Maddie was a orphan, she had a foster home that was alright enough to let her go to school. She definitely had a back story, her mother died of cancer, it left her dad depressed, he killed himself, and it was just her. Her mom told her before she was diagnosed that her dad wasn't really her dad, she had another. That made her believe that one day, he might just find her and love her just like her mother, but that's very unlikely. Unlike most cliché orphan stories, she wasn't abused, bullied, etc. She spent her day listening to music and daydreaming the impossible. She felt like one day she might find someone that will love her as much as she loved her mother, like a new family, she thought that they would find her and love her... she was right

Summer is in the foster care system and hates it a lot.She tries to run away but always ends up back at the place she hates the most. Every family she stayed with were all nice to her, but always ended up giving her back and said she was too 'Hard' to take care of. Every time a family brings her back, she feels less and less wanted. Everyone she loved brought her back..... Even her own parents didn't want her....

"Excuse me, are you alright?" A man with a black pony tail asked. It was my idol. Lin-Manuel Miranda. Taylor was abused. She was bullied. She was broken. And then she got adopted. By Lin-Manuel Miranda.

To belong is a verb that Ruth has barely ever experienced. Her parents gave her up, only nine years old. And as any nine-year-old would've done - she waited for them to come pick her up. She became a part of the fostering system. Jumping from state to state, and after two years Ruth realised that it wasn't going to happen. Living in New York City for the second time, 14 years old, in a home with a foster family who barely cared, only using her. The bruises on her body just added by each day that passed. The thoughts in her head making her do stuff Ruth couldn't control. Not allowed to bloom, a creative flower inside the seed. One day she fell - at the worst time. In front of Lin Manuel Miranda. Watch her go from Ruth - to Rue, a whole new girl. - Written during the years of 2017 to 2023. Finished on the 1st of March, 2023. [This is a fanfic that focuses on mental illness.
