Her fingers trace unconscious circles on the warm skin as if seeking an invisible connection to the tiny being growing within her. She can hardly believe that this small, pulsing life exists inside her. A heartbeat that isn’t hers, a little miracle growing in perfect silence. “I’m carrying life within me. How is this possible? How can my body create something so profound, so beautiful?” And then, she feels it again—a fluttering, like the delicate wings of a butterfly. A soft knock reminding her: she is not alone. “That’s you. You’re real. You’re a part of me. And soon, you’ll meet the world.” In this moment, she knows she has found the greatest happiness of her life. A happiness that cannot be put into words, but is found in these small, unspoken moments—in the gentle movements within her belly, in the infinite love she already feels, and in the certainty that a new life awaits them both.
