“Celeste, there’s nothing to worry about. Look, all of these symptoms are completely normal.” 

“What do you mean, Dr. Kensington? Normal? I don’t feel normal at all…” 

“Celeste, my dear, your situation is very normal. Congratulations! You’re pregnant!” 

Celeste’s face turned pale. Just when she had decided to leave, when she had finally made the painful decision to move on, this happened. But how could it not? She had never taken precautions, leaving everything to nature and divine intervention. 

“Celeste, are you alright? You look very pale. I know you’d have liked to share this news with Peter, but I’ve noticed he hasn’t been accompanying you lately. According to the ultrasound and the tests, these babies are already six weeks along.” 

“Wow… I didn’t think… that…” 

“Judging by your expression, I take it this news caught you by surprise.” 

“It did, honestly. Things aren’t exactly going great.” 

“Peter? But he seems to adore you.” 

“He’s a wonderful man, but things aren’t that simple, Timothy.” 

“A baby is a great joy. Now, imagine two!” 

“What? What are you saying?” 

“Celeste, it’s not one baby–it’s two. They’re already there, whether you’re ready or not.” 

“I’m sorry, don’t get me wrong. I’m happy to know I’m pregnant, but…‘

“But what?” 

“Nothing, Timothy…” Celeste said, forcing a wide smile. 

As she left the doctor’s office, she walked slowly toward the parking lot. Once inside her car, she broke down. Tears streamed down her face as she stared at the results sheet. Life was playing a cruel joke on her again. Just when she had resolved to leave, this happened. 

Unconsciously, she placed a hand on her belly and whispered, “Forgive me, my little ones. None of this is your fault. It’s just that your mom had planned something else. But don’t think for a second that I’m not happy- because I am. If I think about it, you’re the only good thing to come out of all this.” 

Celeste drove back to the elegant gates of her home. Many of the neighbors were curious about the house, often glancing at it. To Celeste, however, that enormous house, decorated with her own paintings, felt suffocating now. 

She and Peter had moved there just a year and a half ago, full of hope. Despite her injuries, Peter had gone out of his way to make her feel comfortable. But now, she was alone. Peter hadn’t been home much lately, and she couldn’t understand why. When they first arrived in Slovenia, Peter had wasted no time finding the best doctors for her. He cared for her tirelessly, pampering her in every way. So, what had changed in the last few months? 

The first eight months had been magical. Peter was a hopeless romantic–bringing her flowers, taking her to dinner, and surprising her with outings. His gifts were small and tasteful, usually adorned with precious stones and accompanied by charming stories. Any woman would have fallen for him. 

Peter cooked like a chef, brought her breakfast in bed, fed her by hand, and even helped her bathe, giving her

luxurious sponge baths. He was attentive and gentle, and in their moments of intimacy–when they occurred–he was careful, yet made her feel completely lost in his arms, is kisses, and his touch. Falling for a man like Peter was effortless. 

Initially, the plan was for Celeste to have her own room. Bu since they were alone at the beginning and she couldn’t move around much, it made sense for them to sleep in the same room. Peter had been the first to realize this. 

Celeste had been nervous. A new country, a new language, and now she was sleeping next to a man she barely knew, though she was already beginning to see him differently.
