A life long responsibility
Love Game
Eun-Mi POV
I woke up by the sound of the alarm clock. I turned it off and tried to get out of bed but Seung-Hyun pulled me back.
- Do you really need to go to class, he mumbled…
- Yes, I want too.
He hugged me tighter. We didn’t go on a honeymoon since I didn’t want to miss classes and needless to say Seung-Hyun was strongly opposed to it.
- We can still go you know…
- Seung-Hyun…
He kissed my nape.
- Fine, I’m not going to nag, he chuckled.
--
After classes I decided to go and visit my parents. I knocked before walking in, this was after all not my house anymore.
- Ms. Choi, what gives us the honor?
- Omma, stop it.
I hugged her and felt like a kid again. I walked past my room and looked in. It was empty and not my room anymore, weird. I laughed. My omma stood behind me.
- I’m an adult now, aren’t I?
- Very much so.
--
I opened the door to our apartment, it’s just been a few days since our wedding and everything had changed. I hanged off my coat and immediately got pulled in by Seung-Hyun.
- I missed you, you’re late.
He kissed my neck.
- I went to visit my parents.
- You could have said something, I got worried.
I leaned in and kissed him. Now all of a sudden i didn't have to care for just me anymore. I always had to consider Seung-Hyun's feelings and could no longer just do reckless decision. Not that I did that anyways. It could only get easier right?
--
After being married for two months everything felt more at home. I went to collage, got home and cleaned and cooked and when I didn’t have homework I hanged out with Min-Hee. Seung-Hyun was working and hadn’t been home for a few days and it really felt lonely without him. As I opened the door I realized it smelled like food. The hallways was dark but as soon as I got into the kitchen I realized Seung-Hyun was standing there next to a table with food and lit candles.
- What is this? You’re already home?
I couldn’t help but to smile.
- I’ve been trying really hard so hopefully you’ll like it. It actually tastes kinda good. I tried everything out so it should be alright.
I ran and hugged him and he my hair.
- I missed you so much…
- I missed you too, it going to work and being away for so long.
We both sat down and started to eat.
- Seung-Hyun this is really good!
- Really? He smiled like a kid.
- Thank you, for making this…
- Don’t worry.
--
I woke up feeling nauseous and swallowed hard trying to make it go away.
- Water, I mumbled.
- Did you say something, Seung-hyun was half asleep.
I tried getting up and felt how something was on its way up. I ran to the toilet and made it just in time. Seung-Hyun quickly came after.
- Oh god, are you alright? Ah I shouldn’t have cooked yesterday…
He was pacing back and forth pulling his hands through his hair. I rested my head against the toilet seat, and I felt how I was breaking out in a cold sweat.
- It’s not your fault…
- Are you alright?
- Don’t worry, I’ve been feeling kinda sick these last few days, I think I’m getting the flu or something. If it was the food then you would be sick as well right?
- I guess so…
I took a shower and went to bed again feeling exhausted.
- We should go to the doctor in case it’s something serious.
- Don’t worry, I just want to sleep.
- Can’t we go just in case? I don’t want to feel worried.
- Seung-Hyun, I really don’t want too.
- Okay. I’m just worried for you.
A few weeks later
- GAH! I sat down on the bed and started to cry.
- Honey, what’s wrong? Seung-Hyun sat down next to me my back.
- I’ve gained so much weight since we got married. I can’t even put on a single pair of my jeans. The only thing I can wear are your pants.
I sobbed into my hands feeling absolutely miserable.
- You’re not fat. You’re really beautiful.
I took a deep breath and pulled out a pair of his jeans.
- I’m stealing your clothes again, I sighed and dried my tears.
- You look better in them anyways.
I couldn't help but to smile at his effort of trying to make me feel better.
--
- I’m so hungry again… I complained to Dara.
- Then go and get more food then, she laughed at me who was staring at the cafeteria.
- I can’t. My stomach is so bloated and I’ve gained weight. These are my husbands pants. T_T
- Hm, maybe you’re intolerant to lactose? That gives you a bloated stomach, ^^
- So if I don’t eat lactose it will go away?
- Yeah, if that’s the problem then it will.
- It’s worth a try, right? ^^
- But I really don’t think you’ve gained any.
- That’s because I cover it up with baggy clothes. It’s just around the stomach area.
- Hm, weird.
--
I’ve been eating really healthy and no lactose what so ever but still I’m gaining weight. I finally had enough and decided to head to the doctor. He came back in with a few brochures in his hands. I gave him a skeptical look and was worried it would say “how to survive tumors” or something. He handed them to me.
- Parenting, a lifelong journey? I looked at him trying to grasp what was happening.
- Ms. Choi, you’re pregnant.
He gave me a warm smile and my jaw dropped.
- So you’re saying that the weight gain is a baby?
- Yes. Congratulations. You’re married and young and healthy so there shouldn’t be any problems. We need to decide on a date for a checkup and ultra sound.
- I’m pregnant…
My hand made its way up to my stomach.
Seung-Hyuns POV
I was so worried for Eun-Mi, she seemed to be going through some kinda stress. She ate more then she usually did and her mood was up and down. She finally went to a doctor and I was so nervous when I got home.
- How did it go?
- Oh, it was fine.
- Nothing wrong?
- Nah, it was fine.
I looked at her and she had her back against me and was facing the counter.
- Oh, yeah, I forgot the doctor gave me some brochures, we should both read them. It’s kinda important.
- But I thought there was nothing wrong?
- There is nothing wrong. Just look in my bag.
I sighed and opened her bags and took up the brochures.
I read it time after time trying to grasp what it was saying. I looked up and she turned around and smiled.
- I’m gonna be an appa?!
I was so excited I jumped up and down and she just nodded.
- YOU’RE PREGNANT?! I’M GONNA BE AN APPA?!
- Yes!
I ran towards her hugging her.
- Oh wait, I need to be careful.
I kissed her gently.
- We’re going to be parents.
I smiled at the thought.
- How long?
- 3½months.
- So in 5½months we’re going to have mini Seung-Hyun?!
- It’s not even sure it’s a boy, she rolled her eyes at me.
- Whatever.
I kissed her again.
- I love you.
--
I walked into the studio with my head held high and I smirked as I saw them.
- What’s wrong with you?
- Yeah, what happened?
I sat down in the couch feeling like a king.
- Oh you know. Just married life.
- You've been married for a few months and now you're starting to get arrogant?
- Did something special happen?
- Youngbae you’re catching on quickly. It happens to be so that I, Choi Seung-Hyun, are going to become a appa.
- EUN-MI’S PREGNANT?!
I nodded and they all threw themselves at me.
- Hyung, we’re so happy for you!
- How long till it can come out and play?!
- 5½months!
Needless to say, I was in a pretty good mood for the rest of the day.
