When a black woman gives birth to twins as a surrogate mother, she’s overjoyed to know they’re healthy and proudly hands them to their parents. But one week later, the doctor calls her and reveals something shocking.

At 37 weeks, two beautiful black babies were born by C-section. Their parents, Risha and Joe, eagerly awaited the birth of their twins outside of the delivery room. The girls were in excellent health, but being slightly premature, they had to stay in the hospital for about two weeks as a precaution. Joe had to go to work a few days later, but Risha stayed by her sister’s side most of the time. Although Abigail breastfed the little ones, she also pumped some milk, allowing her sister to participate in feeding her baby girls.

As a surrogate, Abigail had always known that she would have to part with the babies, but she still felt an unexpected sense of loss. The psychologist who had supported her during this journey had warned her that it was inevitable to feel connected to the children because she carried them in sight of her for almost nine months and contributed towards half of their DNA. Abigail allowed herself to process the intense feelings. She would become the loving aunt she always wanted to be. After all, she was still young, and one day, perhaps in the not-so-distant future, she might find a man and have a family with him. The thought that crossed her mind was surprising to her.

After two weeks in the hospital, Risha and Joe went home with the babies. Although Abigail struggled with her emotions, she thought it best to give her sister some alone time with the babies. She decided to go on a week-long holiday to give her body and soul some time to heal. She agreed with Risha to have no contact during this time. On her return, the first thing she would do would be to visit, but as the aunt of Lacy and Laura.

During her well-deserved vacation, she had the time to think about her life and the direction she wanted it to take. However, it was impossible for her not to dwell on the past as well and to think about the choices that led her to becoming a surrogate for her sister. Risha and Abigail grew up in a poor neighborhood under difficult circumstances. If it wasn’t for the love and affection they had for each other, they might have lost their way.

Abigail was the younger of the two. As a way of coping with the challenges in her life, she started focusing on sports. She was a great athlete, and when her talent was recognized, she received a scholarship to go study at a nearby college. Risha was never jealous of her younger sister’s success. All she wanted was to find a good man, get married, and become a mother. She started dating Joe late in high school, and it was apparent that the two would one day get married.

He was indeed the good man she was looking for. It was no wonder that Abigail was the maid of honor at the wedding. When she showed up at the venue and started answering questions about her life, everybody was amazed at the success this young woman from a humble neighborhood had achieved. She had become a pro athlete, and it was clear that she was successful in both her sports and academics. The only thing missing was a man at her side, or so the people thought.

It might have been her bad experience with boys from her neighborhood and school, but Abigail did not have many aspirations of getting married herself. She also did not see herself raising a child in this uncertain world they were living in. If she ever felt the need to cuddle or nurture a child, she would help her sister with her kids. Becoming the favorite aunt who usually gets the opportunity to spoil the children was as far as her aspirations went.

After being married for three years without conceiving, Risha was becoming anxious. Being a mother was all she had ever wanted from life, but it seemed like fate was mocking her. A visit to a fertility specialist revealed some bad news. Unfortunately, it seemed like she would never be able to conceive on her own. Further tests revealed that there was nothing wrong with her husband Joe. It was a very hard thing to process, and Risha fell into a deep depression. It was only when Abigail came to stay with her sister and Joe during her spring break that Risha finally broke out of the dark cloud of heaviness.

Abigail was able to convince her sister that there were other options available. The couple could consider adoption. Alternatively, they could opt for surrogate pregnancy. Whatever path she chose, there was no reason for this mother-at-heart to allow her barrenness to become her destiny.

Risha and Joe started considering all their options. They did some research on IVF and the cost thereof and were forced to exclude it. They didn’t feel ready for adoption, but they could consider surrogacy. It seemed like the couple were leaning towards this option so Joe’s DNA would be part of their baby. They knew the hardest part would be to find a suitable surrogate mother. When discussing this option with Dr. Thompson, they were warned that negotiations with the surrogate were the riskiest part of the process.

A woman might agree to be a surrogate and give up the baby to the couple, but during the pregnancy, she could develop an emotional bond with it, and despite papers being signed before the birth, a legal battle could ensue. The biological mother or surrogate somehow always had the final say. The couple took months to weigh the odds. Throughout this period, Risha often spoke to her sister. Abigail was the only person besides Joe that she truly trusted. She was able to share all her hopes and fears with her younger sister. She could also see the burden of the decision was weighing heavily on Joe. Some days, she felt like a failure as a woman, but then Abigail was always able to give her some perspective and uplift her spirit.

Abigail was doing her final exams, and after writing the last paper, she went out to celebrate for a final time with a group of friends. Their paths would split after graduation, and it was probable that some of them might never see each other again. It was time to make some big decisions, and most of them didn’t know where to start.

