Foster, Danielle [ereader for android TXT] 📗

Alex wanted to know why. Why did his parents abandon him? Why did all the Foster parents he learned to love leave him? And most of all, Why wasn't he loved?

Alex tried so hard to fit in. He was at school after school. Home after home. Family after Family. But no one seemed to accept him.

Today was the day. The day Alex would be moved from the Foster home that he had grown to love. It was what he would say "the sickest foster home he had been to yet." The Simpsons let Alex do anything he wanted to unless it wasn't safe. He could go anywhere he wanted to. He could hang out with his friends. But there was one problem he didn't have any. He had only been in the Simpsons' foster home for 2 months, which some people would say was a long time for a foster child to stay in a home. Not for Alex. Alex had stayed in some foster homes for at most a year. It was now time to say good bye though to everyone he loved,Robbie, Madi, Taylor, and Austin. All his 2 month long brothers and sisters. He was crushed he had to say his last farewells to the Simpsons. This farewell was different than all the others. Alex wasn't just going to the movies and he would be back soon. This time he would be gone forever.

They moved a new child into the Simpsons' house so Alex had to go stay in Juvenile Hall for a couple of weeks. These weeks turned into Months. Nobody wanted him. His probation officer, Trent, called everyone. But, every single Foster home was full. Trent decided to go to one of Alex's old Foster homes and see if they would have him. So the Turners took Alex happily. Trent said that Alex would only be staying there for a couple of days, but as usual these days turned into weeks and weeks turned into months which turned into years. The Turners had no more foster room and they were prohibited to have Alex sleep anywhere else except for with the other Foster children unless Alex was their child.

The Turners couldn't take it anymore. They called up Trent and Alex immediately thought that it was bad news. When Trent came to the house the next morning, Alex was already packed. Trent noticed this and said to Alex two simple words, "Lets Go." These words broke Alex's heart as he stepped out the door. Alex noticed something strange Trent hadn't shut the door. Alex reached for the door knob to close it, but before he could Trent pushed it open more and stepped inside. Trent then said the two words Alex had always wanted to hear.
