When I was seven, a mysterious Gameboy appeared at our door from “Santa.” Years later, after my father passed away, my mother revealed the truth: the gift came from my half-brother’s father—a man I never knew existed. That’s how I learned I had a brother named Jonah.
After searching for him, we finally connected. Jonah had been adopted as a child and had always felt something missing. Meeting him felt natural, like we had known each other all our lives. Through old letters, we discovered that his father, Gavin, had loved us from afar but believed he wasn’t capable of being a good parent.
Though Gavin had passed away before we could meet him, his love lived on through small acts—like that Gameboy. Today, Jonah and I are close, and together we volunteer to help foster kids, hoping to remind them they are not forgotten.
Sometimes, love is quiet and hidden—but when the truth finally comes, it can change everything.
