I look to see the tears in my mother's eyes as she walks forward, enveloping me in a hug. She runs her hands through my dyed, ugly brown hair, with sad eyes; "I'm so sorry."
I numbly nod.
"What name did you choose?"
"Louise Hale."
"We thought we would let you choose."
"Uh uh."
A long silence.
"Well, your dad is signing the last of the papers."

"Welcome to your new home," the overly perky worker says. "Inside you should find a couple grocery bags, and we will check on you in a week. If you see anything very strange or out of place, please inform us. Do not tell anyone about us and the program you are in."
"Anything else?"
"We're good."
My dad looks tired as he says the words, "We will call if we need you."

"Honey, I'm sorry, but you've missed enough of your education, you need to go to school!"
I roll my eyes at my mother as I slide onto a chair around the kitchen island. Grabbing an apple, I sigh. These past few years have been the worst in my life; first with my sister, Sophie disappearing and then the WP program we had to join, because of a reason (quoted from my parents) "you don't need to know right now."
The thing is, I do need to know, she was my twin sister.
But I guess you don't understand, just like everyone else.

I guess I should tell you about myself. My name was Alice Merrie Benson (well, before it was changed) I was originally a brunette with natural red highlights, bright blue eyes and a pale completion. My favorite activity is to sing and act.
Oh, and if you didn't catch on...
My sister is most likely dead.
