The professor said "it's time for the final thesis" when he finished the last name he proudly announced "and finally " the suspense burned he knew the last two names " Claire and Eli"

The professor’s words hung in the air, a grim pronouncement that sent a chill down Eli’s spine. Claire’s face, usually a beacon of warmth, had gone ashen. She’d fumbled for her phone, snapping a quick photo of the name list, her fingers trembling as she sent it to Bright. The minutes that followed were a blur of frantic energy. Bright, a tempest in human form, had stormed through the lecture hall doors, his face a thundercloud, and disappeared into the professor’s office. The protracted silence that followed was deafening, punctuated only by the nervous shuffling of papers and the frantic beating of Eli's own heart. When Bright finally emerged, his expression was unreadable, a mask of stone that offered no clue to the outcome of his confrontation. Eli could only wait, the knot in his stomach tightening with each passing second.

Then, as if conjured from the very air, a new figure materialized. William, Claire’s older brother, a man of thirty years and a steady, reassuring presence, stepped into the room. He moved with an easy grace, his gaze sweeping over the tense atmosphere before landing on Bright. “So,” William began, his voice a low rumble that cut through the unease, “how’s the baby?” The question, seemingly innocuous, carried an undertone of concern, a subtle probing of the situation. Eli knew William was a doctor, a man accustomed to assessing health and well-being. He’d already expressed his reservations to Bright about Claire pursuing her Master’s under such stressful conditions, especially now, knowing the volatile history between her and Eli. William’s presence, a reminder of Claire’s family and her delicate state, added another layer of complication to the already fraught landscape. " Hi there Michael " he told our professor "hey you know these two Clare and ELi well well because clear is pregnant she will be doing her thesis with her husband the doctor's note is right here "
