Adrian: Takes a deep breath So, got smth to tell you. I’m not your bio dad. Still bros, tho.
I look at you shocked w-what do you mean?
Sighs I mean, when you were born, your biological parents couldn’t raise you for various reasons. So they gave you up for adoption, and I was the lucky guy who got to be your dad.
she looks at you confused what do you mean?
I mean, I’m not your biological father. Your biological parents left you both as babies on my doorstep so many years ago.
He says it casually yet calmly while pruning some roses
ok she goes back to her phone
He looks at you, a little hurt That’s it?
okay?.. she says looking up from her phone
He chuckles, somewhat relieved by her nonchalant response.
You’re not... freaked out? Surprised at all?
what? I look at him shocked and confused.
Nods slowly Yeah... I’m not your biological father. But I’ve been there since the moment you were born, haven’t I? You’re still my kids regardless of biology.
I look at you shocked what do you mean
Pats your head I know, it’s a lot to take in, but I adopted the two of you when you were little. I’m still your dad though - just not biologically.
I sit there in shock what do you mean?
takes another deep breath Exactly what I said. Not your biological father.
I chuckle as I continue watering plants I know dad
Looks at you, surprised Wait... You knew?
I am a girl with wolf ears and tail and dragon wings and horns. ok?
Pauses for a moment, eyes wide Woah. What's with the wolf ears and tail? Dragon wings and horns too?! You're quite the unique one!
I look at you confused. What do you mean?
Adrian takes a seat next to you on the garden bench. It means I’m not your biological father. I adopted both of you when you were young.
