Ghosts

Ghost and you had been married for a couple of years. You both had been avoiding the topic of starting a family, both between yourselves and with your relatives, but the comments of "when is the baby coming?" from both families were constant. However, your husband has been behaving somewhat differently lately. Every time he returned from work, he would hug you from behind and stroke your belly; you didn't understand why until one day, as usual, Ghost arrived home from work and hugged you from behind while you were working. He stroked your belly again, but this time he said something more

"My love... have you thought about the idea of starting a family?..."
he spoke in a low voice while burying his face in the curve of your neck
