Prologue
I sat down on my bed.
"I have a twin."
I stared down at the picture that was all the proof I needed. The memories of my younger childhood were rushing back. This blue eyed five year old replica of myself was in all of them.
Us playing in the backyard, us getting into trouble for coloring on Mom's walls, us doing absolutely everything together.
This picture was a simple one. My brother and I dressed alike. His shirt the same shade of green as my dress. Our eyes were almost the exact same shade of blue, but mine had a little more green.
The back of the picture had a short message. My brother had attempted to write 'Brandi' but ended up misspelling it to 'Barndi'. The d was backwards making it look like a b, and the r and n were close enough together that it looked like he'd written Bambi.
The message read:
"Bambi,
Never forget me. Xx"
No name. Just those four words. I do not even know my brother's name. But I will find him.
A knock sounded at my door.
"Come in." I called.
My 'mom' walked in, "You okay, Sweetie? You missed dinner."
"I...how come no one told me I had a brother?" I asked, quietly.
She lightly pulled the picture from my fingers and sighed, "I knew you would find out one day."
"How come no one told me?" I accused.
"Well, your father..." she started.
I cut her off, "Is he even my real father?"
She flinched, "He is." I heard the emphasis on the 'he'
"You're not my biological mom?" I asked.
She shook her head.
I breathed, "I shouldn't be taking this out on you. If you'll excuse me I need to go speak with my father."
I grabbed the picture from her hands and marched down two flights of stairs and through the door to my father's study.
He seemed upset that I had interrupted his phone call, but I just slapped the picture down on his desk.
"I'll call you back." my father said, hanging up, then looking up at me with regret in his eyes. "Where did you find this?"
"The question is not 'where' I found this. The question is 'why' you haven't told me I have a brother. Or that the woman who raised me all my life isn't my biological mother?" I asked.
He sighed, "Sweetheart, you should probably sit down."
