Her voice lowered even more. "You held me in your tiny arms and told everyone that I was your little sister, so of course you would do it."
Aurora lowered her head, staring at the ground. Her shoulders trembled, but she forced a smile. She tried her best not to let her tears fall.
She remembered the day she had found out. She had been only eleven. She overheard it from the neighbors. If she had not gone to visit them, she might never have known.
She had always thought of Olivia as a bossy older sister who liked to control her, who often hit her or scolded her.
She thought Olivia was cruel. But when she learned the truth, her heart changed.
Aurora never showed it on her face. She smiled as if nothing had changed, because she did not want to embarrass the family. She understood they had hidden it to protect her. But she never forgot.
She remembered that day every single time she looked at Olivia.
