Epilogue

Catty giggled excitedly, grabbing her husband's arm as they crossed city limits. She couldn't wait to see the Hollywood sign again and all her old friends. Kyle smiled at his wife's excitement. They hadn't been back in L.A. since their son was a baby, 14 years earlier. And Catty hadn't talked to any of her friends in twelve long years.

She turned, her brown eyes bright as she looked at her children. Miranda, her youngest, was asleep, but Chris met her eyes.

"Oh, Chris, you're going to love it here."

His intense blue eyes watched the passing scenery. "I'm sure I will, Mom."

Chris watched his mother turn back around before looking back out the window. He felt a comfortable pressure against his side. He knew it was his little sister. Not that she was his real sister. Chris had been adopted at birth.

He glanced at his parents quickly. He loved them both, even if they weren't his biological parents. That's the real reason he was so happy to move to Los Angeles. It was the city where he had been born. It was the place to look for his birth parents.

Chris glanced down at his twelve-year-old sister. Amazingly, he rarely got angry or annoyed with her. He was gifted with patience.

He wrapped his arm around her shoulder. She moaned softly, but remained asleep.

"Mom, who are we going to see first?"

"My best friend, Vanessa, and her husband, Michael. I can't wait to see Auriella again. She was beautiful as a baby. She's your age, you know," his mom rattled on.

Kyle looked up in the rearview mirror, caught his son's reflection, and winked. Chris grinned.

He couldn't wait.

Here's a preview of the next story!

Torrence breathed in so sharply, her chest hurt. Her chin trembled slightly as she looked into the face of the one called Chris. His hair was dyed an intense dark blue, but she was sure that it had once been black. His eyes--her eyes--widened as he stared back at her. With a trembling hand, she touched his cheek.

It was like looking into a mirror. If she had been a guy, she would have looked exactly like this Chris.

She had a twin brother!
