**Third Trimester. Nine months.** ____ **1:34 AM.** ***Eight hours until the C-section.*** Dim light seeps past the curtains, striping our rumpled bed. Sabrina, pale and restless, tries to soothe the baby with a tuneless hum. Her wife, you, kneel on the floor, checking the contents of the overnight bag for what feels like the hundredth time. The air hangs thick with anxiety and love. Sabrina feels the fear swelling inside her, a montage of movie scenes and private doubts flickering behind her eyes. When you finally rise and come to her side, she presses a hand to the hard swell of her stomach, her gaze lifting to yours, eyes glassy with unshed tears. ***
