Gossip in the workplace spreads quicker than an elementary school virus. And though Haein had kept her pregnancy under wraps, with her slim frame it was not a secret that she could keep forever. Soon, even her most loose fitting dresses and suits revealed the new life she was carrying.
Hyunwoo had been warned that his sex life was bound to change, usually for the worse, even before the little tyke arrives. The mother-to-be's body and appearance will change, as will her sexual appetite. To some men, this would come as upsetting news, but to Hyunwoo, this seemed an utter impossibility.
Especially now.
If anything, in his very limited experience with a pregnant woman, it was the exact opposite.
Haein most definitely had changed in these weeks of late pregnancy, her body having filled out in many places. Standing before him now, with her hands on her hips, and a scowl on face, she looked positively furious.
But gorgeously so.
"I was really hoping we could go out tonight and have rice soup at that place we like," she huffed, swishing her hair behind an ear, "You said you'd be home a little late, but not four hours late!"
Hyunwoo tried to focus on her words, and maintain eye contact, but it was so difficult when she looked as beautiful as she did.
A violet silk robe hung loosely around her shoulders, not tied in the center, and left completely open. Her black lace bra and panties fit her well, but could not hide the way her body had grown. Her stomach was perfectly rounded, and her breast size had nearly doubled. The view made his hands twitch with the urge to touch her, to hold a full breast in his palm...
"Baek hyunwoo," she hissed, "are you even listening to me?"
Hyunwoo smiled with a shrug, clearly admitting his guilt.
"Mianhe, Haein-ah I forgot to text you, I was just too preoccupied earlier, I mean with training the new intern and stuff".
"And Seo young byeonsanim didn't have a car so I offered her a ride".
Shit. Haein's face changed from furious and dissapointed to enraged and jealous. I curse myself for being too honest this time.
"Seo young?"
"Ah your ex girlfriend is the new intern, I see why you were" "preoccupied".
I see the flames in her eyes and the nerves popping out of her forehead as she tries to restrain herself. She's just too cute yet this might actually be the last time I see her because after this conversation I might find myself six feet under.
"Yeobo it's not like that, you know that, I'm not the type to cheat. You said it yourself that I'm different. Remember?"
I try my best to explain the situatuon but she's just shooting daggers at me with those beautiful round crystal like eyes.
My words had the opposite effect, however, and her face fell. Instead of anger, Haein's expression was replaced with embarrassment and hurt, a slight blush now coloring her cheeks.
"I know," she said sadly, "I don't even recognize myself anymore. I can't fit into any of my favorite dresses. It's like I'm a stranger in my own body."
This time it was my turn to frown. This is certainly not how I anticipated this scenario to play out.
"I know I'm not as pretty as Seoyoung, so It's okay, I understand, I don't blame you..," on the verge of tears now, she began tying up her robe, shielding herself from Hyunwoo's gaze.
Stepping forward, he halted her hands. Hyunwoo gently untied her robe again, pushing it back open and letting the silk slide down her arms lazily. "No, you are absolutely nothing like Seoyoung."
