Jin's Pov:

You assumed you could have deceived me, didn't you? Don't fret; we will see each other someday. That was the text message I had received from Taehyung. I had no idea what he meant by it. Honestly, I did have an idea, one I was hoping was wrong. I was now four months pregnant, and things were finally starting to look up for me. It was hard, but I was getting by. I was showing now, I didn't have a big bump, but it is evident that I was pregnant, notably with my small frame. My parents had delayed their trip and stayed with me a little longer, but the time was approaching where they had to leave. As much as my mother wanted to stay back with me, I couldn't do that. I had to let her go she belonged with my dad. I had neglected them anyway when I moved to Seoul, so it would be unreasonable for me to keep her stuck here with me while my dad goes to the U.S. They were concerned about me having the baby on my own. Which I think was a lie, I think they were more worried that I would do something stupid to the baby or their granddaughter I should say. I had found out last week the gender of the baby, and my mother was super happy as she was going to have a granddaughter to spoil, my dad, well, he preferred a grandson. I, on the other hand, preferred no kid at all, but what can I do? I wasn't provided with much of an option.

I assured them that it was okay they could leave as my friend Jimin would be visiting me, which of course was a lie. However, I had a feeling I would need to tell Jimin soon as he seemed to have been catching on that something happened between Taehyung and I. He was asking questions that weren't of the norm. I don't know if I could trust him, I wanted to, but I don't know.

I also had Dr. Kim, who was incredibly pleasant to me. He hates when I call him Dr. Kim and keeps reminding me to call him Namjoon, but I guess it was hard to call a doctor by their first name. I will get used to it, I think. He has been helping in explaining what my body is going through and also what to look forward to during each week of my pregnancy. He had given me a lot of videos to watch and suggested books on parenting. He had sensed that something was wrong with me and told me not to stress too much while pregnant as it can cause a more critical PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) once I have the baby. I told him I would try.

I was reading to my baby on a nightly basis; she was growing on me. I guess if I am going to carry her into this world, I should love her with all I got. I just prayed and hope she has no resemblance of her dad whatsoever. I wish I had slept with someone else besides Taehyung, then at least I would have a chance of this kid being someone else's. Unfortunately, I wasn't so I knew he was the father 100%.

My parents kept pressing me about the father of the baby. I finally told them it was a one night stand, and I had no connection with the guy. My dad seemed to have bought the story. Mother, however, called me out on my lie. Said, something didn't seem right. She thinks I was on the run. Well, guess what, she wasn't wrong, but I was not going to tell her that.

.............

"Jin, your phone was ringing, it's a Jimin." My mother said, handing me my phone. "Thanks, Mom," I told her as I took the phone a redialed Jimin's number, he picked up on the second ring.

"Hey Jin, how are you? How're the parents?"

"Jin, don't stay too long on the phone, your dinner is downstairs and staying hungry too long while pregnant is not good for my granddaughter." My mother yelled through the doorway before leaving. Shit! Please tell me Jimin didn't hear her.

"Sorry about that, Jimin. I am good the parents are go-"

"Jin are you pregnant?" You know that feeling in the pit of your stomach when you go into a panic, that was me right now. "Jimin what are you talking about?" I played stupid.

"Jin, I heard your mother loud and clear just now. Is that why you left? You are pregnant?" Jimin sounded so unsure and shock over the phone. I sighed, "No, Jimin, I did not leave because I was pregnant. I didn't know until afterward." Made no sense to lie.

"But how? Jin you are a saint." I chuckled at his words, yeah I wish, "I guess saints get pregnant too Jimin."

"I didn't mean it like that. I am just shocked, that's all. So let me guess your dad isn't sick, is he ?"

"No, he is not," I told him truthfully. "Wow, and if I guess correctly again, you are not in the U.S are you?"

"No, I am not."

"Wow. So you lied to us? But why?" I could tell he wasn't asking me the question, but more so himself as. "I didn't mean to lie. It turned out that way."

"Who is the father, Jin?" Please ask me anything else, but that.

"I can't tell you that."

"But I can guess, right?"

"Yeah, but I don't think you know him," I said, hoping this would throw him off.

He laughed, "Your funny. So are you implying that I don't know our boss Kim Taehyung?"

I dropped the phone from my ears.
