Part Two

I headed back to the Roomies house every day at 8am, so my friendships were starting to get stronger and stronger.   I thought it was best never to tell them about being homeless as I had fell in love with one of the housemates.   Every night after working a few hours and I would find a cosy spot where no-one would see and start dreaming about us being married and having kids.

I had to pluck up the courage as ask him out on a date.   The next day, I had made the decision to ask but as soon as I saw him I completely froze, and the words wouldn’t come out of my month. The days drifted on in the same way, so it became harder and harder to finally say I like you.  One night I had the best opportunity when they invited me to stay behind on a Friday and have a few drinks with them. After all they did have a big minibar in the house.   I was having a brilliant time as I had just found out from J that he felt the same way.   We talked and confessed everything together and decided we were going on date the following day.

He took me out to the local bar where we had our first kiss out on the balcony.   It was a beautiful spot and romantic although were totally obsessed with each other in the moment that we forgot to take to pictures to record the special occasion.   Later, I realized I couldn’t invite him home, so I asked if he would like to join me at my favourite spot at the back of Desert Bloom park in Oasis Springs where the views are awesome.   I was delighted when he said yes, and that made the night even more special.    Since my sweetheart, J Huntington III is my first relationship I had decided on taking things slowly for now to see how it goes.

Part One

So I found myself in the most depressing situation that no-one would like to be in, homeless with no family as parents dyed when I was young. I grew up in foster care but it’s now time for me to take control of my own destiny. So, I decided to keep all my experiences written in a diary that I would like to share with you.

The days and nights slowly drifted by, to keep entertained I visited several parks/gyms and lounge bars which helped keep me warm during the cold nights. This is where I met my good friend Summer playing chess in the park.

I eventually got the required skills to become a domestic helper by studying in the Library, so it was down to the local charity shop to get some clean clothes.

New clothes

The first house I knocked on was the BFF’s who let me in straight away.   I started chatting with them around the tele, so I was making progress creating new friendships.   I wanted to make some breakfast for everyone, so I headed to the fridge for some ingredients and started cooking.   This turned out to be a huge mistake as I was shouted at by everyone saying GET OUT OF MY HOUSE AT ONCE.   Great, two hours in and I’m fired.

Following on from my previous disaster, I had another chance with a different family the following day.   I learned from my experience yesterday not to cook but keep house tidy by hovering, taking trash out etc.   I had great opportunities to chat and get to know everyone a little better.   These were a group of students with similar ages to myself, so it was perfect.

My first day went incredible well so I was invited back again tomorrow.   I couldn’t believe it I landed myself a great way to make a little cash and have relationships that I could become great friends with later.  The Roomies were totally a different family.
