After a super long drive from Oregon to Colorado, I get out of the truck and stretch my legs. It's so pretty in the mornings here. The mountains, the green tree's and the sunrise. The air is little different than Oregon's but I'll adjust.
"Izzy! You coming in or not?" My new foster mom asks walking towards the restaurant,
"yeah I am." I take one more look at the place I am now apart of. When we walk in the the little building, I notice how not upper class it is.
She orders for herself and I look at the menu only slightly confused. Finally I say I want the supper fry.
T/L-10minutes
We walk back up to the register and pick up our order. I open the box with my order in it and to my amazement, there is more food there than there ever was in my old home. I thought about it for a minute and started eating, all the flavors made a delicious new taste in my mouth.
I smile this stupid grin and look like a total idiot. It was new, not just the food but the feeling of freedom. As I gaze at the mountains which are now engorged in the sunlight. I start to space out. Just taking in the new scene
T/L-15minutes
"Hello! Izzy! You in there?" Cherrel says, snapping me out of my haze.
"Y-yea." I sat she smiles at me handing me a bag to put my leftovers in. We get up and start towards her truck.
"So how much longer till we get to grand junction?" I ask staring at my nervous hands.
"About an hour." She replys I nod and look out my window, a little sign says Glenwood springs. I think about my siblings and wonder if they are okay.
They were sent to California. I promised my oldest sister that when I was old enough I would find a way to see them and bring us all back together again. My eyes feel heavy with sleep and before I know it I'm in a place of serenity.
Dream: "Izybell! My baby sister lily runs into my arms with a smile the size of Texas on her little face.
I pick her up and spin her smiling as she giggles. My little brother Gabriel runs and hugs my torso. Allison, my oldest little sister gracefully strides over to me and implants a huge grin on her face. We're all together happy...
End dream;
"Izzy, love we're here. Wake up." I wake to the sound of cherrels' voice. I look around and see a line of two story houses. We are parked in front of a blue older house. There is a large oak tree and little clay frogs scattered throughout the yard.
