New book prologue

This is the prologue for the book I'm working on, Nobody's Girl

You know that look?
Come on, yes you do.
It's the look all couples give each other. The one where they look at each other out of the corner of their eyes and smile slightly. The one that gives you the feeling they know something you don't. I never quite understood it, but that look
Changed. My. Life.
Let me explain.
I am an orphan. No mom, no dad.
Nothing.
I have been in three orphanages and eight foster homes, all by the time I was twelve.
All my life, I existed day to day with the agonizing knowledge that no one loved me.
Not one person.
When I was fourteen, I was dumped in orphanage number four after managing to simultaniously lose my foster father's job and almost kill their ten year old son with a shovel.
I told them it was an accident.
But nobody believes me.
Nobody.
I was in that orphanage for two years.
When I turned sixteen, I knew something had to change.
That's where "the look" comes in.
