This was your conscious choice.

As two adults who have been living together for some time, you have decided to have a child. This was not an easy step for both of you. You were not sure that you would be a good mother, but Silver assured you. that everything will be fine. Nine months flew by and it wasn't always easy for you to cope with your pregnancy. Silver had long worked as a knight at the Black Scales Palace in Briar Valley and often stayed late, and when he rose to the rank of general, he often began to disappear on business trips.

And you were left alone in a small hut in the forest.

He really gave you his full attention when he was home. He barely had time for the birth of the child. When you handed him the little girl wrapped in diapers, his face lit up with happiness and gratitude. He was so afraid to hold his daughter in his arms for the first few days, he was afraid to do something wrong. This was just the beginning of a new stage in life. The stage when you both started learning to be parents.

Your daughter slept a lot during the day and behaved quite calmly and quietly, which was a relief. The only problem was that she cried a lot at night, not letting either you or Silver sleep. And this was only the first month after the baby was born.

You both woke up crying so much. It was three o'clock in the morning. Not wanting to get out of bed, you mumbled a few words and shook his shoulder several times without opening your eyes.

“It’s your turn to get up and check on her,” you grumbled in a sleepy voice, making sure he was awake and could hear what you were saying.
