"What are you talking about?" Alexa sat on the floor with the force of the pressure of Klaus' hands. She could see in his eyes that he was not only curious but shocked and angry. "Are you mad that we're going to have a baby?"

"No. That part ... It's good. I want you to explain the other part to me."

Alexa got dressed. She felt exposed. Maybe she shouldn't have been so sincere about her intentions, but she was suddenly not comfortable with Klaus' reactions.

"I don't know. You are always mad at me. And to be honest, thinking about a baby makes me nervous. And you make me more nervous by reacting like that."

"Alexaaa… I didn't react like that because of our baby, but because of the other thing, you said. And well ... Maybe the fact that you talk about a baby when I don't want to think about babies ... Just about you."

He scratched his head, seeming to realize that his reaction was having the opposite effect than expected.
