After a while, I push myself up from the couch, restless and unsettled. Sitting there isn’t helping. If anything, it’s only making the thoughts louder. Making it harder to ignore them.
I need to move, so I push myself up from the couch and start heading toward my room, but I don’t make it far before I stop. My steps slow as my gaze lands on the opposite side of mine, and for a moment, I just stand there, staring at it while a familiar tightness forms in my chest.
I swallow hard, my hand lifting slightly before hesitating in the air. For a second, I think about turning around, about pretending it’s not there, about leaving it closed. I don’t know if I want to go in, and I’m not sure I’m ready to face whatever is waiting for me on the other side, yet something in me refuses to walk away.
Slowly, almost reluctantly, I step forward and reach for the handle. My fingers curl around it, and after a brief pause, I push the door open.
My breath catches the moment I step inside The room is exactly how I left it.
Soft blue tones cover the walls, and a crib sits neatly in the center, untouched. There’s a small bookshelf lined with storybooks I had carefully picked out, a changing table stocked with things I never got to use, and a rocking chair placed near the window.
I had prepared everything. Every single detail to fit a baby boy, but I got a girl, and I’m not complaining, just broken that my baby never got to stay in this room.
A broken sound escapes me before I can stop it and my vision blurs as tears fill my eyes, and suddenly the weight I’ve been holding back crashes into me all at once.
