What's this? A new story? While I have another one on going?
*GASP*
This has been stuck in my head for the longest time and I wanted to share it...
Hope ya'll like it!
My life sucks. No really it does. Look at it from my perspective. Come on, a little closer…a little more. That's it bud!
You see, my parents just passed away…boat sank. Tragic I know…don't get me wrong, I'm plenty sad! I just…didn't know them that well. You could say I grew up a bit spoilt. Yes, that means I'm rich. No, no! Don't go! I'm sorry…I could really use a friend...thank you.
So after my parents passed away and it came to reading their will, I got a bit of a slap to the face on my inheritance. I was the sole heir to the company and the family wealth so I didn't think much of it! Until they read the special clause where, if they died due to unforeseen circumstances, i.e. car crash, airplane crash, you get the idea, before I was 21, I'd be sent to go live with my father's long-time family friend till I was of age. BUT! There is a really big but to this. If at any moment I run away or do not comply, the money gets divided and sent to charities, the company would be divided and given to the other holders. Doesn't seem so bad does it? Well whoop-die-frikken-doo the place I'm staying in is an Amish society.
Do you see my problem? I grew up on technology and modern things! Now, I'm being forced to go live with stunted people; no electricity, no phones and no fun. I guess it's to teach me how to be humble. What? I'm plenty humble! I'm friendly with everyone! I'm fun and energetic! I love doing things and learning things!
Sighs.
Fine, I could stand to learn how to be more grateful. I just hope this will be a quick three years.
I looked up to the tall wooden gate. To the sides where high wooden walls stretching for miles upon miles. I guess it was now or never. I knocked on the smaller door sized cut out from the big door and a tall burly man opened it. He smiled wide and wiggled his fingers at me.
"Yoo-hoo! You must be Anna ya?" My eyes widened. Woo boy. This man was huge!
"Um, y…yes? Are you Oaken?" I asked gulping as I gripped the strap of my backpack. He nodded and showed me inside.
"We have been waiting for you ya? I am very sorry for your parents," he said resting a hand on my upper back almost covering it with his large paws.
"It's fine…they're in a better place now," I said and followed him through a small dirt road lined with tall grass. Not too long later we came up to a rather beautiful wooden house. He opened the door for me and inside greeted a bunch of people, all with the same yoo-hoo. They consisted of another big fellow, a smaller boy and three tiny females. I waved and smiled to them.
"Anna, this is my family, ya? Meet Lucas, Oliver, Julia, Klara and Vera,"
"Hello, nice meeting you all," I said and gripped my bag more.
"We have made you a room follow this way, ya?" Oaken said and I followed him to a small room. It had a single bed and a dresser. On the bed was some folded cloths.
"While here, you'll have to wear different cloths, ya? Those modern ones will not sit well with the others," he said and I nodded.
"I had done some research before coming and made not only to pack what was allowed. With that said I packed books, a toothbrush, hair ties and some pencils and paper. He left for me to get dressed and I was thankful that he gave me some pants and a shirt. I knew that women were made to wear dresses, but I was a special case. As female as I seemed, I had…and extra part…don't judge! I was born this way! I just hoped I wouldn't get in to trouble while here. I sighed and started to get dressed and I got to say, these fabrics were actually nice and soft, comfortable even. After dressing I packed out my bag before placing my modern cloths into it and placing them away in the bottom most drawer way in the back. Out of all the Amish places you got, this was one of the newer once. Instead of a few thousand people this was only a few hundred. I was glad for that, made it easier. There was a knock on my door.
"Anna the neighbours are here to say hello, ya?" Came Oakens's voice and I opened the door. I smiled as I tied my hair into two braids.
"Do I look okay?" I asked and he smiled nodding.
"Very beautiful," he said and I chuckled. Okay this wasn't so bad after all. I followed him to the living room where there now stood a man and a woman.
"Good to meet you sweety," the woman said and hugged me.
"My name is Gerda and this is my husband Kai," she said and he shook my hand smiling.
"Always nice to meet new young people," he said then waved to a rather tall blond dude.
"This is our son Kristoff," he grunted and stuck his hand out.
"Nice to meet you," he said and I shook his hand.
"Likewise," I smiled, he looked like a fun guy.
"And here comes our daughter," we looked to the side as a stunning blond walked in. Well not blond like Kristoff, more white. She looked rather annoyed. Uh oh.
"Anna, meet Elsa," they said and I held my hand out to her. She looked to it then way.
"Pleasure," she whispered and I frowned.
"Sure…" I said uncertain as I dropped my hand. I guess she's one of those girls, or just shy. Bummer her beauty doesn't reflect onto her personality. I was suddenly sent to the ground and got slobber all over my face.
"Sven!" I heard Kristoff yell and the big dog was pulled off of me.
"Sorry about that, he just likes people," I chuckled and stoop rubbing my face clean.
"Oh he's just a cutie!" I said and rubbed the big fluff ball all over. He barked and panted. I'd have guessed he was a mix between a husky and a German shepherd. The brown was a more dominant colour it seemed.
"He's beautiful," I said and smiled. This might not be so bad after all.
And there ya have it!
I'm not going to have a set time to publish chapters, I'm not crazy...I can hardly keep up with one...
But let me know what ya'll think!
Unnecessarily rude people will be ignored simple as that!
Don't like then don't read!
