~ TZUYU's POV~

"It's been three days, why aren't they back yet?"

I tightened the grip I had around the handle of my mug as I heard Nayeon's stressful voice. It's been three days and yes... they haven't come back yet. I'm trying my best not to think about anything bad and put myself in dangerous emotional pain. All my mind repeated was that he would be back soon. He said he would be back as soon as possible so there's no need for me to worry. He's a man with his word, and he even promised that he would be back.

"They will be back." Betraying all the feelings in my chest, I muttered as if I wasn't afraid or worried about Jungkook. Although I didn't look at Nayeon I felt that her head was turning to me. She must be shocked to hear me saying something like this calmly. I just didn't want to show anyone the fire that my heart was burning from.

"Luna, how can you be so calm?" With Nayeon's question, I turned to her. Her eyes were slightly wide as she stared at me with a surprised look. How can I be so calm? I'm not calm at all, I'm just forcing myself to act as if I'm so calm.

"Jungkook promised me that he would be back, so l believe him. I will just patiently wait... it's not that I'm not scared or worried but I just don't need to stress myself by overthinking. With the situation I'm in, I can't put myself in danger." I said putting the mug on the coffee table. I hope Nayeon will understand what I just said. I leaned against the headboard of the sofa and closed my eyes, placing both my hands on my belly. I want to feel my daughter. I know that I will be giving birth to her soon but I'm worried that it will happen before Jungkook comes. Even if it happened, I can't do anything about it because I can't hold the baby back in me until he comes and I don't know where he is at this moment and what he's doing. I stroked my belly waiting to feel her movements but she didn't react which means she must be sleeping right now.

"Mommy, I found this..." Suddenly Ayaan came to me. I opened my eyes and looked at my baby to see he was holding a red stone. As soon as I saw it, my heart was covered with suspicion. What is it? I've never seen something like that before. I can be sure this is not a gem or a diamond.

"Where did you find it, baby?" I asked moving closer to touch the stone. "Near the pond... Ayaan replied.

I went outside a while ago and I was sitting on the bench near the pond but I didn't see something like this. And the strange thing was that I was feeling weird and suspicious seeing it as well as the fear of hearing bad news. I've never felt something like that.

"Okay, darling. Why don't you throw it away? Didn't Daddy say that not to touch dirty things? Daddy would be mad at you if he found out that you touched stones near the pond. So throw it away." Ayaan's lips pouted.

He watched me for a while and then nodded his head obediently. Maybe what I'm feeling is crazy and there's nothing wrong with that stone but that doesn't matter. He shouldn't touch the things that we don't know.

"Nayeon, follow him and make sure that he throws it away" With that I said, Nayeon got up and walked after Ayaan.

I watched them walking out and slowly looked up at the ceiling above me while my mind began to think about Jungkook again. Will he come today? Or tomorrow? It's been three days and hasn't he completed his mission yet? What about that mission? What kind of mission is that? My mind was crazy thinking about him. I just can't be patient anymore but what to do? I can't go and find him. I don't even know where he went and where he is now. As I thought about everything, I suddenly felt a sharp piercing pain between my legs... Horror took over me.

My heart began to thump inside of my chest. I slowly moved my hand and slightly pulled up the skirt of my dress. In a second, another wave of pain hit me. I pressed my lips together as I understood what was going to happen. The baby is coming... This is the same thing I felt when I was about to give birth to Ayaan. This is the same pain. Am I going to give birth to this baby without Jungkook? I felt like screaming and crying until Jungkook came but that's a totally stupid idea because he can't hear me. With the sharp pain in me, I felt something breaking. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, calming myself a little bit. I'm going to give birth and it's obvious... I'm sorry Jungkook... I won't be able to wait for you.
