I was taking the path to the forest again. I was feeling happy that I got to see my new friend again.
Tartarus. What a weird name. What were his parents thinking when they gave him that name?
A rustle on the other side of the pathway caught my attention. I wonder if it was a bunny. Tartarus said that he is going to get me a bunny. I haven't told mom that I wanted one. I know they would get it for me but I was shy of asking them things.
I know they love me but I was not part of their real family. I felt the familiar clenching in my heart when I thought of the Smith's.
I love them to pieces. I would give anything just to be a part of theirs. But then again, even if I write tons of letters to Santa that will never happen.
Aaaahhhh….
