Chapter 25

"JeongSa"

JEONGHAN's POV

"Come on, Jeonghan. Just tell her the truth!" Joshua said. I harshly pulled my hair, "Do you think it's easy, huh? What should I do? Go to Sowon and tell her I'm sorry, I don't love you. I love my ex and we're going to have a baby now ?" I asked him.

He froze and glared at me, "you see. I'll give you two choices now."

"Tell Sowon the truth..."

"What's the second option?"

"Or forget about Jeongyeon and your daughter. End of discussion," he said and stood up then walked away.

Why am I so tensed and stressed? Carats supported Sowon and me. I wonder what would be their reaction once they learned about my daughter?

I groaned. Why am I overthinking?

The door opened and I am hoping to see Joshua but I'm wrong. Shit.

It's Sojung.

"Jeong?" She asked.

My heart started beating fastly, not because of love but because of nervousness. How am I going to tell her? Should I just keep it a secret and wait for her to fall out of love?

But if I don't tell her now. I might lose Jeongyeon and my daughter. I can't risk that. Never.

"Sojung," I called her real name. She looked shocked but still sat beside me. We stayed there for minutes. Awkwardness is in the air and it's pretty obvious that she knows something bad will happen.

I don't want to hurt her. But I can't love her. I tried, but I simply couldn't.

"Jeong. I know, you don't have to tell me the words," she said and looked at me. Those sad eyes, tears are building up.

For the first time in my life. I felt guilty for cheating. I never loved her, I am just forced because of the pressure.

"I know you love her. I know about your daughter. You better take care of her, Jeong..."

"Sojung..."

"I'm sure you're wondering why am I here. It'll be a shame to ask this to you this but I'm swallowing my pride now and I will ask you this," she said. She looked down and looked at me again, "can you act as if you love me even just for this day? Can we go out today? This would be the last time, Jeong. I want to be happy with you, even if you'll act. Please..."

I smiled, "of course."

JEONGYEON's POV

I laid down on his bed. Yes, I am staying with Jeonghan. It's been two weeks since I moved here. He personally asked my family to let me live with him.

He also asked PD-nim and informed my members before I moved here. I looked at the side table and our picture is framed there. Beside the picture is my sonogram.

3 months to go. I will see you soon, baby.

He went to their dorm today. It's fine and I'm not feeling lonely. I stood up and walked to the kitchen to eat food.

The door opened and it revealed Jeonghan. I put my food on top of the plate and approached him. He walked towards me with a smile, "Are you okay?" He asked and I nodded. He suddenly knelt down to feel the baby.

"Hey, baby. Have you been good to mommy?" He said as he touched my baby bump. "I'm glad she's not taking before you," I said.

He pouted and looked up to me, "what do you mean by that?" He asked.

"I said that she's not like you. She is well behaved," I said. Jeonghan laughed and hugged me before taking off his coat.

It's winter and it's very cold outside.

"Are you cold?" He asked. I nodded, "A bit."

Then he turned the heater on then moved to the kitchen. "What do you want to eat?" I asked, preventing him to go to the stove as much as possible to avoid a mess.

"I'll just cook ramen," he said. I stood up and walked towards him, "I'll handle that. You should rest, I'm sure you're tired," I said.

He smiled, "Look at you acting like my wife now."

"Oh... you don't want to? Well, the-- hey! That's stealing!" I grumpily said but was cut off when he stole a kiss from my lips.

He just laughed then walked away to sit down. I shook my head a bit. He's still very childish, as always.

SANA's POV

"YAH OPPA! PUT ME DOWN!" I said. Junhui suddenly spun me around while I am having a piggyback ride. "You chose that, Sana. Don't blame me for this," he said. "Kaja!"

Then he ran towards our practice room. Once we arrived, the whole place is so dirty, well, as expected. "Should we just start cleaning this instead of playing?" I asked. He dropped me and nodded.

I got the broom and started to sweep the clutter off. Junhui carried the trash bin to help me with the cleaning. Honestly, I haven't cleaned in our dorm since Jihyo or Jeongyeon Unnie will be the one to clean it after we made a mess but it's different here.

It's just me and Junhui. Alone but together.

"Sana," I looked at him as he called my name. "Yes?"

"I told you before that I'll help you, do you remember that?"

I nodded. "What about it?"

"I think we should change together," he said.

"W-What do you mean?"

"I said let's change together, Sana. We'll help each other in this way, it'll be better," he said.

I smiled then nodded. "As your friend, I will be here with you starting today," I said.

Junhui suddenly cam running toawards me then he hugged me. "I'm sorry for the likey incident," he said.

I hugged him back, "don't bother. If it wasn't for that fight, we won't be like this today," I said.

He smiled.

He's so handsome especially when he smiles like this.

"Did I mention that staring is rude, Ms. Minatozaki?"

I rolled my eyes. Him and his over confidence.

But when you think of it, he's really handsome and I don't mind staring at his face 24/7.

"Alright, you can stare at me more. But you'll let me stare at you, too," he smirked. I playfully hit him.

I kinda like that ide--- WHAT THE HELL SANA?!

I closed my eyes for a second to calm myself down but when I opened them, I saw Junhui's face in front of me. He's staring at my eyes and I got shivers when I saw my reflection reflected on his eyes.

"Can I kiss you?"

The world stopped. It's just us. I lost control when I pulled him for a kiss. It's not like before, this is different. The first seems forced and fake.

We pulled out. This time, the kiss was quicker. We won't risk losing ourselves.

"Damn, I think I like you now," he cursed.

"What?"

"Nothing."

His hands landed to my shoulder, "let's continue cleaning this mess."
