Social worker: Okay, come along with me

Addy thinking to herself: Ugh one more move and we will be home which is what I say every time we get switched to a new foster home

Alex: What's your input on these "New people"

Social worker: Well, they already have 2 kids so you guys will be able to fit right in

Addy: But what if it's like last time?

Alex: Don't think like that

Addy: Are they older or younger

Social worker: Well don't you seem anxious today huh

Addy: Sorry, but how old are they? I mean the kids

Social worker: Well there's two girls there younger of course

Alex: How far from here now

Social worker: Just about pulling up

Addy: Are the little girls like what 5, 6

Social worker: Think again

Addy watching these 11 and 12 year old girls running to the car: So like 6

Alex: I can't live with all these girls I hope you know that

Social worker: And I hope you know that this is only temporary

Addy feeling disappointed: Nice to know

Alex opening the car door: You know she didn't mean it like that

Addy: There no other way to mean it

Sophia: Hey, you are Adrienne and Alexander right

Addy: Um Addy and Alex but yea and your?

Sophia: Oh, right I'm Sophia I'm 12 almost 13 and this is my younger sister Isabella she's only 10

Isabella: Hi nice to meet you

Rosie: Hello there nice to have you I'm Rosie your new foster mom I'm sure you have already met Sophia and Isabella and you are Adrienne and Alex right

Alex: Actually I'm Alex and that's Adrienne

Rosie: Oh, I'm sorry my mistake but come follow me I'll show you to your bedrooms

Adrienne: Um excuse me miss Taylor

Rosie: Please call me Rosie and I will take you to your rooms

They walk into a big beautiful house with a chandelier hanging from the roof and a long spiral stair case with carpet and the floors are covered in hard glossy stone

Rosie: I really want you guys to feel as safe as possible here so I'll show you to your rooms now

Alex: So what did they do to have you agree to take us in

Addy: Alex!

Alex: What I'm curious

Rosie: Look, they didn't try to bribe me or anything to be honest after Isabella was born I couldn't have kids so now that adoption is an option I took it

Addy: So are you guys rich or something

Rosie: Yes actually after my husband passed we got all his money which I'm not saying is a good thing but it really helped me and my daughters

Alex: So how many stories

Rosie: 4 there's the main downstairs then the rooms then the little play area and then an attic I guess and this is your guys rooms
