God they're so annoying! Crowding round me like a lost puppy!

I take a deep breath, claustrophobia is a huge fear of mine, when I hear a knock on the door

'Can I not have five minutes!? Please!?' I say angrily

I open the door and Tracy's stood there holding my jacket

'You left this downstairs' she says

I take it from her and go back to unpacking

She lingers before letting out a sigh and leaving the room

I need to stop pushing people away

'Tracy wait!' I say but she doesn't hear me  or pretends not too

TRACYS POV

I really want to help this girl, I don't know why. I've only just met her. I go into the living room with the others and sit down

'So what do you think of the new girl?' I ask

'I like her' Tee says smiling

'Yeah me too' Lily says

'She seems nice' Toby says

'Yeah she's alright she'll fit right in' Liam says

Carmen rolls her eyes before leaving the room

'What's gotten into her today?' I ask Lily

'Opal wasn't very nice to her, she shoved into her and pushed her out the way so she could get in here' Lily says

'I'll talk to her. Thanks Lil' I say before leaving and going up to Opals room, I go to knock the door but I remember that whenever I was upset I'd just want to be alone

So I leave her alone. 

I feel for her, I just wish I knew how to help her

I head back downstairs and go to speak to Mike

'Hey Tracy' he says smiling

'Hiya' I say rooting through the drawers

'Where's Opals file?' I ask

'New residents drawer. First rule of a good careworker, know your kids' he says smiling

He leaves the office and I sit down placing the file on the desk I open it and start reading
