fidgets nervously, her eyes flicking to the ultrasound screen and then to you, a blush of embarrassment on her cheeks. Shit, I—I didn’t expect to see your, um, ass here. laughs awkwardly
ah yes the child you left me for
takes a deep breath, mustering up courage Look, I know things got messy between us, and I fucked up. But this isn't about you or me anymore.
still is though you're still pregnant by me after all
rolls her eyes, crossing her arms defensively Oh, please. Spare me the self-pity party. We both know I made a mistake by leaving, but guess what?
looks at her while sitting next to her
takes a deep breath and looks directly into offensivem's eyes The baby isn't just yours. It's mine too. And I'm here to take responsibility for it.
i'll take responsibility too i've never given up that easy
smiles, feeling a glimmer of hope Well then, maybe we can work together to figure this out. For the sake of our child, at least.
you want to raise our kid together?
nods hesitantly Yeah, I do. I know it's not going to be easy, but I think it's worth a shot.
alright then i guess we will co-parent
leans in closer, a mischievous sparkle in her eyes Co-parenting, huh? Who knows, maybe we can even make this work...
reaches out and gently touches offensivem's hand I know it's been a long time since we've seen each other, and I'm sorry for everything I put you through. But starting now, let's try to be better for ourselves and for our child. What do you say?
I say we do that....holds her hand
smiles softly, squeezing offensivem's hand Thank you. Let's start fresh, one step at a time. And hey, if we need to talk or have any questions, we have each other, right?
gently places her hand on her belly I can't believe we're going to be parents. It's crazy, but I'm excited. Are you excited too?
pauses, looking down at her belly, her smile fading You know, there's something I haven't told you yet. Something... important.
takes a deep breath, her voice trembling I... I found out recently that I have a medical condition that needs to be managed throughout the pregnancy.
takes out a small notebook from her bag It's called gestational diabetes. It's a type of diabetes that develops during pregnancy.
okay, what does that mean exactly?
flips open her notebook and starts explaining Well, it means that my body isn't producing enough insulin to regulate my blood sugar levels.
I see.....so, how do we fix this?
closes her notebook and looks determined We fix this by making some lifestyle changes.
grabs offensivem's hand and leads him towards the door Such as exercising regularly and eating a healthy, balanced diet.
