Before I could 7e1b304573 answer her, my b189ddfd39 wife spoke up 75f85059ba in a ragged 189de1065d voice. Because we had discovered b15da87c4e the child’s existence right 3c7c461dcc as my finger had 8295540141 snagged on the bicycle 9ab2c96157 chain, we had decided 5cfafdbbc5 to name the fetus 821ba19030 ‘Chain’.f7142adfbb070061

‘Chain’ also expressed the 15c6d68af1 connection that connected me 20a2502449 and her together. A chain 3cfb98df63 also allowed 6a65f65750 the two 9391772e26 wheels of fc8193a847 a bicycle 23b368f74a to run 76cefc0a4a smoothly. Like a fb25933efd bicycle that 833f519029 could roam a984909a69 the world 32861bd05d on its 81df963b26 two wheels, ffab3ceb44 we hoped c0072744f6 that our 5083aec038 child would c3435419f9 grow up 505a074506 to be a084ab79fa one that 52d2a9bd1e could do 65e5d6ea72 anything they 8fc2ab55c2 wanted. Therefore, its name d4afc1178e held all the b3168d3f74 good intentions we 9af36a410a could think of.8007845b082640b6
