Day Dream • Na Jaemin

1

Positive. The test reads positive.

From inside the ensuite bathroom, twenty-four-year-old Na Suji is utterly thrilled.

She is jumping and twirling around on her bare feet.

Pregnant.

She is pregnant!

She is even able to think back to the time that is the cause of her being pregnant.

Grinning from ear to ear, Suji does a little dance. All of it is a dream come true! She comes to a stop when she thinks of her husband.

He is a police officer and the man she is happy to say is her best friend. They have known each other since middle school and are high school sweethearts.

"How am I going to tell him?" Suji asks herself.

She supposes she can just tell it to him straight, but she does want to have some fun with it. Maybe she can turn it into a game for him?

Of course, with whatever she ends up doing, she wants to do it in person. Unfortunately, he is not at home since he was heading over to his work for a bit.

Apparently he needed to drop something off for someone. At least Suji has some time before he returns home.

"Hey, I can look things up online!" Suji reaches for her left back pocket only to find her cell phone is not there. "Oh, right. I left it downstairs."

Just as she exits the bedroom and descends the stairs, she hears the back door open up for some reason.

"Honey?" Suji asks, stopping at the bottom of the stairs.

She finds it odd, he did not use the front door or even the door that connects the garage and kitchen. After all, he should have parked his car out in the driveway or in the garage depending on his plans for later.

However, she does not hear him say a word. Instead, she only hears the back door shut.

"Babe?" she asks again, using a louder voice.

Suji finishes walking down the stairs and makes her way towards the family room.

Just as she enters the kitchen, she freezes in place and gasps.

Chills race down her spine at who she sees. Her husband is most certainly not home.

Standing on the other side of the kitchen that is adjacent to the family room is a grown man.

He has tan skin, reddish brown hair, and dark eyes. He is wearing scuffed up shoes, dark jeans, and a plain grey tee.

"Hello, Ji-Ji" he says warmly, looking at her with adoration.

Of course, Suji recognizes him. Besides, the nickname for her is a dead giveaway.

"Yi Doha …" she murmurs.

The two of them went to high school together. Doha had always wanted to date her, but she never wanted that since she had eyes for someone else.

After she and her husband started dating, Doha became more determined to make his dream a reality.

At some point, his behavior seemed borderline obsessive. Her circle of friends considered him to be a crazy stalker when it came to her.

"It's just me," Doha says to assure her.

At least she only has him to worry about. Things can be worse if he showed up with friends or something else.

"Why are you here?" Suji asks after she finds her voice.
