A month has passed.
Hyuji received his salary from aunt hong. Stretching out a palm withstanding a sense of condolence, Hyuji bowed with his big belly as a thank you.
Accompanied by Mentari who had begun to descend and was about to go back to hide among the height of the building that raced to reach the sky, Hyuji ventured to go to a shopping center in Busan. He wanted to buy some baby clothes stels with the proceeds he received from aunt Hong and also the remaining savings he had.
Waiting for the bus to arrive, Hyuji bowed in his own smile as the baby-to-be stopped moving, kicking almost the entire side of his stomach. Hyuji rubbed attentively.
Until the bus came and took him to his destination.
It was cold, maybe that was what Hyuji felt as he got off the bus. Closing the black coat wrapped around her body, Hyuji walked into the shopping mall area that looked crowded.
Once circling around and asking security, finally Hyuji until the store that specifically sells baby and children's clothing. Hyuji sorted out, even floundering and getting out of the plan that would only buy a few stels. However, now in the basket he bought a lot of baby clothes and some other equipment that he bought, because it is not strong to resist anxiety.
"Sorry Brother Ryu, I borrow your money first! I'll give it back when it's there! " he muttered while cursing while taking out the credit card Ryujin gave him when he moved to Busan.
Hyuji's mood was really happy at the moment. Carrying one big bag of baby clothes and almost reaching the exit, accidentally his shoulder collided with someone because he did not focus on the road.
"Ah, forgive me, it's my fault for not focusing on—"
"You're Hyuji, right?"
That question suddenly made Hyuji raise his eyes to know the presence that knew him. However, when the two manics managed to summarize the figure standing before him, Hyuji did not even know the person at all.
"who?" ask Hyuji politely.

Secretly, John also built a business in Busan. Not a big company like his father had, but a cafe-like business like the one he had built in Seoul and became successful.
John was really uncomfortable having to work under the pressure he was under at the moment. Nevertheless, he tried hard to keep doing it even though it felt sickening. Bringing the company pioneered by the father to increase in size, add profit to his savings and also, will leave all when the time comes later.
"How was the construction?" john asked the guy across the phone.
"Walk according to master's plan!"
"Thank God! I hope it's all done without any problems in the next three years!"
"I'll make sure all of that goes well and without any obstacles, Mr. John!"
John nodded small, sighing in relief. In New York, it was early morning and John was still in front of a computer screen in his apartment to complete some work that drained the brain.
"That's... I... "says people across—doubtful.
"Tell me!"
"No! Not so!" when John asked for an explanation. Not wanting to make trouble, he also undoes his intention to tell John if he meets a woman who is very similar to his former boss' wife, the other day. After all, she had already confirmed, and the woman said her name was not Hyuji, so she came to the conclusion if she was the one who guessed wrong.
"You need money? I'll transfer— immediately"
"No, no! That's not Mr John!" cut it quickly before John finishes his sentence.
"Yes already! Just continue your work well! I'm waiting for the results!"
"Okay Sir!"
The call ended, John looked back at the computer screen and was still struggling with his busyness. Once again, his finger halted instantly, his lips pursed forward, remembering what the assistant had been trying to say made John wonder.
What made the assistant man undo his intention to speak? John curious.
"What actually happened? Does your mother know my plan?"
John twists his tongue in his mouth, the bead circulates freely, his mind guesses until tired. But I don't expect the worst to actually happen.

PlayList Recommendation: Endless Love.
The clock pointed to the number ten in the night and she still could not close her eyes because she was too enthusiastic about various kinds of baby equipment.
"Mom can't wait for you on my lap baby!" hyuji said softly as he rubbed his large stomach.
Hyuji leaned over to grab the baby pillow pack on the floor. However, when he re-enforced his back, suddenly his stomach feels pain. Hyuji piqued, walked to reach the edge of the bed and sat down there. Still enduring the pain that came and went, Hyuji put on a smile among the pain moans he endured.
"Do you also want to see my dear mother soon?" hyuji said followed by a bite on the lower lip withstanding the pain. His head looked up with a slightly blurred bead. Hyuji's tears just fell down.
Until a few minutes passed, and had tried various tricks that were often said by the doctor who examined him, the pain was not going away.
Trained, Hyuji went down the steps and pressed aunt Hong's doorbell.
The door opened wide, revealing the figure of a middle-aged woman who was staring worriedly at the sight of Hyuji's paled face.
"Jeez, why are you Hyu?"
"I'm sorry Hyuji bothers aunt, Hyu's stomach hurts so much, and Hyu can't help it anymore!"
"Yes God! Is it time for you to give birth?"
Hyuji shook his head and endured the back pain by bending his back.
"Then wait a minute! Aunty's gonna get a jacket and some baby clothes for us to take to the hospital! Where did you put it?"
Hyuji nodded. "Just Hyu Tata in the closet! Also, please bring Hyu's wallet and cell phone!"
Without saying much, aunt Hong immediately took action. Awaken uncle Hong and immediately drive Hyuji to the nearest hospital. Hyuji's sweat poured out nonstop, and aunt Hong painstakingly paid attention and affection to Hyuji.
Until he reached the hospital and received medical attention quickly, Hyuji was taken into the delivery room.
Hyuji's gestational age is still not even nine months. However, due to fatigue, Hyuji finally gave birth faster than the Estimated Birth Day (HPL) written on the medical record.
An hour or so past the laborious and draining labor process, Hyuji finally managed to give birth to a healthy and beautiful Princess.
Hyuji's tears never stopped when the doctor placed the baby on his body that was still lying weakly on the maternity bed. The tiny, pinched baby squirms with adorable fingers. Hyuji grabbed it, kissing the fleeting fingers lovingly.
"Your daughter is so beautiful madam! Her eyes are beautiful too!" said one of the doctors who helped deliver.
Indeed, the baby she was born with was very beautiful. Her hair was jet-black and dense, nose pointed, her lips as red as blood, her skin as white as snow, and beautiful round eyes instead of playing.
"Thank you doctor." Hyuji replied in a raucous voice, and endlessly looked at his daughter who was playing the tongue. John's figure is closely attached to the features of the princess. Hyuji's heart felt sliced back, but the happiness that appeared managed to divert everything quickly.
"Have you prepared a name for that beautiful baby Madam?" a nurse asked as she reached for her daughter's foot to make a footprint on a thick piece of paper ready to scratch.
Hyuji nodded slowly. "YeNa John" he said gently as he rubbed the forehead of his daughter who was exactly the same as the father, John.
"Well, what a beautiful name!" Praise the nurse for scraping Pink ink on the thick paper a few seconds ago with the baby's footprints.
"Eummm." murmured Hyuji along with thousands of flowers blooming in his chest. "Because today is a very beautiful day!"[]
