I stare at the cop while he says those dreaded words. I stare at him still thinking about what he said. "He's dead?" "Yes Juniper, he is dead. We don't know the exact time of death, but we do know that he died around midnight to three in the morning. We are sorry for your loss. Call the station if you have any questions." He says while walking back to his vehicle.
I close the door still in shock that he is actually dead. Before he started abusing me he was actually a somewhat good dad.
*flashback*
"Daddy! Daddy! Throw me up in the air again!" I scream towards my dad. He picks me up and throws me in the multiple times. He catches me and he holds me while we walk to the blanket up the hill where my mother is.
He sits me down my mom and sits down. My mother takes our food out of the picnic basket and passes it out to us. We eat our food in silence because we are so hungry!
We finish our food, put it the garbage and walk to our car.
I look at my parents and see how happy they are. If only they stayed that happy forever...
*end of flashback*
I'm not 18 yet, I have to go somewhere! Both parents are now gone. Where do I go? I have my Aunt Stacie and her husband Judson, but they live in South Africa. There also is Uncle Marcus, but he lives alone and probably couldn't support me as a guardian. There always is Aunt Katy, but she lives in Sydney,Australia! That's 7,500 miles away! I would leave everyone that I knew from here. It's not a lot but still.
I grab my phone and dial the number that the police officer gave me if I had any questions. It rings 4 times before someone answers.
"Officer Stevenson, state your name." "Juniper Bale, asking for officer Lombard please. "
"Officer Lombard, juniper?"
" Yes, may I ask you a question?"
"Of course you can! "
"Who am I going to live with because I'm still under the age of eighteen?" "You can decide on who you want to live with. They of course have to be related to them. But you can choose who. Do you have a preferred choice? "
"The only person that I can think of is my Aunt Katy. But she lives 7,500 miles away. The only other relative that could support me as a guardian would be my aunt Stacie. But she lives in south Africa. " "Okay, by the sound of it you will mostly be living with your aunt Katy. Is that alright with you? " "Yes, that's alright with me. "
"Okay, before you called me I set up an appointment with your child services officer. Her name is Mrs.Fundson, I'll email you her address and your appointment is at 1:30. Which is in 2 hours so you better get ready to leave. " "Okay sounds good. Thanks again officer Lombard. "
After I finish the call I hang up the phone and walk to my room to decide on what I'm wearing today. I look at my closet and decide on my light wash high waisted booty shorts, my white knit cardigan and my black lace spaghetti strap crop top. I wrap my thin brown belt over my curvy hips. I walk to my shoes and pick out my cat flats. I walk to my bathroom and grab my brush. I brush my hair and put it in a high ponytail letting my natural curl hang in the elastic. I put my foundation on just covering the places on my face that I need covering. I put a light brown eyeshadow covering my eyelid. I then apply my thin black eyeliner and my black mascara. I brush my teeth and walk out off the bathroom. I make myself a peanut butter sandwich and eat it while I'm walking to my 2014 Chevrolet cruze Lt.
I open my email and see the email from the officer with the address in it. I put it in my GPS and start driving to the location.
I get there after fifteen minutes of driving. I walk up to the door and open the door leading to her office. I walk up to her attendant and sign into their system on their computer.
"Juniper? " Mrs Fundson says. I walk up to her and sit by her. "Okay juniper, by the looks of it you will be living with your aunt Katy or your aunt Stacie. We have decided that you can decide on who you will live with. Have you decided? " "Yes, I have decided on living with my aunt Katy in Sydney Australia with her husband and their children. " "That's who I thought you were going to pick. Your aunt was notified and is ready for you to come. Pack up your things you are leaving tomorrow. "
