Chad could never forget that scene, when his sister kicked the bucket. His mum was so distraught she passed out, and his dad could barely stand. He was leaning against the wall, watching his sister's face being covered with a white cloth. She looked like she was sleeping, as if she'd wake up any second, leap into his arms and call him affectionately. His sister, Jade, was gone, and his mum had lost the will to live. She started sleepwalking, became mute, and went a bit mad. The doctor said if they had gotten her to the hospital that night, she might have had a chance, but it was too late now. His mum was racked with guilt, thinking she shouldn't have just taken the kid to a small clinic the night before. In a daze, she wandered to the beach. "My mum was about to lose it, she went to the beach and step by step walked into the sea. She loved Jade so much, couldn't accept that Jade was gone. And that's when she showed up." Chad said.

In the sea.

His mum, about to lose hope after losing her daughter, was found by his dad. His dad dived into the sea to save her, encouraging her to keep living. His mum didn't fight him.

That day, Chad found a kid on the beach. She was pale, looked a lot like his sister.

"Mom, dad. Look, that kid." Chad said.

His dad saw Molly lying on the beach. He left his wife by his son's side, and walked over to see if the kid was still alive.

The kid was cold all over, her arm was swollen and red, and they didn't know how long she'd been abandoned on the beach.

His dad touched her nose and found a faint breath. This kid, she was a real fighter.

"We just lost my sister, and then found a kid on the beach. My mom insisted it was my sister. She kept calling Molly, and my mom was like a madwoman, saying it was my sister's spirit in her. She was saved, and my dad took her to the hospital. While she was being treated, my parents were preparing my real sister's funeral. Once everything was ready, she was discharged. She didn't remember anything, only that her name was Molly, and that she had a brother looking for her. We didn't know what had happened to her. We went to the police, but found no one had reported her missing. In the end, my dad wanted to send her to an orphanage. He had just lost his daughter, was drowning in grief and his wife sleepwalking. He didn't have the energy to care for this sudden extra kid." Chad said. But during that time, Molly always hugged Chad crying and calling him brother, always clinging to him, saying she was scared. His mother cared for her as if she was her own daughter, and in the end, he didn't have the heart to send her to an orphanage. "Molly, do you want to be Jade?" He asked.

Molly didn't understand, but the adults all knew what he meant.

They hoped Molly could live in Jade's place.

"So, you're the brother she was looking for." Chad said.
