My Triplet Brothers Begged Me Back
On my 18th birthday, my triplet brothers adopted a fifteen-year-old orphan girl.
To make their newly adopted sister happy, Matthew gave her my coming-of-age gift, Daniel sent away the dog that had grown up with me because she was allergic, and William coldly told me to get out of the house and stop making their little sister upset.
I didn't say another word. I just packed my bags and left.
They all thought I was just throwing a tantrum and would be back in a few days.
My three brothers canceled their busy work schedules to take the orphan girl abroad to relax her nerves. They went to see the Northern Lights in Alaska – the place I had always dreamed of visiting.
Many days later, when they returned from their vacation, they suddenly learned that I had volunteered for a twenty-year medical research mission in a remote frontier.
I would never be coming home again.
That night, they fell apart.
