How to survive in a world full of weird talk [Comprehensive fear]

"Dangdangdangdang——" Kelsen put a large box of Lego and a full set of paintings on the table, and smiled at Esther: "Hey, baby, this is a gift that your mother and I chose for you to celebrate your birthday today. How about joining our family? Do you like it."

The fair-skinned, brown-haired little girl in a black woolen coat shyly held the two gifts in her arms, raised her head and smiled sweetly at Kelsen full of gratitude and surprise: "Thank you dad, I like it very much. "

Then he turned to look at Rui Yi: "Thank you, Mom."

"It's okay sweetheart, as long as you like it," Rui Yi rubbed her head, "We will be family from now on, you don't have to be as restrained as before."

Sidelle sat alone on the sofa, with Annabelle who was quite huge for her beside her.

At this moment, she was a little embarrassed. After all, she seemed to be the only one in the family who didn't prepare a welcome gift, but this problem was not a big problem. It seemed that Esther was a quiet girl who was easy to get along with, and she would just make up the gift later.

As she thought about it, she suddenly saw Esther looking at her, showing a standard ladylike smile, and asked in a low voice, "Is this doll a gift from Sidelle?"

Esther's moist eyes stared straight at Annabelle, she seemed to like it very much, she put down the gift in her hand, and walked over as if she wanted to touch it.

"Wait!" Sydel's body reaction was greater than the speed of her brain, and she subconsciously blocked Esther's hand: "You can't touch this."

After she finished speaking, she realized that she seemed a little fierce, and immediately became annoyed, wondering if she had frightened Esther.

For Sidelle, an item full of supernatural colors like Annabelle should be locked in the basement storage room immediately. For some reason, she always has an intuitive avoidance of this doll, so she doesn't want her family to Any contact with Annabelle.

When she entered the door, her father wanted to help her carry the box, but Sidelle refused without hesitation.

But before Sidelle apologized, Esther in front of her withdrew her hand shyly, lowered her moist eyes like black grapes, "Sorry, I shouldn't touch your things. It's just that this doll is Beautiful as a work of art, I have never owned such a beautiful doll."

Sidelle: ...?This doll is beautiful? ?

She couldn't hold back, looking at Annabelle's thick scarlet lips, weird and stiff smile, and the congealed scars on her face.

Such a thing from the underworld... would anyone really like it?

She doesn't understand, really doesn't understand.

Esther ran back to Kelsen's side, her interest seemed to be a little low, she leaned close to Kelsen's side, lowered her head, and returned to the shy look she had just been afraid of.

"Sydel," mother Rui called her seriously, and Sidel subconsciously raised her waist, seeing Rui's eyes full of condemnation.

"Oh..." Kelsen didn't speak to Sidelle, he hesitated for a moment, and somewhat unnaturally comforted the little girl who was clinging to his side: "Do you like Sidelle's doll? Esther, if you If we have time, maybe in the afternoon we can go to the doll shop to have a look.”

Sidelle has always been well-behaved and sensible. It was the first time for Kelsen to experience the feeling of coaxing a child, so she was inevitably cautious, for fear of saying the wrong thing.

Sidelle: "..."

She doesn't seem to be saying anything serious.

But considering Esther's background, Sidelle sighed inwardly.After all, she is a big sister in her twenties, and she can't compete with a nine-year-old girl who came out of an orphanage.

Sidelle simply apologized to Esther: "I'm sorry, sister. Did I scare you just now? I'm sorry, but the owner of that doll is not me, and I am not qualified to give it to you."

Esther was still buried in Kelsen's arms, but her face was slightly poked out, her snow-white face was lined with a black coat, and the sigh in Sydel's heart was immediately blown away by this handsome face.

She happily proposed: "If you are willing to accept my apology as an apology gift, can I introduce you to our home?"

Kelsen laughed, Sydel had always been smart.He stroked the curly hair of the girl in his arms and asked her to sit up, "Honey, you put a lot of effort into arranging Sitel in your bedroom, do you want to go upstairs with your sister to have a look?"

Sidelle saw Esther's timid gaze, she quickly glanced at herself, then lowered her head, and nodded twice.

Esther's hand lightly touched Sidelle's outstretched hand.

Sidelle held the little girl's hand, but at this moment she subconsciously frowned slightly, and the strange feeling of disobedience when she first met at the gate of the villa returned.

……why?

She looked sideways slightly, looking at the little girl beside her from the corner of her eye.

Esther is lowering her eyebrows, her beautiful facial features are as quiet as a painting, she is obviously an orphan, but there is an indescribable elegance in her demeanor and actions.

