Way Back To You
An abortion? No Will!

Liam gasped in shock as he heard a groan-like sound accompanied by a cry that turned out to be coming from Hanna's mouth. He glanced at Hanna's clock, three in the morning.

“Han, are you okay?”

Liam got on the bed, sat leaning against his body while checking on Hanna's state of desire. Liam put his palm on Hanna's forehead, not a fever. Mercifully. He's probably having a nightmare.

“I told you I don't want an abortion, don't force me..”.

Liam grabs Hanna's hand which is like pushing someone he believes is himself who is present in Hanna's dream. Hanna was rummaging in her sleep, it seemed like she was really very frustrated and Liam's heart was completely sliced at Hanna's condition. He regretted making Hanna's life difficult.

“Hanna, we will not abort this child. This is our baby, we're gonna raise him together. I promise.” Liam's whisper in Hanna's ear.

After that Hanna was still fumbling a few more words, yet she said it not so clearly. Liam threw himself down beside Hanna, raising Hanna's head slowly as he extended his left hand, after which he put Hanna's head back on. In Liam's arms, Hanna fell back to sleep very soundly. Liam kissed Hanna's head many times and wrapped his arms tightly around Hanna.

Hanna, I will take full responsibility for this baby and for you. I pledge.

Hanna awakens when she hears a male voice that feels foreign to her. He opened his eyes, rubbed them slowly and found a tall man in a white coat standing next to his bed holding a brown leather bag. Around his neck hung a Littmann-branded stethoscope and he was talking to Liam. Not far from him stood a woman younger than him, perhaps the male assistant.

Hanna gathered her consciousness, trying to use her brain to digest what was going on. Jesus, baby. What are they talking about? Do they want to do...abortion..? No. gabe...Don'tdon't...My babies.

With her collected reflexes, Hanna immediately woke up and inched backwards shifting her body with fear until she was unconscious already at the side of the bed. Liam quickly jumped up, pulling Hanna's hand until Hanna's body hung with her legs still on the bed.

“Liam, let me go. I don't want an abortion. Please.leave me. I promise I won't bother you and I'll keep quiet about the baby's father. I won't tell any media or reporters. I promise, so please leave me. Don't..don't abort it, I beg.” Hanna's tears poured like raindrops.

Liam's forehead shriveled, not understanding why Hanna had said all of a sudden.

“Hanna, i..”.

“When I heard his heartbeat for the first time, my heart was so happy. So I really wanted this baby. I've fallen in love with this boy, Liam, please please. You can make a letter of agreement if you don't trust me..”.

“Stop.” Sela Liam's. He pulled Hanna's body and sat her down.

“You're talking nonsense. Who will abort our baby? I won't do it.” Liam.

“I called Doctor Fritz here because I want him to check on you and our baby. I'm worried because last night you threw up badly and just thinking about it made me feel nauseous. I'm worried about you, that's why I asked him to come to your house.”

Hanna stared into Liam's eyeball. The two hands Liam had placed on both sides of his face were so warm and reassuring.

“You have to trust me. When I say I'm responsible, I will. Don't worry.”

A gentle kiss that landed on Hanna's forehead restored her senses in full. He looked at Liam, then Doctor Fritz who was also smiling kindly.

“Ka...you will not abort this child?”

Liam took a deep breath because he couldn't blame Hanna for all those thoughts. She, who used to scream in Hanna's face, asked her to find an illegal clinic so she could abort the baby in Hanna's womb. So, it was only natural that Hanna was hysterically seeing Doctor Fritz suddenly inside her room.

“I'm worried about your condition because you vomited more than three times in one night, not to mention in your sleep you're anxious. I can not take you to the hospital.” because if anyone recognizes me, then all this will be discovered and it is not impossible that you will also be affected.

“. So I decided to call the doctor home so he could check on you. So, you have to get rid of those thoughts about abortion all the way, because I won't.”

Hanna believes it, of course. Liam's face, the look in his eyes, all showed solemnity. That's why when Liam clasped his hand and led her back to retreat, Hanna simply complied. Immediately Fritz's doctor took his tools out of the bag while the woman standing behind him wrapped her arms to measure her tension.

Her assistant helps Hanna raise her clothes, and Liam is again stunned, this time because Hanna's stomach is beginning to bubble up a bit but the difference is still subtle. It was just that that night that Liam noticed every detail of Hanna's body fixedly and recorded it in his memory, so that he could quickly find something different from her body.

When the transducer starts to move in Hanna's gel-treated stomach, their baby's heartbeat is heard very clearly through a portable ultrasound device. Doctor Fritz was still moving the device while staring at the USG screen, then not how long he stopped it. The assistant immediately cleaned the gel in Hanna's stomach and Liam helped her to sit up.

“Her heart rate is normal and good, no abnormalities. She's doing just fine. Your tension is a bit low, it's commonplace because you haven't had any breakfast either. Take plenty of rest, and do not forget to keep eating healthy foods and keep raw foods away during this pregnancy. I'll prescribe anti-nausea medication for you.”

After driving Dr. Fritz home, Liam sat on Hanna's couch while the woman was taking a bath to clean herself up. The ultrasound affected Liam's emotions a lot, especially when he heard his baby's heartbeat for the first time. At that moment both his eyes suddenly grieved because they held back tears. He's really moved –dan happy.

For thirty years of her life she had always been alone without any blood relatives, but right now, she had it in Hanna's body. The boy drained his blood and bound to it. Liam was completely moved and his happiness could barely be contained.

It's kind of weird how she could fall in love with her baby that fast. Hanna was also babbling about it earlier, saying that she already loved this baby. It turned out that it was true, his heart immediately melted just by hearing the sound of a beat that was even only depicted on the monitor.

Liam's chest suddenly felt squeezed, he really wanted to cry. He regretted all of his extremely painful words for Hanna just yet. Unable to hold back her tears, Liam chose to go out for a while looking for fresh morning air.
