Chapter 150 – Confusion (2)
When I returned home, I could see Lee Ji-yeon sleeping.
Her groans and her pain have gone away, and she is breathing peacefully with her eyes closed.
She seemed to be feeling a little better, looking much more relaxed than before.
I thought deeply as I removed her hair from her face.
Now that it is certain that Baek Ga-eun is pregnant.
I didn’t know when my memories would return, but I was certain that the current situation was very serious.
A warrior and a demon king who regard human life as worse than insects and commit all kinds of evil deeds in the name of love.
Since it was something that went against God’s will, there was literally no such thing as a natural disaster.
We live in an era where, even without magic, you can infinitely extend your lifespan if you want to live.
If you are caught by a hero or a demon lord in this situation…
I was just imagining it, but the tension running through my body made me drool.
… We must stop it at all costs.
I am…, Even though the woman he loves is sick, he is an ugly man who just sits there and watches…
I will definitely achieve something this time.
After I made up her mind, I immediately put together the things I bought and left a short note for Jiyeon Lee.
After leaving her message just in case, she left the house immediately.
To go see Baek Ga-eun.
After leaving a message to Baek Ga-eun that I was going to her house, I drove her car and headed towards her house.
I forgot to turn on the radio and picked up speed, so I could get there quickly.
On the way up by elevator.
…
Contrary to my firm resolve, I was a little confused as I had all sorts of thoughts.
Baek Ga-eun’s house has already arrived.
The moment I dialed the familiar password and slightly opened the door, a sweet scent wafted out from inside the house and hit me.
I felt like my heart would gently melt as the deep scent drifted to the tip of my nose.
And…, I opened the door wide…, She was standing on her front door.
“… “You came.”
As if it was waiting for me.
*
I was greeted by Baek Ga-eun and entered her house.
Today, I wanted to talk face to face, so I sat down at the table instead of the sofa.
Baek Ga-eun and I sat facing each other at a spacious table.
There was a strangely heavy atmosphere in the house.
…
We sat quietly for a few minutes, looking at each other.
Neither she nor I were willing to bring up the story.
I wanted to tell him to buy medicine and take it right away, but since it wasn’t a light story, I couldn’t say it easily.
Baek Ga-eun seemed nervous as well, putting her hand on the table and stroking her fingers while looking at me.
An uncomfortable time passed, and eventually, I was the first to open my mouth.
“… Hey, Ga-eun.”
At the words I spoke, Baek Ga-eun, who had her head down, raised her head and made eye contact with her.
She is staring at me with her lips pursed.
I flinched slightly at her gaze, but with all her efforts, I held my composure and continued her words carefully.
“… “I’ll get to the point first.”
For a moment, I felt like Baek Ga-eun’s face flinched as she looked at me.
“… Let’s take medicine.”
The heavy atmosphere in her house began to disappear, and she even began to feel as if she had difficulty breathing.
Baek Ga-eun looks at me without an answer.
Seeing her gaze, I took hold of her heart once again and slowly continued speaking.
“… Before I am your lover, I am your manager. I have an obligation and responsibility to make you, Baek Ga-eun, the main character. Because that is my wish and my dream…”
I started to feel a little nervous about Baek Ga-eun’s reaction, as she gave her a blank look, as if telling me to continue.
“… When you first started filming…, I was really surprised. “I’ve never seen an actor better than Jiyeon Lee in my life.”
I wonder if my conscience has not yet been fully eroded, and I felt a little disgusted at myself for trying to persuade Baek Ga-eun by holding her dream hostage.
“You have talent. More than anyone else. … So, I hope this doesn’t hold her back. “This incident was entirely my mistake, and you are just the victim.”
At that time, Baek Ga-eun slightly avoided her gaze and spoke softly.
“… “Oppa.”
She lowered her hand and placed her hand on her lower abdomen, then slowly turned her head and looked at me.
The moment our eyes met…
… Sigh.
For some reason, I felt a little hostility from Baek Ga-eun.
“… “Oppa, is this a mistake?”
The words she spoke softly rang in my ears.
Mistake.
Yes. This time…, The new life that was created in Baek Ga-eun’s stomach was just a mistake to me.
That’s why I tried to correct the mistake.
She said she put a lot of thought into her words, but she chose the wrong words.
She hurriedly tried to add her words, but…
“… Ga-eun, that’s not it…”
“… If not now, what is it? This is a child born out of love between my brother and I, so why are you trying to blame me for my own mistakes? Oppa, do you think I’m funny?”
Baek Ga-eun’s harsh actions left her speechless.
