Summary
On my sixth birthday, my older sister, Bettina Moretti, gives me a cake with a message written in frosting.
It reads, "Happy Sixth Anniversary of the Day We Found You!"
I burst into tears and run to my parents, desperate to know if it's true.
My father, Vittorio Moretti, nods. "That's right. If your sister hadn't begged us to take you home, you probably would've frozen to death next to a dumpster."
My mother, Elisabetta Russo, pats me on the head. "Your sister saved your life, Alessia Moretti. You owe her a debt you'll never be able to repay. Don't forget that."
