When it comes to bad days this is the worst one. Wait sorry I'm layla sue Rankin, I'm 8 but I don't look like it with how small I am. I have dirty blond almost brown short hair, I'm very scarcastic at times, and plane fun to be around. At least before I had to go to the adoption center. Now you know who I am on with the story.

On the way home from my friend Lily's birthday party, my parents were fighting so much. I was trying to stop them but it didn't happen because they were to inthused in it to notice me. Tell my dad finally shut me up by smacking me.

"Shush up layla your not part of this!"

I sat back down in the back seat and watched, the fighting just kept going didn't stop. I didn't do anything to stop it after being hit by my dad my cheek really burns now! After awhile of my parents fighting all went black I couldn't remember what happened. When I woke up I was all connected to different machines. I was guessing I was in the hospital. The nurse was in there when I woke up I turned my head a little which hurt "uh . . . ."

The nurse said "Easy little one!"

"Why am I in . . . ."

"You go into a wreck with your parents . . . ."

"Are my parents ok?"

"No sorry layla their gone they died right when we got there!"

I started to cry and the nurse pulled me into a soft hug. After the nurse left me alone I looked down at myself I have a cast on my right arm, and left leg. A brace around my left wrist, right knee, ankle, and around my ribs. I was in and out when I first woke up mostly, because my sight was going blurry every once and awhile which made me dizzy and pass out. After I got a little better a police man came in and asked me a couple questions about what happened.

I didn't know what happened so I couldn't awnser the questions. After that guy left a lady that looked almost how old my mom was, came in she was a adoption center owner. At first I forgot my parents were dead. I couldn't get it in my head their gone. But after it remembered that I signed a paper that signed me into the adoption center, because I don't have anymore family that's alive and wants me. After I healed up enough my leg that was broken was healed but my arm, wrist, ankle and knee wasn't. I got picked up by Mrs landson from the adoption center. When we got to the center I was scared to go in but I did. I made friends with most of them, but Justin and Catherine they kept telling me that I'm a burden. I was in a room with two girls I became friends with right away Jaz, and Haley. They helped me unload my stuff from my house. I picked up a photo that had me my mom and dad in it out of my bag and I started to cry. I tried to hide my crying, but it didn't work to well I soon got engulfed in a hug from both the girls.

"Thanks I needed this Jaz and hay!"

Jas said "anytime . . . . I'm guessing that's your parents?"

"Yep that's them!"

Haley said "They look nice . . . ."

"Yeah they were (I said the rest in my mind as I kept unloading) I loved them so much . . . . why did they have to leave me?"
