Learning to love myself (A Josh Hutcherson FanFic)

Chapter 2

Elizabeth's P.O.V

All I remember is hearing my father call my name as we left in a car. Nearly, as soon as we started moving I wondered what was to become of me, but this just made me sleepy.

I guess I should introduce myself more formally. My name is Elizabeth James, I live in Shepparton, Victoria, Australia and I used to live with my abusive father. I am 16 years old and my father became an alcoholic when I was 6. My mum died in a car crash when my father became an alcoholic.

Well that's me.....

We arrived at a giant building and the child services worker told me to go in and he would follow me in a few moments.

I walked through the giant, white doors, expecting to find another man to help me, but there wasn't, just a nicely dressed receptionist.

"How can I help you?" asked the receptionist, in a very fake tone.

"Well, I kind of just was... uh... taken from my father and ummm... I need some help," I stumbled, quite awkwardly.

"Ok, I will put you on the list for adoption. Name?"

"Elizabeth James."

"Ok, you're all ready for adoption!"
