Because I'm not Coronabeth. I played my part too well.
Corona was captured by Blood of Eden - the insurgents - at Canaan House shortly after everything went to shit, along with the other survivors that weren't me and Harrow. Neither of us even knew. When John showed up to collect us, they were gone. No bodies, just gone. So they were declared dead.
My parents were notified, just like every House was, of the dead and of the two new lyctors. To my parents, I was a lyctor, and Coronabeth was dead. They declared our birthday as an official day of mourning.
