Sam had kind of lost herself in thoughts running her fingers through his hair.  She was remembering Clive doing the same thing to her to keep her calm and make her feel better.  She had not let anyone touch her hair after he left, no even the people who ran the school.  She came out of her trance when he said something about being adopted and she thought maybe that was why she was drawn to them, because they both were adopted.<br/><br/>"That's why I call my parents by their names, if I don't get attached I cannot get hurt again.  That's why I am no friends with anyone, or have a boyfriend.  If I don't put myself out then no one can ripped my heart out."  Not that she had any of her heart left because her brother took it with him when he left.<br/><br/>She sighed a little when Erik moved to grabbed a photo album that he was keeping under the bed.  She started flipping through the book thinking about the things that Erik was saying to her.  They looked like a happy brother and sister growing up together and Sam started to tear up a little as she flipped through the pages.  She would never have photos like this of her brother, well except one.<br/><br/>The only photo she had of her brother was taken the day he left the orphanage.  It was actually taking a few hours before she was told he was even leaving.  She always carried it around in her purse.  Brenda tried to tell her to get rid of it that it was not good to dwell in the past, but Sam didn't care.  Brenda already forced her to give up her name, but she was not giving up the picture and when she turned 18 she was going to get her name changed back.<br/><br/>"If your parents are so open with their house, why don't you have any siblings?"  Sammy had just thought about that.  Most parents who open their homes to many kids, want to have many kids.<br/><br/>Sammy flipped through a couple more pages, "I believe that I would like to come over here more often, at least I will be out of the house and talking to someone other than myself and Roger."  Roger was a stuff bunny she had got when she was little and and kept it with her at all time.  He usually slept on her bed.  She picked the name Roger, because of some reason she couldn't remember.  But Roger was a common name.<br/><br/>Sam was glad when Erik decided to change the subject and talk about the nurse.  She never thought about the nurse's behavior.<br/><br/>"I guess I didn't think about it, but I am surprised she insisted that I come home with you instead of calling your parents.  I am no where sick."
