Lisa went out of Rosé's room and called Jennie. "Hello Lisa? What time will you arrive tomorrow?" Jennie asked as she answered the call. "Hello Jen? Hello? It seems I can't clearly hear what you say," Lisa responded. "Sorry, the signal here is poor," Jennie explained. "Yeah, I'll just text you," Lisa said and just heard beeping sound as Jennie's phone lost signal.


Rosé woke up early in the morning and was throwing up again. "Baby, please help me. It's just the two of us right now," Rosé said while gently caressing her tummy. "Ms. Lim? Ms. Lim?" Rosé called out her maid as she stepped outside the comfort room.

She was shocked to see Lisa preparing breakfast in the table. "Hey! How are you? Are you feeling better?" Lisa asked as Rosé sat on the chair in front of Lisa and the table. "Yeah! Why are you here? You should be in the province with Jennie right now, " Rosé said in disbelief. 

"I told Jennie what's happening to you and she told me to come here. Well, she said that she's fine that I'm not going there anymore. She said, she understands," Lisa explained while putting food in Rosé plate.

"Wait, wait. Did you cooked all of these?" Rosé excitedly asked pointing to the food in front of them. "Yeah, why?" Lisa asked. "What time did you arrived here?" Rosé asked back.

"I didn't went home. I realized, maybe you needed someone here. You shouldn't be alone while you're pregnant. Good thing I still have some clothes in my room," Lisa stated. 

"Okay, let's talk about Jennie again. Is it really okay to her? She's looking forward that you'll meet her family," Rosé said. "She told me that we'll prioritize the baby. She said that she understands and there are still many chances to meet them," Lisa answered. 

"Thank you Lisa. You're doing so much to me. I really don't deserve this," Rosé timidly said. "But our baby deserves this. Just think about that, okay? So you better eat now because you need to regain strength. I heard you awhile ago when you where in the comfort room. C'mon," Lisa said as she urged Rosé to eat.

"Do you think we can still talk like this if not because of the baby?" Rosé interestingly asked. "If our baby didn't happen, I wanna think that time will really come that I will forgive you. You have a special place in my heart Rosé despite all the..." Lisa paused as she sighed. "Problems that you caused. We still loved each other before. You made me the person I am today because of you," Lisa said which made Rosé smile.

"Anyway, I already fixed the faucet," Lisa told Rosé. "Yeah, I was supposed to call the repairman before but just forgot about it. And sorry, I was in coma," Rosé said which made them both laughing. "It's been a long time since I saw your smile," Lisa said. 

"It was the day when I left for my out-of-town and you kissed me. It's one of the memories I can clearly recall," Rosé said. "Yeah, that day," Lisa uttered. "Sometimes, I just wish that if only I could turn back the time, I wouldn't do what I have done. Maybe we're still happy right now," Rosé regrettably said.

"For real, we can still be happy Rosé. It's just not in the way we expected. But we have a baby coming along so you have to eat," Lisa jokingly said as she sat and eat breakfast with Rosé.


Lisa and Rosé went upstairs to view the nursery. "I know it's still early but I wanted to start designing the nursery. I already ordered baby items online. So if you want to add something just tell me," Rosé said as she and Lisa got inside the room. Rosé noticed that Lisa was silent. She saw Lisa looking intently at the room design which was pasted on the glass wall. 

Lisa recalled their past conversation when they were newly weds. "Do you like pastel walls? Like yellow?" Rosé asked while holding a pencil and the sketchbook was at Lisa's back while they're lying on the bed. "What's your motif?" Lisa interestingly asked. "Hmm ducks," Rosé replied. "Ducks? Why ducks?" Lisa asked laughing. "Ducks are so cute. And also, ducklings are close to their mother duck. They're so cute when they waddle as they follow their mother duck," Rosé explained. "How about desserts? We can go for ice cream, cupcakes, brownies," Lisa suggested. "It can be because I feel that our baby will be sweet too," Rosé replied. "Sweet like me," Lisa teasingly said. "Excuse you," Rosé  said laughing. "So I'm not sweet huh? I will show you," Lisa said as she faced Rosé and playfully kissed her all over her face. Rosé tickled Lisa in return. "Okay, okay, I give up. It's you that is sweet," Lisa defeatedly said.
