plot 001 “I technically signed up for this”
Muse A is basically the epitome of “don’t need no man” and “too busy for romance”. She’s romantically hopeless and so used to being the embodiment of “strong independent woman” that she’s had time to build a successful career on her own. Fast forward to Muse A’s thriving thirties, her biological clock starts ticking. Muse A becomes desperate to have kids on her own so she gets artificially inseminated. Although, Muse A is secretly lives in fear and doubt. Without a family or much people to really call as “friends”, she’s afraid she’s in danger of failing miserably as a mother, or just external dangers being pregnant and all. SO! She opens her home to a renter ‘cause she doesn’t want to be alone during the downs of pregnancy. She offers a room and in return she gets a companion helper during her 9 month journey.
Muse B is struggling. He got kicked out of his apartment because he lost his shitty job and couldn’t pay his rent. Muse B’s been living like a hooligan for most of his life (if you’re familiar with Keith from our favorite preteeny book of all time “13 Little Blue Envelopes”, then that’s him) and doesn’t conform to 9-5 jobs. He comes across Muse A’s ad for a cheap room. They discuss and he thinks “hmm that won’t be so hard and I get everything for free!” so he accepts her condition and lives with her.
plot 002 “I didn’t sign up for this”
Muse A and Muse B meet at a wild party one summer. They were two sexually-charged 20-somethings who couldn’t stay away from each other that night.
Muse A gets pregnant but she didn’t tell Muse B because they didn’t get each other’s number nor were they interested in anything serious. Nonetheless, Muse A decided to keep the baby and raised the child herself.
Fast forward to 7 years later, Muse A makes a big move with her only child to a new state/country. She gets called to school one day for whatever reason. When she walked into the classroom she recognises Muse B sitting behind the teacher’s desk. Muse B recognises her too.
plot 003 “I’m signing up for this”
Muse A’s so desperate to have a baby but she doesn’t have a husband nor a boyfriend. She scanned through all the options but none of them appealed to her.
Muse B, who has been Muse A’s good friend for a very long time, feels sympathy towards Muse A who cannot find the right person to build a family with. Since Muse B was conveniently single at the time, he volunteers to help Muse A out.
They have a drunken baby-making session, because they’ve decided that baby-making while sober is too awkward.
Muse A gets pregnant, and thus the joys of pregnancy begins... she also accidentally falls in love with the father of her child. yikes.
plot 004 “WHY ARE YOU SIGNING UP FOR THIS?!”
Muse A, in her early thirties, wants a baby but she doesn’t want to get married (*bretman rock voice* commitment issues or whatevah) so she marches into a clinic and upfront tells Muse B, the hunky doctor, that she wants to get inseminated. And fast.
Muse B, surprised to hear such a reasonably young and attractive woman make such a request, tries to convince her to not waste shitloads of money and to conceive the “natural way”. Muse A is just not having it from him. Muse B obliges to Muse A’s wishes, and ends up taking care of her throughout the entire pregnancy all for the name of being a good doctor and well.. she’s single, living alone, funny, attractive, and everything he realised he’s ever wanted
