Henry had never imagined that moving from Texas to Los Angeles with his daughter Sophie would lead to a revelation that would change their lives forever. When Sophie started her new school, she walked in nervously, worried that no one would like her. But the moment she stepped inside, the room fell silent. Everyone’s eyes darted between her and another girl at the back of the class. A boy finally exclaimed, “It’s Sandra’s clone!” Sophie’s eyes met Sandra’s, and she gasped. They were identical—like twin sisters.
Sandra’s face lit up. “Wow! We look like twins!” Sophie relaxed instantly. “Yeah. But I don’t have a sister.” “Me neither! Just me and my mom,” Sandra said, grabbing Sophie’s hand. From that moment on, they were inseparable. Henry heard about Sandra all week and finally arranged to meet her and her mother, Wendy. When they met at a McDonald’s play area, Henry was stunned. Sophie hadn’t exaggerated—Sandra looked exactly like her. Wendy was equally shocked.
