This is called adhesion because the attraction is to a different substance. In all systems within which water interacts with another surface, both adhesion and cohesion are factors. When cohesion is more of a factor, the water forms spherical droplets; when adhesion is more of a factor, we get sheets of water. The wax on the wax paper, it would seem, acts like the oil. You might have read somewhere that wax and oil are hydrophobic and might think that the wax and water are repelling one another.
