Adopted by Zoella

Orphan (Chapter 1)

I'm Gemma I was 11 when this began. I have blonde hair and blue eyes. Here's how it happened.

"Hey honey how's the pizza?" My mum asked me.
"Great" I said between huge bites.
"You really are a one arent you!" She said
I giggled.
There was a knock at the door.
BAM BAM
My mum went to answer it.
"MAX!" She screamed my dad's name.
My dad left me when I was 3. Why was he here? I walked to the door. No mum. No dad. Just... blood. I took my phone and dialed 999.
"What emergency service do you require?" I heard a voice
"Police" I hesitated
"Hello?" A female voice spoke
"I'm 11, I'm Gemma, my dad left when I was three and he showed up and I was in the dining room and I heard my mum scream his name then I walked to the door and theres loads of blood" I rushed
"Its okay, whats your adress?"
I told them my adress. Everything was bad. They assumed my mum was kidnapped so while they investigated I was sent to an orphanage.
I entered. It wasnt like the movies. It was very casual.
"Hello" A perky 30 (ish) year old said to me.
"Hi" I said gloomily
"C'mon let's get to your room" She said
We walked up what seemed like thousands of steps. She asked if I had anything. I simply replied that I was on my period. She brought me to a room with two girls : Brooklyn and Angie. They were new orphans too.
"Hey" Brooklyn said
"Heyyy" Angie said
"Hiya I'm gemma" I spoke, trying to sound enthusiastic.
"Im Brooklyn, call me Brooke"
"Im Angie"
I put my bag on my bed, putting nothing away at all. Brooke saw the pads. OMG I was so embarrased.
"I'm on 'it' too, dont be embarrased" She reassured me. They seemed nice, maybe this wouldn't be so bad. I didnt talk to them very much in my first week, just occasionally.
On the start of my second week I was scrolling through Twitter when I saw:
