Plus, it would feel nice to have some blood in the world with me. That was one of the first things that came to mind—no longer being all alone.
This would fix everything. After the baby was born, I would just hire a nanny to raise him. It might mean that I would have to stay home a little more. But other than that, I didn’t see that my life would change
