“Yes.” I said.
She stood and walked around the table, wrapping her arms around me and I froze for half a second before hugging her back.
“I am happy for you.” She whispered as Charles stood next.
He looked at Jace before holding out his hand.
“Welcome to the family.” Charles said and Jace shook it.
“I’ve been trying to earn that for a while.” Jace said and Charles smiled.
“You have.” Charles said.
Charlotte hugged me next, and this time I did not hesitate.
“I’m happy for you.” She whispered.
“Thank you.” I said and she pulled back.
“I wish I had been a better sister before this.” She said and I looked at her.
“You can’t change that.” I said.
“I know.” She said.
“But you can change what happens next.” I said and she nodded.
“That’s what I’m trying to do.” She said.
