Adela's Point of View
It's been three days since I found my older brother here at Primo's mansion, and for those four days, he hasn't stopped trying to convince me to leave Primo. But just like that night when I saw him again, I had only one answer. I don't want to.
It's a relief that I haven't seen him today, even though I ventured out of the mansion. I wonder where Sister Seira is.
Seira is my brother Spade's wife, and she is incredibly kind! Unlike my brother, who wouldn't just stay quiet after my response of 'I don't want to.'
I know that when Mama, Papa, Aunt Helena, and Uncle Jeremiah, Primo's parents, find out about this, it will be difficult for me. But in my opinion, he shouldn't worry about it anymore. They won't blame him; they'll blame me. I know he cares a lot about me, but I wish he wouldn't protect me in this way, a way that forces me to distance myself from happiness.
