A bruised heart Part II

And all this time, why did they not say anything?

“We were afraid that you’d be scared and unable to accept it.”

“If I couldn’t accept it, I would be like Seb from the moment we first met eight years ago.” I remembered the first day we met. I was in the bedroom of the research center, pressing my hands on the glass to watch the million-year-old sharks swim around my room. Dad said that we would be a family from now on. He put them in my care for as long as I lived.

I did not know what other people thought about meeting ferocious animals, but the feeling that I remembered was...

I fell in love with them...with all my heart.
