It began as soon as we got married. Once the euphoria of the wedding day had dissolved and life had resumed its conventional form, the question arrived. The question. As if it was a query that had been preloaded for years with the wedding acting as a release valve to kick it free. It was members of the family who ventured forward first, earnestly firing their enquiry at us, succumbing to the sheer desperation to just know. We just want to know. Truth be told, it’s a straight-forward question without a straight-forward answer.
“So….when you are having kids?”
Not if. When. The next stage. The wedding is over now. We want something else. Do something else. Have a baby. We want you to have a baby. Go on. Do it.
