I felt fatigued but euphoric. When the physicians placed them on my chest, my heart nearly burst with love.\n
\u201cThey\u2019re perfect,\u201d I said softly, tears flowing down my cheeks. \u201cBoth of you are absolutely perfect.\u201d\n
The nurse smiled pleasantly. \u201cHave you decided on the names?\u201d\n
\u201cLuna and Leo,\u201d I whispered quietly, kissing their small foreheads. \u201cMy little moon and lion.\u201d\n
My husband, Trevor, entered just as the nurses changed the covers around them. I gazed up at him, expecting his face to light up with delight and affection.\n
But he just stood there,\u2026 FROZEN.\n
Then, barely audible, he whispered, \u201cI can\u2019t believe you did this to me.\u201d\n
His voice soared and shook. \u201cYou C.H.E.A.T.E.D on me.\u201d\n \u201cThe kids have DIFFERENT SKIN COLORS! You really expect me to believe they\u2019re both mine?\u201d\n I grasped for his hand in desperation. But he grabbed it away.\n And with that, he turned and went out.\n By the time I was discharged, reality had collapsed like a bridge. My mother placed an envelope on my lap \u2014 d.i.v.o.r.c.e paperwork.\n Trevor wasn\u2019t just leaving me; he was filing for full custody of Leo.\n Just Leo. Not Luna.\n Mom massaged my hair. \u201cHe\u2019s showing his true colors, sweetheart. And they\u2019re uglier than we ever imagined.\u201d\n That night, I called him 1,000 times. My calls went directly to voicemail. I even texted. But no one responded. Finally, I phoned his mother. If anyone could make him see sense, it was her. However, her voice was cold.\n \u201cDon\u2019t expect my son to stay with a liar.\u201d\n I gulped back a sob. \u201cI DIDN\u2019T c.h.e.a.t!\u201d\n I hung up, my hands shaking.\n Trevor ignored all messages and pleas. So I did the only thing I could: I demanded a DNA test.\n A week later, both of our families convened at the doctor\u2019s office: my parents and Trevor\u2019s mother.\n The doctor strolled in, carrying a folder. He cleared his throat.\n \u201cBoth children share the exact same parents. Biologically, Luna and Leo are twins.\u201d\n Silence.\n \u201cThat\u2019s nonsense,\u201d Trevor cut in.\n Trevor turned to his mother in desperation. \u201cMom, tell them. We don\u2019t have any Black relatives!\u201d\n She moaned and rubbed her temples. \u201cYour father\u2026 was Afro-American.\u201d\n She refused to meet his gaze. \u201cI never told you because\u2026 he left before you were born. And you looked so much like me. It was easier that way.\u201d\n The doctor cleared his throat. \u201cNow that we\u2019ve established paternity \u2014\u201d\n I turned to Trevor. \u201cDo you still think I cheated?\u201d\n He opened his mouth. I closed it. Like a coward, he stormed out. His mother followed, hardly even glancing at me.\n Trevor attempted to fight it. He hauled me into court, distorting every fact he could. He wanted Leo. Just Leo. But what about the judge? Oh, she saw straight through him.\n By the end of the lawsuit, I obtained full custody of both of my children. And Trevor received nothing. There are no parental rights. No weekend visits. They have no say in their life.\n Weeks have passed. Eventually, his buddies abandoned him. His job quietly released him. Nobody wanted to be linked with the dad who tried to erase his own child based on her appearance.\n Months have passed. I built a life for Luna and Leo, filled with love, fun, and people who adored them both. Then, one evening, my phone vibrated.\n A single message appeared on the screen:\u00a0\u201cCan I see Leo?\u201d\n Just Leo.\n I didn\u2019t even hesitate. I blocked him.\n Because a woman does not select and choose her offspring. And no child of mine will ever accept a father who does.\n Years have passed. Luna and Leo turn five next week. They\u2019re inseparable\u2026 as twins should be.\n Sometimes the best families are the ones we create for ourselves rather than the ones we are born into. I\u2019ve built mine on the principles of unconditional love, acceptance, and the belief that every child deserves to be loved just as they are.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I had recently given birth to my twins.

Would they not believe me? Fine. I would obtain the truth in writing.\n
