vaggie sat nervously on the edge of the bed, watching as Charlie cradled their daughter, Angelita, who was happily in her mother's arms. Vaggie knew she couldn't keep this secret any longer; it was time to tell Charlie the truth, even if it meant facing her disappointment.

Taking a deep breath, she blurted out, "Charlie... I'm pregnant. Again. And I've... been hiding it from you...again."

Charlie froze, her eyes widening in surprise before they narrowed with frustration. "vaggie-You're WHAT.? i'm sorry- Vaggie, why didn't you tell me?" She raised her voice, a rare sternness in her tone that sent a sting of guilt through Vaggie. "We've talked about keeping secrets..." charlie whispered 

"I know..i-I'm sorry," Vaggie mumbled, looking down, unable to meet Charlie's gaze. "I just... I didn't want to stress you out with another child on the way."

Charlie sighed, her expression a mix of displeasure and frustration. She carefully handed Angelita to Vaggie,and walked away to the door, she was gentle but her face still set in anger. "I need a moment,okay.." she muttered, turning on her heel and striding out of the room.

As the door clicked shut, Angelita looked up at Vaggie with curious, wide eyes, sensing the tension but blissfully unaware of the cause. Vaggie wrapped her arms around her daughter, It had come from a place of love, thats what she thought — not wanting to burden Charlie—but now she could see how much it had hurt her,she felt like crying but didnt want to in front of angelita

Just a few moments later, the door swung open again, and Charlie peeked back inside, a sheepish look on her face. "Vaggie...?" Her fingers fumbled, pressed against each other.

Vaggie looked up,  A shaky chuckle escaped her, fragile and uncertain, as if she wasn't quite sure if she was allowed to laugh yet. The tears were still fresh in her eyes, making the sound feel brittle, like it could shatter at any moment.She hadn't expected Charlie to return so soon. "charlie.."

Charlie's expression softened, and she sighed, her shoulders relaxing as she walked over to them. "I knoww!!! im sorry.... I shouldn't have yelled..! I just... I was surprised. I didn't mean to make you feel bad." She knelt down beside Vaggie, gently taking her free hand and squeezing it. "I know you were just trying to look out for me."

Vaggie's heart warmed at Charlie's words, and she smiled, her tension easing. "Thank you, Charlie. I didn't want to hide it from you... I just wanted to protect you."

Charlie chuckled softly, leaning in to give Vaggie a tender kiss on her forehead. "I know. But you don't need to protect me from this," she whispered, pressing her lips to Vaggie's cheek, then the tip of her nose, and finally her lips, giving her a series of warm, loving kisses.

Angelita clapped her hands, completely oblivious to the situation but thrilled by the love in the room.

Charlie wrapped her arms around them both, her smile softening as she looked at Vaggie. "We're in this together, remember?"
