Layla Rose

Just like any old teenage girl I wanted to be like everyone  else , all I needed was to be able to fit in. That wasn't possible for me. My mother passes away in a terrible car accident.  She was driving and some stupid drunk guy didn't watch were he was going and drove right into my mother's door. My father tried getting a job to pay for the loss of my mother but unfortunately he job that he got ended up being very dangerous. He was working at a oil factory and all of the fumes got into him and aventually he passed away.
All of that tragedy happend when I was just 11 years old . At that time I was put into foster care , it was terrible. I wanted to run away but the security around that building was crazy! After 6 monthes a family that had had 8 miscarriages finally decided to adopt . Someting odd about this family was they didn't want a baby ,they wanted somebody older ,someone who could maybe understand a bit better. Now that was when I came into a really life with a perfect school and amazing friends. I stated calling these lovely people my new mother and father.
After a year of living with my new family we had a very important choice to make. We were moving away from South Africa and we were going to go to England. This move happend extremely fast. Before I knew it is was 13 and a half in a completely different environment. It was time to start a new life with new friends at a new school.
the first thing I noticed about my new school was how nice some of the people were but also how mean the so called 'popular' people were. Another thing I noticed was the music room and how much it made me feel like I was back home with my friends . I really missed them but I also really loved it here.
I really thought I liked this one guy named Anthony but after getting to know him he wasn't what I was looking for . He was mean and selfish and didn't care about what I thought. A few days after I found out how much I didn't like him my English teacher decided to make me sit next to him! Luckily my friend Ava was sitting behind me for the whole six weeks.
One stormy night I got home from hanging out with my friends and my 'mom and dad' were sitting on the sofa and I was wondering what was going on and they had told me the worst news any 14 year old girl could ever hear. It was the last thing I needed after a long hard day. Right at that moment I realised how much I missed my real family . I hadn't had anyone to just sit down and talk about it . I couldn't even trust anyone. And I really didn't need anymore bad news to come between me and my future with my friends . So with my new terrible news I thought it was time to finally trust someone new and let them into my 'real' life. The real life of me , Layla Rose.

Maybe my real life will help me with my future to come.....
