I lived on the streets and made some friends there.
They had dared me to mockingly sing ABBA song titles.
So I did it.
"Knowing me knowing you".
" Angel eyes"
"Mamma Mia".
" dancing queen"
" Fernando"
" Sumner night city"
" Waterloo"
" money money Money"
" Honey honey"
" SOS"
" slipping through my fingers"
" Winner takes it all"
" eagle"
" take a chance on me"
" lay all your love on me"
" thank you for the music"
" Chiquita"
"Voulez vous"
" Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight".
All the sudden I saw Abba standing there I was at a loss for words.
They were going to confront me for mocking when in reality their songs were my safe place.
They came closer to me.
I started to sweat.
Benny.
Bjorn.
Anni-Frid.
Agnetha.
I'm Lindsay.
Look I'm so sorry I wasn't mocking your music to be a jerk it was just well I love it.
Relax we aren't disappointed.
You're really ABBA.
Wow that's so cool.
What are you doing on the cold streets?
Well I live here.
My parents died and I was put into an orphanage but they are mean so I escaped.
Well we have to bring you there.
I understand.
Agnetha wants to adopt you.
Thank you so much.
They took me to the orphanage and signed some papers.
I'm only six by the way.
I was legally their's now.
Unfortunately the jerks humiliated me for leaving but Frida and Agnetha weren't having it.
I felt safe with them.
