Chapitre 48: Party Starts

It wasn't long after everyone had taken their seat at the table before Samuel's father returned with the items his wife had requested for the birthday party. His initial expression upon entering the kitchen indicated that he had forgotten that Lena was going to be joining them that morning, but it was only for a brief second before his attention turned to his daughter Jessie whom he could tell wasn't thrilled about the stranger being with how closely she was sticking to her mother.

"Jessie, it's okay. There's nothing to be scared of, she's going to be family soon." He tried to reason with his daughter who seemed to hardly believe him more than she had her brother and mother. It didn't stop her from eating, but it was obvious by how quiet she was being that she was cautious of the princess still who was also being to feel uncomfortable after the meal had started and Sam's parents began asking questions about her.
