The morning light crept softly through the thin curtains of Harmony’s small Parisian apartment, casting a gentle glow on the scattered sketches and canvases that filled the room. She lay still for a long moment, eyes closed, as if trying to hold onto the fading warmth of the night before.
The memory of Ramiel was vivid the way his voice softened when he spoke, the way his eyes searched hers like he was looking for something lost. Their night together had been fleeting, but for Harmony, it felt like an eternity wrapped in a fragile hope. Yet beneath that hope, a quiet fear simmered.
Days passed, and Harmony became increasingly aware of the changes within her body an unfamiliar tenderness, a swelling secret growing quietly with each sunrise. At first, she was unsure, afraid to confront the truth. But as the signs grew undeniable, she knew she was carrying more than just memories.
Sonia was the first to know. One rainy afternoon, as they shared coffee in a small café tucked away from the bustling streets, Harmony reached across the table and whispered her secret. Sonia’s eyes softened with understanding and strength, offering comfort without judgment.
“You’re not alone, Harmony,” Sonia said firmly. “You’re stronger than you think, and I’ll be with you every step of the way.”
Harmony smiled, tears prickling at the corners of her eyes. She did not regret linking Sonia with Monsieur Dupont as well. She had followed Harmony a month after making them two women on the rise in Paris.The road ahead was uncertain, and the thought of raising a child alone was daunting. But the life growing inside her was a beacon a reminder that love, in its purest form, could emerge even from a single, imperfect moment.
Meanwhile, back in Africa, Ramiel’s world moved at its usual frantic pace. Meetings, calls, and endless negotiations filled his days, yet his mind often wandered back to Paris, to the woman whose face haunted his dreams. He found himself buying more art, visiting galleries, and replaying the brief moments they shared, searching desperately for a clue to her identity.
He wondered if fate would ever bring them together again. But as the days slipped by, hope felt fragile, slipping through his fingers like sand.
Unbeknownst to Ramiel, their lives were already bound in ways neither could have imagined. The secret growing quietly within Harmony’s womb was a silent promise a new beginning forged from a night that neither expected.
