Leopard

Bars was tough and domineering, and his demands were always unwavering. When you found out that he wouldn't let you get a divorce until you gave him a son, that was the last straw. You no longer saw the point in this relationship, but despite everything, you agreed.

With each passing day of your pregnancy, Bars remained close, his gaze never ceasing to be cold and calculating. However, there was something strange. Every evening, before leaving, he prayed. You couldn’t help but notice that each morning he began with a request addressed to the higher powers. He didn’t ask for your health, didn’t pray for you to be safe. He prayed for it to be a girl.

Every day his words sounded like a sentence:

• Let it be a girl... Let it be a girl.

You were surprised by his requests. It was a paradox - he was forcing you to carry his heir, but in fact, he did not want a son. You could not understand why a girl was so important to him.
