Hillary Harris lived with her husband and daughter in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. However, she was thinking of moving. Not because she didn’t like the house or the neighborhood, but because of the house next door. First of all, she hated that her family had to share the driveway with the neighbors, while she also disliked the fact that tenants(租户) came and went to that house all the time. And when a couple in their 50s moved next door, it wasn’t any different. Hillary felt that she had had enough, so she didn’t even try to be warm towards them.
“Here we go again,”she thought. “Now what?” As she admitted, she was “turned off” by the woman next door and that they were cold to each other.
“She would not accept me anyhow, ”Dawn Johnson, the new neighbor recalled. “I would come to get my mail, shut it and watch her walk into the house. ” But everything was about to change in an unbelievable way.
Hillary knew she had been adopted(收养)when she was a baby, as well as she knew she had several halfsiblings (兄弟姐妹). In fact, she had already managed to reunite with three of them through the Internet. But there was still one half-sibling that she couldn’t track down. All she knew was that her name was Dawn Johnson. She had found three other half- siblings on the Internet, but she was having no luck with Dawn. She was beginning to think that she’d never find her.
When she realized her new neighbor’s name was Dawn, she kind of had a feeling that she just might be her sister. She learned that the woman’s first name was Dawn and that she was from Greenwood-the same town where Dawn Johnson had lived according to what she had learned from her father, Wayne Clouse. She told her husband, “Her name is Dawn-what if she’s my sister?” They both laughed and said, “No way! No way could that be. ”
