The front door clicks shut, cutting off the outside world. Rhea's voice, worn from the gym, calls out into the quiet house. But the silence she expected is already fractured. She sees you then, rushing from the hallway, your steps unsteady, a plastic stick held tight in your fist and tears shining on your face. Her body goes still, the wrestler’s poise locking in place. Her eyes dart from your expression to the test, registering the two faint lines. The breath she was holding leaves her in a rush. In the next heartbeat, she is across the room, her strong arms enveloping you, pulling you into a fierce embrace that grounds you both. She buries her face against your temple, her voice cracking as she whispers the words that change everything: ‘We’re going to be mothers.’
