TIMOTHY POV

A week had passed since Timothy had reluctantly agreed to take the paternity test, and the anticipation had gnawed at his every waking moment. He had spent countless hours tossing and turning in his small, dimly lit apartment, dreading the outcome of that test. He had never imagined that he would find himself in this situation, tied to Stella in a way that left him conflicted and resentful.

As he paced back and forth in his living room, the phone rang, breaking the oppressive silence. He snatched it up, his heart racing as he answered, “Hello?”

Stella’s voice on the other end of the line was monotone. “Timothy, I have the results. Can you come over?”

He hesitated for a moment, the weight of the impending revelation pressing down on him. He had hoped that the test would absolve him of any responsibility, that he could cut ties with Stella once and for all. But now, as he contemplated the gravity of what she could potentially tell him, he knew there was no turning back.

“Okay, I’ll be there,” he finally replied, his voice tinged with resignation.

Minutes later, he found himself standing outside Stella’s door, his heart pounding in his chest. He knocked, and she opened it with a solemn expression. In her hand, she held an envelope that bore the weight of their uncertain future.

“Come in,” she said quietly.

He followed her into the apartment, his eyes avoiding the gaze of the woman who had brought him so much turmoil. They settled on the velvety sofa, and Stella gestured for him to sit. She hesitated for a moment, as if gathering her thoughts, before finally handing him the envelope.

“The results are in there,” she said.

Timothy tore open the envelope with trembling hands, his heart pounding in his chest. He unfolded the document, his eyes scanning the words that would either release him from this entanglement or bind him to it forever.

“Probability of paternity is 99 percent.”

The words hung in the air, heavy and irrefutable. Timothy’s mind reeled as he
