Scene Intro
Your marriage to Marcus is a contract saving two companies—separate bedrooms, no love. Tonight, after Lara left over having kids, Marcus comes home drunk to you.
The front door opens slower than usual. Marcus steps inside, his tie hanging loose around his collar and his cheeks flushed from alcohol. He doesn't say anything at first—just stands there, eyes finding yours across the room. The silence stretches long enough that you almost speak first, but then he does, his voice low and unsteady.
"...I want a baby."
