About You: Love & Sacrifice

A woojin?

Hyejin sat in a closed closet, while her manic stared blankly at the digital pregnancy test device she was holding with her shaking hands. Clearly a slow breath came out at the back of his head leaning against the marble wall, then closed his eyes to control the turbulent anger from within his chest.

Again, just one line.

It has been two months since Hyejin released contraception without Jihoon knowing. He was even very sure that Jihoon was always out there. But why he always menstruates regularly every month. Hyejin's jaw grumbled, this may have been the thirtyth test device she tried and the results were always the same.

Negatively.

After throwing the pregnancy test kit into the trash beside the sink, she came out of the bathroom and immediately found Jihoon was busy with some files on his bedroom sofa.

"Why are you in the bathroom so long?" Jihoon said without taking his eyes off the sheet of paper. "You're ready, right? Your flying time is one hour away. I purposely came to take you straight to the airport."

That sincere attention from Jihoon could ease Hyejin's anger a little. Seeing how the man loved her, Hyejin believed that Jihoon would not leave her. But on the other hand he also hesitated and worried if one day Jihoon chose to return to Younha because he did not get offspring from him.

"Why are you so busy?" Ask while polishing the face with make up. "You should have put off your office work when you decided to come here."

"I'm sorry, the important thing is that I keep you company before I leave, right?" Jihoon chuckled. "You know I'm busy, so I stole the time to meet my cute boyfriend."

Hyejin smiled, then poked her lips in doubt before finally revealing something.

"I'm pregnant."

Jihoon misses his signature when he hears Hyejin's casual talk in front of the mirror, his hand even tremors so shocked. Hyejin glanced at the tip of the eye, putting earrings on her ear.

"H-pregnant?" Jihoon asked nervously half-dead, staring at Hyejin in disbelief. "W-why can?"

"You ask why?" Hyejin turned around. "We fuck morning and night! where do you think this kid came from?" look at his eyes squealing. "From demons?"

"I mean—you're using contraception." Jihoon said doubtfully. "I also often use security to keep watch."

"Are you not happy?" Hyejin closed the powder irritated. "Why are you surprised by such an expression?"

"Honey, I—"

"I'm pregnant with your child. This is our son. You're gonna be a great dad."

Jihoon put away his work file, when he approached Hyejin at the dresser and rubbed his shoulders gently. "It's not that I'm not happy, honey. Just—I'm not ready to be a dad anymore. I need time to learn and try to be a great father as you say."

"I don't understand all your words." Hyejin turned around, staring intently at the man who was now crouching before her. "You mean, I have to abort—"

"Hey, sttt." Jihoon clasped Hyejin's hand and calmed her down. "There's no way I'm gonna ask you to drop it."

"What do you mean you're not ready?" Sentence Hyejin. "You want me dead?!"

"What are you talking about?"

"What are you talking about?!" Hyejin brushed off Jihoon's hand. "What am I supposed to do with this kid?"

Jihoon looked at Hyejin's stomach with a flat look and it was enough to make Hyejin understand that Jihoon was indeed very surprised and did not expect a child from her if she was really pregnant.

"I hate you, Mom!!"

Hyejin ran to pick up the suitcase and some of her gear furiously. He rubbed the corner of his eyes not expecting that Jihoon's answer would be as hesitant as it was, even the light was not ready. Hyejin's worries grow bigger with each passing day, she fears Jihoon will leave her alone and return to Younha. In reality, Hyejin lies about her pregnancy to see Jihoon's reaction.

However, Jihoon's actions just left him disappointed. What if she is really pregnant and gets the same reaction?

"Darling, listen to me." Jihoon tried to hold Hyejin's hand. "You misunderstood."

Hyejin dragged her suitcase to the door, while Jihoon followed while seducing. The lover's hand was repeatedly blocked, but Hyejin was not tired of brushing.

"Misunderstand what?! About your rejection of my pregnancy?"

"Hyejin, I'm sorry." Jihoon. "I'm just surprised—I mean I'm happy with the news of your pregnancy. I was so happy I couldn't say anything. You believe me, don't you?"

