Chapter 35: Turn Around

8 ½ Months Pregnant

"Sir, are you sure there isn't any work I can do from home?"

"Oh no, no Miss. You take your time adjusting to being a mother. Jin will also have his times off, I think we agreed on him working 3 full days a week and then until noon Thursdays. He will be home for extended weekends until you both come back."

"Sir...you have no idea how much this means to me...to us." I started to tear up. "Thank you for not...l-letting me go."

Manager-nim came over to me and placed his hand on my shoulder. "You are a damn good worker...and promoting you has shown to be worth it. You and Jin being together has not negatively impacted our business in the slightest. I am happy for you both in fact." He withdrew his hand and gave me a smile. "Now...I do expect a picture of your little one in the onesie I baught." He said raising an eye brow.

I laughed. "For sure, Sir. For sure."

I met Jin out front of our offices and he took my bag from me.

"I still can't believe you worked this far into your pregnancy." He scolded me.

"I feel great Oppa...but all I want is a foot massage...my feet are SO swollen."

"Well when we get home, I will massage your feet." He said kissing the back of my hand.

We made our way down to the car and Jin played some light music holding on to my hand. Suddenly, at a red light...I felt...weird. I put my hand on my belly and Jin looked at me.

"You okay?"

"Yeah, I just felt weird."

"Weird...bad?"

"No..."

But then I felt a sharp throb between my legs and let out a loud yelp. Then...wetness...so much wetness. I looked down and yep...yep there's my water breaking.

"What is it?" he asked keeping his eyes on the road.

"Umm...I think we should turn around."

"Why did you forget something?"

"Uhh...nope...but the hospital is in the other direction."

"The what?"

Another sharp throb flashed through my body. "Hospital...Oppa."

He looked over at me and his eyes went wide gasping loudly. "I-is...the baby..."

"Oh yeah...baby is coming."

Safely...as safely as a nervous to be father can manage...we made it to the hospital. He jumped out of the car at the emergency enterance running over to my side.

"H-how are you f-feeling?" he asked me helping me out of the car. I smiled up at him and kissed his lips.

"Relax, baby."

"I should be saying that to you." He laughed nervously.

Just then a few patrons from the hospital came out with a wheelchair and Jin gave me my favorite pillow. They put me in a pink room and Jin helped me get comfortable on the bed they provided. I leaned back and took a deep breath...another small sharp throb flowing through me. I squeezed my eyes shut and it faded quickly, Jin held my hand and leaned towards me.

"Jin Oppa, I love you." I said squeezing his hand. I saw a tear drop from his eye and he looked up to me.

"I love you more." He said kissing the back of my hand.

Within a few hours, those small sharp throbs became lingering painful stabs between my legs.

"AAhhhh!!"
