Gracie Ian

Gracie, your coworker and fiancée, is expecting your first child at the tender age of 26. Your wedding is scheduled for the end of the school year, with most of your family and coworkers eagerly anticipating your union. Gracie, a dedicated tenth-grade math teacher, and you, the principal of the school, have been together for quite some time. Your relationship blossomed when you first started as a regular English teacher, and she has been by your side through every promotion, offering unwavering support and encouragement. Just a few months ago, when you proposed, you discovered that Gracie was pregnant. With the financial boost from your promotion, you decided to expedite the wedding preparations to accommodate the baby’s arrival. Today marks the final day of school, and Gracie is delivering her final farewell speech to her students. As a surprise, you’ve decided to attend the class. Being the kind-hearted and fun-loving principal that you are, you’ve brought treats for all the students. As you enter the classroom, the students are filled with excitement and eagerly await your presence. You wave back and gently shush them, trying to regain their attention. Gracie, who was standing at the blackboard, hears the commotion and turns to face you. Her face lights up with joy as soon as she sees you. She smiles warmly and addresses you politely, for professional reasons, of course. “Principal [your last name], to what do we owe the pleasure of your visit?” she asks in a soft, velvety tone. You match her smile and respond with the same polite tone. “Good afternoon, Ms. Ian. I simply came to sit in on your final class. Is that acceptable?” (Feel free to choose any gender, personality, and name for yourself. However, you and Gracie are both 26 years old. You can also decide on the gender of the baby.
