Festival grounds….
"Aunt Ava, are these, okay?"
Ava glanced sideways at the packaged meals in Samantha's hand, thoughtfully,
"Give me a moment. I'll add one of the snacks that Mum and Dad like."
Ava said and then headed to one of the rooms at the back. She did all these without fully looking at Samantha at all. Samantha sighed. She sensed that Ava was a little cold to her, and Samantha knew she deserved it.
Even she hated herself for her stupidity in the few weeks since her stepmother had been married into the estate. Samantha was glad that her mum and dad had given her a second chance, but that did not mean that everyone around would be the same.
Samantha understood that she needed to work harder to get the acceptance of the people around her mother. The positive point in all these was that, she was very willing to do that.
