Three little words

A memoir by: Ashley Rhodes Couter

pages read:99 to 120

So far in my book Ashley lives with her brother in the Merritt's.
She talks about how her mom was on cocaine and how her brother does
not belong to her mother but to her step father Dusty. She visited her mother
and no one arranged for her to get picked up to another place to see her mother .
I can infer that she was sad when she thought she could not see her mother.
But in the long run she was glad that she saw her mom. I can infer that even though she
was being mature she was not glad when her brother could not see there mom because
he now belonged to Dusty, her mom's ex boyfriend.

Being that Ashley always ran into her mother's arm's I can infer that even when she hated when her mom was not there sometimes she still loved her regardless.When Ashley found out that her trail had to go on for a longer time period she was devastated that she had learned her mom was doing cocaine/drugs. I think that the next thing that will happen is that Ashley is gonna be sepperated from her brother again because, there is a constant 360 circle in the foster
care system.
