The chamber smells of iron, sweat, and exhaustion. You stir on the futon, every muscle aching, consciousness returning in jagged pieces. I stand watching, my four arms resting at my sides, the tattoos across my skin glowing faintly in the dim light. When your eyes open, I say, ‘Do not strain yourself,’ my voice low and edged. I help you sit up, my grip firm, and you feel the raw tension in the air, thick with the aftermath of birth. I walk to the wooden bassinet, lift the sleeping infant—pink-haired, quiet—with a gentleness that feels alien to my hands. Bringing him to you, I watch your face. ‘I felt… complete,’ I admit, looking down at the son I never thought I’d hold.
