The next morning, the doctor came to check up on her. He checked her pulse and it was fine. "You are doing well. So, you can be discharged today! I will prescribe some medications for you to stay healthy and safe." The doctor politely spoke to her and instructed few things to the nurse.
Ae Ra tugged at the doctor's white sleeve and asked "Doctor.. Is it really true that I am pregnant?"
"Yes, you are 2 weeks pregnant! That is why you should take good care of yourself so that you and your child will be healthy." The doctor told with a smile on his face and left the room.
Ae Ra touched her stomach and tears fell down her face. "I'm sorry. Mommy is very happy to have you... and she will take good care of you."
Then, her eyes fell on a small yellow colored sticky note on the table. She took it and read it "I know you wouldn't want to see me and I feel it is fine but please... Let us not take a divorce. I don't want our child to be divided...
From - Choi Yu Shik"
As she read it, she crumbled the note in her hand. Rage filled within her and she wanted to scream... But her stomach growled. She looked down at her stomach. "I have to eat for your sake. So, that you will grow and be healthy... Mommy loves you a lot."
She took the food tray kept on the table and started to eat one by one.
As she began eating, she saw Seo Young entering inside. "Ahh! Finally, I get to see you eat." She dragged the stool from underneath the table and sat on it. "You look good compared to yesterday." Seo Young complimented and saw her eating the food..
Ae Ra was most probably really hungry because she was eating as if she hadn't eaten for a long while. After she finished eating the food, Seo Young found a good opportunity and said "Umm.. Yu Shik... He said that he..." As she was proceeding further, Ae Ra cut her words. "We are taking a divorce soon!"
The words hit her like a gunshot. She looked at Ae Ra with her eyes completely widened. "What did you just say?"
Ae Ra handed her the note and Seo Young read it. She asked after she read the note "He doesn't wants. So, are you saying that you will still do it?"
"I have no other choice, I can't let my child obtain any habits of his..."
"But why are you saying it that way? Don't you want your child to have both a father and a mother?"
Seo Young didn't hear any reply from her. She saw her getting out of the bed and taking the clothes kept inside the drawer. "I need to change. The doctor said that I can be discharged today."
"Fine, I will go. But please think about your decision once more. It shouldn't happen that later after everything is done, you end up regretting it." Seo Young walked towards the exit and opened the door.
"I will never regret my decision!" Ae Ra screamed as she heard her. She was getting fed up of all this. Everyone wanted her to go back... even her heart was saying the same thing. But her mind was the only one which was against it!
Since, she had made a promise, she wanted to fulfill it...
But seems like it was gonna be hard for her...

"Stop the car at the Cemetery." Ae Ra ordered as she sat in the back seat of the car.
"Cemetery? Why do you wanna go there, Ae Ra?" Seo Young asked surprised.
"I want to see my Dad.." Ae Ra answered slowly and looked out of the window. From the window, she saw a familiar silhouette hiding at the hospital entrance.
As Seo Young started the car, Ae Ra said "Tell 'him' to come too... I don't want him stalking!" She pressurized more on the word 'Him'. When her eyes landed at the hospital entrance, she immediately understood who that person was. So, she told Seo Young to invite him over.
"Okay." Seo Young said and got out of the car.
From the window, Ae Ra saw Seo Young approaching Yu Shik. Her eyes fell on Yu Shik and it made her upset. She didn't know what she was doing. She wondered if divorcing him was a right idea because even for a second she wasn't able to stay away from him. She didn't know how she managed to stay away from him for these two days.
What Seo Young told ran again and again in her mind. 'I think I should think once more..' She said to herself.
Ae Ra tightly held her pant. Her hands started to sweat as she saw him opening the back seat and sitting beside her.
"So, to the cemetery?" Seo Young asked once again as she sat in the driver's seat.
"Yeah!" Ae Ra gave a nod and turned her head to her right to look out of the window. She laughed at herself as to why she even made Yu Shik sit inside the car when she wasn't even going to talk to him.
An hour later, the car stopped at a lonely dark place.
Ae Ra opened the door and got out of the car. As Seo Young also opened the door to follow her, Ae Ra stopped her "Wait here! I will go by myself and come." She said and walked away.
