    “Are you feeling alright?”2af6d7046d98ab8a

    The person standing a72012215f before Yeonsoo was ad8337d901 the obstetrician who b32f1170af had examined her. She blinked rapidly, dd64ac5294 surprised to find de8c078722 the doctor at f0d89f7ab7 her door.aca4b6e467b9ae3e

    She had provided her 95cfde8ff4 address, but only as 22b448b3c1 a formality. What doctor would make 32e1f67a64 a house call just 7c32cf0aef to check on a adbd8c9b94 patient? Yeonsoo stared at 6ce0a8861b Mijung, unable to 6ab5b9daeb hide her suspicion.8552567dade68fb3

    The mystery was solved thanks to Junhyuk’s friend, who seemed to have accompanied the doctor.f7c571ca24629dbd

    The doctor who 2442e54932 had given her ff272dee02 an IV last 201658d5d0 night had now 746e4f2ba7 shown up with 97b6f32445 an obstetrician. Yeonsoo realized f9145d4322 who had ca774b7c2c sent them dc87fa4da5 and how 1782c18579 they were a6eaee1eee connected. She now understood how b025943385 Junhyuk had learned about 480e61edd8 her pregnancy so quickly.6de083b1f691bb7e

    She had planned to d0a8313ef9 go to the hospital 42bc04535f in the afternoon anyway. As if unwilling deed24b61f to wait, Junhyuk 491b7c3d53 had sent a 09b9e71168 doctor directly to 40e0c7bccd her home. It was a typical 4e40985fbf move for him.dd7d571c79d2ef9f

    Unable to turn them c29554e104 away, Yeonsoo let them 2716e26f02 in. Chungah, who had 1286fd7a9c been clearing away 82b9b94897 the fruit, noticed 8a3dce3283 them and approached 2d9d437614 the entrance.9fbc84739f9b657c

    Kibum waved awkwardly. Chungah scoffed. How dare he 4b52274d49 show his face 5f5535405c here again? And acting all friendly, 22be1e8a12 too. They were hardly 90ac864e7c close. Ignoring him, 9dc04a1976 she focused dbbd1fc460 on the 8a75ed04a7 woman who 61862c782a had stepped 4fa851b90c in front 38f42c79a7 of him.3769a71b1135626e

    “Where’s the bedroom? I’d like to examine her there quietly.”bdfb6b403087dfdd

    Chungah was even more taken aback by the woman’s confident request. Was this person a doctor, too? Why were so many doctors coming to her house? It was obvious this wasn’t Yeonsoo’s idea, and Chungah felt her annoyance with the absent Junhyuk rising.7c31789294ff602e

    After reassuring Chungah, Yeonsoo 18a11dd77c led Mijung to the c70cbb94de bedroom. Mijung closed the 3b07641cfe door behind them, 2fe7a3dc48 creating a private 9d61a66db0 space. She had 0868dbf4a2 Yeonsoo lie 378a95b1b9 down on c30d8495c3 the bed, 9022d1bec1 opened her 9e54272aa1 medical bag, b2fa9b2ca7 and began 7e679d9d69 a brief 014d93767e examination.53b46305247f772f

    She hadn’t been able to refuse Junhyuk’s request when he called that morning. She already felt uneasy. After all, she was the one who had inadvertently revealed Yeonsoo’s pregnancy.73d5c0a88aff1f2a

    She didn’t know the details of their situation, but she had clearly breached patient confidentiality. Ignoring it wouldn’t sit right with her.225e2adc298ef921

    Coincidentally, she had a cb237b4212 free morning due to a192fb9c97 a university lecture, and eac6f7c1ed she had caught a 7b2c65c2a9 ride with Kibum, who e4b04743c9 was returning from teaching 07e7b72622 at the same university.667043d284dfbf52

    In the car, she had learned the general situation. It was an unplanned pregnancy, and their relationship wasn’t on good terms. Junhyuk wanted to take responsibility, but Kibum wasn’t sure what Yeonsoo would decide.654e77773bd80f7c

    Yeonsoo asked calmly. She didn’t lash out or interrogate the doctor who had suddenly appeared. Knowing Junhyuk, Mijung understood why he was involved with this woman.42cb0417dbe75fe0

    Seeing no reason to hide it, Mijung was honest. Yeonsoo’s eyes hardened slightly before softening again. She didn’t seem to be misinterpreting the situation. Mijung felt comfortable telling her the truth because she seemed like someone who wouldn’t jump to conclusions.3fc1bf09cacdc06e

    “That was the only time we met, but he called me a few days ago. I didn’t know who it was when I answered, and he said his name was Choi Junhyuk, so I asked what he wanted. I think I made a mistake during that conversation.”f70831289b3e9b28

    She hadn’t planned to hide the pregnancy or have an abortion. He was partly responsible, and she had intended to tell him after she had sorted out her feelings. The only difference was that Junhyuk had found out earlier than she planned.0bd68a51f47603f4
