•Chapter 3

Later that night, me and my Mama had gotten our bags in and had gotten ready for bed.

I had changed into a pair of gray jogging pants and my hair was up in a messy bun. But I till had the same shirt on (let's just say I really like this shirt).

"The moving truck will be here tomorrow morning. You need to find something to do when they get here. I won't have you in their way." Mama exclaims.

I nod, taking another bite of my Mac N' Cheese. Its always been my favorite food.

Since we didn't have any of our furniture here yet, we were staying at one of my Mamas friends houses. Her name was Gina. But I was gave a very strict rule to call her Mrs. Gina. We were going over there after we eat. I was sitting on the counter with my legs folded.

"Also, school will begin this Wednesday. You will need to get your supplies. It's public school, so I don't need you getting in any trouble." Mama says strictly.

"Public School?"

"Yes."

"But why?" I whine.

"You need to get in the habit of a regular life."

I roll my eyes and don't carry the subject any further. "When are we leaving for this woman's house?" I ask, setting my plate in the sink and pushing myself off the counter.

"Since your done eating, now." She smiles. I give her a fake smile back, "Hold on and let me get my bracelets." I say, running up the stairs.

I slowly find my room and grab my bracelets off the bare mattress, slipping them all on my wrists. I run back down the stairs.

"Ready?" Mama asks.

"Yup." I pop the p and she opens the door. I slip on my camouflage flats.

I follow Mama down the drive way, pulling out my phone. I get on Instagram and notice a few people.

"Introduce yourself." Mama breaks me out of my stare at the screen. I look up at her, "Ma'am?" She nudges me and nods in front of her. I look up at a woman and man standing in a doorway.

"Oh- Um, hi. I'm Shailee Carter. Nice to meet you." I smile brightly, holding my hand out. The woman shakes it, then the man.

"Nice to meet you too Shailee, I'm Gina and this Is my husband William." I smile up at them, locking my phone and sticking it in my front pocket.

"We'll come in. Come in." Mr. William steps out of the way, as does his wife.

Mama pushes me forward and now I'm in their house!

Yay.. Note my sarcasm.

"Shailee, I have two boys, one of them is your age. Why don't you go talk to them. Make some friends." Mrs. Gina smiles brightly, pointing down a hallway.

"Yes Ma'am." I nod.

"The last door on the left." She instructs.

"Thank you Mrs. Gina." I smile, pulling my phone back out and walking down the hallway.

I go to the door she instructed and knock lightly, pushing it open. One of the two boys I saw earlier were in there, then there was another one. The lights were off. The only light in the room came from a computer screen. Both the boys were turned to me.

"Um. Hi." I say, waving my hand.

The boy at the computer turns back around. "Okay guys, it looks like I have a visitor. So hold on for about 5 minutes and then I'll continue!" He says, shutting off a camera at the top of the screen.
