No One's POV

“Hello?” the person answered groggily. “Hello?”

“Auntie,” Jihyun croaked.

“Jihyun? Is that you sweetie?” Mrs. Lu was now wide awake. Jihyun nods as if she was there in front of her and sobs. “What's wrong? Why are you crying?”

She started to panic as Jihyun started to hyperventilate.

“Sweetie breathe, deep breaths,” she said in a motherly tone. “It's alright. Take deep breaths.”

Jihyun soon started to calm down.

“Are you okay now?”

“Yes, thank you.”

“What's the matter dear? It's three in the morning. Did something happen?” Mrs. Lu made her way out of her bedroom, downstairs and into the living room.

“I'm sorry for disturbing you auntie. I just needed to talk to someone.” her voice was now hoarse.

“It's okay. Now what's wrong?”

“I'm in La right now. A friend of the family got a call from the hospital here saying that my father was involved in an accident, so we came to see him, but....it was too late,” she sobbed once more. She knew in advance about what had happened to Jihyun's father because of Luhan.

“Jihyun, I am so sorry,” Mrs. Lu could her how devastated the girl was and she couldn't help but to cry for her loss.

“I didn't even get to say goodbye or that I loved him. I didn't even get to hug him one last time.”

“Are you there by yourself?”

“I'm with a few people, but I needed a mother's comfort more than anything right now.”

“Sweetie, I'm so sorry. I wish I was there with you.”

“We're holding his funeral once we get back.”

“Is there anything I could do to help?”

“No, it's okay. My father already reserved his space right next to my mom years back,” Jihyun slightly smiled at the thought of her parents meeting each other again in heaven after so many years of being apart.

After hours on end on the phone, they finally decided to hang up.

“Oh! Auntie,” Jihyun started. She didn't know how to bring up the subject of her being pregnant.

“Yes?”

“Never mind. I'd rather tell you in person. Take care. I'll see you when I get back.”
