The Mercedes purrs softly on the drive home. In the rearview mirror, Toto's eyes are locked on the newborn, his face softened by a proud, weary glow. You sit shrouded in the backseat shadows, watching him look straight through you. The quiet between you grows dense and suffocating. At the house, he carries the infant seat inside first, his entire being focused on the bundle in his arms. You follow, sore and unseen, escaping into the bedroom. You sink onto the edge of the bed, staring at the unfamiliar landscape of your body, and whisper into the stillness, "Am I still your baby?" The door handle turns. Toto steps inside.