Noticing Sidelle's sizing up, Esther returned her gaze with an elegant smile.

Sidel suppressed the sense of disobedience in her heart, and smiled sweetly at Esther.

Anyway, this was her sister - she couldn't just suspect Esther, just relying on unfounded intuition.

Watching the two children go upstairs hand in hand, Rui smiled: "Sidelle is really a bit weird today, but she should be able to get along well with Esther."

"That's for sure," Kelsen shrugged, sat next to Rey, and took his wife's shoulders: "You know, our little princess has always been very smart."

"Yeah," Rey said softly, looking past her husband to the white flowers blooming outside the window: "If my Delina was still around, Sidel would be a very good sister."

"Honey," Kelson said, hugging Ray, "it's been three years, and maybe you should—I mean, be happier."

"I understand," said Rae, closing her eyes. "Now we have another daughter, don't we?"

"Esther is cute and smart, she will bring us new things, such as love, and laughter." Kelsen said softly.

The husband and wife embraced each other on the sofa, and the white flowers outside the window swayed slightly with the wind.

"By the way," Rey let go of Kelsen after a while, "that doll can be put in our bedroom later, Sidel doesn't seem to like it very much."

Kelsen looked at the gorgeous girl doll on the sofa: "...Oh? I thought that child liked this doll very much, otherwise how could he do such a rude thing to Esther."

"That's exactly what I wanted to tell you," Rae said. "Sydel has been acting weird all day, ever since I saw this doll. I'm a little worried about her."

"It's a bit abnormal," Kelsen casually looked at the doll on the sofa, while comforting his wife: "But she is still a child after all, and it's normal to have repeated emotions."

"Maybe you can talk to her tomorrow," Ray shrugged, getting up and saying, "I'll go make dinner."

"Don't worry about her," Kelsen said with a smile, "Maybe Sidel will forget about today's troubles after she sleeps."

Rey sighed, "I hope so."

Upstairs, Sidelle was holding Esther's hand, patiently introducing her the structure and layout of the villa, racking her brains to use various humorous terms, trying to ease the stiff atmosphere between the two of them.

But obviously the effect is not great.

Esther was two years older than her, and she was also much taller. Sidel could only reach Esther's neck.

She noticed that Esther's wrists and neck were wrapped with black silk, she was a little curious, but because the two were unfamiliar, Sidelle silently swallowed her curious words.

Finally, at the door of Esther's room, when Sidelle was about to go in with Esther, she followed her silently all the way, but Esther suddenly shook off her hand.Sidelle looked back puzzled, and saw that the expression on the brown-haired, black-eyed girl's face was no longer docile and calm, as if she was a different person, she glanced at Sidelle coldly, her eyes were quite impatient, and she took the lead to open the door, Turning his head and staring at his stepsister with a cold expression: "Do you need to come in?"

Sidelle: "??" Ahhh.

She really didn't expect that a nine-year-old girl could change her face like flipping through a book, and she froze in place for a moment.

Esther frowned slightly, seeing that Sidelle didn't speak for a while, she closed the door with a "bang" without hesitation.

Sidelle: "???"

She stood there in a daze, and after a few seconds, she realized that she had been rejected, and was even laughed angrily for a moment.

Whoops, I didn't expect this little girl to have two faces in her film.

Good guy, is this a well-behaved and submissive person in front of her parents, but she starts to reveal her true nature when she becomes an adult?

It's not that Sidelle was so angry that she shut the door. After all, she is also a nine-year-old. It is normal to have her own privacy, and it is normal not to want her to enter the bedroom.

But she is not a simple seven-year-old child, at least psychologically mature, she is very clear about what she sees in Esther's eyes.

Impatient, bored, and contemptuous.

...Because you hate it so much if you don't touch the doll?Is Esther the Disney princess on the run?

Sidelle worked so hard to please her beautiful sister for a long time, but finally she was full of anger. She went back to her room in a rage, deeply feeling that the clown was herself.

At the same time, Esther's contrast also aroused Sidelle's vigilance.

... Is this kind of person who behaves in front of her face and behaves behind her back, really worthy of the love her parents have given her?

The little girl buried her head on the pillow, remembering her mother Ruiyi mentioned to her, the pair of shining, hopeful eyes when they adopted a child, she couldn't bear to tell her parents what had just happened.

Wait and see—she thought silently.

That weird feeling of disobedience has been lingering in Sidelle's mind ever since she met Esther.And Esther's contrast undoubtedly aggravated Sidelle's uneasiness.

These uneasiness gathered like dark clouds, casting a shadow in her heart.
