They Swapped Us in the Hospital. He Swapped Us at the Wedding.

The night before our wedding, Sean kneels in front of me and asks — politely — if he can marry my sister Willa first. "Just for two years," he says. "You're tougher. She's fragile."He doesn't know I'm six weeks pregnant.She does.So I smile. I say yes. I cancel our marriage license, board a flight across the ocean, and disappear.Three glasses of champagne forced down my throat at his wedding. A miscarriage on a banquet hall chair. And a smile from my sister as she calls it "just my period."Ten years later, he sees me at an auction in Paris — and the teenage boy standing beside me has his eyes.
