"A-ah," I groaned as I felt Eunji kicking. "What's wrong?" Taehyung got up, looking so worried.
"Your daughter. She is kicking her poor mother..." Taehyung got down to my baby bump, one hand on my belly.
"Eunji-ah, stop kicking, hmm? Appa and Eomma need rest..." As soon as he said that, she immediately stopped kicking me.
"He listened," I smiled, "Good girl, do you need anything else, sweetheart?"
"Nope, I'm okay..." He kissed my belly and lips and laid on the bed to sleep after a long day.
Tossing and turning on the bed, my mind didn't want to shut off.
These days, my cravings have been shooting up. Just last night, I was craving some spicy noodles.
Now, I wanted some gimbap... Should I wake him up? Aish, he had a long day at work today... He still has to get up tomorrow...
Besides thinking of food that's making my mouth drool, I have totally lost my body shape.
Stretch marks on my belly, my face getting chubby.
I only had a month left to this pregnancy before I could get back at it.
"Babe? Why are you still awake?" He looked at me, wondering about all the reasons. "I want some gimbap..."
Taehyung chuckled at me, "Be right back!" He grabbed his wallet and keys and ran out of the house to feed me.
I waited in the dining room for him, and in less than 20 minutes, he was back. "I feel bad for troubling you,"
"Yah, you're my wife, the mother of my child. Of course, it's my duty to fulfill your needs. If I have to go across the country to make you smile, why not?" He caressed my hand.
"What about my body now? These stretch marks - " Before I finished my sentence, he interrupted me.
"I love you for you. Not for your body. All the stretch marks? They're beautiful. I look up to women like you who sacrificed themselves for a child."
"You're perfect just the way you are. Aren't you hungry? Come on, eat up!" He fed me the gimbap.
We finished the gimbap together, and we were both full. "It's not good to sleep straight away after eating. Shall we have a late night walk?"
I quickly agreed since he enjoys night walks.
I wore a coat and we went to the nearby park to walk around.
Taehyung held my hand as we walked around in the night breeze. "Our family walks will be so meaningful."
"Isn't it nice, my love?" He asked, "I can't wait for our daughter to be here. She'll be so special to both of us, and she will be so beautiful like her own mother."
"Of course, with both our looks, she will have the best facial features." He said.
"After Eunji, 4 more kids to go!" He exclaimed, "Yah, who even agreed on that? I'm not some baby making machine!"
"Did you forget? I'm a woman with a career, too, okay?" I pinched his arm. "Just kidding. I'll protect my family with my life."
"Good to know."
After that nice walk, we headed home and went to sleep.
