I stirred and opened my eyes. Groaning at the sudden brightness of the room and turned to see hoseok hunched over my bed, sleeping whie holding my hand. I looked around to the familiar surrounding of the quarters and everything came back. Shuhua.

Tears blurred my vision and I covered my mouth with my free one, not wanting to wake my husband up. I feel a weight lifted from my hands and felt the bed dip and then a hug enveloped me. I sobbed at his chest as he hums and rubs my back soothingly.

"Shhh, it's going to be ok." I shook my head. How? She's gone.

"I can't believe it. I was just dreaming right? That's right. This must be just a dream." I started pinching myself and slap my face but before my palm could make contact to my cheek, hoseok had grabbed my wrist, stopping me and cupped my face.

"I know you have grown attached to her and I know how much you cared for her, but you have to be strong." His voice shook and his eyes were red. "Why didn't you tell me you collapsed before?" My brows furrowed in confusion

"When you fainted, I told them it was because of the shock but they insisted on taking some samples from you just incase because you fainted about a day ago too. You didn't tell me that." He frowns and I sniffed, wiping my tears

"It was just from exhaustion. I didn't want you to worry and stop me from doing full-time."

"Of course I'll be worried but how could I stop you from doing what you love? I just want you to take proper rest, take a break from it until you well enough to comply to your duties, that's all." he says, caressing my cheeks and I nodded

"I want to see shuhua." I mumbled and he held my hand, assisting me to get up. "Are you sure you can handle it?"

"Please." I looked at him with pleading eyes and he sighed. The funeral halls are located at the back of the hospital, we were on our way out when ga-in rushed towards us "Dr. Mina wants to see you."

"You can wait for me here, I'll be back" I told hoseok

"Actually, she asked to see both of you." Hoseok and I looked at each other and I asked "You know mina?" He raised his hands up in surrender and shook his head. I have heard about Dr. Myoi but we don't really have any interaction.

"Follow me." I let hoseok drag me as I tried to remember which department she's from. Before I can ask ga-in, we turned towards the Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology and stopped by a door where ga-in knocked before popping her head in. I looked at the door plate which reads:

Mina Sharon Myoi
OB-GYN

"You can go inside." Ga-in smiles slighty and moved out of the away to let us in. I hesitantly went in with hoseok, worried what it could be. Do I have any problems? Does hoseok have a low sperm count? But we already checked and we were normal. Was that a mistake? A million thoughts ran through my head

"Mr. & Mrs. Jung." She greets us with a shake of a hand and lead us to sit down on the chairs infront of her table and she went back on her seat.

"You must be wondering why I called you?" I nodded and she smiles

"You fainted earlier and just incase, Dr. Wonho had asked your husband's permission to take blood test from you and do a test." I looked at hoseok worriedly

"Is there something wrong?" Again, she smiles and handed me a paper

"Congratulations! You're two weeks in." My eyes widened as I stare at my result and looked up at hoseok who was equally surprised like I was.

"I'm pregnant?" I whispered in disbelief.

"Yes, that's why you should take care of your body cause you're carrying someone else now and you have to take plenty of rest and vitamins."

"I'm gonna be a dad." I darted my eyes from the paper to my husband "I'M GONNA BE A DAD!!" He repeated and scooped me up for hug. I laughed and cried, not knowing what to feel. My emotions are all over the place.

"Your department head must have already heard about it from ga-in, I think you should take a rest." Dr. Myoi softly says.

"I heard about your patient, dpn't let it get to you too much ok?" I don't know what to say and I suddenly can't breathe

"Byul?" I looked at hoseok's worried face "Byul-yi?" I collapsed, again.

🐾🐾🐾

I caressed byul's hair and sighed, standing up. "Her hormonal imbalance could be too much for her to handle with everything happening all at once." Dr. Myoi says looking at my wife peacefully sleeping.

"She's very sensitive right now and the death of her patient has made a huge impact for her. Her body is exhausted both phyically and mentally so she migt need to take a break from everything. Both studies and work to avoid her getting stressed and risk having a miscarriage." My heart ached hearing that. We want this but it came at such a wrong time.

"I don't think I can convince her to stop both."

"You'll just have to make her understand, your baby is her priority right now." I nodded

"Here's my card, contact me if you have any questions." She handed me her business card. I thanked her and she left us alone.

They decided to admit byul and put a dextrose on her. I sat down the chair by her bed and looked at her exhausted face and then slowly let my hand rest on her belly. "Hi there baby." I quietly talked

"It's me, appa. Eomma's having a hard time right now, but she loves you. Just hang in there ok?" I smiled and stood up to give her belly a peck and held her hand. "It's going to be ok byul. I'll be wth you every step of the way."
