The DNA results confirmed what Clara had long suspected. Her heart felt lighter. She drove to her adoptive mother’s house, and brought her a box of chocolates and hugged her for the longest time. She spent the entire day with her, going through old photo albums, laughing at shared memories. She listened to her mother's stories, truly listened, with a depth of attention she hadn’t possessed before. Every gesture, every glance, spoke of a deep-seated emotion that words could not contain.
