so I'm not going to start this out like every other story. I'm Vanessa, I'm 16, I live in a foster home. I'm on my way to a new one right now. I don't like being transferred to a different house every month. So hopefully these people will adopt me. I know they have a little girl named Naveah. Cassie, "foster mom" is so sweet and she's only 25. And her husband, Rick, is only 27. I don't know why they want to foster me.

We pulled up at a small house, looks about three bedrooms or so. I grab my bags, only a few because of what happened, and walked up to the door and rang the bell. I waited for about three minutes before Rick came to the door. He had coal black hair and bright blue eyes. "Hello, you must be Vanessa?" "Yeah, that's me." I said in a nonchalant tone. "okay come on in and I'll show you around." I walked in behind Rick. I followed him down a small hallway to the living room which just looked modern, white walks and tan furniture. Then we walked in the next room, it being the dining room, had a cute little table for five.  Next was the kitchen, it was a normal kitchen not much to tell. Then he lead me to the half bathroom, normal. "This house is so normal" I thought. He lead me up the brown carpeted stairs. "This will be your room," he stated as he pointed to the end of the hallway, " this is my and Cassie's room, and Neveah's room is right by ours so don't worry about hearing her cry." "Alright, can I go put my things in the room I'll be staying in?" "Vanessa that is your room, after a month we can and will adopt you." He stated. "But you don't even know how I act.' "Sweetie we know you're a good kid. We can handle you." He said and kissed my forehead. okay then?. "I'll go to my room now." He nodded and walked back down stairs. I started walking to my room, nervous. I don't want it to be all pink and girly that's not me. I opened the plain white door, note to self need to decorate that. I looked in and thank goodness! its white, which hopefully I can paint one day. There's a beautiful black leather bed, a desk, dresser, night stands on each side of the bed. Wow. I really like this place already. There's two doors, I opened one to find a vanity in the back with clothes, shoes, makeup and bags! They are gonna spoil me. I walk back out and lay my duffle bag and backpack on my bed. and go to the other door. I opened it and it was my own bathroom! Wow. I can't stop smiling. I go back in my room to unpack. I start with my duffle bag which has underwear, sweatpants, hoodies, t-shirts and socks. I put that stuff in my dresser and throw my duffle bag in the corner of my closet. and start unpacking my backpack. it only had some pictures, some notebooks and some of my parents things. I walked to the desk and pulled out the drawer and screamed in excitement! There was an iPhone 5s, apple laptop and a slip of paper that said the apple desktop and my TV would be in tomorrow. On my goodness! I hadn't noticed that Cassie and Rick ran up here when I screamed. "oh sorry! I just saw the gifts, wow. thank you so much!" I ran and hugged them both. " you're welcome sweetie, dinner will be ready in an hour come down if you feel up to it." I nodded and they left and shut the door! I picked up my iPhone and started it up. Wow. I've never had a phone of my own. I set everything and downloaded a bunch of apps; instagram, Facebook, twitter, wattpad, and a music downloader. I started downloading all my favorite music. I made a Facebook and all. It was so odd to have social media. I opened the apple laptop and started it up. I'm so happy I can't stop smiling. is that bad?  Hmm.. "Vanessa! Dinner!" I shut my laptop, hopped off my bed and left my laptop and phone on it. I put my hair up in a lose pony tail. and ran down stairs. After dinner I went up and saw Neveah sleeping in her crib in her pink room. ew too much pink. She's so beautiful at 3 months old.
