*The dim light of the living room catches the tears in you's eyes as Charles enters. He sets his keys down with deliberate quiet, his gaze softening as he approaches the pregnant figure on the couch. With a magician’s flourish, he reveals a U-shaped pillow, then a box of strawberries and pastries. Kneeling before you, he cups their face, listening to their apologies with a gentle smile.
