(Quinn POV)
It's been six days since we went shopping. Sam and Austin just finished doing my room. It looks really nice. Sam says that after we put my clothes and toys there, we will go buy books and crayons and coloring books. Sam is amazing, he buys me so many things and gives me food. I really like Sam. I told him that and he smiled and said he likes me too. A lot.
Austin isn't as scary now. He is really nice and sometimes stays at the house with me when Sam goes somewhere. Sam told me to call the house 'home' but I don't know why.
Right now, Sam and Austin are putting my clothes in the wardrobe that Sam bought and I'm bringing my toys to the cupboard.
