“Hyunjin, what are you doing?”
Jiwon frowned when she saw her husband stepping furiously on the gas.
“Uhm, Jiwon… I think we’re out of gas.” Hyunjin replied quietly, as if saying it to himself.
“Whaat??”
Their trip to Macau was canceled because of reasons Jiwon didn’t know existed…
“Umma, we’re going to Macau tonight” Jiwon said to her mom over the phone.
“No you can’t” Her mom replied firmly.
“Why not?”
“Pregnant women can’t ride the airplane”
“Why not?”
“Just because!”
“Then we’re leaving tonight”
“Jiwonnie~”
“Why?”
“They don’t allow pregnant women to ride airplanes”
“Why not?!”
“It’s dangerous…for your health”
“No, it isn’t. I read before I called you, it’s safe as long as I’m not yet giving birth.”
“Exactly!”
“What do you mean ‘exactly’?”
“You’re about to give birth…”
“Umma, I’m just 4 months pregnant. I’ve still 5 more months.”
“Just don’t! I’m coming over~”
“Okay, okay! You win! We’re not leaving anymore… Aish… bye”
“Ji~”
Jiwon glared at Hyunjin as if it’s his fault her mom didn’t permit her. Well, it is his fault. Who got her pregnant? Him… if not for him, she could’ve…
“Great! Just great!” Jiwon gave him another one of her death glares and looked outside the window.
They were in the middle of a road and the sides of it were trees. Forest.
“Where are we?” she asked. Hyunjin looked at her, and she’s definitely not happy. He swallowed hard, trying not to stutter. Pregnant woman are dangerous when they are angry, I might die in the middle of nowhere, especially if that pregnant woman is Choi Jiwon…
“Well…”
“Well?”
“I…actually…I actually d-don’t know.”
“You…Ugh!” Jiwon went out of the car and slammed the door hard.
“Y-ya! Ya Choi Jiwon!” Hyunjin went after her, “Where are you going?”
“I’m going to find a way home. I wanted to have a vacation, not a ‘be-lost-somewhere’ moment!”
“I’m sorry, I’m really sorry.”
Jiwon turned around to face Hyunjin—he didn’t know what to make of Jiwon’s expression, it was a mix of anger, sadness, disbelief and anger.
“When are you going to stop saying sorry?”
Hyunjin inhaled then exhaled it slowly, “Until you forgive me.”
Jiwon was just about to burst when suddenly a-very slow-car drove by. She waved a hand to the driver then suddenly, it stopped.
