Poppy

Poppy wandered in the parking lot of the pet shop stopping at every car to knock on the wind and scream "Mommy!?" She sat down next to the bike and started to cry. Mommy left me here alone. But just for a while because mommy needed to go get some thing... She'll be back any minute now! She tought trying to comfert her self. Deep down the toddler knew, she was alone. Her mother had been on drugs lately. She left her places often but today she wasn't coming back. Not today, not never. There were even times when her mother had left her places for two days in a row. Poppy lifted her head and screamed "MOMMY WHERE ARE YOU?" She put her head back down to her palms. How could her mother leave her here all alone...

Isabella

Isabella came to the pet store often to look at the little animals. She rode into the parking lot today with her horse Rocket. She rode him over to the bike racks and tied him up. She began to walke towards the store but stopped when she heard the sound of a crying child. She turned arounf and found a little girl sitting next to a bike. "Hello." She said bending down next to her. "Whats wrong?"

Poppy

Poppy looked up at the stranger and stared blankly at her. Mommy always told me not to talk to strangers.... She tought still looking at the stranger. But the second question made her blow up inside. "Mommy left me again!" She said bending up into a ball once more. "Mommy said she was going to go some were and to stay here untill she returned! B-but mommies not coming back!" She continued to cry. Her mother never took the car when she went places alone... But today she had taken it and left her.

Isabella

Isabella smiled "Your mommies probably in the pet shop here I'll help you find her." She reached a hand out hopping the young child would grab it and go with her.

Poppy

She looked back up at the lady who offered her a hand. Poppy too it and stood up her silvery eyes glowing. See she knows where mommy is she'll show me just wait and see! She stood and reached into the air and acted the action of grabbing some ones hand.

Isabella

Isabella wasn't sure where the childs mother was just that she couldn't stay there alone... "My names Isabella Seth. Whats your's?" Her voice was soft, sweet and soothing. Her hazel eyes looked right in to her's.

Poppy

Poppy stood up hugged her. "I'm Poppy Jade! My mommy is Roseta Jade!" She took her hand and began to lead her. "Mommies got brown hair with gold eyes!" She stopped at the entrance and looked up at Isabella.

Isabella

Isabella took the girl into the store and looked around for the girl the child had described. She found only one person in they way back, but she had green dyed hair. She turned back to the girl with sad eyes. "If you want... you can come live with us till we find her..." She smiled.

Poppy

Poppy began to cry. They hadn't found her mother in the store. Maybe she isn't coming back... Her face turned a rose red and tears began to fall down her cheeks. "If you want... you can come live with us till we find her..." She looked up and her face cleared. Maybe I can live with this nice lady instead of stinky mommy... She smiled "YES!" She jumped and ran to Isabella's side and clung to her. I wonder what her house is like... well I'm sure its better than the trailer mom had!" She walked out the store with the girl
