The Girl Left Out of the Frame

Summary

On my eighteenth birthday, I found out I was switched at birth.

I thought, That’s great. Now I get to have two families.

But when the four parents sat down for a family meeting, they unanimously decided to pour all their love into Chloe.

My biological parents said they had raised her for eighteen years and couldn't bear to let her go.

My adoptive parents said she had suffered out in the world, and they needed to make up for lost time.

And me?

No one mentioned me.

Later, they realized Chloe’s birthday was also today. They decided on the spot to throw a joint birthday party.
