A/N: Okay real quick lemme just say that I read this back and oof, criiiinnnnngggggeeeeee!!!!!!!

Anyway, I'm going to stick to the theme because you guys liked this book the way it was...ish but I'm dialing back the cringe. Okie Dokie my squishies, let's get to the story.

^^^^

After the whole ordeal with Anthony, I decided that I was definitely not ready for school. I quickly gathered my stuff an left the built. 

On the walk back I decided to be upfront to my current foster parent about my feelings of school. Upon arrival, I went straight to my room and sat on my bed. I looked around the room and took in my surroundings. It was a real room, one fit for someone. You could walk in and just know that someone lived here, my old room wasn't like that, it was old and falling apart, it didn't have a desk or curtains, or even a bed at that. You would walk in and think nothing of a bedroom, maybe a storage room that had been emptied out, if even that.

Sitting by myself I got to thinking, some about my life now and some about before all of this, when I was young and with my real parents, it had been so long I could barely remember it, it all seems so faint now, but despite all of this there was something I never forgot, my moms, singing, she used to sing me this song before bed, I remember how it sounded but not the words. Why can't I remember the words? Wasn't it: 

All of the rose petals fall from me, 

No, wait, 

All of the rose petals fall for me?

 Yeah, I think, maybe. 

All of the rose petals fall for me,

And bring me from the land of misery,

Rose red, nose bled, clothes red stain,

They took me away from the sorrow and pain,

Sewed me up, 

Filled my cup,

Pulled me away and brought me up. 

It all came back to me so clearly, her voice rang perfectly in my ears, it was so beautiful, I remember thinking she was beautiful, but I can't remember her face, I wish I could just remember her face.

I thought for a few more hours an came to a conclusion. I'm going to try to find my parents, I need to know what happened and why.

My only question was where to start.
