Summary
As TK and Carlos embrace parenthood together, moving into a new house coincides with the second anniversary of Gabriel’s death, and both Carlos and Jonah are struggling with their sleep. But there’s another second anniversary coming up – and one sleepless night, Carlos finds inspiration through Jonah for how to celebrate two years married to TK.
Carlos stands still, shakes his head.
“Carlos?”
“I get it,” Carlos says, smiling as his eyes well with tears, silvery in the low winter sunlight. “I’m the one who needed to get it. It was me.”
“Get what?” TK looks at him quizzically. “Baby?”
Carlos lets out a breathy laugh, gazes back at him with wonder as a tear slips down his cheek.
“Baby–” TK brushes the tear away with his thumb and keeps his hand on Carlos’ cheek. “What did you need to get?”
Carlos takes a deep breath, leans into TK’s hand. “Where all this love comes from,” he says.
TK chuckles. “What do you mean?”
“Baby. I want us to adopt Jonah. I’m ready.”
