After those words, am I supposed to sit here, pretending everything’s fine and smiling? No, celebrate without me!” With that, Natalie slammed the door.

After saying that, do I really have to sit here, pretend everythings fine and keep smiling?

I Took a DNA Test and Instantly Regretted It I Had to Marry My Girlfriend After Learning She Was Pregnant. After the Wedding, We Moved In with My Parents Because We Couldn’t Afford Our Own Place. Time Passed and I Became the Proud Dad of a Wonderful Little Boy. Soon, We Decided to Take Out a Mortgage and Start Our Own Home. Some Time Later, My Wife Announced She Was Expecting Again—and That’s How Princess Anna Joined Our Family. The Kids Grew Up Fast. With Every Year, I Noticed More and More That They Didn’t Look Anything Like Me—or My Wife, for That Matter! Two Redheads Covered in Freckles—Where Did That Come From in Our Family? Eventually, I Started Thinking About a Paternity Test. Maybe It Wasn’t a Wise Move, But I Needed to Know for Sure That I Was Raising My Own Children. So, I Did It. I Had to Wait Two Weeks for Results. As Soon as the Lab Called, I Rushed Over—Thank God, I Really Was Their Dad. I Went Home and Stashed the Papers So My Wife Wouldn’t Find Them. But Why Didn’t I Just Throw Them Away? I Paid a Heavy Price for That Mistake! A Few Days Later, My Wife Threw the Documents in My Face. She Made Such a Scene, the Whole House Seemed to Shake. I Get Why She Was Upset, but Things Could Have Been Resolved Calmly. She Never Forgave Me, and Now I’m Alone. It’s Been Five Years Since, and My Wife Still Won’t Let Me See the Kids. So, It Turns Out That Simple Curiosity Ended Up Costing Me the Most Precious Thing I Had—My Family. I Just Hope That, One Day, My Wife Will Be Able to Forgive Me…

I took a DNA test and came to regret it It feels like a lifetime ago, back when I was still just a young
