A boy version and family.

Start from the beginning
                                    

Wouldn't want her embarrassing us, do we?

Why do I feel like I'm forgetting something. Yeah, I am forgetting something. What is it?

Chocolate?

Nah.

Skittles?

Nope.

Ice cream?

No.

Yes.

Ice cream.

Oh pickles!! Clara. She must be worried sick. And, I didn't want to talk to a creepy person who looked like my family.

If they wanted me they wouldn't have left me alone for fourteen years, would they?

Why are you thinking like this? Shouldn't you at least hear them out?

I want to. Very much. I want answers actually.

But, this is too much. After my episode in the morning as well.

First, I seen familiar faces and people who looked happy to see me, then a person who looks exactly like me except he is taller and a boy.

It's just confusing and I did the worst thing ever. I planned on running away.

Not from the orphanage, but from my family. I don't want to get to know them.

Yeah, stupid decision. But, I don't want to. Not right now.

"Anyways, it was nice meeting you Adrian, but I really need to go. I need ice cream. Yeah, ice cream."

I said getting up and dragging Riley with me before he could say anything.

I heard him calling me but I didn't want to keep Clara waiting as well.

That was dumb. You and I both know that is not the reason.

I know.

Who was he?

Why does he look like me?

How did we know each other's names?

What was the connection that I felt towards him?

Can he by any chance be related to the familiar people over there?

He looked familiar as well, so maybe they were related.

What if they were my family?

Then, why did I not know them before?

If they live here in Tennessee, then why haven't I seen them before?

Maybe they were visiting?

Yeah, that must be it.

Will I go back to my family again?
Is Adrian my brother?

No, can't be.

But, he looks just like me.

Must be a coincidence.

Yeah, that's what it is. A coincidence which includes a person looking like exactly like the other.

Just a coincidence Ari, don't bother, yeah just a coincidence.

But it seems so much more than that.

No, Ari, just a coincidence.

If they wanted me they wouldn't have sent me to the orphanage, would they?
