The weekend went on nicely like usual except for Mrs Kim being overprotective with me. After that night, she took care of me cautiously. Thinking about her made me dizzy already. She was being protective over nothing.

Her logic somehow could not get into my head. How do you know someone was pregnant by just looking?

While with Taehyung's matter, this whole weekend, I succeed in avoiding spending the nights with him. I would always be in the workroom after his parents went to bed.

"Remember what I said."

Mrs Kim whispered before letting go of me from her bone-crushing hug. I grinned as she hopped into the car. I waved them goodbye, watching the car went off before disappearing into the left of the junction. Not wanting to be with Taehyung for long, I made my way into the house.

"What were you thinking? Acting like that in front of my parents?"

I rolled my eyes and turned around, facing him.

"Acting like what?"

"Don't you think I didn't notice your behavior? Avoiding me by spending the night in your stupid workroom? What if my parents notice that?"

I sighed, pinching the bridge of my nose.

"I'm not avoiding you. I just got a lot of work and about your parents, they do not say anything so let it off. I'm tired now, I want to sleep."

"Yah, Shin Ji-yeon!"

I ignored his yell and ran off to my room, locking the door. Plopping myself onto my cozy bed, a heavy sigh left my lips. The extreme tiredness in my body melted away as my back contacted the soft mattress. These few days, I have been feeling extra tired since I did not have any proper rest working the project.

I guess.

I stared at the ceiling as the silence took over the room and later, I was slipping into the dreamland.

-------------------------------------------------------

Honey do not forget what I said. Go and check it.

A text from Taehyung's mother was what I received first in the early morning. And I was regretting my decision to follow what she told me to. I sighed, pacing back and forth with tremble hands and quivering lips. The cursed stick with the two-line shown were enough to ruin my day early in the morning. Out of habit, I brought my thumb to my lips, biting the nail as my eyes shook. Waiting for the doctor, Yoongi was nice enough to come with me for a check-up. I could not believe anything now. I prayed so hard that the test came out wrong and I am not pregnant. However, once again, the God did not answer.

"Congratulations, you are 2 weeks pregnant."

And that is the reason why my face pale as I walked out the room and sat abruptly on the chair. All my soul left my body, I shook my head vigorously, my hand gripped on Yoongi's shirt as my tears kept falling.

"No... Taehyung could not know about this."

"Why? He needs to be responsible for this. He was the one tha- "

"NO! He cannot. He would kill me." Taken aback at my sudden rage, Yoongi just nodded while looking at my state. He was worried that I would have panic attack and it will harm the baby. The last thing that should happened was me having panic attack. He scooted closer and hugged me tight, caressing my back to calm me down.

"Hey, relax. You are not alone. You have me. You have Hoseok too. We will take care of you."

"How the hell--?! I-I c-can't.. "

Patting my back, swaying me side to side slowly, Yoongi tighten his hug, whispering soothing words to calm me down. I was scared, I am still young for this and the most important thing, Taehyung will kill me for this even thought that night was all his faults. He would leave me and made me suffered alone with a baby.

That was enough for me to start weeping on his chest, crying my heart out.

---------------------------------------------------------

Time skips and I grew fond with the creature inside me. I am now officially one month pregnant!

I was prepared, even if Taehyung left me, I would take care of the baby on my own. Surprisingly, I do not have any symptoms like other pregnant woman but not for Taehyung. He kept vomiting in the morning, craving weird things to eat and have mood swings. I chuckled as I knew he became like that because of me. Taehyung still did not know about my pregnancy and I never have in mind to tell him yet.

I quietly ate my dinner as I took a glint at Taehyung who had his face scrunched in discomfort. I frowned when suddenly Taehyung dashed to the bathroom and gagging sounds echoed.

Taehyung pouring out everything he ate.

He came back after a while and sat on the chair with a sigh. I looked at him only to meet his eyes. He stared at me and sips on his drink. "What's wrong with you, Taehyung?" I asked, looking away. He sighed and took a napkin, wiping his mouth. He kept staring at me before saying something that really break my heart into pieces.

"It must be because of Ae-ra. Ae-ra said sometimes the husband will have the allergies when his wife is pregnant."

Ae-ra is pregnant?

I was deep in thought until Taehyung spoke again, leaving me dumbfounded and hurt.

"Let us get a divorce. You know Ae-ra is pregnant now and it is not fair for her if I'm still married with you while carrying my child."

I looked at him, staring straight into his soul and after sometimes, chuckled. Why am I expecting for a guy like him to stay with me? My eyes started to get hotter and I bowed my head down, trying to hide my teary eyes.

Then it is fair for me to be abandon by you like this while carrying your child too?

Bet. It is all about Ae-ra anyways.

"We never love each other, well me for sure and this marriage is not worth it. So, can you help me? Talk to our parents that you want a divorce. Just say you fall out of love and did not want to continue this marriage anymore. Our parents preferred you than me so it will be easier because they will listen to you."

Taehyung stood up and walked to my side. Taking my hands into his, he looked straight into my eyes, pleading for me to do his favor.

"You will be free, just do it okay? I can't propose the idea of divorce because my mom won't ever agree with me. My parents love you more than me. So let's act as if you're the one who want a divorce. Tell them you can't make yourself to fall in love with me and this marriage is not gonna work out. They will believed you and agree with the divorce eventually."
