CHAPTER-26

Three months later!

( Ninth month of Yeon Min's pregnancy, her delivery date is near)

Haewon's POV

The whole mansion is decorated as if there is some sort of wedding. The sky is filled with fireworks...the mansion is decorated with colorful lights....the atmosphere is full of happiness and joy. Guests in large numbers have occupied the whole garden. Media in large number have arrived. There is a happiness and glow on face of everyone present there. Yeon Min and Hoseok are on stage welcoming the guests. Aunt was laughing and gossiping with the guests. Uncle Jung was busy with his friends and employees. It was a baby shower done for the upcoming heir of the Jung's.

And here I am standing near the balcony window of my room trying to peep out what all is happening downstairs with teary eyes. The more the people present there are happy the more gloomy and sad, I am here.

It's the ninth month of Yeon Min's pregnancy soon the baby will come in this world. To welcome the baby this large party has been thrown by Uncle Jung and Aunt. I didn't have any guts to go downstairs and face so many people out there. I don't know what is going to happen after tonight's function. They all were good at hiding my absence and they have given the public a reason that Yeon Min is surrogate as I can never be a mom. I don't know why Hoseok agreed to it but he did. After all reputation of the family was Everything for the Jung's from the start.

Hoseok and I have been away from long-time. In the past three months Yeon Min has got a lot more extra attention and care. And because it was necessary to take her care , because it were the last few stages. Hoseok himself didn't leave her alone and all this just frustrated me from inside. And what all I could do was nothing than crying.

It's been from the past few months I felt weak...and stressed. I thought it was all because of the tension which I had because of Yeon min but when today I went to the clinic to see doctor. The thing she told me surprised me....I was three months pregnant. I was pregnant with Hoseok's child...there was a small being growing inside me. And even though I cannot see him/her now but the presence of having someone inside my tummy was making me smile.

But at the same moment reality struck me. Will Hoseok stay with me...? Aunt and others want him to leave with Yeon Min tomorrow to America and to be honest until and unless i knew that I was pregnant I thought that there are 99% chances that he will definitely leave me. But now what if I tell him that..he is going to be a dad ...will he stay with me? I want him to be with me...I want him to play with our kid. Is there a 1% chance of him staying back? Though he has still not given his decision on this topic.

I was continuously sobbing but I have decided that let the function finish tonight I will tell him this news tonight and maybe he doesn't leave. Maybe he stays with me...afterall he loves me.

So I just settled down on our bed and tried to stay calm and stop crying. Life is harsh but yet so beautiful. One moment it leaves you broken the other moment it gives you the reason to live. My baby was another reason according to me which can bring it's parents back together. I am not saying that Yeon Min was successful in separating us...but what is the use of staying together and still not together. Somewhere the fact that Hoseok was father of Yeon Min's child made Hoseok go away from me.

Things were not like before. Indirectly I felt like he has divorced me. We were not divorced officially but the baby who was not yet born has somewhere taken away Hoseok from me, there was a distance which cannot be seen but felt. Yeon Min was happy having Hoseok around her and now Hoseok was not concerned about me that much, made her feel more happy and contented.

In last three months I felt like I was alone. I was married, I had a husband...my husband loved me but suddenly something changed and everything around me changed. I didn't knew when he drifted apart from me. I didn't knew when I started to lose him and the fear that he will leave me and go to America felt like real until today when I realised that our baby can make him stay with me.
