A New Family My name is T. and I'm from Houston, TX. I just recently got released from jail because the fact that I ran away. It was my 3rd time, but it was the most memorable.I found a family to live with, started to date their son and fell in love with all of them. One night, their son, his friend, and I got into a car wreck and got picked up by the harris county PD. My boyfriend has been locked up since. After that, I got to know the family more, forgetting that I was a runaway. I met up with some church people one day and started to hang out with them. That following Sunday, I went to church with them, against the family's wishes, and that's when I got picked up. Someone reconized my face and called me in. The family and my boyfriend were shocked, they had no idea. At first, they didn't believe it, but when they got the call from my mother, they believed. Their own daughter had run away for 3 years and they had started to love me as a daughter. I spent time in jail and now I am finally out. I haven't talked to them, but have written them. I had no idea they could get into the trouble I had almost got them into. To all who is reading, running away is not right, you eventually get caught. You can't run forever. |
