After a while of us being at home I hear a knock at the door. I have no idea who it could be as the pizza we ordered already came and we haven't invited anyone over.

Phil get up from the sofa and walks away to answer the door. When he comes back into the lounge, where Dan is in his sofa crease, on the Internet and I'm still chewing on a slice of pizza, he is holding a package. He passes it to me and I give him a questioning look.

"What is this?" I ask. The box is big and heavy.

"Just open it." Dan says. Clearly they both know what it is.

I rip of the layer of tape that's sealing the box together. As I open the box I see other boxes inside it. I pull them out, one by one.

I gasp. There is a camera, a fold up light (as lighting for my videos) and a disc to download a video editor.

"Oh my god! I can't except this!" I say to Dan and Phil, who now have beaming smiles across their faces.

"It's fine, now you don't have to borrow ours." Phil says to me.

"Thank you so much!!"

Dan and Phil help me to take the equipment into my room and we place everything on my floor. I decide that tomorrow I'll record a video so I can quickly make use out of everything.

I open the box which holds a canon camera and charge it straight away. I then open the box which holds my lighting and place two batteries into it. Finally I install the editing software onto my MacBook.

By this time we all realise that it's past 1am and we are all very tired so we all decide that it's a good time to sleep.

I wake up to my 10am alarm that is still set as dans voice from when he hacked into my phone as a joke. I groan and turn it off. I then see the camera I have, charging in the corner of my room.

I jump out of bed and walk into the kitchen to see Dan and Phil, already awake, both pouring some cereal into their bowls.

"Hi, guys"

"Hey Kia!" Dan says

I grab some cereal and eat it, sat on my bed. I the. Inform Dan and Phil that I will be recording a video so they can't come into my room unless they need to.

I set up my camera and lighting (with a bit of help from Dan) and start to speak.

"Hellloooo! So today I would first of all like to thank you all for nearly 100,000 subscribers. This is my second video and my channel has already gotten so popular. I am really grateful!"

"Anyway, today I am going to share with you my story. As you all know, I am adopted and obviously I have some stories from the 15 years that I went without Dan and Phil so that is what I'm going to talk about today."

"I never knew my family properly, I was barely 6 months old when they had a car crash. Fortunately i was at home with a baby sitter. Although it sounds sad, it's better that I don't have anyone to cry about loosing."

"I didn't notice the badness of staying in an orphanage until the age of about eleven. School started to get hard at the teachers all seemed to be witches or monsters. I was good at school. Better than the average person 3 years older than me. My parents friends said it ran in the family. That's why I don't go to school any more. It's legal, don't worry!"
I let out a laugh.

"Anyway, as I progressed in school, my social life with the fellow orphans started to decay. Everyone I knew got adopted easily. Clearly I wasn't meant to join and ordinary family and have an ordinary life. My chances of being adopted grew slimmer as I got older. It was just under 3 weeks ago that Philip Michael Lester walked into the orphanage looking for someone my age to adopt."

I then continue the speak about what my life was like and what it's been like with Dan and Phil and then I get up and turn off the camera.
