I Didn’t Know I Had An Aunt

We went to visit my grandparents’ grave, and the headstone next to theirs was for a woman two years older than my dad with the same last name that died ten years before I was born. Apparently, she died from a heroin overdose, and my parents had no intention of ever telling us that she existed. It was pretty jarring to find out I had an aunt that passed away for the first time at 16.
