. . .
Perhaps because it was the second child, or because the female lead endured the pain, the birth proceeded quickly compared to the first child.
Still, Yeoju thought it was fortunate that she was able to meet her father and mother and share fighting words with Sua before going into the delivery room.
And inside the delivery room, there was a brief moment of intense struggle between Yeo-ju and Tae-hyung. The difficult moment passed quickly, and fortunately, both the baby and the mother ended up healthy.
. . .
That evening...
Unlike her first pregnancy, Yeoju's legs were shaking and she didn't want to get out of bed. She hadn't even brought the baby home yet. Her father and mother were still there.You worked hardEven when doing that, SuaMom, it was hardEven when hugging her, the female lead did not leave the bed.
Even though she gave birth before lunch, the doctor was worried because Yeoju was not walking, and Taehyung later told Yeoju to try to walk, but she refused to walk at all.
"The doctor told me to walk quickly...
"Yeoju, are you still having a hard time...?"
Taehyung looked at Yeoju with a worried expression. Ever since the doctor left, Taehyung had been secretly nagging and urging Yeoju.
"Stop whining... I gave birth to a baby today.
I'm having a really hard time....!!"
As soon as the female lead started to get upset, Taehyung quickly felt sorry.
Taehyung thought he needed to change the mood for the struggling female lead, so he turned on some music and changed the lighting to dim, indirect lighting.
[BGM - V "Christmas tree"]
"Then get some rest... You really worked hard...
Thank you, my lady, for giving birth to our child.
Taehyung sat down on the bed and talked while covering Yeoju with a blanket. Yeoju, who had been lying down for a while, seemed to have calmed down, and then got up, whining.
"Ah... it's hard, but I'm bored...
I'm not sleepy.
You slept for a long time earlier this afternoon... "
At that moment, the music that Taehyung had released last year was playing on the Bluetooth speaker.
"Well then, ma'am, how about singing a blues with me?"
Taehyung held out his hand.
"No... out of the blue... what..."
The female lead thought that Taehyung was trying to make her walk somehow, but she didn't mind seeing him lovingly looking at her and reaching out his hand.
"Let's move slowly... huh..? Yeoju~"
At Taehyung's words, the female lead eventually got off the bed, whining.
"I don't want to walk, so I'll just stand still..
"It still hurts so much.."
"Yes, yes... Mademoiselle... haha
"Then would you like to stand still and dance with me..?"
When Taehyung reached out his hand again, this time Yeoju gently took his hand. When Yeoju's legs started to shake, Taehyung quickly gave her a brief hug.
As the female lead stood next to the bed, Taehyung began to dance the blues to the music, moving his body left and right.
The female protagonist was embraced by Taehyung's warm embrace and began to move little by little to the rhythm.
As soon as she was held in Taehyung's arms, her body odor hit her and she was finally able to recognize Taehyung, who had been trembling and guarding her position since dawn.
"Taehyung, I really like your arms..."
The female protagonist quietly wrapped her arms around Taehyung's waist.
“Come to think of it, Taehyung, you must have had a hard day today too..”
"Yeah... well... that's why I slept next to you when you were napping..."
"Oh really...?"
The female protagonist, who had been complaining about how hard it was, suddenly remembered the sight of Taehyung sleeping exhausted from fatigue.Come to think of it... you had a hard time next to me today too...
“But heroine, are you okay..? You move better than I thought...?”
Taehyung spoke to the female lead, who was already moving her feet.
"I often danced the blues since high school because of someone
My body moves automatically. Hahaha"
The heroine smiled brightly, her mood slightly lifted. She looked at Taehyung's face, and his eyes, shadowed by the dim lighting, sparkled slightly.
"What... are you crying...?"
"No... I just like it... being with you like this..."
As Yeoju gently wiped the tears from Taehyung's eyes, Taehyung kissed her gently. Taehyung spoke in a soft, low voice, as if trying to soothe Yaju.
"When we finish this song, let's bring the baby too.
"I have to take her with me from day one like Su-ah..."
"Then~ Then... I have to hug you tightly in Mom's arms..."
"Now there are four of us...
"I guess it's going to be a war for a while now raising the kids.."
"I trusted our childcare expert, Kim Tae-hyung, and had a baby...
Do you have any inkling that there will be a parenting war?
"I don't know, maybe Su-ah is smart enough to get along with her younger sibling...?"
"I can't imagine.. haha
I wonder what will happen... I guess circumstances will lead us..."
"Yeah, what's the point of worrying in advance.. Just go and see..! Right?"
"Yeah.. haha"
The female protagonist smiled and nodded at Taehyung's words.
The two of them whispered and danced the blues until the music ended.

- V "Christmas tree" lyrics -
In the last episode (#15)
Taehyung told me the reason why he fell in love with Yeoju...
It feels like this song is a response to the previous episode.
Yes...
I listen to Christmas Tree while studying,
As I listened to the lyrics
This song reminds me of a scene where two people are dancing the blues.
I couldn't help but write. Hehehehe...
It all starts with a Christmas tree...
I hope you all enjoyed this episode~💜
