the clock strikes to 8 pm yet mark was still energized, unlike rosé who was experiencing back pain and headache. she has been experiencing unusual tiredness for the past few days, but she thought that it just a normal thing like other workers since her schedule was also packed lately to the point she even barely could spend time with mark at home.

mark was walking with other surgeon in the hallway when he noticed rosé was rubbing her nape while looking through the file at the reception.

his intention to approach her died down when someone came rushing into the hallway. "dr tuan, red zone!" the man said.

mark hurriedly follow along without having a chance to greet his girlfriend.

"doctor, are you okay? you look so tired" yeri said, gaining a weak smile from rosé after she was looking at the way mark just headed to.

"I'm fine, just a little bit tired"

"your shift will end in 15 minutes, why don't you go back to your room first? I will take care everything for you" yeri offered her.

"are you sure about that?"

"yes, pretty sure"

"alright, thanks yeri and sorry for burdening you"

"no.. it's fine!"

rosé smiled once again before she leaves to her room. lately, she realized that she always feel tired so often and remembering that her period was late by 5 days, her mind started to explore everything about a certain thing. she's not that dumb if she doesn't know being extremely tired was also a part of pregnancy.

having her own little family will always be her dream, but she couldn't expect that it could be this soon. will mark be okay with this? how can I tell him if I'm really carrying his little one now? question after question filled her mind.

when the clock passed her shift hours, rosé immediately left to find something that she needs in order to prove if her assumption was right or not.

she heads into a pharmacy in her way back home to get the pregnancy test. after getting the thing, she continues her ride again.

she doubt herself wether she should run the test or not, but after thinking about it carefully she decided to do it.

her heart beats faster while waiting for the results after she did what the instructions at the back of the package asked to.

after minutes, she checked the pregnancy test and to her relief, one line showed up. but there's a little bit of disappointment in deep inside of her heart.

"that's a relieve, enjoy your life first rosé.. and think about that matter when both of you and mark are ready to have a family" she assured herself while staring at her reflection in the mirror before she threw away the used pregnancy test in the bin.

mark was on call tonight, so it just left her alone in her apartment. after taking a shower and changing into a new pair of clothes, rosé fell asleep in her bed.

***

the next morning, she woke up by something licking her face. rosé opened her eyes and saw the familiar white poodle on her chest looking at her with his doe eyes.

"good morning milo.. who let you in, huh?" she asked the dog while settling herself to sit on the bed. milo barked at her with his happy waggling tail then look at the door after he got down onto the floor, as if asking her to follow him.
