Chapter 4
My mother passed away when I was twelve years old. She made the last wedding dress by herself, but she couldn’t guess my size when I grew up, so she modified it many times along the way.
Finally, we had no choice but to add adjustable zippers to both the chest and waist
This was the last gift my mother left me
Even this wedding dress, I almost couldn’t keep it.
The same year when mom passed away, dad brought home a little girl.
He said that this was the child of his old comrade, named Carolina.
His comrade entrusted him with the child on his deathbed.
“Joey, Sienna, this will be your little sister from now on. You must get along well with her, understood?”
I thought, I knew, but Carolina clearly didn’t know…
Thave never, n
never seen such a child.
She was gritting her teeth and snatching the doll from my hand one second, and the next second she could burst into tears in front of Joey and Brayden. Do people subconsciously sympathize and trust the weak?
I was not sure. I only knew that at first, the balance in my heart was leaning towards the two people who were with me, but it slowly shifted towards Carolina.
“Sienna, you couldn’t do this! Carolina has lost her parents, how putin!
“Yeah, Sienna, you should have been more considerate towards Carolina. You have Joey and me, but Carolina has nothing.”
I can no longer remember how many times I had a big argument with them.
The outcome of every argument was always concluded with them angrily reproaching me, “You don’t have even a fraction of Carolina’s gentleness and loveliness.”
Gradually, I didn’t even want to argue anymore.
However, such compromises made Carolina… more and more excessive.
She even wanted to snatch away the wedding dress dat my mother lett for me!
When I saw her dragging that white wedding dress up the stairs, I instantly lost my temper.
The first time, I laid hands on her
When she entered my room with Joy, she had a bright red handprint on her face.
I was still carefully wiping the dusty hem of the skirt with clear water.
“Joey, don’t scold Sienna. It was Carolina who made Sierra unhappy, and Slemma only hit me because of that. It was my own fault that I deserved to be hith
I still remember Joey’s gaz
Disappointed, puzzled, and even.., with a hint of disgust
He said, “Sienna, I never thought you would be so malicious!”
“Carolina had never spent such beautiful clothes before, but she just wanted to have a look. How could you be so cruel!”
I was so angry that my hands were shaking, and 1 argued loudly with Joey
The noise brought Dad over as well
He looked at Carolina, whose face was full of tears, and carefully comforted her, saying, “Carolina, don’t cry. Daddy will find someone to make you an even more beautiful princess dress, okay?”
After he had comforted Carolina, he turned around and only then did he realize that I was still standing there, instantly feeling embarrassed on his face,
“Cough, cough, alright, alright, I’ll make one for Sienna too, okay?”
I watched him and Joey carefully wiping away Carolina’s tears, and finally realized, belatedly, that… It seemed like I was the outsider.
I didn’t want a new princess dress, and even that wedding dress, I carefully hid it in a locked wardrobe. It was on that day that I suddenly realized, in this world, there was no one who loved me anymore…..
“Sienna, we have arrived. Let me accompany you inside so that little slut won’t bully you again!”
