Adele's POV

"Jess, I suppose you're wondering what surprise number 3 is. Well, you're finding out tomorrow, at some point!" I excitedly spoke, she didn't look too impressed, she still giggled anyway. Whilst eating she looked in deep thought, many emotions appeared to be going through her face, until finally, a tear fell slowly down her face. "What ya thinking about babe?" I softly questioned.

"Just really, how much you've done for me, you, Dad, you never had to do this, I honestly feel you put me first before your safety, your privacy, your security. I could have done so much to fuck your life up, and you just let me in like that." she finished off by giving her fingers a click. "Why?"

"Ohh sweetie, I guess it was just mothers instincts, something about you I could just tell that you wouldn't do anything to harm me or the rest of my family. To be honest with you Jess, I was scared I felt I could trust you so much so quickly, it was really weird but Simon felt it too, even Angelo he was what 4 felt so safe around you, he is never like that with people, how he was with you in that classroom, it just melted my heart", tears now streaming down both of our faces as I pulled her into a gentle hug. She looked up and became tense, holding on to me tighter than she did before.

Jess's POV

I lift my head up again, to see who I haven't seen at least since that Friday if not the Wednesday before, the Friday that changed my life forever. They began to approach me all 4 of them. I could tell they recognized me. I couldn't quite make out what the expressions on their faces meant, I think they were enthusiastic?

"Hello Jess, long time no see, heh?", the words flowed out of my 20-year-old brother's mouth. Last thing I knew about him before I left is that he was smoking weed and sniffing cocaine.

"Yeah, hey, nice to finally see you, I'm sorry for just leaving, I guess" I tried to sound sincere and happy to see them all.

"Jessie, hiiiiii" my 6 nearly 7-year-old little sister, looked at me with her needy eyes. I guess that my older brother was looking after her and my 10-year-old littler brother.

"Heyyy little one, boy you've grow!". Is all I can get to leave my mouth. My emotions are running wild, I don't know how to feel.

"Awww, Jess, I missed you, I'm so glad to finally see you happy, to be honest, we never actually knew what happened with you, Mum and Dad. After he went to court, they found out he had been running a some weird business. I just hope you are okay now. Is this Adele, like THE Adele, the person who adopted you?" my 21-year-old sister said, I wonder if she is still with her boyfriend? I winced at the thought of calling those two people 'Mum' and 'Dad' again. I looked at Mum and she nodded.

"Yes, yes she is, Mum, sorry for not introducing these people" I began.

"Mum?" my little brother questioned said. I nodded. He opened his to say someone before being intruded by my older brother.

"We've already been through this, Jess was adopted after we last saw her".

"Thanks, as I was saying this is Charlotte but everyone calls her Charlee," I said pointing at my eldest sister. "This is Benjamin, but we call him Ben" now pointing at my older brother. "This little cutie is Abigail, or Abbie" now pointing at my little sister. "And finally this is Oliver, but Ollie" I beamed at Ollie he had grown so much. He had always been quite big from his age. I didn't bother going into the relation to me thing, I've already explained to Mum about my family, just incase today ever came, before I made an effort for it to come, it was time to face what I've been running from all this time though, my past.
