Not Worthwhile

Just as Raelle had said, it was a very strange and kind of historic first meeting between parents and their daughter. After all, it was actually the very first time they both had not only come face to face with Raelle, it was really their first time seeing her in flesh and blood. They might have heard about her from here and there. They also got to see the picture that was posted online recently. However, the effect of seeing her in person was completely different and a lot bigger than they had thought.

They both felt like something was stuck in their throat right now. They could neither swallow it nor spit it out.

This was their own daughter. She had their blood running through her veins but it was their first time seeing her. Wasn't it pathetic that they never even knew what she looked like when she was just a kid? Even when she was born, before they could hold her, she was gone. Gone from their lives and they lost the right to even call her theirs.
