Chapter 250 – Buying Baby Stuff (4)
“What is this… !”
The taxi Ichie called was Noboru. At the same time she was running the taxi app, she called Noboru, and she called Noboru because she came faster than the time she could get a taxi. Seeing Seong Ha-yeon, who groaned while holding her stomach, and me with an urgent expression, Noboru quickly understood the situation, and then she sat back in the driver’s seat.
Ichie sat in her passenger seat, and I calmed her down in the back seat, holding her hand tightly to her holy wife.
“Are you okay. Hayeon Mr. Yes? You will get better soon.”
“Ah… ! Aww… ! Fuck… !”
“Good horse! I have to write nice words. I hear a baby baby…”
Her six-headed character seemed to be about to jump out of her mouth, so I reminded her of her prenatal efforts and encouraged her to use a different expression instead of her curse words. Ichie had already entered the location of the obstetrics and gynecology department in Noboru’s navigation.
Since I didn’t know when the labor pain would come, I, Ichido, and Yujeong memorized the address of the nearest obstetrician and gynecologist with a good reputation. Seong Ha-yeon found the handle on the back seat of her and touched the ceiling of her car.
Finger marks appeared on the ceiling pressed by Hunter’s power. While driving, Noboru briefly glanced at what looked like bullet marks on the roof of the car. I apologized to him in a low voice.
“Sorry. It’s a borrowed car.”
“It’s fine. Don’t worry about it.”
Noboru waved her hand at me as if it was really okay, then she stepped on her accelerator again and started running in front of her. Ichie was looking at the navigation system next to him and reciting directions, and Seong Hayeon was holding my hand tightly and stamping her feet.
“Aww… ! Ah… ! Ahhh… !”
Every time she screamed in agony, I could feel her and her hand’s strength go tight and squeeze her hand in mine. Her hands tightened up like they were about to be crushed, and for an instant I felt the cold air, so I had to massage her hands to calm them down.
The frost, which seemed to freeze my entire hand at any moment, shrank again, and water droplets formed on her fingertips and dripped onto the car seat.
“Ah… !”
“5 minutes! I’ll be there in 5 minutes!”
Ichie said that as Seong Ha-yeon let out a thick breath and lowered her head. I forced her back up again to keep her from bending over her completely and laid her back in a comfortable position in her chair. Then, he massaged her arms and legs and checked her condition.
Seong Ha-yeon was frowning at her intermittently in pain. Her normally pale complexion was much whiter than usual, and her eyes were streaked with tears. I said, wiping her tears.
“It hurts a lot?”
“…It hurts as hell.”
“…Pretty words.”
“I don’t know, prenatal education was already ruined when I jumped into the gate during the Lee Hyun-woo incident. Ah… ! I’m coming again… !”
When she screamed in pain again, Ichie and I urged Noboru with her more frightened face than Seong Hayeon. Noboru was also driving the car with a very nervous expression on his face. The city passed by at a speed that could not be seen normally, showing different colors. Seong Ha-yeon held my hand tightly and hugged me.
“Are you okay. Because it’s okay…”
I could only say that. Healing hunters have also heard that they are careful about using their abilities on pregnant women. It is said that this is because they do not know how it will affect the baby in the womb, and because of this, it is said that hunters feel very helpless when they are with their mothers.
“Ah! Aaaaa…! Ah… !”
Right now, I was facing the helplessness the Hunters felt. The Hunter who won the S rank. Even with the title of hunter, which is the most popular in Korea these days, I ended up rushing to the obstetrics and gynecologist because I couldn’t handle my wife’s pain.
So it seemed more desperate and worried. I saw a sign for an obstetrician in the distance. Noboru pulled over as close as possible and told us.
“We have arrived! Fast forward!”
I got out of the car first and opened the door to the seat next to Seong Ha-yeon. She floundered her hand towards her empty seat as soon as I was gone, then hugged and clung to me as soon as I opened the door. I carefully pulled her belly out of the way, took her in her arms, and started running toward her obstetrics and gynecology office.
The nurse who was in front of the obstetrics and gynecology department saw us and went inside in amazement. By the time we reached the entrance of the hospital, a portable cot and a doctor came out from the inside and told us.
“Let the mother lie down here.”
“Yes!”
