Finally have my own Pov there's not really a reason to introduce myself hell you know more about me than I know about myself. Let me just tell you about my life the part you don't know I'm adopted but you knew that already and I love my mom when she told me that I was adopted it was no mystery both of y parents where white and here I am just a few shades darker you could assume that I tan a lot but that's not the case. I love my mom to death you see we use to be the perfect family, now when I say perfect I mean daddy's girl and mommas world we use to attend church every Sunday, stayed involved in the community and all around good ass people took in those who needed. Mom is a lawyer dad was in the army, mom couldn't have kids so when she got the phone call about a beautiful black baby she just knew that this was the thing her and dad needed to complete our little family. Things changed when dad came back from being deployed when I was 10 things weren't the same anymore. What's the correct term to use PTSD yea that's it dad started drinking and suffering from nightmares which caused him to hurt mom. I know what your thinking she's a lawyer why didn't s she take you and leave and have a friend to take over the case because she loved daddy I mean she eventually took me and left and things got better by this time I had just turned 16. We didn't hear from daddy in years we were happy mom always made these cinnamon cookies family special recipe she promised to teach me one day how to make them. Unfortunately ones day never came, you see we thought everything was ok but boy was I wrong daddy found us about 2 weeks ago mom put up this big fight but it ended with her blood all over our loving home. Daddy knew were we was all along he came to talk mom into giving him another chance said that he missed his family. Things didn't go as planned so daddy slammed her head into the beautiful granite countertop the ones she loved so much and he fled the scene I stayed there and cried as momma turned cold and the police and ambulance rushed in I would never forget her blood being all over me. The next day after reeling the police what was wrong I went home and scrubbed the floor and cried while doing so our home no longer smelled like warm cinnamon. Hell home was no longer home with out mommy but she always prepared me for she gave me files about my real family had me a nice ass healthy bank account ready for me and had me my own car ready it's sad that she died a week before my 18th birthday. I grabbed everything I needed packed a bag and got ready for my road trip I had a realtor to come buy to look at the house since I was all momma had all of her assets were mine so when they found a buyer more money on top of the money that was in her bank account would be wired to me. Can you believe she left me with a law firm, 3 cars and another house on the mountains close to my real family. As I took this 6 and a half hour drive I felt numb no music played in the background just my thoughts running through my head before I knew it the 6 almost 7 hour drive was over I stopped at Walmart to pick up some stuff I felt like I would need and I bumped into some a lady with a cart full of shit and when our eyes met I felt like I knew her all of my 17 1/2 years of life I shook the feeling off got what I needed and headed to my new motherless home. I made me a quick short dinner and looked over the files momma left me and learned that my real family owned a protection business. That made me feel some type of way mom knew about it why didn't she hire them to protect us and maybe she would still be alive. Damn I really miss her the only thing I like about this mountain on the hill is that there was wax warmers everywhere and guess what the smelled like cinnamon I cried myself to sleep that night with my face buried in her favorite shirt that had her favorite perfume on it.
