My husband demanded a DNA test and was convinced that our son was not his: when the results were ready, the doctor called and revealed something terrible
Fifteen years after we had raised our son together, my husband suddenly said:
— I’ve always had doubts. It’s time to do a DNA test. I laughed, because even the thought seemed absurd.
But my laughter quickly faded when we actually went to take the tests. It happened on a Tuesday. We were having dinner together.
Suddenly he looked at me in a way that made me freeze inside. — I’ve wanted to say this for a long time, — he said, — but I didn’t want to hurt you. Our son doesn’t look like me.
— But he looks like your mother, we’ve discussed this! — I tried to object. — Still.
I want the test. Or we’ll get divorced. I loved my husband deeply and adored our son.
I was certain of my fidelity: I had never been with another man, and I loved only him. But for peace of mind, we went to the clinic and gave the samples. The results were ready in a week.
The doctor called and asked me to come immediately. In the hallway, I felt my hands shaking. When I entered, he lifted his eyes from the paper and said seriously:
— You’d better sit down.
— Why, doctor? What’s there? — I felt my heart pounding.
And then came the words that turned my life upside down…
— Your husband is not the biological father of your son. — But how is that possible?! — I almost screamed.
— I’ve always been faithful. I never had anyone else! The doctor sighed heavily:
— Yes, and the strangest part is something else.
You are not the biological mother of this boy either. Everything went dark before my eyes. I couldn’t believe it.
— What are you saying? How can that be? — That’s exactly what we need to find out, — said the doctor.
— Let’s repeat the tests to rule out an error. Then we’ll try to check the archives and see what happened. We repeated the tests.
The story doesn’t end here — it continues on the next page.
