"San, let's do a general check-up!"

Yunho invited his friend, whose desk was next to his, to undergo the company's monthly comprehensive health examination.

"I already did it last week, remember?"

Yunho slapped his forehead. "Oh my, that's right. How could I forget?"

"You're too busy with work, letting me leave you behind, remember?"

Yunho nodded dejectedly.

"What about Hongjoong hyung?"

"I see the doctor every day, no need for things like this," Hongjoong said without diverting his gaze from the computer.

Yunho rolled his eyes. "Alright, alright, the doctor's husband."

In the end, he went to Skinner Clinic alone.

There, Seonghwa conducted an examination on Yunho according to the procedure. Many things, from head to toe. From external to internal. Everything.

Until everything was done.

Alright, Yunho, you can collect the results tomorrow."

"Okay, doctor, thank you very much."

"But, Yunho, I can verbally inform you of your pulse examination results now."

"Oh, really? That's unusual. Why is that? Is my pulse weakening?"

Seonghwa shook his head, taking off his round glasses. "On the contrary. Normally, for an adult male, it should be fifty-five beats per minute. But yours is one hundred and thirty. Isn't that too drastic?"

"Huh? I remember clearly that I was walking leisurely here earlier. Not running?" Yunho widened his eyes when something occurred to him. "Doctor, I don't have heart disease, do I?"

Seonghwa chuckled softly. "No, relax. It just indicates that you lack nutrients. Are you on a diet?"

"Oh?" Yunho laughed. "You know, a diet is for health. I'm just eating more vegetables and reducing meat consumption, replacing it with eggs, cheese, and milk."

You're quite clever, living a healthy life without me telling you."

Yunho rolled his eyes. "I thought everyone does that? Besides, who wouldn't want to live a long life? Before successfully living happily with my little family, I didn't want to die first."

"Well, in the past, you ate whatever you wanted, as long as it was delicious and filling, without thinking about the negative effects of those foods. Just like my kids."

"Yeah, that was then. Now I've changed. So, is there another reason behind the increase in my pulse rate?"

"Nervous tension. You're excessively anxious about something, beyond your normal anxiety limits. What are you thinking about?"

Yunho fell silent.

He had tried to appear happy as if there were no burdens in his life. For two years, he had struggled with his husband to bring Junghwan into their lives, but they always failed. How could that not weigh on him? He thought about it all the time. But he never showed his heartache to anyone. Because he didn't want to seem sad and make others pity him. That he was always fine. And he succeeded; no one caught his sadness. But Seonghwa...
