Robrecht looks at his sweetheart. There she sits, headphones on, thumb on the screen, probably looking for baby stuff. She wants a child. They are about to embark on that adventure. The last strip is out of the packaging, the hormones are finding their rhythm, life is ready for the next step.
Apart from his receding hairline, everything seems fine for Robrecht. He has a job, a girlfriend, a life that runs smoothly. But still, there is that restlessness: the world around him is raging. War, climate, the unhinged fellow human. And then there is that other doubt: love itself. He falls in love so easily, what if he can't keep it up? What if, in the middle of the storm, he no longer knows how to stay standing? The future is wobbling like a drunkard.
Will he throw everything overboard tonight?
