23: two weeks of affection

"Are you pregnant?"

A smile slowly formed on his cheeks. His hand gripped my shoulder tighter and moved his hand to my cheeks, scooping it before pulling my face closer to him to make me look at him straight into his eyes.

Jake giggled as he saw my rosy cheeks. I was speechless and my face flushed when he rested his pointy nose on mine slightly before pulling me into his warm embrace. I rested my head on his chest, let him pat me, and brush my hair while listening to his words.

"Do you want to eat something? chocolate? ice cream? waffle?"

"Do you want to eat beef steak again? Do you want two plates this time? I can ask them to serve for you."

"Let's take a night walk and talk about this until late night comes. We have so many things to talk about. I'm so excited to talk about this with you."

He brushed my hair, giggled between his words, and broke the hug to kiss me on the forehead.

"What are we going to talk about?" I asked him.

"I want to talk about our baby and I want to know more about you."

He continued excitedly,

"About what you like and what you don't like. About what you want to do and what you don't want to do. About something you love and something you hate."

"I'm willing to take the responsibility by protecting both of you until the end of my breath and until I grow old. I'm willing to be the husband of yours and the father of the little us in your belly."

I lowered my head, and slowly shook my head.

"I'm glad that you're willing to do your responsibility for us but I will be happier if you leave me alone with the baby by my side."

Jake softened his gaze when he heard that. He slowly let go of me and bend his body lower to my height, tucked my hair behind my ear before gently scooping my cheeks and caressing them.

He lifted my chin to meet my gaze for the second time.

"What are you talking about, Han Jina?"

He asked me in confusion.

"I'm willing to take the responsibility because I was the cause behind this matter. Why aren't you allowed me to take care of the little us together?"

"You have me by your side but why did you choose to raise them alone?"

He held my hand tightly,

"Let's get married to each other again but this time it lasts forever."

"Will you get married to me?"

I put my hand away from him and sighed before speaking up.

"I have a question, Jake."

He waited for me to continue.

"If Yurim were still here,"

"If Yurim were still by your side."

His reaction slowly changed as I mentioned her name in the conversation.

"Will you come back to me and treat me this way?"

"Will you treat me nicely and playfully tease me?"

"If I didn't carry your child,"

"If I weren't pregnant,"

"If I were just a manager to Han Jangwoo,"
