Kisa was feeling nervous as she waited for her first prenatal examination. Memories of her previous
pregnancy flooded her mind, but they were not pleasant. Gilbert, her partner at the time, had been
unsupportive and uncaring. She had no idea what to do, so she spent most of her time resting at home
and never bothered to go for a checkup. She did not even know if she was carrying one or two babies.
As she sat in the waiting room, Kisa watched the other pregnant women with their husbands and felt
envious. She wished Gilbert were there with her too. Finally, it was her turn for the ultrasound, and she
handed the report to the doctor. To her relief, the doctor said her baby was developing very well.
She mentioned that she occasionally experienced pain in her belly. The doctor advised her to avoid
strenuous exercise and to rest more. Kisa could not help but think of Gilbert’s crazy behavior the night
before and shuddered. She was grateful that the baby was okay.
Kisa looked carefully at the ultrasound report. The images didn’t show much, just a gestational sac. But
the size of the sac was very clear. As Kisa looked at the ultrasound report, she was so lost in thought
that she accidentally bumped into someone. The report slipped from her hand and fell to the ground.
She quickly bent over to pick it up, but a hand picked it up before she could. That person was wearing
a men’s watch on his wrist, and no matter how she looked at it, it felt familiar. She looked up and was
shocked to see Gilbert standing in front of her.
“W-What are you doing here?”
Gilbert remained silent; his eyes fixed on the ultrasound report. He struggled to make sense of the
fuzzy images and turned to Kisa and asked, his voice indifferent, “Is everything alright with our baby?”
Kisa refused to let Gilbert’s coldness get to her and flashed him a smile. “No worries,” she said. The
doctor said that everything is developing well. But… I guess I have to take it easy now, no more intense
workouts for me.”
Kisa could not help but wonder if he had any clue about what ‘intense workouts’ means. She stole a
quick glance at him. He remained unfazed, his eyes scanning the ultrasound report. After what seemed
like an eternity, he finally broke the silence and uttered, “Let’s go.”
After coming out of the hospital, Davian who was originally waiting for her had already left.
As Kisa sat in the passenger seat of Gilbert’s car, the silence between them was suffocating. And just
as she was contemplating breaking the silence, Gilbert spoke up.
“Christopher has been arrested.”
Kisa was taken aback for a moment before nodding and saying, “I know.”
“It was I who reported him,” he said, his voice almost monotone.
Kisa remained calm, and she simply nodded in response.
“I won’t drop the charges,” said the man, staring straight ahead with a flat voice. “If he can try to kill you
once, he could do it again. I don’t want my child to be in danger.”
Kisa nodded. “I understand. I don’t want you to drop the charges either.”
Gilbert seemed surprised by her response and glanced at her involuntarily. She forced a smile, one that
did not quite reach her eyes. “He’s not my father, just a blood relative.”
Gilbert tightened his grip on the steering wheel and did not say anything else.
As they pulled up to the Kooper residence, Kisa got out of the car, only to find that Gilbert was not
following suit. She bent down and looked at him in confusion. “What’s wrong?” she asked.
“I’ll be staying at the office for a while. When it’s time to go to Oceanville, I’ll come back to get you.”
Kisa’s heart sank. She knew what this meant – Gilbert did not want to be around her anymore. She just
nodded and watched his car disappear from view, and she could not help but feel a sense of sadness
and longing.
Madalyn took all of this in and sneered at the side. “My grandson finally came to his senses. Don’t think
about seducing him again. Now the only reason that he hasn’t driven you away is because of the child
in your belly.”
