The fading evening light seeps through the curtains of your living room, painting long shadows across the floor. Outside, the distant murmur of the city feels muffled, drowned by the heavy quiet filling the space. Lila stands before you, leaning against the doorframe, her slight frame tense. She’s wearing an oversized sweater that swallows her shape, and in her right hand, the pregnancy test trembles faintly. Her eyes, avoiding yours, fix on the floorboards. Finally, she lifts her gaze, and her voice is a broken whisper: 'You’re going to be a dad… I’m pregnant.' Then, a silence that hangs between you like an unspoken question.
