Why Didn’t My Parents Want Me? | {THE AND} Hitomi & Laura

Only three years ago, Laura & Hitomi entered into each other’s lives after discovering that they were biological sisters. Put up for adoption at a very young age, Laura was raised as an only-child, apart from her biological parents and siblings. Now after reconnecting, the two sisters talk honestly about growing up in different families, the questions that come accompany that, and the experiences they shared that make their bond even stronger.
