___________________________________________________________________________
Still in 2008, I developed friendships with people my age. Being younger, I had a naturally kind and innocent attitude about me. I never cussed much, nor was I very educated in that area. My life at that time revolved mostly around family. I moved through a series of families, going to the regular “adoption” events to find parents. Around the beginning of 2009, I met my first sister, who I like to call “Chiba.” We were both adopted by someone (choosing to remain Anonymous). We came to live in her house as her daughters. The house had a little blue block as a shower, a tiny kitchen and sitting area, and we each had our own bedrooms. It was there that I was a baby, and mom and her took care of me. I remember all the things the three of us did together. We went to the beach, sis took me to school, and when mom was gone sis would feed me and play with me.
I grew up (in pico) to three years old, and my sister and I were introduced to our aunt (anonymous), who would later become a threatening piece to our life together. One day around the middle of 2009, my sister and I came home to our mom's house, having just logged on. It was here
we spent most of our online time. As soon as we were in mom's house, we saw that our Aunt was online. Sis decided that we would go to see her. So we went. When we arrived and ran up to our aunt screaming “hey, hi!”, Aunt didn't have much to say to us. “Who are you?” She snapped, the second we arrived. “We're ****'s kids,” we had told her. She responded with a “Oh.” Then told us the news. “***** has new kids. She got tired of you guys.” She said, then quickly kicked us from the room. We returned to mom's house, not believing her. It was then we realized we had been removed from mom's buddy list. I at first suspected an honest mistake, but sis wasn't buying it. “She doesn't want us anymore.” She said.
I sent many messages to our mother, demanding to find out what was going on. She finally messaged back angrily for me to leave her alone. As our mom wasn't on much, we still lived at her house, every night taking a shower on that little blue block. One day, the thing we had been dreading happened. Our mom came home while we were there. We zipped out of the room as quick as possible, before she could kick us. She followed us to sis's house, and there she told us off, then afterwords sent angry text and room messages demanding for us to stay away. We continued to live at the house, much to her dismay at our response messages, but she wasn't online enough to do something about it.
The reason that we stayed is that we knew no other place. I was under my sister's wing, and we continued to live. Again though, the dreaded thing happened. Mom returned home. She saw us instantly, and there we were kicked, and sent a flood of hateful messages. It was the last straw. We were kicked out, and we had nowhere to go. We would never return to the familiar house we had spent 4 months in. It was also the last straw for me when mom came to my house with Aunt, and they both angrily cussed me out, telling me that they hoped to never see me again, and that they thought I was an ugly 'noob.' After I had kicked them for the last time, I didn't see mom again for a very long time.
Above: The only picture I could find of my sis (when we were twins). I'm on the right (her eyebrows show a little and mine don't. Don't ask how I remember that. xD)
Sis and I stuck together, living in my little house and still receiving hate messages from our aunt and mother on occasion. One week, my sister did not get online; which was unusual for her. I had to go on without her that week, surrounding my time again on games and missions. Weeks passed, and my sister still didn't return. After a month and a half, I gave up waiting. I had it in my head that my sister had quit pico. With this, I grew up. My look changed, and I created my own “adoption” event. It was the end of 2009 when this change happened. It was then that I met southasiangirl, by the nickname “south.” She came to my adoption event, and we became immediate friends, and I became her mother.
South was a 'trouble kid,' running wild and getting into all the kinds of trouble she could think up. It was impossible to hang out with my friends with her around, she was vicious to them. On December 10, 2009, I made another adoption event to get a son, hoping a sibling would cool south down a bit. I met Prince Alex that day. He was dark-skinned and brown-eyed, and had a black buzz-cut. He was a baby, and south fell in love with him instantly, surprising me. She liked him a lot, and watched and took care of him when I was gone. They truly were like a real brother and sister, always looking out for one another.
When south was not there, however, I also developed a friendship with Alex He was so easy to talk to, and he was kind and compassionate. He had a good heart and a strong connection with god. In those first years, our relationship mostly revolved around my parenting of Alex and south, but as our friendship developed, I got to know Alexx; and he became a very close friend of mine; of whom I will never forget.
