=the lost=

=the girl stared out the window of the small car. she sighed. she looked down and saw the really only things that were truly hers. her small that had her only clothes, her brush and hair things, thooht brush, and her small box in her lap full of the small, but precios things that her parents gave her. the, un attactive lady looked back at the girl. "oh, lila, i am soo sorry about what happened at her old foster home. but our agency has found you a great one. we garuntee it it." the lady smiled. lila looked up and saw the lady had botocs. lila slummped in her seat. the lady looked back at the road. lila could smell the over powering smell of perfume. lila coughed. the lady turned around. "fine darling?" she asked. lila nodded, her eyes wide with fear. the lady took a sharp turn up a road. she turned on a road that had, desent, nice and cute house. lila bowed her head and looked at the picture resting in her hand. it showed, her sister and her wrapped in each others arms. they were only 2 when they were separated. lila wiped the tears away. the lila looked up and saw the lady had parked in a drive way. there stood a desent sized two story house. it was a light brown and had pretty bright flowers lining the bottom of the house, by the stairs and around the tree in the yard. it had a garage built in to it. lila felt the door open and the hot air rush iin to the cool car. "time to meet your new foster parent!" the lady cheered. lila slowly got out of the car got her things. she put her little memorie box in her back pack and started to nock on the door. a minute later, a pretty lady(mabye in her early 30's) opened the door. she had light carmal clored hair that went to her shoulders and bangs that swayed to one side of her face. she wa averge hieght and was skinny. she wore a light blue shirt with brown shorts. she waved hello. "hi lila. my name is amy. come in." she moved out of the door way. lila kept her head down and walked into the house. the lady that drove the car(hidei, a total wierdo) invited her self in side. "hi. i need you to sign some papers and i well be off." hiedi smiled her wicked, botocs smile. amy back a step or two away. hidei shoot the papers out of her hands and let amy sign them. "ok. good bye now. bye lila!" hidei luaghed. hidei walked out of the house and slammed the door behind her. lila stood by the steps. "you can go sit in the living room, we can talk. i want you know you since i well be your guardeen for sometime." amy said. she walked up to lila and patted her back. lila jumped when amy came toward her. "sorry. i had a bad experence with my old foster care family." lila muttered. amy nodded and took lila's things. "come on, i well show you your room." amy said. amyled lila trough the living room and kitchen. it was a pretty big. it was updaded. amy walked down a hallway and stopped by the second door to the left. "aren't you 11, right?" amy asked. lila nodded. amy opened the door and lila felt a little bit of joy. the room had blue walls and a green bed spread. it had big fluffy orange pillows and a white built in desk by the closet. on the white night stand was a orange lava lamp. there was a book shelf with tons of books on it by the dresser. it had cool abstarct art wark on the walls. "do you like it?" amy asked. lila sorta smiled. "this is the coolest room i have ever had out of the other 6 foster homes. one of my rooms was outside for 3 nights." lila awnsered. amy's jaw dropped. "outside?" amy repeated. "ya. i don't like to talk about that one. that lady was mean." lila responded. "well, amyways, i have a plan. first w we well go shopping to get you more clothes. you only have 3 shirts and 2 pears of shorts. then we can go get our hair done, get our nails done, then come home, play board games or do what you want." amy smiled. lila was in some pretty bad foster homes. lila promised herself she would show no expession to the foster parnets she would have. but, amy, lila sort liked amy. she had to wait to see really what she was like. "do you live here alone?" lila asked/ amy nodded. "why?" amy asked. "you look like you could have a husband right now." lila muttered.. amy smiled. "I do have a husband. but, he is in the army, so i sorta live alone. is is diplode to afcanistan for 1 year or longer. he is soo brave." amy sighed. lila looked up. amy's eyes showed fear and love. lila sighed. "well, lets get our shop on!" amy smiled. "oh, go out this way, through the garage. i hope you like pink, because i have a suprise." amy said. lila followed amy down stairs and they walked into the garage. " a bike." she walked over and jumped on the bike. "take it for a little ride." amy smiled. first, lila. lila bowed her head. "um....thanks." she muttered. amy nodded. "oh, i forgot something." amy jogged into the house. 