Chapter 7 returns to Finn’s perspective as he renovates the house. While he works, Finn reflects on the differences between himself and Mia. Each has a different vision for the fully remodeled house, but Finn resolves to give Mia what she wants instead of pushing for his own preferences. Finn acknowledges that he has always wanted to make her happy because she is so exciting and refreshing in comparison to himself or his ex-girlfriend, Emma.

His thoughts are interrupted when Mia cuts herself on a broken tile and starts to cry. Mia confesses that she is pregnant and has been keeping this news from him for three weeks. She admits that she has been waiting to tell him until her doctor could confirm that she would carry this baby to term. After their struggles with infertility, she has been afraid to get Finn’s hopes up. As they embrace, Finn silently reminds himself that he must concentrate on keeping all of his secrets hidden. If Mia finds out what he is hiding, he is confident that she would leave him and keep him out of their baby’s life.
