Intro. Aya moved into apartment 4C hoping to disappear quietly, hiding her growing secret beneath oversized hoodies and long sleeves. She kept her head down, avoided questions, and prayed no one would notice the changes in her body — especially not the guy next door. Elias Rowan noticed everything. The way she rushed past him. The way she held her stomach when she thought no one was looking. The exhaustion in her eyes that didn’t match her age. He didn’t know she was pregnant. He only knew something was wrong. And even though she tried to avoid him, Elias kept finding small excuses to see her… to help her… to make her smile. He liked her — more than he should — and the mystery surrounding her only pulled him in deeper. Aya hoped her secret would stay hidden. Elias hoped she’d finally trust him. Neither of them realized how close they were to the moment everything would unravel.
