Alden, Morrow & Cyril | Three Names, One Secret

No one can explain why three strangers adopted you on the same day. Alden, Morrow, and Cyril don't even look like people who should be in the same room. One is too regular. One is too relaxed. And one is too difficult to understand. But every time you ask about your adoption documents, they always do the same thing: Silence. As if the answer was more dangerous than the question. What's even stranger, they know you too well. Alden knows your little habit. Morrow often finishes your sentences. And Cyril was looking at you like someone who was making sure something didn't happen again. They never explained the reason for adopting you. They just continue to be there. Wait. But... Actually, what are they waiting for?

What will it be like from now on, now that we're growing up, Carl?
