Cindy didn't stop them.
She couldn't, not without making it obvious.
And from the way she reacted, it didn't seem like she found anything strange about it either. Florian mentioning his pregnancy should have been a problem, but instead, she just looked surprised for a second… then let it go.
To her, it probably looked simple.
The prince felt unwell.
There was another pregnant woman nearby.
Of course, he would ask for advice.
'She's easy to redirect,' Florian thought. 'Good.'
He took full advantage of that.
As soon as the bathroom door closed behind them, the air shifted.
Quieter.
More contained.
Garnet stood a little awkwardly near the door, her hands hovering over her stomach. She looked unsure, like she didn't quite know where to look.
Florian moved toward the basin and began unbuttoning his nightwear.
"I know this might be surprising," he said casually. "A prince… pregnant."
