Angelica sighed as she laid her head against the car window.

"I told you it's nothing serious Lankenstein, I don't get why we have to go to the hospital to waste time."

"I told you that checking on your health is always something serious." Sunghoon responded as he placed his hand on her thigh as he drove.

She resisted the urge to smile as she loved when he did that.

Suddenly a ringtone was heard throughout the whole car and Sunghoon pressed the button on the wheel to answer.

"Hello?"

"Hey. Are you going to the office today?"

"I don't think I will. I'm taking Angelica to the hospital."

"Why? Is she okay?"

"She says she is but I still want to take her so she can get checked up."

"Well, if it's nothing serious can she go by herself? We really need you here and I'm so stressed I drank three cups of coffee."

"Damn Jake. I told you to rest and not go today."

"Sorry. I had to distract myself with something."

"She can go by herself but I don't want her to go by herself. I know she'll say she will go but she won't. I'm worried about her."

"So what are we going to do?"

Sunghoon looked over at Angelica, who had fallen asleep against the car window.

He debated for a few seconds as he looked forward towards the road.

He sighed in defeat as he nodded.

I guess we can go on another day.

"I'll go see what's going on then."

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah, I'm sure. I can go with her another day."

*****

Sunghoon softly placed her down on the bed, taking off her shoes as softly as possible, and covering her with the soft wool blanket.

He kneeled down next to her on the bed and placed a soft kiss on her forehead.

"You're home already, you can stop pretending." He said with a grin.

"Dang it, you caught me." Angelica jokingly said as she opened her eyes to look at him with a big smile. "It's your fault you didn't wake me up in the car. I woke up when we were on the elevator and I just went with the flow."

He chuckled softly as he placed his hand in her hair, softly caressing it.

"You should head to work, they're probably waiting for you." She continued as she stared at him fondly.

"Are you sure you'll be okay by yourself? You still look pale."

"I'm not a child Bean Stalk. You don't have to worry."

"But you're my wife Bean, I'm supposed to worry. If you die I'll grow old by myself." He exclaimed as he shook his head.

"Oh so the only reason you're worried is because you don't want to live alone?"

"Precisely."

Angelica playfully rolled her eyes and looked away from him.

"I'm obviously kidding. I'm worried because I love you and I don't want anything to happen to you. I want you to live the happiest, healthiest and longest life on Earth." He said sweetly as her gaze met his again.

He's too perfect to be real...

Angelica thought to herself as Sunghoon continued to softly caress her head.

"I love you too." She responded as she grabbed his hand and placed a kiss on it.

He smiled at her as he stood up, placing a small peck on her nose.

"Keep your phone with you at all times, if you feel bad at all don't hesitate to call me. Okay?" He said as he walked out of the room and towards the kitchen, to grab her phone from her bag, only to return to the room to place it on the bedside table.

Angelica nodded slowly as she was getting tired and her eyes were closing by themselves.

Sunghoon quietly walked towards the windows to close the curtains, and started walking out of the room, closing the door behind him.

Later on, as he took the elevator up to his office, he sighed in worry as he leaned against the wall with his eyes closed.

She really is sick, she never falls asleep that quickly even if she's too tired.

Of course she had been sick around him before, but this time it was different.

He had a feeling it was different.

She had been this way for weeks.

She would randomly have a burning fever in the middle of the night or would wake up to puke out whatever was in her stomach almost every day.

Any strong smell was enough to make her dizzy and she would fall asleep quicker than normal.

Some of the days, she would have to leave work due to her feeling too nauseous over dumb stuff like donuts or the smell of tea.

Sunghoon shook his head in worry but then he abruptly lifted his head, his eyes going wider than saucers.

Wait....No, that's different..

He shook his head 'no' as he dismissed the idea, laying his head against the wall again.

Wait, what the fuck? No it's not!.... He thought as he abruptly lifted his head one more time.

His eyes went wide again as he connected the dots.

What if she's pregnant?

Right then the elevator dinged, reaching it's destined floor.

The doors opened and he didn't move.

"Good afternoon Sir." One of the workers greeted politely, her smile fading as she didn't get a response from him.

"Sir?"

He broke out of his trance and looked at the lady.

"I'm sorry. Good afternoon." He greeted politely as he walked out of the elevator and towards his office, where there was a client already waiting for him.

Focus Sunghoon. You can think about this later.

He thought to himself as he tried to force his suspicions to the back of his head.

"Well Mrs. Park since you seem to be so busy to talk with your friend." Yu Ahn claimed over the phone and Angelica let out a laugh.

"I work Yu Ahn, it's not like I live off my parents' allowance." Angelica joked as she sat up on the bed to lean against the headboard.

"You just love to trash on me, don't you? I'm proud my parents are rich."

Angelica chuckled softly as she stared into the screen, turning to look at the clock.

I hope he's doing okay.
