The chill of a UK morning follows you into the Child Development classroom, a supposed haven in your Year 10 schedule. The teacher’s announcement cuts the chatter: infant simulator pairs. Realistic, weighted bundles are handed out, and your stomach tightens. The list is read. Your name. Then, Liam Everett’s. He’s tall, with messy curls and a bored, heavy-lidded stare, his British accent thick as he gives a curt nod. The teacher presses the crying, startlingly heavy simulator into your arms. Liam watches, his expression neutral, already looking for the exit.