Hyejin's hand stopped from the doorknob of the car. And just then, Jihoon turned Hyejin's limp body and hugged her tightly. Hyejin shed tears there, still unable to understand Jihoon's ever-changing attention.

"I promise to be a good father." Jihoon stroked Hyejin's head. "I'm sorry, huh?"

Hyejin drowned her face in the chest of Jihoon's field, hugging the man tightly as if afraid of parting and losing.

"Younha, there's someone looking for you in the lobby." An employee told Younha that she seemed focused on her work. "Hey, rest up. It's lunchtime."

The woman gave the thumb symbol and then continued on towards the cafeteria. Younha let out a long sigh, glanced around him and found the cubicle of the officers had been abandoned by its occupants. It turned out that Younha was daydreaming since then until unconsciously time went so fast.

Younha stepped gontai towards the elevator while attaching the phone to the ear. "Why did you come?"

"What?" Jinan frowned from across the phone. "I'm on the force. Does anyone want to meet you? Who's she?"

"Of course."

"Don't meet a stranger."

Younha stepped out of the elevator into the lobby, and then she saw a little boy praying to her. The boy ran over to Younha later.

"Oh, it turns out Mirae and the kids." Younha continued. "Yes, I'm closed."

"alright. Huh, just surprise me."

Younha closed the connection, then smiled at Mirae who seemed cool swinging Seojun in her carriage. "What's up Mirae? Is Seojun fussy?"

"Not really." Mirae shook her head, then let Seojun switch the sling on her mother. "I want your permission."

"Izin's? What's for?"

"I want to take Yeonjun and Seojun to the playground, there's a fairytale book bazaar. Because Yeonjun really likes fairy tales so I took her." Mirae explained. "Maybe we'll be home a little late because there's fireworks tonight."

"Well, they must be very happy." Younha nodded. "Of course I allow. I'm a little jealous, 'cause you're gonna have fun without me."

"I'll send their pocket money to your account." Younha immediately turned on the phone.

"Eh, there's no need." Mirae held Younha's hand. "I spoke to Jinan this morning and he handed her the black card. Hah, that guy's getting good-looking when he's taking his money out."

Mirae laughed at her own jokes. Younha who listened only smiled before finally looking at the soft bead Mirae—ia became embarrassed because she remembered the matter three days ago when she accused Mirae and Jinan of being stupid. Seizing the children—hah, Younha definitely did not think straight back then.

"Aunt Mirae, when are we leaving?!" Yeonjun asked from the receptionist's side seat.

"I have to go now." Mirae then receives Seojun to her emongation again. Then take Yeonjun. "Welcome back to work Younha."

They walked to the front entrance. Younha followed and waited until they got in the car.

"Fair mama!!!"

Younha returned Yeonjun's hand. Then the car departed slowly, leaving Younha with a heart of relief as Mirae's sincerity warmed her heart.

"Younha-ssi."

Call a man in full office clothes who is now walking up to him. Younha turned around, slightly bowing to salute the person who was the chairman of the Production Team.

"It turns out you're here. I searched the entire management team room earlier."

Younha laughed a little. "Sorry to confuse you. But, what business did you do to look for me?"

"Look, the director of Daisy Group wants to see you."

"Daisy Group?" Younha frowned not understanding. "What business do you have, sir, until the direct director wants to meet?"

"We don't know either." Answer Mr. Seunghun. "So there was a messenger from their company carrying a file. I've put it on your desk."

Younha nodded. "Okay, thank you sir."

"There is no need to worry Younha-ssi, if meeting with the management team is usually for internal cooperation." Mr. Seunghun explained. "Then, excuse me."

"Oh, yes sir. Thanks for the info."

After the head of the production team left, Younha also stepped back while thinking about the file about what it was. Because while working in the office, only this time Younha got an offer of internal cooperation. "Daisy Group isn't Jinan's company?" Younha. "Because Jinan is focused on the police, his company is managed by a trusted friend of Jinan."

Younha paused the move, trying to recall some of Jinan's stories about his company. "Means its director—"

"Woojin?"
