Chapter 87: The Race

Adeline had a very wonderful time at the market with her half-siblings. They showed her around the marketplace, showed her various shops, and taught several things to her. They made her laugh and they even fed her, some of them fed her with their own hands.

This was the first time that she felt so happy to have been surrounded by so many siblings. She was not nervous, nor was she self-conscious about what they would think about her. She was able to truly enjoy herself.

She didn't want to admit it but, she didn't miss Nigel that much when she was with them. They were all being nice to her and were treating her as if they had always been close to her.

It made her wonder about a lot of missed-out possibilities. "If I had tried to talk with more of my half-siblings, then would I have had a close relationship with most of them? Just like I have with Nigel?"