As soon as Seong Ha-yeon lay down on the bed, I caught my breath. It was because I thought that a doctor would do something. However, the moment of relief was short-lived, and the doctor, who briefly touched Seong Ha-yeon’s hand, looked at the nurse with a serious face and hurriedly began to give orders.
“Nurse! Get your equipment ready!”
“Yes!”
What? Did something go wrong?
Both Noboru, who sighed in relief as soon as he was handed over to the doctor, and Reason, who smiled lightly saying that it was fortunate, all stiffened. I too was feeling bewildered. I just couldn’t believe that Seong Ha-yeon was in critical condition.
The doctor asked while the nurses were busy moving.
“This patient. Her hands are too cold. Have you ever been left in a cold place?”
“…Ah, that’s because it’s an awakened person. He has ice powers.”
“…Ah yes.”
The doctor suddenly took on a cheery expression and then made an X at the nurse who was carrying complicated and bloody-looking equipment. Then, after sending the nurses to the nurses, he said to me,
“Yes. I’ll proceed right away. I need to fill out the paperwork here, Nurse Kim. Please help me here.”
“Yes. If you come here, we will help you with the reception.”
I was out of my mind. Labor pains suddenly started, how did you come to the obstetrics and gynecology department right away? I took a deep breath and stood in front of the nurse. The nurse, who was tapping the keyboard while looking at the monitor, said.
“Yes. Please fill out the paperwork here. Write down the parental relationship here, here and here. Wife… Are you?”
“Yes.”
The nurse smiled at my answer and said:
“Hunters have strong bodies and come out quickly, so you don’t have to worry too much. First of all, I’m going to go into a vaginal birth after taking a blood test, taking my pulse, and doing another thorough examination, right?”
“Ah yes.”
“So please wait. I’ll tell you again when it’s natural. Take a break outside in the waiting room.”
“Ah yes. Thank you.”
I hurriedly filled out the paperwork and went back to the waiting room. In the waiting room at the hospital, there were several pale-faced men like me, and there were also women who were ashamed of the gazes around them. There was also a scene where a high school student held her parents’ hands tightly and bowed her head.
I grabbed my messy head and sat down again. In front of the waiting room, Noboru and Ichie were having a conversation, but if you listened closely you could hear everything.
“Uncle. Thank you.”
“Soo Hyun-sang. Now that we’re like family, that’s how we do it. See you next.”
“Yes. Uncle.”
Noboru looked in my direction and she waved her hand at me. I grabbed my dazed mind, ran in front of Noboru, and nodded.
“Thank you for the ride. Later, I will buy at least one meal of that rice.”
“Ah, it’s okay. Soo Hyun Sang. I’m dating Ichie. It is family.”
“Ah yes. Thank you.”
“Yes. Then see you next time.”
Saying that, Noboru held my hand and walked away. She said to me as she opened her cell phone.
“Soo Hyun-sang. Shall I call Yu-jeong unnie?”
“The gate will be in progress, so just send me a text. First… And get some rest. You seem to have aged a bit in a short time.”
“Yes. Is it so. I’m just nervous and tired.”
Ichie said that and sat down in a chair. I also took a deep breath and sat down in a chair, and a man in a suit sitting next to me said.
“…Are you here because of your wife?”
“Ah yes. That too…”
The man smiled bitterly and said:
“Yes. This is the second time.”
“You are patriotic.”
“When they got married, they said they would make a soccer team, but now that I’ve tried it, it’s something I can’t do for my wife or me. Haha.”
“We will also make a soccer team.”
Ichie interrupted the conversation between the two men and wrapped his arms around my neck. The man looked at Ichie and asked.
“Are you my sister?”
Ichie shook his head and said.
“I am your girlfriend.”
The man made a strange expression and rolled his eyes back and forth. He looked at Ichie with an expression as if he had finished his calculations and said.
“Ah, you came because of the news of your girlfriend’s pregnancy… Is it?”
“No. My other girlfriend is pregnant and having a baby today.”
The man smiled as if he was dumbfounded by the words.
“Ah, it’s not some kind of Ada bomber…”
And the man who looked at my face again suddenly turned on his phone and searched for something, then looked at my face again.
“…Ah. I see.”
The man said that and gave me a thumbs up.
What? What is this strange feeling?
