And while staying at her aunt's house is okay, it just isn't the same as being in her own space. \n \nSo when Laura finds a puppy, it seems like fate.

Maybe the dog will help them get better and things will finally go back to the way they should be. \n \nAfter all, how do you explain to others that you're technically a foster kid, even though you live with your aunt? And most importantly . . . how do you explain that you're not where you belong, and you just want to go home?\n
