Ducky Love

Chapter 17: Decisions

13 months have passed since that court hearing.

And I have a big decision to make.

I want to have a child.

And since I only have 11 months to live, time is ticking by.

But I don't know whether it's too early.

But I need to do it.

Now or never.

"Stampy?" I call shakily.

I find him out on the balcony, staring into the town.

"Stampy?

"Yeah?"

I decide to sit and talk for a bit.

"What are you doing?" I ask.

"Just thinking." He says, still staring into the distance.

"I want to have a child." I say.

Stampy is so surprised he turns around.

"Really? Are you sure it's not too early in our relationship?"

Well, I'm over halfway to my death, so it's pretty late if you ask me.

"No." I say simply.

"How bad do you want it?" he says.

"Almost more than you." I say.

I hope I'm not freaking him out.

"I guess we can try." he says.

And he stands.

"Now?!" I say, not believing he would agree so quickly.

"Unless you want to wait." He says.

And after months of peaceful resting, I finally feel a feeling that I haven't for a long time.

Scared.
