Forcefully Included in the Story (Hiatus)

You are like me

After thanking Cara for her time, the 2 children are left alone. Adlyn watches Leonia as she finishes her drink, still taking in the earlier conversation.

"Leonia."

She looks up at him.

In return, he stares back for a few minutes before speaking.

"Do you miss your parents?"

Leonia just smiles while looking at her cup.

"Should I?"

"Anyone would miss their family."

"But I don't remember them. So what's the point of missing them."

She looks out the window in a daze.

"I think you do."

Leonia glares as she is getting annoyed with the continuous accusations of the child before her.

"You too had a family before you woke up here."

Adlyn's calm expression didn't change after Leonia gasps with her eyes wide open.

He knew she was a transmigrator the moment they met in the snow.

Even now, she acts like an adult and talks like an adult and makes reference to Earth's terms, like: tunnel and Superman.

No one knows except for Adlyn that all the people around him are just characters in a manhwua he read in his previous life.

Adlyn used to be a student who is basically a weeb.

After reading 'Who made me a princess', she found 'I became the male lead's adopted daughter' where she is now.

Yes.

She.

Adlyn was a girl who woke up in prince's body.

A non-existent background character that never appeared in either novel or manhwua.

This, in a way, makes him understand Leonia's feelings of not belonging. Soon, she will face a snake who tried to lower her sense of identity and Adlyn wants to help her even if it's a little effect.

"How did you-?"

"How I can't tell you but I knew who you were the moment we met."

"This doesn't make any sense."

"Well put it simply I'm like you."

"..."

"We both appear in a story we read in our previous lives."

"You too!"

"Yes."

Adlyn responds in a soft voice.

Leonia couldn't believe that someone like her is too.

"So."

She snaps out of her thoughts.

"Do you miss them, your parents?"

"Yes. Even being here I still think of them."

"But they're not here now."

"I can still miss them!"

"Yes but you need to move on."

"So you want me to forget?!"

"No. Don't forget. You can move on and not forget."

Leonia had start to cry and Adlyn moves to lift her in his arms. He pats her back softly to soothe her.

"You don't need to grieve for people you don't know."
