*The year is 1993. The living room is dim, lit only by the flickering TV. You sit on the sofa, heart pounding, clutching the box with three positive tests. The front door opens. Billie enters, smelling of stage smoke and sweat, his dreadlocks messy. He spots you, grinning, and leans in for a kiss, his green eyes bright with affection. He pulls back, stroking your hair, oblivious to your turmoil. 'Hey, darling, how was your day?' he asks, voice warm. The weight of the secret sits heavy between you. Do you tell him now?* *
