Chaeyoung.
Seoul National University Hospital.
"What time is her flight here, Bobby?" I asked the moment the latter entered the hospital room. I was still not diluted enough to push the baby out. Bobby looked around and sighed. Jae-yong is sleeping right now and I looked at my daughter fondly. I have a lot of questions for her but I'll do it later.
"She'll draw a door to get back here immediately, Chaeyoung. Jisoo is so worried about you and Hoyeon already relented. I'm still taking precautions. She'll probably be here, 3 hours at the most." I sighed then gasped for breath as another contraction hit. At the rate things are happening, I might push the baby out in another hour.
"I didn't know what had happened but is it possible that I have actually heard my unborn child speaking to me in my head?" I asked Bobby in a hush.
"I have never heard about anything like this, Chaeyoung. I'm getting a little worried because this is the first time," Bobby answered and sighed.
"I know. Me too. I'm scared to be honest. It didn't happen when I was pregnant with Jae-yong. Speaking of, my daughter is telling me the same thing I have experienced. She heard someone calling out to her to help me."
"What?!" Bobby asked sharply.
"I know, I know. But it doesn't seem to be a tall tale considering that I haven't even had the strength to call her because of my shock. I don't know what to do. Did you bring my phone by the way?"
"Oh yes, I almost forgot. Here," Bobby answered and handed me the phone. I saw multiple missed calls from my wife and messages as well. I didn't have the chance to grab the thing in my panic and the moment I saw Jae-yong rushing to me, crying.
"Thank you, Bobby," I murmured. The latter reached out and patted my arm gently then caressed Jae-yong's head.
"Please call me if something comes up, okay? The doctor will be here in another 10 minutes." I nodded and sighed.
"I will. Please tell Jisoo to head here right away as soon as she arrives."
"As if we can stop her from coming here once she arrives. Hang in there, Chaeyoung," Bobby said and chuckled. He went straight to the door.
"Right. Thank you by the way for bringing me here. I lost it in a panic and for what has happened."
"Don't worry too much about it, Chaeyoung. Taeyang and I did what we know is right. Try and get rest for now. The doctor will be here soon." I nodded again and the latter completely went out the door. I took a deep breath again and caressed my stomach gently.
Jae-yong stirred in her sleep but didn't wake up. I smiled as I reached out to caress her hair gently. My daughter is really grown up. Even though she's crying, she still has her head straight and helped me be comfortable before calling Bobby. I seriously didn't know what exactly had happened and it's all a little strange.
The Blood Moon and my unborn child speaking to me and Jae-yong. I couldn't get my head wrapped around it. It seemed so impossible.
"I don't know what exactly is going on but please don't scare Mum like that again, my little blubber," I whispered softly as I caressed my stomach more. There was another contraction and I stifled a groan of pain.
"Mummy, it's getting a little uncomfortable here. When are we going to come out?" I froze inside the moment I heard the little voice in my head. I looked around frantically. It's just me and my daughter in this private room. My heart spurted wildly in my chest. It's not just an imagination anymore.
"My little blubber?"
"Yes Mum?"
"Oh my God," I breathed. There was another contraction and I hissed in pain, as quietly as I could.
