Hi my name is River, I'm a boy and already in highschool, 17 years old, my birthday is on June 7,20XX. Today's the day I tell my story, I didn't have the guts to tell this story but hey I'm doing it right now, telling my story to alot of people that I don't know and haven't met.

My story began 12 years ago when I was just 5 years old. I lost my family in a car crash, my mother, my father, and my older brother they were going out to pick something up, I don't know what it is they say it's a secret and that i should never know, they left me with the babysitter Melissa. It was my first time having a babysitter I thought she was gonna be nice and caring, but I was wrong she was the complete opposite, she would order me around and pick on me just for fun. But when we heard the news the my family was in a car crash she didn't looked surprised instead she stared into the t.v screen, chuckled a bit and then grinned like a crazy person. There was something wrong with her when she saw the news, it's like she alredy knew what happened to them, her phone rang and she got up answered it in the kitchen, I followed because I wanna know what she is talking about on the phone and who was she talkimg with. when she got into the kitchen i stood outside and listened to their conversation "You did a good job on executing the Rover Family" she said "I'll give you the money tomorrow morning at the park nereby" I heard her saying about money and the park nereby, the park there was abandoned and off limits to anyone and who ever trespassed will be sent to jail no hesitation, I thought to myself why and what is she going to do with the money and the park? ' so I decided that I would go to the park and investigate. When I got to the park I saw Melissa with a guy or a girl wearing pants and a hoodie the hoodie was covering his or her face and when he or she turned around to my direction I just saw his or her eyes he or she was wearing a black mask, I couldn't see what color was the eyes, but I knew that he saw me because he walking towards my direction so I jumped out and ran out of the park thru the gate I don't know how he or she knew that I was hiding in the bushes but it scared me so I ran as fast as I can and got to my uncle Joe's house and asked him if he could take care of me because my family wasn't here anymore, I thought he would say no bu to my surprise he said "yes."

My uncle didn't like me that much, I don't know why but It surprised me when he said yes, I thought he would probably say no because he already has a family to feed and with me around I'm just a burden to them. He accepted me and told me to go in, he showed me where my new room will be and gave me some clothes and told ne to go down for dinner later.

6 years passed and I was 11 years old I was still living with my uncle and I didn't told him about Melissa my old babysitter. I grew fond of my uncles kids and wife, they were all so nice to me and wished I could pay them back for their kindness, but, that kindness didn't last long. One day at March my uncle told us some bad news he said we were running out of money and figured we were going bankrupt because there were just too many mouths to feed, they didn't know what to do, they thought of getting rid of me and their children but they wouldn't do that, right? but unfortunately they did, they said we should pack our bags and pack everything that we needed, we didn't know where we were going, but they just insisted, we packed our bags, got out of the house, went into the van and we drove off, they said that we should rest first because it was a long road ahead of us, so we did. When the car stopped my uncle and his wife woke us up and told us to get out and get our things, we said "ok" and went out of the car to grab our stuff without questioning them about why and where we are. We got our stuff and looked around, and infront of us was this huge building that looked like an orphanage or a school, it looked like both, we walked into the building and went inside, it looked nice and cozy, the three of us thought this is where we are going to stay for a bit and that rhis is our destination, my uncle and his wife still didn't told us where we are and what are we doing here, they were talking to the lady in the front desk and I thought 'Maybe they are just talking about the room we are staying in' I thought about that because they were talking with her for a long period of time. When they finished the lady called out for someone, 'Maybe she's calling for some help'I thought and I was right, a guy came into the building and helped us with our bags and showed us to our rooms, my uncle and auntie didn't come along and thought 'maybe we're in separate rooms' when we finally got to our room we opened the door and toour surprise there were other kids and a lot of beds inside, wr asked the guy that helped us what is this place he answered "This is an orphanage, your parents sold you three for a lot of money to live."
