“Why didn’t you come back when Jongin told you that I was pregnant?!” Hana was still upset. This strawberry ice cream, with real strawberries or not, was definitely not helping her feel any better.  “And...and, how do even explain her?! Why didn't you tell me? Everyone else knew except me? Even Baekhyun! I would have given up everything for you. This is exactly why we didn't work out!”

He had just dropped Hyesoo off with Mrs. Choi because whether he wanted it or not he needed a day alone with Hana. Sehun wasn’t lying when he said he would skip out on work for her and he certainly wasn't kidding about the strawberry ice cream.

“I really didn’t know you were pregnant until it was too late. I know to say sorry won’t do any good, but I’m not even sure what to do to make things better between us. I heard news about you and my brother getting married, so I thought you would be fine,” he held her hands in his lap so she would face him.

“Fine! Do I look fine?! I would have jumped off that alter if you showed up, you jerk! You make me feel like a laughing stock. How could a secret so big be kept so well between all you guys?” She struggled to free her hands. Any kind of excuse he was trying to come up with, she definitely wasn't going to buy it. “I hate you! I hate you so much it hurts.” Her free hands began to hit his chest. She hit him over and over again as if each strike would undo the tightening sorrow deep within her own chest.

He struggled to catch her flying fists, but once he caught them, he pulled her close. She tried to push him off, but it was of no use because everything somehow became exhausting. Her body eventually gave up and she found herself muffling her cries into his chest.

No matter how much Sehun wanted for things to be the same, people change and feelings fade. Hana surely would not jump off that alter for Sehun today. She was still waiting for her husband. If he wanted a divorce, wouldn't he be looking for her? After all, it takes two to divorce.

She sat on the bench as Hyesoo ran around with the other children. The weather was indecisive about its temperature. One day the sun would be out and another it looked as if it would snow. She rubbed the growing bump as the cold nipped the tip of her nose. If her first baby was still alive, it would have been the same age as Hyesoo. She smiled happily at the thought of her growing baby as she did some more thinking. Should she tell Baekhyun she was pregnant when she sees him next? She watched people get off the bus from across the park. “Tell him, don't tell him, tell him, don't tell him.” She repeated the words as each person exited the bus.  She sighed at the words don't tell him. Did it even matter anymore? She was clearly pregnant, three months to be exact. She watched the last stray person get off the bus.”Tell him,” she whispered to herself. And, somehow those words relieved her.

“Mommy?” Hyesoo looked up to Hana breaking her out of her thoughts. It was a word she started using because it made her feel happy.

“Hyesoo-ah, it's unnie,” she looked down at the little girl she held hands with. She couldn't say she hated being called that because the little girl was too innocent, but it would help if Sehun didn't go along with it, an encouragement she didn't really like. Hana smiled at Hyesoo as she showed her best interest only to have Hyesoo tug on Hana’s hand as she pointed to the vendor on the side of the busy street. Hana directed her eyes to the direction her little fingers pointed. “You want some hotcakes?” she asked the little girl. She nodded as a response.

Hana couldn't say no to such an adorable being. Actually, the thought of living under the same roof as Seh
