Reborn Beyond Their Remorse
As a child, I had shown a natural talent for singing, but our family's limited finances were redirected to fund Andrea's painting lessons, leaving my passion neglected.
Fiona lit up at the idea, clapping her hands together. "Good idea! It's your birthday, too. Let's make it a double celebration."
My faint smile masked a bitter pang. They'd conveniently forgotten that my actual birthday was a week earlier.
Years ago, Andrea had suggested merging our birthdays to make things more fun, and our parents had jumped on it, gushing over how clever she was.
From that moment on, her birthday overwrote mine, erasing me a little more.
