Avoiding The Male Lead-2

212

At first it was only a faint throb of pain, but the throbbing came more frequently and the pain intensified.

“Jungkook…”

As soon as Jungkook who had been staying at home with her during her near-labor days heard that something was off, he quickly came over.

“Honey…”

Xin Lisa held her stomach and said through gritted teeth, “I think…it’s about to come out…” When he heard that, Jungkook’s face changed instantly. He carried her up and quickly called Weng Jennie to rush to the hospital with him.

It was raining too heavily, so Jungkook thought he would tell Old Grandpa Jeon to just wait at home for the good news, however he would have never expected that Jeon Taehyung, and the two elders of the Xin family would rush over as well as soon as they arrived at the hospital.

“How is it? What’s her condition?” Old Grandpa Jeon quickly asked While he was rushing there, Jungkook felt like his heart was stuck at his throat. Never in his lifetime had he ever experienced such panic. He was worried that an accident would happen and that he wouldn’t be able to protect the single most important person in his life.

Jungkook took a deep breath and tried his best to calm himself down. Everything would be fine, he told himself, both of them will be perfectly fine. When Weng Jennie heard Old Grandpa Jeon’s question, she quickly responded, “The doctor says she’s in labor and the baby is in the right position. Everything will be fine.”

“Yeah. That’s a very blessed child, everything will definitely be fine,” Jeon Taehyung chimed in.
Only those at the scene knew how long the wait was and how grinding it felt to wait. Even until night fell, the rain still didn’t stop.

Jungkook stood at the door to the delivery room and looked at the closed door that was silent. Only, everyone else there could clearly tell that his expression grew worse and worse with each passing minute.
Bai Jisoo knew that he was worried and though she herself was extremely worried, she still tried to comfort him.

“That’s how it’s like for a woman to give birth. This is Lisa’s first birth, so it’s normal for it to take longer. Everything will be fine.”

“I know, mom,” Jungkook answered haggardly but his eyes never left the door. God knows how much time had passed but the tightly shut doors were finally open. The doctor walked out and smiled. “Congratulations! It’s a fat little boy.”

“Doctor! How is my wife?” Jungkook asked hurriedly.

“She’s fine. She just finished giving birth and only managed to take one look before passing out.” Without speaking another word, Jungkook rushed into the room. The dense smell of blood came gushing into his nose and he could hear the sound of a
child crying loudly. Jungkook froze for a moment. Weng Jennie and Bai Jisoo followed him in. As soon as they saw the little baby in the nurse’s hands, they all observed him with pleased smiles, saying, “They look so alike.”

Jungkook had only taken a quick glance at the baby before rushing over to the bed. Xin Lisa’s face was completely ghastly pale as she laid on the bed while sweat drenched her hair. Her hands were still tightly clenched around the bedsheets and her brows were furrowed but she was deep asleep.

Jungkook felt his heart ache as he reached out to open up her clenched hands. He lowered his hand to land a soft kiss at her palm. “It must’ve been hard on you, honey.”

However Jungkook would have no idea that Xin Lisa would end up sleeping for a long time without waking up. Miraculously, the distracting and disastrous rain gradually stopped when dawn came. Light poured down from the sky, glowing dazzlingly through the dense clouds.
