We all know family drama can be intense, but this story takes it to a whole new level! When our protagonist was 15, her parents separated due to her father’s affair. The affair led to divorce, and her father eventually married the other woman. Over the years, our protagonist and her sister tried to connect with their dad’s new family, but with limited success. Fast forward to 2019, when the sister and father had a major falling out, leading to a year-long period of no communication. During this time, the sister became pregnant and had a child, asking our protagonist to keep it a secret from their dad. But when the truth finally came out, the father was furious and blamed our protagonist for lying by omission. Was she in the wrong, or was she simply respecting her sister’s wishes?
