Eric's POV: The look in Cheryl's eyes was like the same look I had seen countless times in other girls' eyes. It was clear that she was interested in my body. But Ian was still around, so I had to play the perfect son role. I grabbed the juice and handed it to Cheryl. I spoke loudly, "A toast to art." Rachel swam over and snapped a picture of the most harmonious moment since the new family formed. She couldn't wait to post it on i********: to show off her perfect family life. The comments were all praise. Some said she and Ian looked like a perfect match, and some even said Cheryl and I looked like real siblings. I couldn't help but feel a bit of irony. Finally, the day ended, and I picked up the family photo on the nightstand to study it. We were all smiling in the picture. My Mom
