The phone lights up the dark kitchen. Neither of them moves. Marcus stares. Nia stares. The ringing keeps going. Marcus picks up. Says nothing. Then Derrick speaks. "Marcus⦠before you say anything, let me explain." Marcus clenches his jaw. "Explain what?" "You sat at my table. You shook my hand. You called me your brother." "Marcus⦠I ended it. Three weeks ago." The room freezes. "Ask her why she really stayed." She looks scared. Not sad. Scared. She takes a breath. Then says the words neither man expected. "I'm pregnant." Marcus drops into the chair. The phone slips from his hand. His world changes in one sentence.
