Novel & Cerita Family Isn't Always Blood

“Can you imagine? What kind of abomination is that? It’s practically incest. I told Jareel it’s sick, and I still stand by that.” I blinked, confused and disoriented. “But... Mum, they’re not blood-related.” “So what?” she snapped, cutting me off like I hadn’t even spoken. “It’s still twisted! That’s supposed to be family, Kasmine. Family. It’s just wrong.” My throat tightened. I rubbed my forehead, exhaustion creeping up my spine like cold fingers. “Mum, they didn’t grow up together. They’re not related by blood. It doesn’t count—”

she questioned. “No. I wish there was a chance. I just don’t see it happening. I admire what you have with your father but what you have is special and unique. I’m not the only person in the world who doesn’t have a relationship with their family. Sometimes, blood isn’t enough. We might be related but we couldn’t be more different.”

I said out with the silence hanging in the air. My eyes held his. I was not supposed to be even telling him this. Family could be the best and most wicked thing in our lives. They had such a strong grip on us but family was not just those bonded to you through blood. Family are the people that stick, protect, care and love you no matter what. That trash was not his family, never was, never would be. He did not owe him any loyalty at all. Dante turned around, him knowing it as clear as I did.

Through it all, the love between Emily and me continued to grow, deepening the bond that was forged through fate and perseverance. We learned that family is not solely defined by genetics, but by the love, support, and shared experiences that shape our lives. As we reflected on our shared journey, we were grateful for the fortunate turn of events that brought us together. Our story was a testament to the extraordinary possibilities that exist when love transcends biological connections, and two souls find solace, belonging, and an unbreakable bond in one another.

They're the only ones you can count on, to love you, to comfort you, to see you through thick and thin. To those who share that thinking, they believe that family is only blood. You can have friends, spouses, strangers you look up to from a far. You can know them your entire life, you can love them with your entire being, and you can deem them those you would live and die for. But still, in the end, those people aren't your family, because you don't share the same blood. And after all, blood is thicker than water. Only that isn't the saying at all.

Someone is sending him warning stares in form of invisible daggers. Tyler chuckled. “Kai. Family doesn’t only limit blood. In this world, you will see many, many types of families. There will be families with two fathers or families with two mothers. They could also only be a mother or father. But still, they are families! There are even people out there calling the others siblings because of their strong bonds even though they share absolutely no ounce of bloods. Why Kai? Don’t you see me as a family member?” “I do…”

"Your mother is sick, and Jennifer's condition is unstable. Our family can't afford any more problems." I closed my book and met his gaze without responding. He took a deep breath. Then, as if making a difficult decision, he began, "I know you might've felt wronged by certain things that had happened in this household in the past. But regardless of what happened, we're still family. We're still bound by blood." "A family?" I murmured before letting out a quiet and detached laugh. "Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think this current body of mine is related to any of you by blood," I said.

" You said you fight for family, your sister wasn't here during the whole fight so... ." Aiden giggled. " in this age Sarah, family is actually not about those related by blood or does who raised us ." " Then what's a family Aiden? ." "This park have another definition of family, they're people who stand by and for you, they never let go of you, they fight for you and are ready to die for you." Aiden said. "Cool definition of family i guess, you mean i shouldn't actually feel bad about killing my father." "I can't judge Sarah, you were left with a complicated option."

He laid it on the little table here in the living room. "Yes, son. It's the heat of the weather right now so it's tiring to leave,” her mothers says. It was as if I felt a little ashamed of what I had done to her mother earlier. But I'd never thought this woman standing in front of me is her mother. Because they don't have any similarities in my eyes. Anyway, not all mothers or fathers have the same features to their daughters or to their sons. Sometimes, children inherit their appearance to their grandfather, grandmother or any family sides.

"Jane, what if your new family doesn't want you to have anything to do with us?" "Then I'll tell them that's not their decision to make." "And what if our family can't afford to be part of your new life?" "Then I'll make sure money is never a barrier between us." "How?" "By helping when you need help. By asking when I should ask. By remembering that family takes care of family." "Even adopted family?" "Especially adopted family." As Paul hugged me goodbye, I realized something. Blood might make you related. But love makes you family.