4 minutes later she came out. "ok, now lets go lil-lila? where are you?" amy looked around the garage. "oh great, lila!" amy pleaded. amy walked outside and looked around. lila wasn't there. "no, this can't be happening." amy whimpered. amy put her head in her hands. she heard the squeak of a break. she loooked up. she saw lila riding her bike into the garage. "lila, you scared me out ofo my mind!" amy sighed. "sorry, i went for a ride." lila muttered. lila parked her bike in the garage. "what did you have to do inside?" lila asked softly. "i had to let toby in, my dog." amy awnsered. "what kind of dog is it?" lila said, her hopes rising. "a black lab." amy said. lila nodded. "can we take it for a walk after we shop, i can tell you about me. like, why i am in foster care." lila sighed. amy nodded. "that sounds great. now lets go." she opened her car and jumped in. "you have a comaro?" lila echoed. amy nodded. "jump in. we have alot to do!" amy laughed. lila slowly opened the door and got into the car. she shut the door and instantly, amy took off in the car. she took sharp turns and did hard breaks. finally, she said, "we are at the mall." lila sighed. amy got out of the car and started to walk. she saw lila was still in the car. amy sighed. she walked back to the car. she opened the door to lila's seat. "you know lila, i am trying to be nice, but you make it difficult. i try to give you things, but you bow your head and walk away. when i read about you in the thing, you seemed better than this." amy sighed. lila looked up. "well, i have always acted this way! i have always wanted my real family! not some person who wants me because of a stupid note!" lila really lookd up. her eyes were a very light blue. she had long brown hair that looked like it hadn't been combed for days. lila had a skinny, pretty face. she had dimples when she smiled and had a tint to her cheeks that made her look like she had blush on. amy's face had a sad experesion. "i... i just wanted.. wanted you to feel like you really had a home. in the note it talked about your old foster homes. i wanted you to feel like you were in the family, like you had one. not like a pet." amy sniffled. lila looked up slightly and saw a tear drop from amy's eyes.lila got out of the car and walked past amy. "amy, you know what, i swhould say i am sorry, but in my life, i am never the one to say that. it's either hidei or a different person from her company telling me sorry what happened at her old house, and things like that. it has never been my turn." lila sighed. amy turned around. "i want to try to be nice, but, it's like you don't even care." amy sighed. "well, to tell the ruth, i have had a horrible past. all of my foster care parents have been mean, some got kicked out of there house so we could live on the street and other house had holes in the cieling and the walls. one house was just 1 room. the bathroom had a curtain around it." lila awnsered. "well, i want to make you feel better." amy said loudly. "o.k, i am sorry, can we go and shop now?" lila asked. amy sorta nodded and started to walk toward the mall. lila slowed down and walked behind amy. amy had risen her head and was walking and looking like before. lila rubbed her hair. she hated her hair. it was very very wavy well it was curly. it went down a little past her bottom and had tangles everywhere on her head, under the top layer of hair and on the top, the size of fists mabye some bigger. she had no pony tails so her hair stauyed dowm. "can we go to the hair place first?" lila asked. amy looked back and nodded. "sure, i well let you do whatever you want with it." amy said, really seeing the lila was opening up. lila nodded her head iin thanks and cuaght up with amy right before they entered the huge, emormous mall. amy did a sharp turn to avoid a crowd in the mall. lila looked around bewildered and followed. amy walked fastly out of other peoples way, but making sure lila was at her side.=

=they reached the hair place in less then ten minutes. amy and lila were 2 of the 10 people there. luckly, the hair sore had 3 seats avalible. amy had checked in before and was already picking a seat. lila sat next to her. they talked while they waited for a hair dresser. "so lila, what do you want to do with your hair?" amy asked. lila took a deep breathe. "i want to have it light brown instead of my dark brown and i want it to go a little higher than my shoulders." she said. amy nodded. "sweet. i am just getting a trim. you can get a feather or 2 or as many as you want, or high lights." amy said, smoothing down a piece of hair that was sticking up. lila smiled and looked into the mirror. "can i get 2 feathers right here, can they be orange and green, that well look good with my new hair." lila said, excitment leaking into her voice. amy smile and nodded. "do whatever you want, just with your hair though." amy sorta laughed. lila looked at amy and smiled. "thank you." she whispered. amy turned from the mirror and looked at lila. "your welcome." she said, happiness slowly sparking in her eyes. lila turned to the mirror and saw the hair dresser walking up behind her. "hi amy, this must be lila." the women said, smiling. "hi grace and this is lila she wants to do something wit her hair today." gracie nodded and still smiling. she turned to look at lilas hair. when she saw it, her smile dropped. "do you want me to cut your hair to where?" the hair dresser asked lila, eyes wide. "where all the tangles stop, right above my shoulders. cut right above the last tangle." the hair dresser sighed in relief. "good because i would hate to pull your hair trying to comb those out and treat them." the hair dresser said. the hairdresser,gracie looked at amy. "and what would you like amy?" asked. "i just want a trim." amy said, smiling. gracie nodded and looked at lila. "would you like anything else?" she asked. lila nodded her head. "i would like to get my hair a shade lighter and have a orange and green feather right here." lila pionted to the spot on head. gracie nodded. "i well be right back amy, lila can you come with me to go wash your hair." gracie said, walking toward the back of the salon. lila looked at amy. "go ahead, its ok." amy said. lila got up and followed gracie to the back of the salon=
