Tyrique Jackson was just 5 years-old when he was placed into foster care. Now, he's living a rapper's paradise; unlimited women, unlimited drugs...

They say that being at the top is one of the loneliest places you can be; that no matter how many people you have surrounding you, it can feel like you're alone. Tyrique knows that feeling. Every night he goes to bed wondering why he's still here. Every day he wishes his life was someone else's, but why?

Maybe he has abandonment issues - at least that's what his therapist tells him. Shame he'll never listen.

43 parts Complete Mature
Life doesn't abide by the rules of a child. Sixteen-year-old Ramona knows this. She's seen it throughout her entire life, from the way she was treated by her birth parents to the way she was thrown around the foster system with nothing but her little brother, Mason, to hold onto. Every bruised cheek and broken bone has slowly shattered Ramona's trust in the system and any foster parent she's ever met. In the end, it's only Mason she can trust. Her life is dedicated to making his better, and focused solely on sheltering him from the pain of feeling as lonely as she is. That is, until Ramona gets news one day that may just uproot everything she's ever believed about her and Mason's situation. Everything is about change for Mason, all because of a man named Owen Parker. He wants to take the only thing that Ramona has ever truly loved. He wants to adopt her brother, and there is nothing she can do to stop him. Though after years of running and years of pain, Ramona knows just how badly Mason needs a home. It's a breath of fresh air for him, a family filled with love, and everything that Mason has never had. But then, what about Ramona? She's brotherless, parentless, and alone in a city that has never cared about her. She has to find a way to cope, and she has to find a way to forgive the man who took her little boy from her. But she can't cope, she can't forgive, and she can only bend so many times before she breaks. - - Warning: This story deals with mature content that may be difficult for some to read, such as self-harm, suicide, drug use, abuse, depression, anxiety, and sexual harassment. - - Highest Ranks: |#1| - adopted |#1| - fosterkid |#1| - fostercare |#1| - foster |#1| - suicideawareness |#1| - recovery |#1| - comingofage |#1| - mentalillness |#1| - strength |#2| - adoption

It's never easy being an artist. No matter what, you have to create. But Rue wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. The world didn't understand him. He didn't belong anywhere. But art? In the world of art, he was free and he was happy. Nothing felt better than to set his emotions free and simply create, without rules or restraints. He was fine, even alone, as long as he had art. Or at least he was, until he met him. Best ranking: #3 mentalhealth out of 56.4K stories #13 society out of 17.1K stories
