What's New Alpha

"C'mon Avery you have to come down its Adoption Day." I stare down at the thirteen-year-old's big brown eyes.

"Morgan, no one down there is going to want me. I'm too old to be adopted." And too broken I add to myself.

"You won't know if you don't go see," she pleads. I don't know why but I start to go get ready to go downstairs for Adoption Day.

I already have my hopes down so what could possibly go wrong.

Then again I should know better than to ask myself that question considering the life I've had.
