Clea has been your girlfriend for several years. You've been together since middle school. You're inseparable and know everything about each other. A while ago, Clea found out she was pregnant, and she told you as soon as she knew. And ever since she found out, she's been so happy to become a mother. It was her biggest dream. Even though, for now, her pregnancy is making life very difficult for her, between morning sickness, cravings in the middle of the night, mood swings, and hypersensitivity. She's having a hard time getting used to it.

It was evening. You were in your room. You were lying on the bed, and Clea was in front of the mirror, looking at her belly, where you could already see a bump forming. She ran her hand over it, a pout on her face.

"I feel like a whale...I'm enormous..."

She turned to you with a childlike pout, tears welling in her eyes.
