Sophia’s POV

As I return home, a wave of desolation washes over me. Alexander’s absence is palpable, and I find myself longing for his company. Surprisingly, his presence has grown on me, and I enjoy the moments we spend together. My hand instinctively rests on my stomach, where a ti⁵ny life may already be taking shape. The thought fills me with both excitement and a twinge of sadness, knowing that our paths will diverge once I give birth.

I can’t help but question Alexander’s ability to care for our child. He’s a man who doesn’t even want to get married, and I wonder if he truly understands the responsibilities that come with parenthood. But then again, I remind myself that our arrangement is merely a contract. It is not my place to worry about his intentions or his capabilities as a father.

    Sophia’s POV I stared at Alexander's face and panicked. How dare he appear here? The scene was chaotic for a while, and my mind went blank. Feeling exposed and vulnerable, I close the door behind me, creating a small barrier between us and the rest of the world. If I don't make some amends now, my roommates will find out about the surrogacy. “Sophia, open the door. We need to talk,” Tyler says, but I don’t respond, knowing full well they are about to barrage me with a tirade of questions. I quickly grab a rag and clean the floor with it. Then, I hid the test under my bed before walking to the closed door. Jake’s voice reaches me, “What exactly are you hiding, Sophia? Open the door or I’ll break in.” I was so nervous that I grabbed Alexander's clothes and said, "Listen, Alexander, this is not the place you should be. I will open the door later and you can get out immediately. Don't say anything. I will handle all this by myself." He stared at me and frowned, "How do you want to

Do we need to meet up? How do you feel?”I appreciate his concern, but there’s something more significant that I need to share with him. Gathering my courage, I blurt out, “Actually, there’s something else. The pregnancy test came back positive. I’m pregnant.”There’s a brief silence on the other end of the line, and then I hear Alexander’s voice once again. “Really?”I nod. “Yeah. We can still have a few more tests to confi

I am confident that we can make this covenant hold."Alexander's expression was conflicted as he looked at me, "Sophia, I can't bear the thought of you making such a sacrifice.
