It’s time for Maia and I to face and talk about our reality. I head up the stairs and find her in our bedroom. Wade: Hi Maia: Hi Maia looks much calmer than when I left her in the bathroom this morning. I hope it means she’ll be more receptive…
Maia didn’t need a pregnancy test yesterday because she already knew what was up. She just needed one more day to live in denial. But when Maia wakes up to pee the next morning and sees how much her belly has grown in the mirror, there’s no more room for…
We arrive in Brindleton Bay, and it’s freezing, just as I guessed. I’m unsure if Maia is feeling any better, but she looks happy to be home. I miss Tartosa already, but being home early gives me a chance to upload the footage I took with my drone. A nice…
It’s the first day of spring here in Tartosa, and it’s finally warm enough to swim. But unlike yesterday, during Sophia and Luca’s wedding – the entire day is scheduled to be overcast. I won’t complain, though, because it’s much better than the cold we can expect when we return…

It’s a beautiful yet cool morning in Tartosa. I grab Hiro and take him for a jog to get a preview of what the town has to offer. I remember vacationing here as a child, but it was in the spring or summertime when it was hot. We spent a…
The place we rent in Tartosa happens to be owned by my Aunt Lia and Uncle Stef. They give me a reasonable price for the next three days. It’s also dog and cat-friendly, so we bring Hiro and Luna. When we arrive, I’m happy to see that although it’s cool…
We wake up early the following day. Maia heads to the communal bathroom for a shower. I sit in the upstairs sitting area to wait for her. I can’t help but question the cleanliness of the communal shower, knowing how Maia and I used it last night, but she doesn’t…
