Her Perfect Family

🌼- 30 -🌼

Amelia

Seeing Avaleigh laying there I thought I'd be upset but I have almost moved on.. Krystella and Avaleigh were close as anything when I got to the family... I mean sure they took me in and everything I appreciated finding my mum but I still felt like I was intruding..

Then to hear that she was a murdered and a kidnapper and everything else that's bad...I didn't really feel apart of it at all... That's not who I was... Avaleigh and Krystella lived a hard, hard life... I did have a good place. The college campus home was a nice place to be. I liked everyone there, I got treated well. I never got abandoned like those two... so I guess I never really fit in anyway.

To be where I am now with Linda and George I guess it's not much different to how I was living before but just on my own with some of my college friends. Who I still see, Linda called the college up yesterday and I start there again in the Summer so I'll be back with my old friends and lecturers. It'll be like it was before. Before I found out who I could have turned out like.

To be honest I'm not surprised that Avaleigh killed herself.. I probably would of too if my life was that bad... and Krystella well that's all she knows is a life of hardship and struggle. Me I guess I was always better off than all of them...and I'm glad one of us had a good life and will continue...

I'm scared to say but I'm worried what kind of trouble Krystella will get into if she doesn't do something with hers....

I'd hate to see her turn out to be like my real mother. But she's an angry person, she has a lot of built up rage inside of her...

If anyone's going to follow mother's foot steps it's going to be her.

"Amelia darling, dinner time."
"Coming mum." I called and gasped when I realised what I had just said. A smile slowly crept across my face...

She was my mum in a way though wasn't she? I mean why couldn't I call her Mum and George Dad, they were my new family and I loved them for choosing me. It may sound selfish but the other two wouldn't have been so accepting of the new family status. I am!

I walked down stairs to see steaming hot food set on the table. Dinner time felt like a restaurant everyday!

Linda came up to me and took me in for a big cuddle. Not a hug an actual cuddle. I saw a tear fall down her cheek I looked up at her concerned..

"What's wrong Mum. I mean Linda." I whispered.

"You called me mum! I was hoping we made an effect on you for you to feel safe and loved and to feel like this is your home, and you calling me mum makes me feel like this is true." She whispered back squeezing me.

"It is true I love both of you very much, I am so greatful you picked me." I squeezed her back. "You don't mind if I call you mum?" I asked

"Darling I was hoping you would. Because I am your mum now." She kissed me on the forehead.

"Can I call George, dad?" I mumered.

"I think you would make him actually smile again if you did that!" She quietly squealed.

We both laughed together I sat down waiting for dad to come down stairs.

"Evening ladies" He said as he kissed mum on the cheek.
"Hi honey." She smiled at him.
"Hi dad." I said and smiled.

"What did you just say?" He gasped.
I laughed. "I said Hi dad, it's what you are isn't it." I grinned again.

"Yes..yes I am!" He started laughing got up and hugged me from behind my chair.

"So glad we picked you." He whispered in my ear and kissed me on the cheek.
"Me too." I smiled at him again. He let go and went back to his seat.

"Now let's stop all the cutesy gooeyness and eat!" He laughed and we both burst out laughing too.

I love my family!!
