After taking a DNA test, I discovered my dad wasn’t my biological father—even though he’d raised me my whole life. My mom later admitted she’d been pregnant by my dad’s best friend, Tomas, before they met, and my dad had known the truth all along but chose to be my father anyway.
Curious, I eventually met Tomas and saw parts of myself in him, but sharing it publicly hurt the man who raised me. In the end, my dad and Tomas faced the truth together, and I learned that family isn’t just about biology—love made my dad my father, and the truth didn’t replace him, it simply expanded my family.
