"Yeah, that's horrible!" Michelle Fuller sniffled, looking at Addie Sutton with teary eyes. "Are you stupid? How could you jump into the river? If they don't want you, I do! Come be my little sister. My parents would be thrilled!"
Addie Sutton was stunned, unable to tell if she was being serious or just kidding.
Only Renee Jennings knew she wasn't kidding.
She patted Michelle Fuller's head and said with a laugh, "But Addie didn't know you when she jumped in the river."
"That's a good point," Michelle Fuller said with a nod of realization. Then she added, "But we know each other now!"
She looked at Addie Sutton, her eyes full of sincerity. "Addie, do you want to be my little sister?"
Addie Sutton's face turned bright red, and for a moment, she didn't know how to respond.
"We can save that question for later," Renee Jennings said, raising an eyebrow slightly. "Addie, do you still want to go back to the Sutton family?"
