Let’s say a couple has a 7-year-old daughter who has twin half-sisters who just turned 26 but the little girl doesn’t know about the twins and vice-versa.
And let’s say the twins were kept from their biological father since birth, yet their mother regularly sent cards, letters and picture updates of them from Bermuda, pictures that leave no doubt as to who their (very cute) bio dad and (very cute) little half sister must be. And letters which basically say “I’m sorry. They are your daughters, but this is for the best.” (All letters and pictures, including a jpeg of the twins as recently as a few months ago, saved and intact.)
Forgetting all the billions of gallons of water under now the bridge, if you were the father of the seven-year-old daughter, what would you do?
[Guys, this edit comes after my answer to Karyn’s quest, but before I knew the comments from the Weyrd1 and Lance had come in. You will see so much more of the details in my comment to Karyn’s. Thanks. And although I think you’ve probably picked up on it, the bio dad is only full of love for this whole situation and his wife feels the same. Neither of them would ever wish the Mom any harm, only good really, and it can’t have been an easy road for her to keep this secret from her children for so long.]
