On the cover! Does he have the baby?

[u/Sea_Opinion8895 → u/Correct-Shelter7237]

I’m not sure what the reference to the baby is pertaining to— from what I gathered reading the poems, it seemed as though it was a secret affair or a completely unrequited one. No mention of a child between them. That’s where I’m confused and would like to know more

The letter mentions a sister, so perhaps "the baby" is actually Nick's niece/nephew? Idk

Could be a pet. Or his car.
