👑EUNWOO👑

"Joy~ah, I'm back!" I shouted as I entered the living room. It was weird because the house was strangely quiet. Where's Joy? I looked around the house but she was nowhere in sight. I was about to call her and put the car keys down the coffee table when I noticed the invitation. I dropped the bag of kiwi. It felt like blood drained from my face as I watched the fruits bounce and roll, scattering on the floor. I suddenly felt uneasy, like something bad is about to happen. I tried calling Joy but her phone started ringing in the house. Apparently, she left it at the kitchen counter. I quickly dialed Irene's number.

"I think Joy went to see Sungjae."


SUNGJAE

"Did she tell you?" Changsub was grinning from ear to ear while wiggling his brow.

"Tell me what?" I asked him annoyed as I grabbed my mobile phone beside the box Joy left and resumed what I was doing before she came.

Changsub's expression became serious. He frowned and snatched my phone away from me, "She didn't tell you that she's carrying your child?"

"What are you talking about? She just left that box." I motioned towards the box in the coffee table.

"Hey man, did you not hear what I just said? She's pregnant with your child," Changsub said dead seriously. "Stop acting so stupidly Sungjae, are you really going to marry Luna?" he asked again when I did not answer him.

"She's pregnant, but it's not mine. It's Eunwoo's – " I didn't even finish what I was saying when he interrupted me.

"How stupid can you get?! How can it be Eunwoo's? You asked her to trust you, but what are you doing? Why do you doubt her?! You used to think more maturely than me, Sungjae! Aren't you tired of hurting her?!" Changsub exploded in anger, he was flushed and trembling, it seemed like he was about to throw a punch to knock the sense out of me.

"I received an envelope with Minhyuk's seal. And the contents were some documents about Joy's pregnancy and photos of Eunwoo together with her and being intimate. And there was this photo of them kissing – they were both wet as if they just finished swimming and it was taken at B Island..." I retorted.

"I didn't send you anything." Minhyuk who heard everything blurted out and looked around the room. "Where's Joy?"

"She left." I answered shortly while opening the blue box. Is the child really mine?

"PENIEL!!" Minhyuk suddenly shouted making me snap back at him who looks really worried.

"What?" Peniel peeked from behind the door.

"JOY'S IN TROUBLE!!"

They both ran and disappeared from the room followed by Changsub. What the...?! What did Minhyuk mean when he said that she's in troub –

I quickly followed behind them then I stood motionless and paralyzed with fear and shock as I helplessly watched everything happen before my eyes.


JOY

His cold words and the way he gazed at me kept playing in my head like a song on replay, sending daggers right through my chest, piercing my heart and making it hurt more as I walked aimlessly away from the room. I was all torn up, my emotions in turmoil. I feel lost and confused. Right now, I'm a total wreck – It felt like I've been fighting for something with all my strength for such a long time, but I was never meant to win that fight in the first place... it only left me exhausted and feeling empty.

My muddled thinking led me off my track. I was supposed to tell him the truth but... Tears streamed freely down my cheeks as I clasped the ring I wore around my neck with my sweaty hand. I was confused, sad and mad all at the same time. I was hurting with the words he threw at me nonchalantly that I lost my focus. I sighed loudly before letting go of the ring to dry my tears. I was standing at the top of the stairs leading down to the lobby of the building. I slowly took one step down but then I was startled when a hand reached out, trying to snatch the ring in my necklace. Shocked, I was torn between trying to get back the ring and keeping my balance. One minute I was fighting for the ring then the next thing I know, I was rolling down the stairs. My neck stings and my head started to hurt. I must have hit my head when I fell. I searched for the ring that I wore around my neck but my necklace was gone. I looked up at the stairs and found the culprit looking down at me smugly. My head throbbed in pain at the same time that my abdomen started to ache, radiating to my back. I panicked and tried to caress my baby bump worriedly while trying to get up. Pumpkin, are you okay? Did I have a bad fall? I kept on telling my brain that I need to get up but my body is not responding. I lay still on the floor and looked back again at the person who pushed me.

It was that familiar face. Luna. Why?

I was suddenly reminded of that same face that attacked me three years ago. It was her all along! I knew something was off when I saw her! How could I forget that face with those crazy eyes!? It was also her who tried to drown me twice at B Island. My body trembled in fear. I was afraid not only for myself but for my little pumpkin. She was still standing at the top most portion of the stair while holding something in her right hand, my necklace and my ring... Sungjae's gift, the only thing left that connected me to him. The growing pain was becoming unbearable - physically and emotionally speaking. I can feel my tears roll uncontrollably down my cheeks while looking at the necklace and ring dangling in her hand.

My vision started to blur. My world was starting to dim. And I was struggling to overcome it. No. No. No. Please... I'm starting to lose my focus. I heard footsteps and shouting as silhouettes of people ran and surrounded me. Am I safe? Pumpkin, are we safe now?

"OH MY GOD, SHE'S BLEEDING!"

"HURRY, CALL AN AMBULANCE!"

"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!"

"Oh my... Joy? JOY!!!"

"SOOYOUNG~AH, CAN YOU HEAR ME?"

Eunwoo? Help me. Help my baby, please? I begged but it came out as a whimper.

I felt someone grasp my hand. "STAY WITH US JOY~AH... SOOYOUNG~AH... PLEASE. I'M SO SORRY. IT'S MY ENTIRE FAULT. I'M SO SORRY... PLEASE... PLEASE..."

Sungjae? I willed my eyes to open and thankfully it did. It was really him and he was crying. He kissed my hand then my forehead after brushing off strands of my hair away from my face. "EMS is on their way, so hang in there... okay? I'm sorry... I'm really sorry..." he gently squeezed my hand. Why is it that I feel sad? I should be happy, right...? What if something bad happens to my little pumpkin? Can I forgive you? Can I even forgive myself? Tears escaped my eyes once again as my eyelids became heavier. My vision blurred once again. Pain and darkness slowly consumed me as I silently prayed for my little one's safety. Then everything went black and my surrounding became quiet.
