The next morning, Lily’s laughter mingled with 

my parentsvoices from the dining room.

walked downstairs and saw Lily sitting in my 

usual spot, using my favorite plate and 

cutlery

The cheerful atmosphere instantly evaporated 

upon my arrival, as if I were the outsider 

intruding on their family. My mother looked 

flustered. Ashley, you’re up early. Lily 

doesn’t have her own dishes yet, so she’s 

using yours. Could you use David’s?” 

No,I said flatly. I don’t like taking other 

people’s things

Everyone knew I was being sarcastic. My 

father, still angry about me bullyingLily the 

previous night, scowled

– 

I glanced at the table milk, a sandwich, and 

– 

bacon and eggs all Lily’s favorites. I was 

– 

lactose intolerant and usually had oatmeal for 

breakfast

Oh, I forgot you can’t have milk,my mother 

said quickly, eager to smooth things over, to 

hide the fact that she catered to her adopted 

daughter more than her own. I’ll make you 

some soy milk.” 

Enough with the fuss!my father snapped

slamming his mug on the table. You spoil her 

rotten! We have to take Lily to enroll in 

school. We don’t have time for this!” 

My past self would have been devastated by 

his words, throwing a tantrum. Now, I felt only 

numb

I sat quietly in a corner and saw a smug smile 

flicker across Lily’s face before she quickly 

replaced it with a look of sadness

Dad, don’t be mean to Ashley,she said 

softly. She’s not like me. She’s always been 

loved and cherished. It’s natural for her to be 

a little spoiled. It just means you love her very 

much.” 

My saintly parents were moved to tears once 

again. How could there be such an angelic 

little girl? In comparison, I, who had 

く 

everything and was still so difficult, seemed 

incredibly ungrateful. They looked at me with 

deep disappointment

But I didn’t care. In my past life, I had 

become practically estranged from my parents. I didn’t care what they thought of me. I could have easily played the role of the clueless, easily controlled younger sister, earning back some scraps of their affection. But I would make Lily understand that the 

love and family she schemed so hard to 

acquire meant nothing to me
