“I can’t do this.”
I poured out the words that had been pent up in my heart. Unlike my empty, relieved heart, my eyes were filled with tears.
“Ms. Kim Yeo-ju.”
“Don’t call me that.. I told you not to call me that..”
“…”
This situation, which was completely different from the marriage I'd dreamed of, was quite painful and difficult. I said I couldn't do it and wiped my eyes, but he carefully took my hand and put it down.
“If you do that, your eyes will hurt.”
“What does it matter..! Ahhh…”
I was so overcome with sorrow that I was swearing, and my stomach hurt so much that I lost all strength and collapsed onto the sofa.
“Are you okay?!”
I briefly wondered how wonderful it would be if that worry were speaking to me. Then I nodded and continued.
“Now that the baby is moving, I’m going to the hospital..”
The man sitting carefully next to me continued speaking slowly.
"I'm sorry. I didn't know staying home would be so frustrating. Like this... I didn't even know... I don't even know the baby's name. I'm sorry."
“..Before the wedding, I want to send invitations to my friends and meet a lot of people.. The doctor also told me to walk a lot..”
“What is your name?”
“..“It’s a star. It’s a star.”
"star.."
Although they didn't look like a couple or lovers, they sat next to each other and talked.
We talked about school, work, and children, and how busy Jeongguk was at work.
“Can I put my hand on your stomach..?”
Even though it was something that would be funny to someone who had a child, I smiled faintly and nodded.
Jungkook raised his hand as if wrapping his big hand around the child's stomach and called out to the child.
“Star.”
The child who had been moving slightly until yesterday was not moving at all.
“Star..”
At that moment, he felt a slight movement. It was the first time Jungkook had felt a definite movement.
That was the first time I saw his smile. My heart started pounding.

“My lady.”
"yes?"
“I don’t know if this is rude, but.”
“You’re getting married because you want to, right?”
"yes..?"
“Because I want to be happy. Is that why I’m getting married?”
What should I answer?
“Of course. I“I like you a lot. You treat me well too.”
“I guess rumors are just rumors.”
“What is the rumor?”
“It’s okay. I misunderstood.”
I picked up my spoon, wiping away my startled chest.
“I hope you are happy, my lady.”
"thank you."
“If you have any difficulties or need help, please contact me anytime.”
Yes. You've always been this kind of person to me. A warm and supportive person.
“Congratulations on your wedding.”

"Your blood sugar level is too low, ma'am. It could be dangerous. You should also eat well."
"yes.."
“Have you been having a stomachache or feeling dizzy or anything like that lately?”
“I feel like I’ve been hungry lately..”
“My blood sugar is low, so even if I have severe morning sickness, I have to have my husband order me to eat something.”
"yes.."
“stress“Please don’t accept it.”
"thank you."
The alarm went off and I went to check and there were several subscription alarms...
Turns out it's number 1...
thank you..
Handshakes aren't that hard, right? We all have handsshakes.
