Her friend didn’t elaborate, so a few minutes later, Tina directly asked Megan how she found Shawn. “Through an agency… It was a private adoption,” she replied, her voice cautious.
Tina pressed for details about his background, but Megan insisted it was confidential.
“Why are you asking all these questions?” she wondered, frowning.
“I think Shawn might be my son,” Tina admitted, showing Megan a photo of Liam with the same birthmark as Shawn.
“It’s a birthmark, Tina. Thousands of people have them,” Megan argued, her voice lowering. “I know this has been rough on you. I’m sorry. You’re grieving. I should’ve been more sensitive.”
“It isn’t just grief, Megan!” Tina snapped. “When I held him, I knew. The birthmark confirms it. You see it, too. Just admit it.”
“Tina, this is insane. Shawn is my son. I adopted him legally,” Megan said, shaking her head and standing.
