Hani grabbed her mother's hand tightly, shaking her head aggressively. "Mom, I don't want to." she said on the verge of crying. Yoon-Ji had been seeing her daughter crying for two days now she could not bear it whenever she shed tears.
"Doctor, she is pretty sure about the things that happened there, I just want you to make sure that she is not pregnant." Yoon-Ji asked the doctor.
The doctor nodded and sat down on her chair again, "Implantation cannot occur this early after having the intercourse so there is actually no method to check if she is pregnant or not. You can take these ECPs. By the way, when did you have your last period." the doctor asked Hani.
"It has been sixteen days I think when I had my period." the doctor shot her eyes open when Hani told her about her last period. "I am very sorry to say this but there is a very little chance that this contraceptive will actually work, you might have already ovulated the day when you had the intercourse." the doctor said troubled.
"Are you trying to say that she has chances of getting pregnant?" Yoon-Ji asked in a panic.
"Yes, Mrs. Oh I am afraid, she really has higher chances of getting pregnant. But there is still medical non-surgical abortion we can use, it is for the fertilized zygote." the doctor suggested.
"Are you trying to say that it will kill a soul inside me, if I am pregnant?" Hani asked in worry.
"Well, if fertilization has happened then it is just a two or four celled zygote, it is not even attached to you. It takes a minimum of six days to actually get pregnant." the doctor tried to make her understand the situation.
"No matter what if it is two, four or even one-celled, I cannot kill a life and you are a doctor how can you recommend such a thing." Hani protested.
"Hani it is for your own good." Yoon-Ji said trying to calm down her daughter.
"No mom, I will only take this contraceptive and nothing else. I am already ashamed of myself; I do not want to put the crown of a murderer on my head." Hani said shaking her head in horror, whispering enough for only her mother to hear.

Ji-Hoon and Dong-Hoon's arrival was getting nearer and nearer and Jung-Nan was on cloud nine and Min-Hoon could not feel any prouder.
He always knew that Dong-Hoon can do better than he was back then but he lacked interest. But now knowing that he worked for the biggest hotel in the USA, he was sure that Dong-Hoon would be the best choice for the hotel and restaurant business.
And Ji-Hoon had always been into the business even when he was just in high school, so he was sure about handing his business firms to him. His only concern was now Tae-Hoon, that child would not even listen to him and neither take any interest in the industry.
Tae-Hoon just wanted to be a free bird lingering in the sky without any boundaries and in just three days Ji-Hoon and Dong-Hoon would be at the Shim Mansion back again.
"Se Young, can I ask you a favor." Jung-Nan said hesitantly to the girl working in the kitchen making dinner for everyone.
"Oh, my dear aunt you do not need to ask such things. Just say it and that will happen the next instant itself." Se-Young said flashing a bright smile.
"You are such a sweet child but you have gotten cheesy with Tae-Hoon's influence." Jung-Nan snicked along with her. "Can you take a day off and make Kimbap, Lobster, and Gochujang Samgyeopsal for Ji-Hoon and Dong-Hoon the day after tomorrow. I would have made them myself but I want it to be special and the food made by you is the best thing for my foodie Dong-Hoon." she said with her pleading eyes.
"No worries, you said that now think of it as done." Se-Young said winking at her. Jung-Nan smiled patting her head lovingly as she also smiled back at her.

Hani just came back from her Designing class looking all tired as she went to the kitchen looking for something in the fridge not bothering anyone, she saw sushi there. "Well, at least you can make my day." she said grabbing the box and smelled it but she felt very nauseated because of the smell and ran to the sink hurriedly as she vomited her guts out. She cleaned her face and rinsed her mouth with water, getting dizzier and dizzier.
She went to the chair while struggling with her dizziness and sat down, closing her eyes for a moment. A maid who came to the kitchen saw her in this position, "Young Ms. Oh, are you feeling ill, should I concern with your mother and call a doctor for you." the maid asked politely.
"Ahhh, no need to trouble mom, I will just go to my room and have some rest." she said and the maid bowed at her but when she was about to stand up bur, she stumbled and landed on the chair again.
"Young Ms. Oh you are certainly not right, let me call you a doctor." the maid insisted.
"No... please no, just help me to get to my room and please do not tell my mother about it. She gets worried for no reason." Hani said and stood up with the maid's help, and went to her room.
Since the day of Min's party, Hani could not be her usual self anymore. She had a giggly and happy personality but after that day she thought that she just does not deserve to be happy.
Her mother had been worried sick about her since then, she wanted to confront those cousins of Hani but could not because Hani pleaded saying that 'Father will get to know about it.’
But to Hani's luck, her mother saw her as she was coming from upstairs. "Oh my goodness, what happened Hani. You are..." Hani cut her off.
