It's 3 p.m when Nayeon opened her eyes and saw Taehyung fell asleep beside her. She move carefully not to wake Taehyung up before going to toilet.

After a long sleep,she felt better than earlier.

She wandered around the hospital as her eyes keep seeing various sick people. There were old man,a lady like her and a kid. Sickness doesn't choose its victim. Anyone can be sick including an innocent baby.

Nayeon eyes spotted a crying woman near the doctor's room. She looks younger than her. Based on what Nayeon could conclude,she has been crying for hours. She then approached her before patting her back.

"Why are you crying?"

Hearing her question,the woman looked into Nayeon's eyes. That eyes filled with tears; painful tears. The pain that Nayeon knows she won't ever understand. That unbearable pain.

"My baby.., my..," she sobbed ever harder resulting Nayeon to spread her warmth by hugging her,giving her comfort. They weren't that close but Nayeon knows that this woman needs someone.

"Shhh,it's okay. If you aren't strong enough to tell me,it's okay. I won't force you"

"I just killed my baby.. I just abort (?) My own baby. My flesh and blood" she stated weakly making Nayeon freeze on her spot. The woman cry because she just abort her baby?

"I regret! What did I do?! Killing my own baby?!" Suddenly,she released the hug and yelled. Nayeon was taken aback as she heard her words.

"I'm a bad mother. I'm murderer. I don't deserve to live!!" She hit her head against the wall but Nayeon managed to stop her. There's no one to help her so Nayeon used all her energy to pull the woman from hitting her head.

"No you're not a murderer.. Shh,calm down" Nayeon hugged her again,tighter as she escort her to sit on a bench nearer.

"I feel so regret.. My baby.." She keep sobbing and Nayeon couldn't help but crying along seeing the woman. She seems so weak.

It was a long hugging session before Nayeon realized that the woman already fell asleep in her embrace.

She sighed as she called male nurse to bring the woman back into her room.

"What happen to her?" She asked curiously.
"She just abort her baby yesterday but it's too late as she regret her decision." The nurse replied.

"What's the reason ?"

"She's too young to carry a child. She just 19 but married early. It was her parents plan. After finding out that she pregnant,her family were so happy including her husband who's 5 years older. But she doesn't want the baby as she felt that she couldn't bear a child in highschool. She would be embarassed. But,her husband asked her to keep the baby,let alone about what people think..,"

"But she still with her decision to abort the baby?" Nayeon cut the nurse named Gongchan.

"Yes"

"Then what were her family's reaction?"

"They were mad and told her that if she abort the baby,they won't ever accept her in the family. And her husband,felt so sad that he divorced her."

Nayeon gasped as she closed her mouth.

*****

"Would I experience the same thing as Chaeyeon?" Nayeon keep thinking about that ever since she met with the woman named chayeon.

Chaeyeon's life was such a pity. Her decision made her lose everything ; family,love and most important, a child. Nayeon keep thinking about that. What if her family abandon her too? What if Taehyung divorce her too?
