"Whyever would you be sorry?" Watts asked, puzzled. "Children are- I never pictured myself having any, it's true, and I don't think- my life does not lack joy or fulfillment because of this." It had certainly lacked joy for a while there, but that had nothing to do with having children.

"But," he continued, "there is some version of me out there that, in the future, clearly finds it worthwhile. And I- I don't find myself displeased with the notion."

He was silent for a moment, and then: "Is it still something you want?" he asked gently.
