After some playful roughhousing, Ethan and Blair sat together on the edge of the bed.
Twelve years ago, when Scarlett brought Blair to this city, Blair was still very young. Ethan's mother took them in, and she enrolled Blair in the same kindergarten as Ethan.
It's worth mentioning that twelve years ago, Ethan also met Serena at that kindergarten, which is why he mentioned earlier that they were classmates.
Normally, kids like him and Blair should have been the easiest to get adopted. But back then, Ethan was dealing with severe psychological trauma that led to autism, and Blair had a heart condition that made doctors believe she wouldn't live past fourteen.
At the time, Blair wasn't as cheerful and lively as she is now. You could say it was just two lonely kids meeting, and nothing really happened between them.
