Latched

Chapter 37: Spring and Snow

"Doctor, I'm here..."

A certain pink-haired man cheerfully opened the front door of a familiar clinic that he is so fond of. But what welcomed him is a frantic doctor wearing her hospital gown who is assisting a screaming pregnant woman and some medical equipment on a table, erasing his wide smile from earlier.

"You're here! Perfect timing! Will you please help me and Ms. Hobi? Her baby's coming out!"

Hearing that, his eyes automatically went to the watery floor underneath the pregnant lady. Then, his eyes went back to the brown-haired doctor who is now assisting her to lie down on one of the clinic's beds where he used to lie down before.

"I'm leaving." He said straightly and turned his back. But before he could walk away, his wrist was held by her.

"Don't leave us like this. Please help me." Sanzu had to admit, she looks really cute with her puppy eyes looking up at him at that moment. But no, he didn't like the idea of what he had just heard.

"Doctor, do I look like someone who helps in childbirth? Ask someone else. I'm leaving." He turned his back again but the doctor didn't let his wrist go.

"I don't have anyone else right now, okay? You just have to hold her hand while she's giving birth." It sounded ridiculous and weird. He couldn't believe that he got excited to drive his car to her place just to hold someone's hand while giving birth.

"Did you seriously call me just for this? Didn't you have other friends like Kazutora Hanemiya who could help you?" Her face made a frown hearing that. Perhaps, he isn't done sulking after what happened during their lunch.

"Ughhh!! Doctor!! It hurts! My stomach hurts! Please hurry up and help me get my baby out!" The two heard the woman cry out.

"Sanzu-kun, please... She said she can't give birth without holding someone's hand." Again, he made eye contact with her. Looking at her plead like that, he didn't believe that it has become his weakness. Thus, he inhaled deep and...

"Damn it." He mouthed lowly and sighed deeply.

"Fine. But I am not touching the baby and I'm not gonna fucking touch anything that comes out of her. Got that?!" He declared frustratingly yet made the doctor smile.

"Yes, I understand. Come here." As she said that, he pulled him towards her cabinet with medical supplies. The man removed his crimson coat.

"Wear this quick." She commanded and then proceeded to put the hospital gown on him. Since the tie has to put behind him first before being tied to the front, their position seemed like she was going to hug his waist. The man froze where he stood while looking at her tie the hospital gown around his waist. He got even more surprised when she looked up and put his surgical cap, making it seem like she was going to kiss him.

How whipped is he really for the woman? It's so weird and funny.

"Put these on." She added and then offered him a pair of gloves and face mask.

He quietly took them and put them on.

"Aghhh! Please hurry up! It hurts!" The pregnant lady yelled again, making the doctor run to her and put pillows under her head. Watching all this, Sanzu could only frown. But he didn't expect that what he's about to witness would shock him even more.

Sanzu sees the way the doctor pulled the woman's underwear and spread her legs. His jaw literally dropped watching the scene unfold before him.
