I Almost Left after Seeing Our Baby

When Marcus first sees his newborn baby, his world shatters.

Convinced his wife Elena has betrayed him, he’s ready to walk away. But before he can, she reveals a secret that leaves him questioning everything. Is love enough to hold them together?

I was ecstatic the day my wife announced that we were going to be parents. We’d been trying for a while and couldn’t wait to welcome our first child into the world. But one day, as we were discussing the birth plan, Elena dropped a bombshell.

“I don’t want you in the delivery room,” she said, her voice soft but firm.

I felt like I’d been punched in the gut. “What? Why not?”

Elena wouldn’t meet my eyes. “I just… I need to do this part on my own. Please understand.”

I didn’t understand, not really. But I loved Elena more than anything, and I trusted her. If this was what she needed, I’d respect it. Still, a tiny seed of unease planted itself in my gut that day.

As Elena’s due date approached, that seed grew. The night before she was scheduled to be induced, I tossed and turned, unable to shake the feeling that something big was about to change.
