I watched as my little sister played in the park with the other kids. I smiled at all the fun she was having and I wished the smile on her face, twinkle in her eye , and the joy in her heart could remain there, but sadly I knew I couldn't. I knew once we left the park, she would have to go back, back to a place I wanted to save her from but I couldn't just yet, back to a place where they teased and taunted her, back to a place we both sadly grew up in together until I turned 18. My sister is in foster Care and they won't let me take her with me until I have a stable job, house, car.... until I'm an adult in their eyes. I felt the tears weld up in my eyes because I knew our visit would be coming to an end soon... I was soon interrupted from my thoughts when my 8 year old little sister snapped a photo of me and yelled out Snaaaaap chat !!!! I took off running chasing her as we both laugh. Her phone is our only way of communication when I can't visit or when I cant see her everyday. I miss our mom and our dad soo much. I hate they took them away from us, they'll never see us graduate college, get married, have kids... they took that from us . It's been 3 long years and i'm still trying to find my heart again.
My name is Na'sina "Sin" Kendricks and I'm 19 years old and I'm attending college here in ATL called Butch University. I major as a RN and I currently have a year left before I graduate and then I can get my little sister out of foster home. I work two jobs just to make it on my own, but my one bedroom isn't big enough for us says the state lady bitch ! Ugh all I want is my happiness back. All I want is to stop stressing . All I want .......
