decided to keep the child we’d been given, the child we’d loved for the seven years, the only child we knew of. We decided to keep it a secret and keep it from you and the other child. The hospital sent us the corrected birth certificate as well as document with the other baby’s information. I’ve included both documents with this letter in case you ever wanted to reveal this secret.
Trent, I love you very much. Please believe that. No matter where you came from, I will always be your mother, and you will always be my child.
Love always,
Your mother
Beth Preston
I reread the letter three times before the words finally sunk in.
Trent wasn’t my half brother. We weren’t related at all. Now everything seemed to make sense. That day at the funeral—that day when Trent and my relationship changed, that day when he became a complete stranger to me—that was the day when he found out the truth about this secret about his life. Was this why he’d been so cold to me since her death? Was this why he’d been trying so hard to get rid of me?
“He was switched at birth,” I whispered.
My body tightened as I flipped through the remaining papers and found the document I was looking for: the document containing the other baby’s information. An audible gasp escaped my lips as I read the document.
I didn’t have a half-brother after all. I had a half- sister .
“I have a sister.” My voice came out in a soft whisper, and it sounded foreign to me.
I felt a mixture of shock, excitement, and happiness as the idea of having a big sister sunk in. A wistful smile spread across my face as my eyes focused on the birth name listed on the document. This was my sister’s name.
