Chapter 28 Armen

-A/N-
What is this? Another chapter? But I thought you abandoned this book you haven't written in like, forever? It can't be.
Yes, I know, it has been a while. And I'm sorry. But I am not going to abandon this story. I've just been very busy and I have had other focuses. One day this book may be finished, but it may take a while and I'm sorry if it does. There is just so many things I want to do and get done and this book is not at the top of the book. I've just been having a hard time finding motivation to write. But I am NOT going to give up. There just may be a lot of time between chapters.
Okay so enough of that. I only just now got to really read through the comments on here and I just want to say thank you. There has been so much love and support for this book and I really appreciate it. For that reason I'm going to keep this book going. I'm glad you guys like it and I hope I meet your expectations, even if it takes a while. Everybody is just so supportive and nice and thank you. I honestly thing this book is trash, but you guys really like when I thought nobody would read it. So if you are reading this, thank you. It means the world to me.
Okay. I'm don't talking now. I'll let you have what you've been waiting for. I know it's short, but here is a chapter. I hope it can keep you guys entertained for a while.

I rushed around the house, making sure everything was in order. Everything was in its place, the house was clean, and Collin was happy snoozing away in his bed. Perfect. I checked the time. 8:55. The agent would be here any minute. I took a deep breathe and relaxed. This would go great.

I heard a knock on the door, the agent was here. I walked to the front door and opened it. There I saw a woman with bright, blonde hair that fell to her shoulders. She was smiling so I smiled back.

"Good morning," she said. "Are you Armen McGauphlin?"

"In the flesh," I answered. "You must be here for my home study."

"I sure am. My name is Lucy Reel. Are you ready?"

"Yes, please come in."

I allowed her in an we began by walking around the house. She looked around. We carefully walked by Collin so that we wouldn't disturb him. I assured myself that everything was okay. My home was suitable for a child. I could take great care of Mia. And Drake. And Grayson. It would be okay. We would be together again.

"I see you have an interest in video games," Mrs. Lucy Reel had said. She was addressing my office/recording studio.

"Oh yeah," I replied. "I like to make YouTube videos in my free time. Of course, when I'm not subbing at the school."

"What a nice hobby, you must keep so many kids entertained."

She looked at me and smiled, and I smiled back. This may be going well.

The rest of the house tour continued like that. She would ask a few questions, and I would honestly answer. Such as yes it was just me but sometimes friends visited. I only recently got Collin the cat and hoped he wouldn't cause any problems with allergies. Yes my YouTube career is my main focus, but subbing has to help pay the bills. I would love to take care of a child, my home is definitely too quiet. I just hoped that these were all the right answers.

After a while, we walked to the door, and I was shocked. Was it really over? We hadn't even had an interview.

"Well, Mr. McGauphlin," she started to say, "I think we are done here. I asked your interview questions during the tour so I could maybe save you some time. I think I'll be on my way."

"Okay," I replied. "Thank you for coming, it means a lot to me." I opened the door for her and Stephen took a step out. Though she turned around and looked at me.

"Thank you for considering taking a child into your lovely home. I think you'll be able to get one just fine. Expect a letter in the mail soon with your results. It will give you instructions for what to do from there."

As I closed the door I couldn't help from smiling. I am doing it. It's going to happen. I am going to get them. They are going to be safe with me. It's not going to be easy, but we will do it. Don't worry Drake, Grayson, and Mia. We are going to be okay. I wish they had been here. I wish I could tell them how well things were going.
