chapter 56

“You’ve always seemed to love living in Fairview. Have you ever thought about what you’d like to do in the future, like staying here or moving elsewhere?” I asked him as he smiled, a hint of nostalgia in his eyes as he gazed out the window of the kitchen.

 “I really do love this small town. There’s something about the sense of community, the way everyone living here has somehow become a part of our family that I’ve come to cherish ever since my parents died. So I honestly never considered moving away after my parents died.” He spoke as I nodded, understanding where he was coming from. Adam’s fingers traced patterns on his chopsticks, a thoughtful expression on his face.

 “Lately, however, there is something I’ve been thinking about.” He admitted.
