Bianca has been a while in the shower. I go up to see her later on the guest bed crying.
M: omg bee are you okay?
B: y-yes. It's just kaisey.
M: tell me babe what's happened
B: she was in an accident.. another car crash.
M: oh my! Is she okay.
B: just scars here and there. Maybe a broken finger.
M: atleast it isn't that big.
B: Mitchell can we go to adopt today...
M: sure Biancaaaaaa!
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
We arrive at the child adoption place and meet a few 1 year olds they're all so cute but one stuck out to me, she was shy like Bee when I first met her. Her name was Emma-Leigh. She gave us both little flowers from the garden and always was looking at her feet.
B: oh I don't know!
M: what about Emma-Leigh.
One of the adoption workers told us about Emma's past. She grew up in a home where she was not fed until she tried to use the potty, even when she didn't need it.
B: so Emma-Leigh?
M: sure!
She was smaller than the others, she couldn't walk but she could crawl. Her eyes were bright blue like the ocean and her hair was long and thin. It was blonde. Her skin was pale and she had a small amount of freckles.
B: let's go shopping!
M: sure!
*Biancas POV*
I got Emma out the car and sat her in a buggy we bought some time back. We went around so many shops letting her pick teddies and toys. We bought her loads of clothes. My favourite thing we bought was probably the blue and purple sequinned dress. While I finished shopping Mitch went to buy Emma a cot, slide, swing set, etc..
We drove home and played baby tunes letting Emma listen and bob her head. She smiled so much. I loved to see it.
I invited some friends over to have like some sort of baby shower. Mitchell invited some friends too. Jade and Dylan came with Luke and we had a party really. I went into another room with Jade and we talked for a while.
J: She seems a bit frail?
B: yeah her last family were strict but she was saved. She is shy but I'm sure she's gonna be loved by so many!
J: She seems so happy. I'm happy for you kids!
B: I'm 20 soon stop!
We talk and laugh for a bit still my sleeve slips up and the red scars appear..
B: oh urm I need to erm go to the toilet.
J: No you don't, what happened!
B: Bye!
I leave the room and run to my en-suite. I'm such a fool oh my god. I shake my head and stare at myself in the mirror. I'm a mess. My eyes are red, my face is too. My body looks fat and disgusting. I go to take my pills and grab the razor again.
B: Stop bee!
Voice1: no carry on! It's good, it will help you bee trust me.
Voice2: yeahhhh it'll make all problems go away. It'll make u stable enough to be a great mother.
Voice1: do it!
B: STOP!
Mitchell burst through the door at that word.
*Mitchells POV*
I was just walking to grab my phone from my room when I hear something
B: STOP!
I hear her yell and i run through the bathroom door seeing bee on the floor sobbing her eyes out. She had a small razor in hand, she had a blank look of terror on her face and she kept saying things like no! and stop!
M: bee it's okay there's only me here!
My eyes divert to her hand holding the razor, her wrist, was decorated in white, red and purple scars, some small and some big. Was that why she screamed on stream a while ago. No, it can't be.
B: Mitchell they're not leaving!
B: Shut up!
M: just focus on me, listen to me, only me, I'm the only one here but you.
B: I'm not gonna be a good mother if I don't do it.
M: you're already a great mother please calm down.
We sit on the floor till jade walks in, took aback by what's happened.
J: Bee!? Are you ok
B: NO!
We tell everyone to leave, Jade settles Emma and I let Bee go to bed early. I sit on the sofa with Jade. I hope Bianca is ok by morning.
