Loud music hit my eardrums as I entered a discotheque, hand in hand with Woo Ji Hyun, our rookie. We got down to the dance floor and started dancing. Detective Shim and Jangmi, who had already entered the discotheque, were sitting at the bar, while Team Leader Park on the second floor. We're not having fun. The earphones have been attached to each of our ears. We're scouting.

"At ten o'clock, a bald guy with black suit," Leader Park said.

We started to move, following that guy who walked to the a room with some girls. Before long, the man walked out of the room alone. Detective Shim and Jangmi followed him, while Ji Hyun and I waited a while before entering the room and arresting everyone in it. The girls who were brought in earlier were knocked unconscious by something they were drinking. The masher men in there mixed the liquior with the drugs to have fun with the unconscious girls, filmed them, then sold the pornographic video on an illegal website. Jangmi and Detective Shim also manage to arrested the mastermind. We brought they all to the office.

We just finish all this work when the sun has greeted us. So tired, sleepy, also hungry. Our rookie bought us sandwiches for breakfast. But just one bite, my stomach churned. I leave my sandwich and run to the toilet, puke out clear liquid.

"Hey, are you drunk? I heard you catch criminals at discotheque, did you drink too?" Asked Gyeong Ran while massage my nape of neck.

I shook my head while wash my mouth.

"I think I just exhausted."

"Sunbae-nim, are you okay?" Asked Jangmi while handed me a ginseng supplement.

"I am okay, just a little bit tired."

"This is weekend, just rest at your home," said Detective Shim.

"Oh? Weekend? Sunbae-nim usually going to traveling, aren't you?" Said Ji Hyun.

"Don't dare to go anywhere then absence in the monday because of sick. We have many jobs. If you sick, we die," threaten Leader Park.

"Tsk, I am okay, I am not sick. I'm leaving first," I said after grab my coat.

~~~

Rest at home in the precious weekend? Of course not. My love has waiting at the front of gate. I run to him.

"Sorry, I little bit late. Last night I catched some guys and just done my job this morning."

"You must be tired. Don't you just rest?"

I shook my head hard and pouted, "why all people asked me to rest? I miss you so badly. We haven't seen each other in almost a month because of the war."

Our last meeting was when I slept in his palace. At the dawn, there was an attack from Japan in Korean sea. Yeong drove me home because Gon must lead the war. I was very worried, even though we've experience this before. I always waiting for him in this bamboo forest every weekend.

"Alright, to what time we will go?" Asked Gon when we cross the gate.

"Hm... in 70's?"

~~~

We go to a cinema to watch 70's movie, but I fall asleep from the begining until the ending of the movie.

"Oh my god, I fall asleep! How's the movie?"

"It's the second movie."

"What?" I gasped.

"I paid one more movie so you can sleep little bit long."

I laugh at myself.

"Let's done our traveling today. Your face is pale. You must go home and rest."

I pouted, and he kissed my pout lips.

"I don't want you sick, my love. We can meet again next week."

I just sighed and nodded. I really don't feel well since yesterday. I hope I will be more well tomorrow.

~~~

I was wrong. My nausea is getting worse, especially in the morning. My dad scolded me, thinking I was drunk every night. I also lost my appetite. Hearing the word food, I'm already nauseous. I guess I really am sick. I don't know what illness I have. I plan to check myself into the hospital after work.

A delivery boy come to office, brought jajangmyeon that my comrades order. I covered my nose so I didn't smell the delicious scent of jajangmyeon which made me nauseous. But Jangmi stirred the noodle and put it on my table.

"Take this away! Do you want to see me vomit on my desk?"

"I am sorry, Sunbae. But I thought this is your favourite food. And you haven't eat from the morning."

I took the small plate of pickled radish, but pushed away the jajangmyeon bowl.

"This is enough."

"Huh?" Jangmi confused.

Detective Shim looked at me with squinting eyes, "Are you pregnant?"

I choked on the pickled I just swallowed.

"I see recently you are similar to my pregnant wife. My wife is also nauseous every day and has difficulty eating. She can only eat rice crackers and sour food. She loves pizza, but now she avoided it, she can even vomit if past the pizzeria. She must take a detour every time she goes and comes home from work. "

"That's impossible. Don't say nonsense."

"Why impossible? You have the 'weekend guy'."

That's impossible because I never forgot to took a contraception pill before went to the gate.

"That symptoms are not only experienced by pregnant women. There are many other diseases, for example gastric illness, or cancer."

"Do you prefer got cancer than pregnant?"

Of course not. I still wanna live. I am still young, I still have a lot to do. And I don't want to leave Gon that fast. But pregnant is worst, at least for now. With that 'unique' relationship, I cannot pregnant. I should not.

But that idea started to haunt me. I counted my period and realized that I was late for some weeks. It must be came a week after we had sex in the palace. I didn't pay much attention to it because I was busy.

Now I stop in front of a pharmacy, a little hesitant to enter it.

"Excuse me, I want to buy a pregnancy test kit. The most accurate one," I asked with very small voice.

"Yes?" The pharmacist didn't hear my voice, then I repeat it louder.

"Tae Eul?"

I turned quickly, surprised to see Mrs. Kim, Leader Park's wife.

"Oh, sister in-law..."

She glanced at the test kit that pharmacist gave me.

"This... uhm..." think fast, Tae Eul! "Na Ri. Na Ri asked me to bought it for her."

"Wow, is she pregnant?"

"No, uhm yes... I mean, I don't know. I hope so."

"Yeah, they have married for some month. I hope we can hear a good news soon."

I nodded then said goodbye to go back home.

~~~

I shed my first urine in the morning onto the test kit. I closed the screen using the palm of my hand. I was too nervous to see the results. After a few minutes, I slowly moved my hand, peeked.

One line.

Two lines.

Damn!