“Oppa, what’s in my stomach is you and my child. It’s not a mistake, it’s not a mistake… “This is a child who must be raised with love.”
Child.
Baek Ga-eun and me…, Child.
The moment I heard her words. I felt a small headache.
“… Someday, I also want to stand in front of the camera as the main character with my brother. So I did everything my brother told me to do… Mistake… ?”
Baek Ga-eun gently removed her hand from her stomach and said, covering her face.
“… My brother has Jiyeon Lee. Is this it?”
I was taken aback by her sudden mention of Jiyeon Lee.
“… Go, Ga-eun…, That…”
“Anyway, I’m a well-off mistress, so I shouldn’t have children.”
“… You know it’s not, please…”
At that time, Baek Ga-eun suddenly stood up and came closer to me.
She grabbed my hand and put it on her lower abdomen and said quietly.
“… What’s in here? Say it again.”
For some reason, beyond Baek Ga-eun’s pale stomach, a pounding sensation wrapped around her fingertips.
Even though it clearly couldn’t have been that way, it felt like a small movement of the fetus.
Every time my heart pounded, it felt like my heart, which was stuck in reality, was being shaken off.
…
I placed my hand on her stomach and slowly raised her head and made eye contact with her.
She was angry, but her eyes were moist, as if she was hurt internally.
Feeling a great sense of guilt at seeing her like that, she spoke softly in a trembling voice.
“… “Us, baby.”
She gently lifted her hand, placed it gently on top of my hand, and whispered softly.
“… “Love.”
I spoke softly again as Baek Ga-eun looked at me as if asking me to add to her words.
“… “My beloved baby.”
Only then did she show a small smile.
So, after the heated atmosphere caused by my mistake calmed down slightly, we moved to her bed.
While we were talking about this and that, Baek Ga-eun, who was in her arms, wriggled and adjusted her posture, then looked up at me and said.
“… I looked into it…, I think I need to get it separately from Baekil Pharmaceutical.”
… As for Baekil Pharmaceutical…
She seemed to sense my concern and added something.
“… “My family doesn’t know.”
… Phew.
According to Baek Ga-eun, the medicine will definitely arrive this weekend.
… Today is Monday, so it will be soon.
While I was shaking her head, Baek Ga-eun was showing off her cuteness by rubbing her face against my chest.
…
Whenever Baek Ga-eun pushed me hard and showed off her cuteness, her mind was disturbed.
She moved away and was having a conversation of reconciliation. This was confirmed once again. In fact, she had a strong will to give birth, but she had no choice but to choose for her own dreams and her own.
Immediately after her pregnancy, she even looked into baby care products, so I could see how much she valued her child.
In that situation, I, her father, ended up treating her child as a burden…, She couldn’t imagine how hurt she must have been.
Aside from that, she said that I needed to take the medicine as soon as possible, but she said that she would have to wait a week, so she started to feel upset.
She said the medicine would arrive at the weekend, so the time was a bit vague and I thought it would be delayed by a few days.
… I need to eat it as soon as possible…
Considering all this, it is necessary to rest well on the day of administration.
Baek Ga-eun has a small role, and she has a huge stake in this work, so it would be okay for her to change her schedule a little.
I brought up the topic of when would be a good time to administer the medication to her…
“… Then, Monday would be good.”
… Huh?
She was taken aback by Baek Ga-eun’s behavior of easily deciding the date.
I spoke to her as if nothing had happened, hiding my embarrassment.
“… Ga-eun, Monday is a bit weird, how about next Wednesday?”
Baek Ga-eun, who was lying on my back, slowly raised her head, looked at me intently, and said.
“… “Is it Wednesday?”
“… No, there is filming on Monday…, Since Thursday is a holiday…”
“I like Mondays.”
Baek Ga-eun flatly rejected my offer and began to persuade me.
“… “Oppa, I think the more days I spend with my child, the more difficult it will be.”
It was something I couldn’t refute.
… We’re in big trouble.
For Baek Ga-eun, next Monday will be the best day.
The medicine is arriving this weekend, so it would be best to take it as soon as possible and soothe your mind as soon as possible.
On that day, it is my duty to spend time with Baek Ga-eun and comfort her.
But…, This weekend is the day Hyeon Hayeon wraps up her current activities.
Even the next day was the promised day Hyeon Hayeon had been looking forward to.
It was bittersweet not to stay by Baek Ga-eun’s side even though she was spending time with Hyeon Ha-yeon.
… What should I do?
I was forced to make a choice again.
