Chapter 891

In the quaint Hill Village, everyone buzzed about three major events.

First was the adoption. Ms. Gonzalez decided to adopt Aiden, and her boyfriend, who had come to town, was in on the decision too.

Second was movie night. Ms. Gonzalez's boyfriend had brought a projector to the village and screened a film for everyone. This was a big deal since it was the first time many in the village had seen a movie. Their homes didn't have TVs, and the experience was both novel and exciting. Third was the thunderstorm. On the day Ms. Gonzalez planned to take Aiden away, a torrential downpour nearly washed away the village. It was terrifying.

The villagers were already familiar with the adoption and the storm, but the movie night stood out in their memories.

They mentioned that Kendrick's friend was the one who brought the film. He was about Kendrick's age, obviously a city boy with his clean, stylish look.

He spent his nights enthralling the villagers with movies and his days capturing their smiles in photographs, weaving through them with his camera, preserving memories.

Back then, Elizabeth and Kendrick were boarding at the local school, and so did the city boy.

The villagers liked him; he had a good vibe, always joking around with Kendrick. They seemed close, like true friends.

While discussing the adoption with Aiden's prospective parents, Kendrick often included him, even asking him to record the conversations as a precautionary measure.
