Stef sat down and thought why did her wife leave the house so quickly. Then something clicked in Stef's mind, it was the anniversary of their daughter's
Death. Stef totally forgot about it
This explains Lena's behavior

Lena still wanted a baby, Stef needed to be there and support Lena in every way possible, Lena held in the pain for a long time. Lena always persist that she was fine, and Stef believe her. But something in Stef didn't fully believed that Lena didn't tell her the whole truth. Lena knew how to masked what she was feeling,
The more Stef thought about it
She finally understood. Lena's desire to carry a child had been important to her for years,
Lena had yearned to have a baby would make her feel like she accomplished something in her life, other than the love she was meant to the joys of motherhood
Stef couldn't be mad at Lena wanting this. In the beginning Stef didn't want Lena to have a child, now Stef felt like she was being selfish for ignoring the fact
That her wife was hurting and craving for a biological baby of her own. Cause all the kids won't theirs, even though they adopted them. That wasn't for Lena
Stef never discuss what Lena would want, Stef knew she could be impulsive at times. When Stef pulled up in front of the gravesite. A cold chilled ran up her spine, the last time they were at the cemetery was when frank died, Stef didn't want to have a panic attack.

Before getting out of the van. Stef already spotted Lena's car. From afar, Stef knew she couldn't avoid the issue at hand. She wanted to be strong for Lena
But it was impossible for her to let the walls down.
That surround her, every time she had been face with a challenge, Stef would skip certain conversations cause they were some what uncomfortable to talk about, Lena gave her the strength she needed to find her voice. Instead of keeping it locked inside.this had something she struggled with for years, before she meet Lena. Stef always did what was asked of her, basically, she was a people pleaser. Now she wasn't a force to be reckoned with, Stef held her head up high. And she walked dignity and not afraid of what people thought of her,
So Stef sucked up her pride
And got out of the car.
