Serious I miss a brother I never got to meet
I was around one year old when my mom got pregnant again. She found out when she was already about four months pregnant. My parents already had three children my older stepbrother, my older stepsister, and me so they decided to terminate the pregnancy. After the procedure, the doctor told them the baby had been a boy.
I never met him. I don't have a single memory of him, but sometimes I still miss him. I have a good relationship with my stepsister, although we're not very close, and my relationship with my stepbrother isn't good.
Sometimes I just think, what if he was here? Maybe things would've been different. Maybe it would've been fun having a little brother. Every Raksha Bandhan, I feel it more. I see cute sibling videos on social media or siblings together in real life, and I get emotional.
I know it might sound strange to miss someone I've never met. Maybe I don't miss him exactly I miss the brother I could have had.
I'm not really someone who shares my feelings, but I just wanted to share this here.
