Adopted

Chapter 25

Nash's POV

It's been exactly a year today since Amanda died. We all gathered at the cemetery and placed flowers and anything we wanted to say. I still haven't read her diaries yet because everyte me I try to read them I can't because I get to emotional. Then we left. My mom took Hayes, and Skylynn out to lunch but I wanted to stay home. I took out Amanda's diaries and decided to read them. She wrote a lot about her old foster home. She wrote about how much she hated her foster parents. It wasn't until the very end that I found out why she hated them so much. They abused her. This is what she wrote:

January 1, 2014

Well my foster parents abused me again. This time was the worst. They hit, punched, and kicked me so hard I could barely move. I have bruises the size of softballs. I have to get out of here. I can't tell anyone about them abusing me because my foster mom threatened to kill me if I did. I hope somebody adopts me soon. If I die and those horrible people are still alive I went them to go to jail. Well this is all I have to write today so bye.

I have to get her foster parents in jail. That's what she would have wanted me to do. I went downstairs and waited for my mom to get home so I could tell her. When she finally got home I should her the diary and my idea and she said she would help me. We went to the police station and gave them the diary page.

"These people abused my adopted daughter. The need to go to jail." my mom said sternly.

"We will investigate this ma'am." the cop said taking the page.

"Okay thank you." my mother said leaving her phone number for the cop to call if they arrest her.

"Thanks mom." I said once we got in the car.

"Your welcome Nash and I know Amanda would be so proud of you getting those awful people in jail." my mom said patting me on the back.

"Thanks mom." I said.

*a month later*

Amanda's horrible foster parents are in jail now and I went to her grave and told her. I hope she is happy. I really miss her and I just wish I would have gone into her room and saved her life. I will never forgive myself for that. I just hope that Amanda is alright and she is proud of me for putting her foster parents in jail.

I was sitting at her grave with flowers I laid the flowers down against the gravestone.

"I love you so much Amanda." I said.

"Hey." someone said and I turned around and it was Aaron.

"Hey." I said.

"Can I have a minute with Amanda?" he asked.

"Yep." I said stepping away so Aaron could be alone.

Aaron's POV

I sat down on Amanda's grave.

"Hi Amanda. How are you doing? Good I hope. Well I just wanted to say I believe you. I know you would never cheat on me and I'm sorry I broke up with you." I said starting to cry. "I just wish I believed you then maybe you wouldn't have killed yourself. I will never forgive myself. Amanda, I just want you to know that I love you so much. I can't believe your gone. I still feel like you are here. I just hope your watching over me because I really need you to help me make the right choices. I should get going but just know I will never stop loving you Amanda." I said getting up and blowing a kiss towards the grave. "I love you." I said walking away.
