Somewhere Mine
Robin lived all her life thinking about that little one whom she had to give away immediately; right after the birth. Every time she thought of the baby she would weep in a corner and her heart would bleed. Though she now had her own family, she was always worried about her first child. And this was when she decided to find her long lost past. Would she be able to locate the one in this vast world?
The Website
Robin, even 43 years after that incident, decides to search for her very first child. It was the internet era and she somewhere had this hope that someday, maybe only for some time she will be able to meet her long-lost daughter. She signs up with a website that uses DNA information to locate for the kids that have been adopted. She kept her fingers crossed and just waited.
Giving Details
Robin furnished all the details related to her teenage pregnancy on the website. Though it was quite tough to match a DNA sample, but she was optimistic about giving it a try. Surprisingly, one fine morning she got a notification from the same website. What was it?
49.1% Match
One morning, Robin got an email notification. She did not pay much attention to it first, but the moment she realized that the email was from the DNA website, she immediately opened it and what it read shocked her to the core. Her DNA sample matched another person to about 49.1%. She couldn’t believe her eyes.
Please Please
All the while when she read the mail, Robin just prayed that this match was her daughter. But, Becky never wanted to meet her biological mother for her own reasons. Then how could this be DNA match hers? Whose DNA matched almost a half to Robin’s?
Her Curiosity
Becky was a resident of Utah where she was living with her foster parents. Robin was currently living in Arizona. Though Becky was always firm about not meeting her birth mother, as she was growing old she too wanted to at least see the woman who nurtured her in the womb for 9 months. She too signed up with the same website.
