My Name is Tanya Black and this is my story. 

My name wasn't always Tanya Black my parents left me on the steps of St.Patricks church South London as a new born and I was found by father Peter Black so he named me after his mother  I was found the 3rd of December so that was giving as my birthday. 

I'm now living in South London home for girls  I was placed here when I was 5 and never been placed with a family the nuns say it's because I'm a burden a bastards child. 

THIS IS MY STORY 

BEEP BEEP my alarm is calling me at 5.30 am this  should be banned making a 13year oldup this    Early.   I need to get dressed and cook breakfast for all 12 girls before school. I get up straight away not to wast time  I shower and braid my hair an slip on ripped jeans a size to big and a old off Gray hoodie I get second hand clothes as I'm not allowed new ones I trow on runners a size to small but there my only pair. I check the time 6.15am I run to the kitchen to start the breakfast. 

"Foods ready." I call up the stairs and take some toast to eat. I take a small plate and fill it with sausage egg and bacon and toast for Jodie she's just like me her parents took her to the zoo and told her to stand beside the monkeys and left she was 3  I never understood how you could abandon your own flesh let alone you child Jodie's 5 now and never gets a look in so I look after her as much as I can.  All the girls come running to the table  and as always Jodie's last sitting at the end I place the small plate in front of her "thank you Tanya" she smiles her biggest smile. I check the time and see it's 7.30  "come on girls dishes in the dishwasher and turn it on and to the door" I stand with 12 brown bags and hand them out as they walk out I hand them out. I hand Jodie her bag pack and lunch and grab my bag and head to the door an close it behind me.  And we bored the school bus to school. 

School 

I walk with my only friend Emma who was like me but was adopted at 7 so she knows what it's like  to certain  extents. Walking trough the hall ways to class  I see Kirsty who's  georgous and she knows it "hey wast of a human" I tried to keep  walking but she shoved me in to the wall and started punching and kicking me "that's for looking at me this is for breathing" and the last kick to the face making my nose bleed "that's for making me mad" and flipped her hair and walked away. I'm sad that this is my life but I will change it. I clean myself up an go to French I take 5 languages in school  and can speak fluent in 12  father peter taught me some then I read a lot and  soon I could speak most I take higher French so everyone's 2years older than me "settle down Iv got exciting news for you all, as you know it's almost winter break and myself and Mr.Craig have asked and been granted permission for a class trip to France so take these and get them signed by a parent " he looks at me then says "or your legal minder" he gives me a small smile. 30 minuets later the bell rings I get my stuff to leave  "Tanya can I see you for a moment please?" Mr.Quinn asks "yes sir" I say trying not to sound worried he looks out for me when he can, "this trip is worth 45% of your grade it's impotent you know that?" He sounds soft and concerned "yes sir I'll say it to sister Mary tonight about going" I respond "Tanya please you're a  excellent student I can see you going far but your not being allowed to reach your full potential" "with all do respect sir the sisters won't allow it I can try but I don't think they'll have the money for it"  I said with sadness " I have a solution for that a friend of mine just opened a laundrette about 20minuets away and is looking for after school staff for night shifts if you'd like I'll ask him for you?" My head shot up with a huge grin "yes please sir I'll be a great employee I promise" "I know now run to class and I'll tell you tomorrow okay" "okay thank sir" and I ran to next class 

The same thing on repeat again today breakfast clean talk to Emma  Kirsty's meanness and then lunch when Mr.Quinn pulled me "Tanya I called my friend he wants to give you a trial run for a few hours after school  I'll bring you there today so you know where to go is that okay?" "Yes sir thank you sir I have to talk  to sister  Mary to let her know " I said "I spoke to them and told them your doing after school extra credit for me so you can save your money and don't have to tell them" he smiled and said "see you at 3.45 Tanya"  "bye sir thank you " I turned to go to class. 

4.00pm 

" Hey Mike, this is Tanya the student I was talking about" 

"Hello Tanya I'm mike nice to meet you" he shakes my hand 

"Hello Mr.Mike it's a pleasure to meet you. I want to say thank you for the chance to work for you even if it's a test run" "now Tanya it's just Mile and the pleasures mine by the way Paul speaks about you  I couldn't wait to meet you" he said. "Iv to head now can't keep Sarah waiting it's date night" he rolls his eyes "Mr.Quinn I think it's a wonderful  idea" he smiles and leaves the shop.  "Now Tanya  let's get you trained in"
