paces nervously, rubbing her belly Richard... your baby... we need you.
calm down Monica I'm here now… let's just breath and see what happens…
stops pacing, looks into SkyBlueAwe's eyes I know, but everything feels so uncertain. We don't know how to handle this situation.
okay… we'll take this step by step
nods, trying to steady herself Alright, but first, we need to make sure you're not in any danger. The sea can be unforgiving.
sits down on a nearby rock, still rubbing her belly Richard, we have to decide what to do about our child. Should we keep it?
have you considered...keeping it?
voice quivering Of course, I've considered it. But the risks... the challenges... can we really give our child a chance at a normal life?
why can't it have a normal life? Your my child's mother. He/She needs you both
stands up, determined You're right, SkyBlueAwe. Our child deserves a chance at a normal life.
I am its father, so I will protect both of you with every thing I got, no matter what
pauses for a moment, then takes a deep breath Alright, Richard. Let's do this together. Let's create a future for our child, no matter what it takes.
ok how far along are you?
looks down, feeling overwhelmed I... I'm about five months along. Time is running out, and we need to make decisions quickly.
you could still have time….I was gone 2 months away from here. That means there's still 3 months left before the child would be due…
<Syrena and SkyBlueAwe begin making plans for their future, determined to create a safe and nurturing environment for their unborn child. They start searching for a suitable place to live, both above and below water, and gather resources to ensure their child's well-being.>
the next day I come back, and I see Syrena smiling hey babe
smiles brightly Richard! Welcome back. We've been making some progress. Look, we found a beautiful island above water that we can turn into our home.
excitedly And we've already started gathering supplies and furniture.
