Full Of Surprises

12 years later (Eillene)

I have a great life! I have a really diverse family. I live in a big house and go to a good school. I have a super cute bf and my best friends are so nice and I love them. I guess, I'd call myself a lucky girl.

Why?" I ask. "They said elderlies take up to much space," Esperanza says. Dang, I think. I have to get my grandparents out of this mad house. And I make a plan to.
