Franny's P.O.V.

My life hasn't been a sweet slice of apple pie,
my life has been a sour rotten apple.
My first painful goodbye was the worst, it was the first time
I had that feeling of, sadness. And it sure as h*ll wouldn't
be the last. I was seven at the time, all cheerful
and pain free, but then January 24^th 2003 came.
Me and mom lived in a suburb in Oregon, my dad was
overseas in the marines.
It was that knock on the door no one wanted to get when you
have a loved one over seas in the army.
Someone knocked on the door and mom opened it,
I remember hiding behind her leg to only see, a man in a
stiff black uniform, with a sorrowful look on his
wrinkled face, the man said something
no child with a parent overseas in the army wanted to hear.
"I'm sorry Mrs. Baker to inform you,
that your husband Colonel Bakers has died in action
defending our freedom, may is soul rest in peace."

I sighed as I sat down at one of the 20 dinner tables.
"Hey sweet cheaks!" my aunt said sitting beside me.
My aunt owned the orphanage so she
kindly took me in when I had no one.
"Hey Aunt Ruth!" I said hugging her, she smelled like
vanilla and spice.
"Well how is the dinner?" Aunt Ruth said as I pushed my peas
around my plastic plate.
"It's alright" I said lying, I hated when we had peas for dinner.
"How is that old barn of mine holding together?" she said
chuckling, her and my Uncle Brian own both the orphanage
and the barn, the barn is for money when they
teach lessons, she also uses it to keep the childrens' minds
off their past, or family.
"It's doing just fine, me and Nissy are helping there
everyday after school!" I said cheerfully, I loved horses.
They where the only beings that could make me smile,
except for my friends, what little I had.
"That's good baby cakes! I better go help a new child
get settled in!"
she said kissing my cheak.
I whiped my cheak, turning to see Nissy flirting with the new
guy aunt Ruth was telling me about,
he was hot, too hot to be in a orphanage.
I saw him and Nissy walk over here and I spun my head back
to my plate.
"Hey Franny! This is Sawyer!" Nissy said sitting infront of me,
she had a smitten look on her face, I chuckled eating my
squash.
"Hi Franny, I'm Sawyer." Sawyer said holding his hand out,
I shook his hand and he sat on the other side of me.
I looked at Nissy, her cheaks where beat red.
I mouthed 'sorry' and she shook her head desperately.
"Well Sawyer! How old are you?" I said trying to change the subject
between me and Nissy. "I'm 15" Sawyer said, his rather deep voice startled me.
I nodded as Nissy struck for a flirt sesh,
"Me too! So where are you from?" Nissy said twirling her
hair around her finger. "I'm from Longview."
Sawyer stated, this was the only orphanage in all of Oregon.
"Wow! That's so far away from here!" Nissy said smiling at him flirtaciously,
Sawyer rolled his eyes.
As we said goodbye to Sawyer we headed up to our room,
"He kinda dissed you Nissy!" Cameron said boldly, maybe a little too
boldly. "I know... ugh!" Nissy said biting her lip,
she was mad that once in her life she got rejected.
That must feel awesome,
since I get rejected every day of my life...
