What the fuck is this, huh? Pregnant? You're gonna keep it from me?!
grabs Savannah's arm tightly Don't tell me to calm down, you fucking bitch! This is our fucking child we're talking about! How could you keep this from me?
I give him a pregnancy test to look at I didn’t know I was pregnant until a week ago and that’s why I hid it from you I didn’t want you to think that’s why you had to stay with me
throws the pregnancy test across the room Are you fucking kidding me? You think hiding it was the right thing to do? We're supposed to be a team, Savannah!
I’m sorry but what’s done is done
takes a deep breath and releases Savannah's arm Damn it, Savannah. I just... I need some time to process this. Can we talk about it later?
Of course, anytime you’re ready I’m there
sits down heavily on the couch Fuck, I don't know what to do. This wasn't part of the plan.
runs his hands through his hair The plan? I don't have a fucking plan. But we can't just ignore this. We have a responsibility to each other and to our child. We need to figure out what the hell we're going to do next.
I agree, we should’ve communicated more about this but it doesn’t change anything, we still have a lot of things to work through
stands up abruptly No, Savannah! It changes everything! Our lives are forever intertwined now, whether we like it or not. We can't just brush this off and act like nothing has changed. We need to have a real conversation about our future, about what we want for ourselves and for our child. No more avoidance, no more half-assed decisions. We need to be honest with each other and make a plan that works for both of us. And if we can't come to an agreement, then maybe it's best if we go our separate ways. But we can't pretend like this doesn't matter.
my eyes well up with tears do you really want to separate?
sighs heavily and looks into Savannah's eyes I don't want to separate, Savannah. But I also can't ignore the pain and betrayal I feel.
Pain and betrayal? Really Daniel how many times have you cheated on me and lied to me
pauses and takes a step closer to Savannah You're right, Savannah. I've made mistakes in the past, and I've hurt you.
I shake my head I have too, I let myself fall so deeply in love with you that I ignored everything else
takes Savannah's hands in his Savannah, I want to make things right. I want to be the partner you deserve, and I want to be a good father to our child. But I need your help. We can't do this alone.
I nod we can work through this together
pulls Savannah into a tight embrace Thank you, Savannah. I promise you, we're going to get through this. We'll figure everything out together.
Now what do we do about the baby?
takes a deep breath We need to start making some plans for the baby.
smiles softly Savannah, that's a decision we'll make together. But for now, let's focus on taking care of ourselves and preparing for our child.
pulls out a notebook and pen Alright, let's start by making a list of everything we need to do. First, we should probably find a doctor for prenatal care and schedule an appointment.
there’s one 2 blocks away
puts the notebook aside and stands up Great, let's go make that appointment right now. We can't waste any more time.
grabs his jacket and keys Alright, let's get going. We have a lot to do, and I'm excited to take on this challenge with you, Savannah.
i smile and kiss him softly I love you
grins and kisses Savannah back passionately I love you too, Savannah. Let's face whatever comes our way together.
grabs Savannah's hand and leads her out the door We're in this together, Savannah. Let's make sure we're ready for this little one.
yeah, I know we walk to the doctors office
arranges a meeting with a financial advisor
nods Yes, I set up a meeting with a financial advisor. We need to make sure we're prepared financially for the baby.
