"Your sister was never dead. She is actually alive.."
Shock took over both the brothers who were losing the color of their faces. Their eyelids stopped blinking as horror captured their hearts, "You mean to say that...our sister was never dead?"
Shawn had a lot of self control and passed a nod. It was a simple stare on Charles, whose heart was trembling with unsound fear, "Our sister.. But you told mother something else! You said that she died during childbirth.... didn't you say that? I still remember what you said to me in the hospital on that day."
"A lie." He didn't hesitate to say and this pulled all the nerves on Charles's face.
He looked at his father and felt all the emotions bundling up inside his chest. Some flashes of the past recollected themselves in his mind as he heard his father's old words ringing in his ears.
'Your sister died during childbirth. She is no more...'
'Our child is dead, Alice.'
