As I prepared for the doctor's appointment, the tension was palpable. I opted for an oversized jumper and shorts, pairing them with my favorite Nike black and white shoes for a comforting ensemble. The sight of anything too bright, particularly pink clothing, made me grimace as I reached for a plain white T-shirt to wear underneath my jumper. Just as I was about to pull it over my head, San entered the room, a steaming mug of coffee in his hands, his gaze immediately scanning my bare chest and roaming over my body.

I glanced his way, catching his slightly tilted head as he studied me with an intensity that seemed to pierce through the morning calm. "You know, I don't think the doctor is wrong," he remarked, his voice contemplative as his eyes lingered on my stomach, sparking a mix of curiosity and apprehension within me.

Surprised, I raised my eyebrows at him while pausing with the T-shirt halfway on. "What do you mean?" I asked, my voice tinged with a hint of defensiveness and a sliver of vulnerability.

As I adjusted my shirt, instinctively trying to conceal my stomach, San gently set his coffee cup on the dresser. He stepped up behind me, his presence immediately comforting. A gentle smile played across his lips as he leaned in, planting a soft kiss on my cheek.

"What I mean," he whispered close to my ear, his voice carrying a reassuring tone mixed with a hint of awe, "is that I don't think there are any medical abnormalities or issues." He paused, letting the words sink in. "You're just one in a million, lucky enough to have a little miracle." His words, warm and encouraging, lingered in the air, suggesting a blend of wonder and positivity.

With a tender touch, San lifted my shirt slightly, turning me to the side as he did so. His fingers were gentle, his actions filled with a curious reverence as he looked at my stomach. This gesture, intimate and revealing, felt like a physical manifestation of his support and belief in the unbelievable news we were processing.

I paused, taking in his words, allowing the notion of a miracle to percolate through my skepticism. "A miracle," I echoed, the word tasting strange yet somehow right on my tongue, as I tried to align my perspective with his hopeful outlook.

San's words were gentle and encouraging as he turned me to face him, his hands holding mine with a reassuring warmth. "Imagine how many men get this lucky to be able to carry a child, to grow it inside them and give them their heart and love. We're lucky, and there's nothing wrong with you—you're just incredibly lucky. Imagine little Han when he becomes a big brother," he whispered softly, his eyes shining with a mixture of excitement and wonder.

The thought of our family expanding in such an unexpected way brought a mix of emotions. I pondered the enormity of what San was saying, the uniqueness of our situation slowly sinking in. It was a perspective I hadn't fully considered, overshadowed by initial shock and disbelief.

"Little Han as a big brother," I murmured, letting the image form in my mind. The joy of seeing Han interacting with a sibling, teaching and guiding them, filled me with a surge of happiness. It softened the edges of my anxiety, replacing it with a budding excitement about the possibilities.
