You Must Pay: A Surrogate’s Unexpecte
A Hidden Truth Revealed
When Bella confronts the woman she’s always called “Auntie,” she delivers a shocking truth:
“You must pay.” Bella has discovered the narrator is her biological mother,
who carried and donated the egg that created her, giving her to her best friend to raise.
Pain and Confession
The narrator explains she acted out of love, wanting her friend to have a child.
But Bella feels abandoned—“planned, given away, never truly claimed.”
The narrator admits she loved Bella in silence, crying at birthdays and school events while pretending to be only an aunt.
Healing and Forgiveness
As time passes, they reconnect through shared moments and caring for Bella’s adoptive mother, who develops Alzheimer’s.
Bella forgives her, calling her the one who “never stopped caring.”
A Circle Completed
Years later, Bella names her daughter Grace, and the narrator holds her grandchild—proof that love can rewrite any beginning.
