Edward was a foster father. Lindy, Mira, and Candy were his foster daughters. Lindy was a runaway from another state who landed in the system here when she was picked up for shoplifting. After her time was served in a detention center she was placed in foster care since she refused to give any information about her family. She ran away from her first two foster homes and was given to Edward as a last resort. He was thought of as a hero for taking in the girls no one else wanted. Mira's father took off on her family when she was a baby. Her mother was serving a stretch in prision when i knew her. She too was thought of as a bad kid and was placed with Edward. Candy's story broke my heart most of all. She was from an upper middle class family. A spoiled pampered princess by all appearances. But, the truth was her father was fucking her and her sister both, and her mother knew all about it. So one day, Candy's big sister has enough of it and shoots both of their parents. Mom and dad dead, the girls are sent to seperate foster homes. But, Candy has a serious case of PTSD and wakes up screaming every night in creation. Which bought her a ticket to Edward's. And, i imagine if she lives still, she has even more to scream about now.
