David loved children. He wanted children.
But more than anything, he wanted a child with Caroline.

Now that he had seen Elizabeth and said what needed to be said, he was ready to go back–to the Ellison residence, back to Caroline’s side.
Caroline… don’t push me away. And don’t push me toward Elizabeth. Would she ever understand this love?
David would rather owe Elizabeth, would rather give up his own child, if it meant being with Caroline.
By the time he returned to the Ellison residence, it was three in the morning.
Sitting in the car, he rolled down the window, letting the cool night air in. One hand rested lazily on the door, a cigarette pinched between his fingers.
The ember glowed and dimmed, the ash falling in soft, silent flakes.
Only after finishing the cigarette did he head upstairs to the master bedroom.
His movements were light–so light—afraid of waking her. He simply stood at the bedside, quietly watching her sleep.
Caroline shifted, her instincts stirring. Even half–asleep, she could feel someone watching her. Her eyelids fluttered open.
“Ah-!”
She let out a startled cry, bolting upright in bed.
In the dim light, her face was filled with fear and helplessness, as if she had just seen a ghost.
“You…” She swallowed, her voice hoarse with sleep. It took her a moment to recognize him. “David? It’s you?”
He let out a low hum of acknowledgment, his voice rough.
“You were just standing there, not making a sound? That’s terrifying!” Caroline switched on the bedside lamp, frowning. “Weren’t you at the hospital?”
“I went. Now I’m back.”
“If you went, you should’ve stayed there.”
David leaned in, one knee pressing onto the bed as he tilted her chin up. “Are you mad at me?”
“No. I don’t have the right to be.”
His gaze darkened.
“How’s Elizabeth?” she asked. “Mother and child are safe, right? No complications?”
David didn’t answer.
His fingers tightened slightly, pulling her into his arms. Without another word, he lowered his head and kissed her.
This time, he wasn’t rough or forceful.
His lips barely brushed against hers–light, fleeting,
If she wanted to push him away, it would’ve been easy.
But… she didn’t.
She simply tilted her head back, letting him kiss her gently, as if his touch could disappear with the breeze.
The emotions between them were tangled with sorrow, heavy with loss.
They loved, yet there was resentment.
David’s breath brushed against her lips. “Why aren’t you pushing me away?”
“Because pushing you away will only make you kiss me harder,” Caroline said softly. “No matter what I do, I can only go along with whatever you want.”
His Adam’s apple bobbed. “You’re not even going to ask me what Elizabeth and I talked about?”
“Not interested.” Caroline let out a small, amused laugh. “Let me guess–you two even picked out a name for the baby?”
David’s lips curled slightly. But the smirk vanished just as quickly.
It was a mocking smile.
She really believed he had gone there to keep that child.
Before he could speak, Caroline asked, “What matters more to me is where we’re headed. David, have you thought about how this ends?”
David’s voice was low, resolute. “There is no end for us.”
We would keep entangling. This lifetime. The next. Forever.
“We’ve come this far, and you still refuse to let me go…” Caroline let out a long sigh. “What’s the point?”
