Sierra got up from her chair and moved over.

The atmosphere at the table was unusually quiet.

“This is Sierra Bell, Anna’s daughter. She’s also my granddaughter” Cyrus looked across the table, his voice calm and firm.” Prom today on, she is family”

Everyone looked at one another, but no one spoke.
