chapter 22 - final

"Where is my husband!?" Doyoung asked the passing doctor after he realized Taeil isn't in his room.

Doyoung used to work in Samsung Medical Centre for 2 years before opening his own clinic. Samsung Medical Centre is the biggest hospital in Seoul and Doyoung is familiar with most of the doctor that is working there. The reason he chooses that hospital for Taeil.

Taeil fainted for a reason. Taeil is pregnant with his child and he was thankful that nothing bad happened to their baby since Taeil was bleeding that night. He plans to have the happiest family with Taeil, no matter what his mother had to say. He will protect and stand by Taeil side.

"Doyoung, what is wrong?" Qian Kun, one of the doctors in the hospital, and Doyoung's friend asked as he looked worried. Standing next to him, Ten Lee, one of the doctors in the hospital. They started working in the hospital around the same time as Doyoung.

"My husband," Doyoung said, voice trembling.

At the same time, he saw Taeil walking toward his room holding a bottle of water and a small box, which Doyoung believed was a box of fried chicken. He probably went out to get his order but he can't eat anything unhealthy now! He is pregnant!

Doyoung left Kun and Ten behind without saying goodbye and followed Taeil to his room. Taeil ignored him as he climbs up the bed and pull up the bed desk and put down his food, reaching out for the wet tissue on the side of his bed and cleans his hands before trying to eat something.

"Are you hungry?" Doyoung asked softly and Taeil was still ignoring him. Doyoung walked to the side of the bed and pull the provided chair and watch his pretty husband eating his garlic fried chicken in silence.

"Can I eat with you?" Doyoung asked softly after few minutes of watching without any words from Taeil. Taeil eats slowly and Doyoung must eat the chicken in order for Taeil to not eat more. Taeil nodded without looking at him and Doyoung hurriedly wipe his hands and took two drumsticks at once.

"No," Taeil tried pulling the box away from Doyoung when he barely can eat 3 cuts of chicken because Doyoung is eating it all up, "Buy one yourself."

"The oil is not good for your pregnancy," Doyoung begged.

"I can eat it once in a while," Taeil complained.

"What do you want to eat? Let me cook it for you. Porridge? Chicken porridge?"

"I am not sick," Taeil complained.

"Baby, don't be like this. The doctor said you eat too many samgyeoplsal that lead to the bleeding. Why aren't you taking care of yourself?"

Taeil pout, putting down the chicken bone he was holding, and looked at Doyoung. Wanted to see Doyoung's reaction to his pregnancy, was he mad that Taeil hides it from him? Was he mad that Taeil decided to keep the baby without talking to him first?

"You know?"

"I know."

Silence.

"You don't want to ask my reason why I didn't tell you about it?" Taeil asked timidly.

"You have your reason, if you're ready you will talk to me right?" Doyoung answered. Wanted to kiss Taeil forehead but his lips are sticky with the garlic sauce.

"Your mom?" Taeil asked again, voice small.

"I have explained to her. Don't worry about her, I love you and that's it."

"I feel bad," Taeil sighed.

"Why?"

Before Taeil can answer his parent open the door to his room. Mrs. Moon was holding a big Tupperware, his father was holding a basket of fruit, Jungwoo and Mark come with a smile on their face.