The pressure weighed heavily on all of them. That night, Abigail got drunk in an attempt to ease her worries. The next morning, she got out of bed with a bit of a hangover and several regrets. Taking stock of her life, she suddenly knew what she had to do next. So she got into her car and drove the distance to her sister’s home, not letting them know that she was coming. After knocking on their door, she did not waste time informing them of her purpose for visiting. She was going to carry a baby for her sister and Joe. It was the best way to repay Risha for the love, protection, and support she had given her throughout their lives.

Risha and Joe were without words. They had never even thought to ask for such a sacrifice from Abigail. After all, she was an athlete with a bright future ahead of her. They didn’t even know how to process the offer that was on the table. But as they started thinking about it, there was no better option than to accept this tremendous gift Abigail was willing to give them.

Despite the two sisters trusting each other with all their hearts, legal documentation was still drawn up. The procedure would entail that eggs from Abigail would be extracted and fertilized with sperm from Joe. After the procedure, the embryos would be implanted in Abigail’s womb. There was a chance that the procedure might not be successful immediately; therefore, more than one embryo would be implanted to increase the chances of success.

When the procedure was done, they simply had to wait and hope. Two weeks later, the doctors were able to confirm that the pregnancy had taken place. They were cautiously optimistic that Abigail would carry the baby to full term. During the examination at six weeks, the doctors had some unexpected news. It seemed like the couple would become the proud parents of not one, but two babies. They were fraternal twins. It would take some time to determine the gender of the babies, but so far, they looked perfectly healthy.

Abigail and Risha had the most wonderful time together. They didn’t know that they could grow even closer, and yet here they were. For the duration of the pregnancy, Abigail had moved in with her sister and Joe to allow them to experience every part of the process in unity. This was truly a sacrifice of love. Leaving the twins behind was a sacrifice as well, but a week in the sun cut off from the world did Abigail wonders. She was well-rested, she had time to process her emotions, and finally felt ready to face life full-on. The flight back home gave her ample time to put her plans in motion for the next phase in her life. She would start applying for jobs close to her sister, as she wanted to be independent but also have proximity to her nieces.

The moment that Abigail switched on her phone at the airport, she found an alarming number of missed calls from Dr. Thompson’s office. She immediately phoned the doctor, who politely but urgently requested her to come and see him. There was something he had to share with her, but he simply could not do that over the phone. Abigail drove to the hospital directly from the airport. As she was speeding through traffic, she was anxious about what news the doctor was going to share. She hoped all was well with her nieces, but since she and Risha had agreed on going no contact, she had no way of knowing for sure. Fortunately, as she arrived, she could immediately see the doctor.

What he told her was shocking. “I don’t know how to say this to you, but there’s no way I can keep this information from you. We did some tests after the birth of the twins. It may sound extremely shocking, but through our DNA testing, we found

out that the twins have different fathers. Lacy has Joe’s DNA, but Laura has a different father. I’m sorry to ask you something as invasive as this, but have you been with a man in the week before the IVF procedure?”

Abigail could not believe what was unfolding. One evening of stupidity and overindulgence had turned into a huge mistake. When she had woken up next to Roger the night after submitting her final paper and getting drunk with her friends, she knew she had made a huge mistake. She had dressed and left without a word. Roger was in no way a man she wanted to be with, let alone the man she wanted as the father of her children.

“Have you spoken to my sister?” was the only thing she could say. Dr. Thompson first wanted to share the news with Abigail before informing the rest of the people involved. Abigail took only a few seconds to think, but then she knew what she had to do. She drove to her sister for one of the most difficult conversations she would ever have in her life. Risha was over the moon to see her sister, but the troubled look on her face was cause for concern. Had something terrible happened on her vacation?

Abigail was glad that Joe was still at work, as it afforded her the opportunity to come clean to her sister first. When she finally told Risha what the doctor had revealed to her, there were a few moments of silence. The two sisters cried together, not knowing exactly what to do. Joe walked in on the two sisters hugging each other, both holding a baby in their arms. Risha took Joe into another room, and they spoke for quite a while. Then they came out, and it was Joe who led the conversation.

“I know it may be a little strange, but would you consider moving in with us? We can co-parent the girls. That way you can be with your baby, and we can help if you need support. Laura and Lacy can grow up as sisters, and when they’re old enough, we will tell them the truth. You made such a huge sacrifice for us. Now it’s time for us to return the favor. What do you say?”

Although it was a very unusual agreement, the whole situation worked out for the best. Abigail raised Laura as a single mother while being the wonderful aunt to Lacy she always promised to be. Abigail and Risha knew they would set an example of sisterly love for their beautiful girls and that their blended family would forever be a blessing for all of them. What a shocking twist!
