Foster care
I couldn't tell the C.A.S worker Shimmer I'm pregnant because she might order to have the baby taken away from me and , when we all are in permanent homes I don't know they might send me to a different foster home then Gunslinger and HammerHead . I guess I could heal from being separatedfrom HammerHead but I couldn't be pregnant and lose Gunslinger not now. Then start showing and then I'd be in so much trouble and lose my baby to the C.A.S . I already think so negatively about foster homes because you hear so many negative real stories about it . So my baby can't go in the C.A.S system . No I just can't . But I can't kill my baby. I already love him or her. My world felt as if it were crashing down and around me. When the time came to be told about our foster homes I found out great news sorta. HammerHead and I and Gunslinger have to say good bye . Gunslinger an I are going to the same foster and HammerHead is going to a separate home. Sage will be 18 this spring so he had the option to be on his own. Agreed that possibly a year from now maybe he can take in his sister HammerHead .
During the time we'd been in temporary foster care we got to go shopping and pick out clothes and new shoes . I got some black convers shoes ,I picked out a baggy pair of cargo pants in a charcoal shade. Soon we were in the car on our way to our new foster homes Gunslingy and I were told that we're going to a nice lady who lives with her boys . Their a little bit younger than us. I insisted that I was able to get in the car by myself and I did. Gunslingy wanted to help me but I told him that I was able to do it. Shimmer insisted on helping me too. But I also refused her help as well. I wrote in my diary for some of the way as best I could. This is what I wrote :
Dear diary ,
Today is a very sad day . This is very sad because it's the day that I guess that we're no longer the GANG . HammerHead is going to a group home and Darkshadow is going to be in his own place and Gunslingy an I are going to a foster home . I don't want this Gwen lady to call me Pink , I hate the colour pink, the only shirt I had was pink and my hair was supposed to be a purple colour and it turned out pink. Why did my parents name me after a COLOUR !!!!!????????? I want this lady Gwen to call me PegLeg. Oh shit this is gonna be so screwed up . Us following the fucking rules and having someone to take care of us is going to be strange . Damn bro what's the matter with me? I have a fucking chance to be in a real family , not blood but a family . I know that I should be a fucking greatful bitch because im gettin outta that shit hole ,the Hangout was but it's gonna take some getting used to . The biggest thing was partying isn't going to happen but , it's better for me right now . we pulled up. Gunslinger an I got out of the car . HammerHead stayed . 💜~PegLeg ~ 💜 .
I had my backpack on . I had to admit that I was starting to feel anxious about meeting Gwen ,our foster mom and her kids. A tall women who had long brownish red hair and brown eyes that look like puppy eyes wearing a bright pink sweater and greenish spaghetti strap top with black tights answered the door . She must be Gwen . We went inside . Gwen showed us around the house and Shimmer made note of everything and they left us upstairs to unpack . The comforter blanket on my bed reminded me of the blanket I had years ago . Before Izzy died and I lived with my parents . One side had light lylock coloured flowers and the blanket was a light pink. On the other side it has Disney princesses Arora and Snowhite and Cinderella and flowers and pretty stars and butterflies and hearts my attention was grabbed by a small stand containing books. Mostly Goosebumps by R.L Stine . Odd their books I love to read mostly in school and at the library , yea their really easy to read but who gives a fuck? I like the stories. The books that we're goosebumps were:
'The scarecrow walks at midnight' ,'How to kill a monster' , 'Stay out of the basement ', 'Night of the living dummy 1,2 and 3,bride of the living dummy ', 'Deep trouble', ' return of the mummy', 'Attack of the mutant', 'revenge of the lawn gnomes and planet of the lawn gnomes', ' the haunted mask 2', ' Dr maniac will see you now', ' a nightmare on clown street', 'night in werewolf woods' ' the deadly exparements of Dr eek' , ' monster blood ', ' be careful what you wish for', 'a night in terror tower' . There were plenty more books not by R.L Stine . Titles include ' forever angels the golden angel' 'The twilight saga ,twilight , new moon , eclipse and breaking dawn' , 'never ending', ' the great wide sea', 'Gone', ' almost eden', ' freak the mighty ' , ' tex', ' the outsiders', ' double fudge ,super fudge ,fudge a mania ' , ' A gohst in the family '. I decided to sit on my bed and read. I started with the Goosebumps books. Then moved on I found other books. ' the hunger games catching fire' , ' a merical on maple hill'. Gunslinger interrupted me reading my books. Gunslinger asked if I'd read out loud for him to hear my story. I was reading the golden angel.
