Saafeyah was feeling absolutely nauseated these days.

Even when she was at her in-laws house she was feeling sick. And she was struggling to eat certain foods.

She was in delusion and didn't want to think about the p-word.

She couldn't be with child right now. Not whilst they were dealing with the demon that was Sunbin.

Sunbin had every excuse under the sun to not get a paternity test.  But she kept asking for money. Saafeyah didn't think Henry should have to suffer because of his mom. Whether he was Woojin's child or not, Saafeyah always ended up convincing him to give the money.

Even if everything about the situation was starting to irritate him.

Woojin had also not allowed Henry to interact with Taehyun until they confirmed they were siblings. Saafeyah didn't understand why Sunbin was so nonchalant about it though - had it been her, she would have been so angry but the woman was just focused on the money.

Woojin had barely seen Henry as well. Sunbin just didn't want him around a lot - Saafeyah found everything about it strange...

Just as she was going to grab a sachet of tea, Saafeyah felt another dizzy spell. She crouched just waiting for it to stop.

"Mom, mom," Taehyun pestered alarmed. "What's wrong? Are you sick? Should I-"

"I'm just a bit dizzy, baby... it's fin-"

"I'm gonna go and get dad!"

Saafeyah wanted to tell him so bad to stop but her world was spinning real bad.

"Baby, what's wrong? Are you feeling sick? How many fingers am I holding up?!"

Woojin was alarmed.

He lifted up Saafeyah laying her down on the sofa. He sat close to her feeling worried.

"It's fine..."

"You're not - should we go to the hospital? Taehyun-"

"Woojin, it's fine - I just felt dizzy. I think- maybe I just really needed to lay down. Thank you."

"Taehyun, please just finish making the tea for mummy."

Once Taehyun was away from both of them Woojin took his chance to speak. He didn't really want Taehyun to get super worried.

"How long has this been going on?"

"Maybe... maybe three or four weeks."

"I'm booking an appointment babe - we should just see if there's anything wrong."

"I- but I don't want to."

"I'm not asking Saafeyah."
...

Woojin sat at his desk just very worried and anxious. He was worried about his lady and he wanted to stay with her. That coupled with the fact he was meeting Sunbin that day just made his mood even worse.

He sat at his desk with his lawyers and Sungwoo. Everyone knew better than to even breathe wrong in that moment.

"Should I just wait forever Sungwoo?"

"No Woojin, I've been calling her she said she's stuck in traffic."

"Saafeyah is sick right now - I don't have time for th-"

"She's all you care about," Sunbin complained bitterly entering the room. "She's not the only person in the world."

Woojin ignored her despite her speaking about Saafeyah like that irritating him. As far as he was concerned, she shouldn't even make statements alluding to Saafeyah.

"Give her the papers lawyer Jung."

Sunbin snatched the papers immediately throwing then on the table after reading a few lines. "What is this?"

"You think you're going to keep playing with me and my family. If you keep delaying getting Henry tested, I'm going to sue you."

"How could you sue me?! I'm the mother of your child-"

"You better pray that the child is mine because I won't let this go Sunbin... you will regret meeting me."

"Are you threatening me?"

"I'm promising you."
...

Woojin just wanted to be with his family.

He had a long day.

He missed his soon to be wife. He missed his son. He just wanted to sit down with his family and listen to Taehyun talk his ear off. He just wanted to watch Saafeyah get ready for bed as she told him about what she was annoyed about her day.

But instead, Woojin found a circus as he pulled up to his driveway.

He thought he was having an out of body experience as he watched Sunbin scream at Saafeyah at the door. Taehyun stood protectively in front of his mother as Henry cried probably terrified.

"What are you f- Sunbin have you gone crazy?"

His deep calm voice cut through all the yelling Sunbin was doing. Saafeyah had never been more thankful to see her man - this crazy woman had turned up at her door out of nowhere yelling at her.

And Taehyun had not appreciated that.

"Dad, she knocked my phone out of my hand when I tried calling you!"

Saafeyah was hoping their son did not say any of that. If happened so quick and she was going to call the police because there were kids there and Woojin just came and she was overwhelmed again.

"You did what," Woojin asked glaring at Sunbin. He reached towards her collar but Saafeyah hugged him holding him back.

"Baby, look at the kids- Taehyun please go play with Henry in your room, now."

The rare stern tone in Saafeyah's voice made Taehyun not even protest. He grabbed the younger boy's hand hurrying with him upstairs.

"What," she taunted, "you think you can threaten me? Don't you dare fucking threaten me?"

Woojin threw his head back thinking. He was really thinking in how he was going to handle this. Because he was thinking about whether he could get away with killing Sunbin.

Saafeyah's sweet pheromones filtered through calming a bit of his anger. "Wait for me inside, okay? I'll follow you inside," he softly instructed kissing her forehead.

He waited until the door closed behind Saafeyah before pulling out his phone. He didn't even acknowledge Sunbin just quietly watching him.

"Sungwoo, get this bitch away from my door in five minutes or I don't know what I'll do."
