His clear voice carried an unusual seriousness. When I met his dark brown eyes, filled with almost drowning affection, I even forgot to breathe.

My heartbeat missed a beat. I really wanted to nod and agree, unable to bring myself to say anything to reject him.

I believe we will work hard to be great parents."

"But not right now."

He cocked his brows. "I haven't finished speaking yet."
