy.”

Sarah scowls at him and sticks out her tongue.

“Behave you two, at least until we get home,” Martha says, “Liz can figure out what to do about all of us on his own, got it?”

They both groan, “yes mom.”

With that the rest of the ride is silent, except for the occational gurgle from Rosie and chatter of Tim and Martha, David continues to stare aimlessly out the window while Sarah texts on her phone. I sit in the middle twiddling my thumbs together while waiting to get to my new home.

David notices my boredom and looks at me quickly, then reaches in his pocket, “why don’t I teach you how to play Angry Birds?”

I look at him, “why would I want to learn how to play with an angry bird?”

David gasped in mock horror, “why, you don’t know what Angry Bird is do you!?”

I shake my head slowly, “is it a game?”

“only the best!”

David teaches me how to play and by level eight, we are driving into the drive of a large two story house. It is pretty big, for me at least! All of the windows are closed, so the rain doesn’t come in, and the whole house is made up of red bricks, I can see two fire places at either end of the house along with a lot of garden.

    I notice a very colorful one in the middle of the drive as well as a fountain with a baby angel-yet another baby- and the whole yard is surrounded by tall trees, most are the ones with the pointy needle leaves instead of the regular ones. All in all, the place is nice, but it reminds me of one of those scary houses you see on Halloween specials you watch on TV.
