When I tell the father of my baby that he’s going to be a dad, he surprises me by not running away. Even though all we had was one night, he's willing to see where this goes, and so am I.

With facing the pandemic, taking out a loan, and work 75-hours a week. Noelle has had to work harder than ever. Then she finds herself pregnant and not able to keep up with her daily grind. Things have slowly changed for the past few weeks. She needs more breaks, takes naps, and have cut caffein.
