Before Natalie finishes counting to five, Minho’s mobile rings…and Natalie continues…

Natalie:            fi…five…. 
                       
                         (smiling) What did I tell you…

Dr. Tiffany:      (looks at Natalie) Dear… you are good ha…?
                        How did you predict that…?

Natalie:            (smiling) Instinct Auntie…

Minho:             (nods) Please excuse me… I need to answer his call…

Natalie:            (nods) Go on Minho…

Minho:             Thank you…

                        (walks away from them) Yes…Bummie…

                        I have already informed Onew hyung prior
                        to sending you the message.

                        (lifts her head to look at Tiffany) Auntie…
                        he wants to extend regards and thank you…

Dr. Tiffany:      (grins) Tell him thank you too…

Natalie:            (goes back to Kibum) Dr. Tiff says thank you…
                        hon, by the way sorry to bother Minho… thank you…
                        Yes, I will call you when I need something…
                        By the way…Key?

                        Thank you so much for everything and
                         I love you so much….Take care…. I…I…am…ok…

                         (looks at Minho in watery eyes then bites her bottom lip)
                         Good bye Honey…

                         (gives the phone back to Minho) Minho…

Minho:             Hello… it’s me again…
                        Yes, I will take care of her… don’t worry…
                        hhhmmm…yeah….same here…bye…

Dr. Tiffany:      Dear….sssshhh... be careful… Natalie…

Natalie:            (sobs) Ye..yeah… I…I am so…sorry…

                        (takes a deep breath and pauses for a moment)
                        pppheewwww…… I am fine…

                        (smiles again) I… am ok…

Minho:             (controlling his emotions) Natalie…
                        I am here… remember…?

Dr. Tiffany:      (directs the attention to the room) Oh… here we are…

                        (opens the door) Natalie, Minho…
                        please have a good rest… ok…?

Natalie:            Auntie….

Dr. Tiffany:      (turns her head to look at her staffs) So let’s go…

Natalie:            Auntie wait…

Dr. Tiffany:      (looks at Natalie) Yes…Dear what is it…?

Natalie:            About what we have discussed.

Dr. Tiffany:      (nods and looks at her staffs) Please go ahead
                       and leave me here with Ms. Natalie and Mr. Minho…
 

Soon as the hospital staffs leave the suite room, Natalie requests Minho to pick her up from the wheel chair to sit on the sofa thus Minho gently takes Natalie’s hand and then guides her towards the living room area where the sofa is and sits beside her to protect her from any incident like falling. And when Natalie is comfortable she speaks…

Natalie:            Auntie… There is something that you need to know too…
                        Other than you, my parents and Minho;
                        there are still two persons with whom
                        I have shared and discussed my situation…

Dr. Tiffany:      Who are they…?

Natalie:            Mr. and Mrs. Lee Taeyang…

Dr. Tiffany:      Ooohh… that is good then…
         
                        (exhales loudly) Now that is better…
                        wait where is Kibummie…?

Natalie:            He is on a business trip…

Dr. Tiffany:      Oh… I believe he does not know that this is your time…?

Natalie:            (nods) yeah…
                         he knows that the operation will take place next week…

                         (looks at Minho) Minho… are you alright?

Minho:             (nervously nods) hhmm… ye…yeah…

Dr. Tiffany:      (rubs Minho’s back) Don’t worry Minho…
                        Natalie is a very strong person…

                        (looks at Natalie) My dear… 
                        it worries me how Kibummie is going to react
                        once he finds out though I know him so well
                        but am doing this out of respect for Natalie,
                        I am worried…

Natalie:            (looks back at Tiffany) Auntie,
                        do you have the documents we need to sign…?

Dr. Tiffany:      (gasps) Oh… let me get it from my safe…
                        but wait because I need to add new names as well

                        (looks at the two) Guys I will be back…

Natalie:            (smiles) Ok Auntie…

When Dr. Tiffany leaves, Natalie inspects the surrounding while rubbing her belly then her eyes focuses on Minho, smiles and says…

Natalie:            I can see you are pretty nervous, ha?

Minho:             (nods) Yeah…
                        I have never imagined myself inside of a hospital
                        not ever once and this first time is like huge for me…
                        so I am kind of overwhelmed…
                        Natalie…?

Natalie:            (query tone) Yes…Minho…?

Minho:             Does Auntie Tiffany know that you know Kibum?

Natalie:            (nods) yeah… but I requested her not to tell Kibum about it…
                        but I have a feeling Kibum knows about me…
                        we both possess good IQs…
                        but I believe, Kibum chose to leave things as they are…

Minho:             (nods) I see…

                        (shakes head) kind a complicated… ppufff…
                        funny that each of you hides secret which
                        actually each of you knows…aaaiisshh…

Natalie:            (laugh and rubs Minhos back head) aaawwww….
                        I am sorry Minho…
                        but you need to be strong for your kids, you know…
                        don’t forget that…

Minho:             (gasps and with a sudden mood change
                        – speaks in a firm voice)
                        Yeah… I will…

                        (looks at Natalie’s belly and tenderly rubs it)
                        Sorry kids… Umma is such a whoozzyy…
                        but… excuse me…Natalie…?

Natalie:            (looks towards Minho) Yes Minho…any problem…?

Minho:             (takes a deep breath) Can you trust me
                        if I let my cousin Jonghyun and his fiancee, Yuri
                        to come and visit me or if they wish to live with me…
                        I mean… they are good trustworthy persons…
                        and very reliable…hhhmmm…
                        please… I need them…

Natalie:            If you say so… are they good with kids?
                        Ooppsss…wait

                        (takes Minho’s hand) Can we go inside the room
                        so I can lie down?

Minho:             (nods and takes Natalie’s hand) Sure…slowly…
