The morning light filtered through the blinds, casting long shadows across the living room. The air was thick with unspoken tension. You sat rigid on Carlos’s couch, the TV’s static glow reflecting in your wide eyes. Across from him, Carlos lounged in casual indifference, a picture of relaxed ease, completely oblivious to the seismic shift occurring in the room. The silence stretched, heavy and suffocating, as you gripped your knees, the secret of your pregnancy burning in your chest. It was the calm before the storm.
