Settling down and sending my applications to different firms, i studied a two-year's course on working as a child attorney.
It was more like 20 years to me.
The lectures and practice never ended.
At least I'm going to make good use of it.
Mum was surprised to see me at her home office.
"What you doing, Missy"
"Sending out applications to firms"
She smiled and winked at me "That's my girl"
I glared "Lady,Mum I'm 20"
She chuckled and hugged me from behind "I love you and I know you'll definitely get it"
I adjusted my purple top and kept sending "That's the prayer, Momma".

6 Months.

With the Sun hugging my every movement, I walked to the parking lot and retrieved my car, My 21st birthday was coming up and I was happy.
Carla got the deal for her artworks and I got the job,I was now an attorney for kids,teens and youths who go through abuse each day.
I had few hookups here and there,nothing spectacular and I was swiftly rising in my working place.
I got my own condo, I still visit mum occasionally.
My Birthday's on Tuesday and today's Sunday.
Fighting for Todd case was a really hard nut to crack,the Orphanage claims to be taking good care of him but he claims otherwise....Eleven year olds don't lie or do they???
All the same,I really needed him out of there because I believe him, so my supervisor wants evidence.
"Yes??"
"Hey A,what's up,preparing for tomorrow??"
Setting my bag and files into my car,I slammed the door and sat down, putting the key into the ignition "yea I am,finally Todd can go to a better place or a foster home".
"Yea" Carla was also one of my discuss-my-case-with buddies.
"Gotta drive,I'll call you when I get home"
"Love you A"
"Love you too C".
Cutting the call and starting the car,I sighed and prayed for Todd;Mother style.
