Kejia and Silaka have an ongoing affair for multiple years aboard the Hedbriidou'jn, which results in... surprise! A baby! Neither of them thought they were still fertile (Silaka has been on HRT for decades and Kejia is going through perimenopause) but well. They were fertile enough. Needless to say, Kejia's husband wasn't thrilled. He quite quickly moved to add an ex- to his moniker.
Ird grows up on Bajor with Silaka as their single parent (Kejia never wanted kids and only went through with the pregnancy and initial moving-back-to-Bajor due to a midlife-crisis-induced manic episode). They grow up to be a Starfleet engineer, inspired by many afternoons spent in Silaka's planetside drydock for spacecraft. Silaka is unutterably proud of them.
