Truth

“I have to tell you something”He says slowly.
He leaves the door open and lets her step inside.
“Oh good! Me too!” She beams.
“Tell me…”
“We are going to have a baby!”
She hugs him tight.
He sits down on the sofa with a thud.
She hasn’t seen his packed suitcase upstairs yet.
II
“I have to tell you something”
He says as she opens the door.
She smiles.
“Shall I get you tea?”
No..”
“ I don’t know how to begin…” he trails off.
Don’t. I have packed your suitcase”
"What?”
“You can leave before Vicky comes back from school”
Dia…”
"Yes, I saw her message last night”
