My aunt, who was white, gave birth to a dark-skinned baby. Her husband, also white, left her, even though she swore she never cheated.
We didn’t see him again. 18 years later, I saw his name scheduled for a visit —I work at a doctor’s clinic.
I was shocked when he came in with a young boy and a woman.

I checked his file and learned they were indeed his wife and son.
This confirmed that my aunt had never cheated; he must have had a dark-skinned ancestor he’d never known about, and that’s where those genes came from.
