Now I found myself standing in front of a big BIG black Topkick truck. Like holy molly. I walked around it twice. "You can drive this? Wait you own this?" I ask in disbelief towards Lennox, who I now discovered was William.
William scratched the back of his neck with an awkward laugh. "Well... Technically Hide owns it" I now looked at Hide who was leaning on the driver's door with a plain expression.
Hide obviously always looks bored or is just a hard ass. I'm going to assume both. "You can call me Ron if you'd like" Hide, now Ron, claimed looking at his watch boredly. Wanting to leave hours ago.
"Okay...Ron" I test his name out plainly while hoping in the back and closing the door. Nerves jitter throughout my body and my hands shook while I buckled my self in.
I looked out the glass window as Hide drove off once William got in. Now I was thinking about how the hell I got to where I am now.
I was actively avoiding being adopted. To be adopted so suddenly was a shock to the system and now I wondered what this meant for me. What does it mean for me to be Adopted?
It was a quiet ride, but a nice quiet, not the awkward quiet. Which I could happily appreciate. Sighing to myself I watched the scenery zoom by, I started to day dream. Day dream about my old family, I frowned sadly at the memories of them.
"Hazel..." My head snapped to Will who looked at me concern, but quickly got to what he was saying now that I was listening. "So Annabelle can be hyper as I told you beforehand and Sarah is my-"
"Wife. All that jazz, yeah I know." I cut William off with an awkward shrug making him nod. Happy that I understand the whole family thing.
"We are here by the way." William stated awkwardly, making me lift the head off the window with a dumb look on my face. I hadn't realised I was so oblivious to the fact we weren't driving anymore.
Finally exiting the vehicle, my black Nike's were met with brown muddy ground. I guess this is what William called a drive-way.
Oh well that's what you expect when its the ending of winter. I turned with my garbage bag filled with my sentimental items hanging on my left shoulder- yes garbage bag. The adoption/foster system wasn't that great, but some kids were lucky to get a little backpack.
I pursed my lips and looked straight a head to be greeted by a two storey house. Well this is certaintly a change to the enviroment. It was a nice wooden country house with a lot of land...I was used to the City.
"Welcome to your new home kid" Ron spoke up, his voice deep but clear. The black haired man walked to the front step after patting me on the arm.
This made me assume he stays with the Lennox family. Maybe he was an uncle, but William didn't mention who Ron was. So this made me feel unsure.
I ended up walking with William to the front step. I'll be honest, I am quite nervous to meet the Lennox family, I am always nervous meeting new people. This is a nightmare.
It is probably because I am an Insecure person who keeps to herself. It explains everything. I have always been the loner, but I didn't take much notice to it. In reality I just didn't give a crap...
Actually I do, but that doesn't matter.
Will opened the front door slowly revealing what seemed to be a hallway that lead to a Kitchen. The inside of the house was absolutely beautiful, just like the outside of it.
Walking in slowly, I observed my surroundings. The air was filled with a Delicious smell, perhaps food from the Kitchen and oddly enough cinnamon.
I could easily feel the happy and good nature family they were... the aura was strong. It kinda reminded me of my own family...
A frown formed on my lips at that thought, but I kept walking through the house quietly. I could hear Will and Ron follow me swiftly as I explored the house like a lost puppy.
"So... What yo-" Will got cut off by a young girls squeal, "Daddy! You're Home!" That must be Annabelle.
Turning around I saw a beautiful blonde little girl jump into Williams arms. The child's speech happened to be very good. Which slightly surprised me for a four year old.
Will chuckled at his daughter and turned her around to face me. I awkwardly waved and now I felt out of place instantly. This felt like a mistake.
Annabelle's big blue eyes looked at me with curiosity, "Daddy, Who's that?", she pointed at me, squirming out of his grip and quickly running to me with a large grin.
I stood there frozen and stared at the child as if she was a monster. I swear Ron was failing to hide the amusement he felt, especially since he covered his mouth with his left hand. Will smiled at me and I forced a faint smiled back.
Smiling is something that I am not used to...didn't really have much to smile about I guess.
"That's your new older sister sweetheart" William told his daughter sweetly and quite proudly. I swallowed down the emotion that started to rise up within me.
Annabelle's head shot up at me in happiness and now she held onto my leg like no tomorrow. I held back the urge to fling her across the room with a flick of my leg. God I can't deal with this, I am just going to mess everything up.
In the corner of my eyesight, I saw an older woman who had Long straight blonde hair, she must be Sarah, my new 'mother'. Sarah seemed to be studying me, she leaned against the stair case that obviously lead up to the second floor.
"What's your Name?" Annabelle asked me curiously, finally she let go of my leg when doing so. This was one curious child. Annabelle reminded me so much of- yeah not going to bring that subject up.
Sighing I crouched to be eye level with kid. I needed to warm up to her some time sooner or later... okay this is going to be much harder than I thought it be.
"I'm...Hazel" Annabelle nodded and tried out the name herself, "Hwazel?" Laughing lightly, I shook my head.
"close enough." With that I got a large bright smile in response directed at me, followed by heart warming hug which took me by surprise. Ever so slowly I embraced her with a hug. We both let go at the same time.
"I'm Annabwel", She said slowly, she obviously had trouble saying people's names, herself's included, "Can I call you Anna?" She nodded frantically in agreeance to my question, before running off to watch a kid's show called, 'Peppa Pig'.
"She likes you" A soft voice spoke up. My head shot leftwards towards Sarah, I stood my full height when she walked over to me.
"I can tell that you are not used to being with loved one's. Correct?" She asked me gently knowing it could be a touchy subject for me and it defiantly was, but this motherly affection was even more scary to experience than the topic.
I nodded slowly, eyes shifting in every direction but hers. I could feel William and Ron watching so I avoided them as well. "Yes" I admitted slowly like it was a burdan to do so.
She put a hand on my shoulder and smiled brightly. My eyes snapped to her hand on my shoulder where I could feel her warmth through my jacket.
"Hazel, You are always welcomed here. You are a Lennox now"
