Chapter 1
Weird people came into our house today
They said me and my younger sister, Maggie have to go with them
Maggie didn’t want to
She clung to my leg the whole time we were being taken out
The weird people said they were taking us somewhere else
Somewhere Mom and Dad can’t find us
They said I was too young to deal with this and Maggie both
After all, I was only 8
The weird people, caretakers they were called
Those caretakers said we needed a new home
Apparently I wasn’t supposed to hear that
Whatever.
I held Maggie to my chest when these white and blue uniformed adults tried to take me away from her
I WON’T LET YOU I screamed
YOU CAN”T DO THIS I yelled
They don’t listen to me
These white and blue uniformed adults explained they were doctors and just wanted to help
I didn’t want that
After all, I was only 8
They pried me away from Maggie, saying she a got a new home
WIthout me.
I screamed and I screamed but those caretakers didn’t care
They said I needed therapy and serious help
MAGGIE I screamed
DON’T TAKE HER AWAY I yelled
The caretakers showed me Mike, a therapist
I didn’t like MIke
I liked Maggie
I wanted Maggie
After all, I was only 8
Looking back, from when I was 8
I had a miserable life
Maggie was taken from me at a young hand
It wasn’t fair.
But now I look at the quote and remember my life story.
After all, I was only 8
