Second Chance [YuKook Story]

Chapter 19

YUNA’S POV

“Chagi, the baby is 7 months now. It’s time to buy some baby stuff, right?” Jungkook suggested when we were folding clothes.

“When are we going to buy?” I asked while topping up the folded clothes.

“How about this evening? We’ll bring Sejeong along,” he suggested again.

“Okay,” I answered simply.

“Erm…” Jungkook seemed hesitated.

“Yeobo, wae?” I asked him.

“I’m thinking of bringing Eunbi along. She can start buying little by little.”

“But she’s just 3 months, right?”

“It’s not wrong to buy earlier, right? I’m afraid it will be hard for her to buy few weeks before due. She won’t have anyone to go with her. I don’t always have free time,” he debated.

I kept silent. He’s right.

“Okay then. I’ll call her and tell we are going in this evening,” I gave in.

“Eo, it’s okay! I’ll call,” Jungkook offered himself. I just nodded. Up to you, hubby!

“You gave to be more careful in your first trimester, Eunbi… Don’t lift heavy things. Let me carry them for you,” Jungkook offered himself. I just watch him being all sweet to Eunbi. And Eunbi being sweet to him too. Jungkook! Your wife is behind you!

I’m done!

“Mummy, let me help you,” Sejeong lend her hand forwards.

Her voice quite loud to make me jump. But not loud enough to make Eunbi and Jungkook realised I was behind them. Especially Jungkook! Did he forget his big-tummy-pregnant wife is behind him and was carrying such heavy and a lot of stuffs??!! At this rate, it’s not even impossible for me to give birth here!

“Here,” I handed the paper bags to my daughter.

“Ark,” I held my back. It’s painful!

“Are you okay?” Sejeong asked me.

“I'm tired. I'll sit. You go and tell appa, okay?” I asked her help. Without waiting for Jungkook, I look for a seat in that mall.
Suddenly, I felt a pair of hand on my both shoulder. I didn’t reject them because I recognised this smell.

“Why didn’t you tell me you’re hurt? Sit here, okay? I’ll get some mineral water,” Jungkook came at the right time though it’s a bit late. It’s okay. I forgave him.

“Eunbi, take a look at my wife and my daughter, please. I’m going to buy some mineral water,” Jungkook asked Eunbi’s help. Thankfully he still remember my position as a wife!

“Eo. Kkuk, nado (I want too),” Eunbi asked Jungkook to buy her mineral water too.

“No problem. I’ll go and buy first. You sit here with Yuna and Sejeong. Sejeong, take a look after mummy and aunty, okay?” Jungkook then ordered Sejeong too.

Sejeong nodded without looking at her dad. Was she mad?

Jungkook’s figure getting smaller. Slowly, he lost from my sight.

“Jungkook… is really responsible, right?” Eunbi break the silence between us.

I was surprised. To be honest, ever since Eunbi is back, I was not so close to her, like we used to be. So… Er… It’s kind of awkward.

“Eo,” I answered, afraid that she’ll get offend if I kept silent.

“If only Yoongi as responsible as him…” Eunbi sighed. I knotted my eyebrows.

“Did Yoongi hurt you?” I asked.

Eunbi who was kept her head low now raised her head. Her expression really showed that she was shocked.

“No! It’s not like what you thought! Yoongi… is kind. Very kind. He knew about Jungkook but still he let me met and invited Kkuk to our wedding day. Yongi was the one who encouraged me to apologise to you. The thing is, Yoongi is perfect. From all aspects. More than Jungkook. But… It’s just… well… he left me with our baby,” she sighed.

“Eunbi-yah…”

“Sorry… I didn’t meant to complain. Just… Well… I’m just curious… How is it felt like to see the foetus is growing with our husband? How is it felt like taken care by our husband in our pregnancy?” Eunbi wondered. I knew her feeling. Because I’ve been in her shoes.

The difference was that, at that time, I don’t want to be with Jungkook. Maybe there was a bit wants of the husband pampered me when I was bearing his child. And at time, I know that Jungkook still exist in the world. It was up to me to go back into his arms.

But Eunbi? She wanted Yoongi to be with her. She wanted Yoongi to watch the baby bump with her. Maybe, in the future, she wanted to feel the baby kick inside her tummy with Yoongi. And Eunbi… though she was still hoping that Yoongi would come back to her, that event won’t happen. And the event surely and absolutely IMPOSSIBLE.

“Eunbi-yah… I don’t feel what you are feeling so I can’t understand it. And Yoongi… surely there’s no one can replace him. But I just want you to know that I and Kkuk are always here if you need us. Don’t be shy to look for us if you have any problem, okay?” I tried to give her some positive vibes. I know that words like ‘stay strong’ won’t be enough to her.

Eunbi giggled.

“I can’t always troubled you guys. You must felt jealous every time I called for Jungkook, right?”

I froze. She’s right. But, Eunbi got nobody here except me and Jungkook. She got no parents. She live all by herself. Friends? Eunbi had stopped from acting long time ago.  Maybe she lose contacts with her celebrity friends since they have to keep changing their number. And now, she’s a fashion designer. But she’s regarded as new here since she worked in New York before. So, in a nutshell, she just had me and Jungkook as the closest member.

“Nado yeojaya (I’m a woman too). I know what you feel. Mianhae, Yuna-yah…”

“It’s nothing. It was just me being sulky all time. As long as you and Jungkook stay as a friend, I’ll be fine. But if you tried to take him away, I’ll punch you!” I warned her jokingly.

Eunbi laughed.

“Never. I won’t ruin my friend’s marriage,” she vowed.

Jungkook came with two bottles of mineral water. The first one was given to me and the latter was given to Eunbi. I still secured my seat for several minutes until I got the strength back to walk again. We shopped for a few stuffs before we go home.
