I hear David say, “just do what she says Nancy, it isn’t like you care about the kid anyway” I know reatest but there has to be a part of her that cares about me and wants me to be happy, doesn’t there?

“Whatever, when you rich people get tired of her don’t expect to send her back here to me,” I hear my mom scoff as she stomps to her bedroom

Looking over my room there isn’t much here that I can’t live without

“Katie you have had a rough night, I aht Too over so but that doesn’t mean the two of you won’t respect my rules Okay?”

“Kelli, thank you…for caring and for sticking up for me No one ever has really, other than Kai and Raven”

“I’ll get you soet your stuff out in the ”

“Are you sure this okay, I mean I don’t want to impose or cause any trouble?”
