The news felt like a physical blow to Chloe. Raised in a loving home, she'd never questioned her place in the world. Now, the glossy veneer of her reality was cracked. The test results pointed to a half-sister named Sarah, whose picture was plastered across her phone’s screen.

Chloe felt an urgency to connect. She started researching Sarah, devouring information like a starving person. She learned about Sarah's career, her hobbies, the way she laughed. She noticed how similar they looked.

She found herself daydreaming about their first meeting, scripting conversations in her head, the fantasy playing over and over. She felt a magnetic pull towards Sarah, an undeniable longing she couldn't explain. She couldn't stop thinking about her.
