Childless Woman Returns from a Business Trip a Day Early and Finds a Baby in Her House

When Alicia returned home early from a business trip, she never expected to find a baby on her bed—right next to her husband. His tired, vague explanation left her confused, but it wasn’t until the next morning that the startling truth unraveled.

After a month away in New York for work, Alicia finally arrived home in Miami late at night, eager to surprise her husband, Luke. She’d wrapped up her tasks sooner than planned and caught a late flight, wanting nothing more than to relax in her own bed. Quietly entering the house, she tiptoed to the bedroom, careful not to wake Luke, who had no idea she was back.

The soft glow of the moonlight revealed Luke snoring lightly on one side of the bed, but something unusual caught Alicia’s eye. On her side of the bed was a small bundle—a baby, nestled safely with a pillow placed to keep it from rolling off. Alicia froze. They didn’t have children. Where had this baby come from?

Her mind raced with questions. Luke had grown up in an orphanage and had no close family. This couldn’t be a relative’s child. Alarmed, she shook him awake.“Luke! Wake up! What’s going on here?” she whispered urgently.Groggy and confused, Luke rubbed his eyes. “Alicia? You’re home early. What’s wrong?”
