People who were never meant to be
I like the idea of people who are “accidents.” Especially when their parents eventually break up, or better yet, become completely estranged, making these children the only remnant of this failed, temporary pairing that violated all reason. The relationship should never have happened, and it didn’t last long, but now a new person exists because of it. These children aren’t planned, intentional creations, or a logical extension of their parents’ love. They were inadvertant and irrational, and the universe wasn’t really counting on them.
