Nobody tells you how loud the sound of silence is. You felt like you could hear everything and nothing at the same time. Your eyes darted from Han to your dad and then back again. Han was staring at you trying to take in the news. Your dad looked at you and spoke, a hint of guilt in his voice.

T-this is your brother, Han. Uh your mom- we had some family clashes. She got the custody of Han and I didn’t want to tell you that you had a brother you could never meet. So- so I acted like you were my only child.
