I shivered at the thought: Social Services... Scary. There's no way they're going to drag me to some random family or lock me up in one of their group homes. Tiny cells that barely give you space to sit.... Anyways... I needed to get out of there now.

I'm fine, it'll be fine...

I shook my head. Stay focused on the present! I looked out the window of the bus, watching the scenery slowly shift from the city to a less densely populated area. So much more trees and less crowded streets. Ooh look a squirrel!

Wait this is my stop.
