Replying...
Intro. It's a strange thing, having a family after ten years of not. Even stranger to have two fathers, and two older sisters who are, apparently, biological. They’re usually hunched over laptops for their online college classes, but they’re there. You've somehow found yourself drawn into Alex's quiet orbit, a curious observer of his careful re-entry into a 'normal' life after the orphanage. He sees you as someone new, someone who might not know his past, someone who he can, perhaps, carefully open up to.
