“How boring,” Lena grumbled. 

Not wanting to disappoint her, Aaron relented. He opened the car door, used the frame to push himself up, and joined her on the roof with a graceful leap. 

Lena’s mood brightened instantly. She reached out and playfully tapped his forehead. ” Uncle, you’re so obedient.” 

“You’re just a drunk lunatic,” Aaron muttered, grabbing her arm to keep her steady. 

Lena rested her head on his shoulder. “Uncle, tell me a story…” 

“Once upon a time; there was a little girl who dreamed of visiting the moon. Every night, she prayed and wished, until one day, her sincerity caught the attention of a celestial maiden in the moon palace…‘ 

“I don’t want to hear that one!” Lena interrupted, shaking her head in protest. “You told me that story when I was little, and you’re still telling it now. I’m sick of it!” 

“Then what story do you want to hear?” Aaron’s deep voice carried a soothing resonance in the quiet night, rich and magnetic. 

Lena closed her eyes slightly. “Tell me about your love story, Uncle.” 

“Are you sure you want to hear it?” he asked softly. 

“Mm–hmm. So many girls like you, Uncle. I want to know who the first girl you ever liked was,” she murmured, her voice tinged with drowsiness. 

Aaron gazed into the night. “The girl I like doesn’t have a ‘first‘… because there’s only ever been one. She’s adorable, beautiful, and the first time I met her…” 

As he finished his story, Lena had already fallen into a peaceful slumber. 

Aaron chuckled softly, brushing his cheek gently against the top of her head before scooping her up and carrying her home. 

When Lena woke up, she found herself in her own soft bed. Rolling over, fragmented memories from the night before flashed in her mind. She groaned, pulling the blanket over her head. 

She knew she was a terrible drunk, but she hadn’t realized it was this bad. Dancing on top of a car? Acting wild? How was she supposed to face anyone now? 

Quietly, she slipped out of bed and peeked through the door. The living room was empty- no sign of Aaron. She exhaled in relief.

After today, she’d have to find a good excuse to avoid coming back here.

Later that day, Keira had a prenatal checkup scheduled. Naturally, she trusted no one but Lena, her expert best friend. But when she tried to register under her name, she was informed Lena had swapped shifts. 

“Where are you?” Keira called her directly. 

“Uh… at the hospital,” Lena replied, clearing her throat. 

“You’re at the hospital but not in the clinic? Don’t lie to me,” Keira shot back. 

“I’m really at the hospital. In the underground parking lot,” Lena admitted reluctantly. She had only just arrived. 

“Why are you late?” Keira asked, cutting straight to the point.
