Legacy Chapter 1

'''“What?” Sophie Foster whispered. “We have no idea what this means,'' said Juji quietly. “Nobody has ever gotten anything like this before,'' Brisa stammered. Sophie was at the matchmaking headquarters, about to receive her first list. Except she wasn’t...matchable. Tears streamed down her face. Sophie had no idea how she was going to tell Grady and Edaline, her adoptive parents. And she also had no idea how she was going to tell Fitz. The thought of his face made her want to cry a million rivers.'''

'''“I...have to go.” Sophie murmured. Without looking at Juji and Brisa’s faces, she ran out of the room. Sophie ran directly out of the office. And when she got outside, she saw Grady and Edaline running after her. Without a word, she strangled them tight and cried. Grady pulled her closer, and Edaline whispered silent pleas to her over and over.'''

'''Sophie ran straight to her room when she got to Havenfield and threw herself on her big canopy bed. Then, a feeling of determination rushed through her, wiping all the sadness away. There was a soft knock on the door, and Sophie knew it was Edaline. Edaline opened the door quietly and strangled Sophie with a hug. “I’m ok Edaline '' Sophie whispered. But she stayed there, clinging on to her mom anyway. Finally, when Edaline pulled away, Sophie saw the tears in her eyes.'''

'''“Juji hailed me, and told me what happened’’ she said quietly. “Please don’t feel like you don’t need to talk to me. You’ll be surprised at how much I know about these things. It’s like when Jolie realized  that Brant was never going to be on her list ”, Edaline continued, wiping the tears away.'''

'''Sophie smiled sadly “ I’ll never feel like that. Thank you for telling me that, but I think I’m ok “. '''

'''Her mom looked startled and proud at the same time. “ Your an amazing, strong, beautiful girl Sophie. Don’t let something like this get to you. “'''

'''Sophie smiled again and nodded. And when Edaline left the room, she changed out of her clothes and fell into a dreamless sleep.'''
