But I wasn’t convinced until Fiona revealed a birthmark identical to the ones David and Sofia had. It was a family trait. Fiona then shared that Sofia’s father had died before she was born, explaining why David had been so involved in their lives. Despite their explanations, I still wanted concrete proof. We all went to the lab together to get the DNA test results. To my horror, the initial report confirmed David as Sofia’s father. But just as despair set in, the doctor admitted a mistake—he had given us the wrong results. The correct report confirmed that David was not Sofia’s father after all.
Relief washed over all of us, and I apologized for doubting them. Back home, David took responsibility for not being more open about his family, and Fiona expressed regret for not sharing more about Sofia’s father. The experience brought us closer together, and I felt immense joy when I shared the news that I was pregnant. Months later, after giving birth to our son, Zack, I was surprised to see our home filled with relatives, all excited to meet the newest addition to the family. Surrounded by love and support, I realized that our bond had only grown stronger through this ordeal.
