“Here you can see the baby’s face. There doesn’t seem to be any problems.”
On the black ultrasound screen, where she couldn’t make out anything, the doctor often pointed to the baby and said it was safe.
It took only a few minutes to get from the emergency room to the VIP room. Yoongyo didn’t even go to the hospital when he was stabbed, but he had accompanied her.
It was strange that he seriously looked at the ultrasound screen.
“Husband, please help the mother up.”
The doctor called Yoongyo, husband. But he didn’t bother to correct him.
“Emotional stability is important in the early stages. You shouldn’t be stressed. When your pregnancy reaches a steadier period, the emotional fluctuations become less significant. In case the baby looks like its father, it will be handsome. But in case it looks like its mother, it will be beautiful. Your children will be blessed.”
Doctor Sorinji ordered an intravenous fluid dosage for her. He told her she could go home after the intravenous fluid. He was assigned a VIP room for intravenous therapy.
Haeseong Hospital. Her eyes fell on the doctor’s gown with these words written on it. While she settled in for a rest on the bed, he exited the hospital. Since the day he had been stabbed, he seemed even busier. She knew something important was happening, in his world where death was always near, but she felt safe.
She had no plan for what to do when she had the baby. They probably weren’t going to get married, but they were h#ving s#x. She didn’t know how to define the relationship. But she was determined to protect this baby, it was all she could do.
“Jumi?”
When someone called her name, Jumi realized she had a visitor. Taejoo, dressed in a doctor’s gown, approached her as she received the intravenous fluid.
“You really are Jumi. I couldn’t believe it when I heard your name.”
“Taejoo, it’s been a while.”
“I thought you would contact me.”
The man, who had laughed, noticed her pale face.
“May I know what you’re sick with?”
“…I’m pregnant.”
The man froze. Fortunately, he didn’t say what he was thinking. But she could read his doubt-filled face. Even if some people did not welcome the news, she had to tell them about her child’s existence.
“I hope you didn’t feel uncomfortable…”
“I understand that you’re surprised.”
“I actually went to the coffee shop a few days ago. But you weren’t there, so I came to the hospital.”
“You were in the right place at the wrong time.”
She knew it wasn’t the time for jokes, but she didn’t want to cling to her sad mood. Much less engage in deep conversation. But Taejoo looked disappointed. He seemed to have the same reaction as Wooseok in a way.
