Lily sighed and waved her hand. "I met him at a gala about ten months ago. I was stupid, and slept with him even though we didn't know each other, Obviously, I never heard from him again; and when I told him I was pregnant, he just asked where to send the child I felt my shoulders slump slightly. "I'm sorry."

My sister shook her head. "It's alright. We're happy the way things are, aren't we?" she cooed, leaning down to nuzzle Olivia's nose with her own. But then she turned her gaze to me, her expression growing serious. "So, want to tell me what's going on with you and Noah? Things seemed... tense earlier."

I sighed, my hand stilling on Olivia's belly. I had never been able to keep secrets from my sister, and the weight of everything I had been carrying suddenly felt too heavy to bear alone.

"Oh, Lily," I started, my voice cracking slightly, "everything's such a mess.

Suddenly, Olivia's cries pierced through the room. Lily, who had been quietly enjoying her meal, started to rise with a sigh, placing her napkin on the table.

"I've got it," he said confidently, striding over to the bassinet where little Olivia was squirming. "You rest, Lily. You deserve a break."

Lily hesitated, halfway out of her chair, her brow furrowed. "Are you sure? She probably needs her diaper changed, and..."

Noah shrugged her off. "I can handle it. Really, sit and enjoy your meal."

Lily and I exchanged twin glances of shock and confusion. Noah, changing a diaper on his own? Was I dreaming?
