Since then, Rindi has not done anything. Her mother-in-law forbids Rindi to do anything. Even her mother-in-law is busy cooking with the housekeeper, while Rindi sits at the dining table and occasionally answers her mother-in-law's questions.
Stefano's parents are really happy to hear that their daughter-in-law is pregnant. They love Rindi more and more like their own child.
Rindi was busy looking at her mother-in-law back and forth. She suddenly remembered the words of the messenger that day. Rindi was silent and then rubbed her face gently. Her mind immediately filled with Stefano again.
"Calm down, Rin! Don't stress yourself out, remember your stress interferes with Baby Yoon's development," Rindi thought in a monologue reminding herself.
Rindi took a few breaths to regulate her nervous feelings. Rindi rubbed her stomach slowly which hurt a little. Rindi then stood up and approached her mother-in-law.
"Eommonim, is there any warm water?" Rindi asked quietly while holding her mother-in-law's arm slowly.
Stefano's mother was a little surprised, the middle-aged woman stopped her cooking activities and held Rindi's arms gently.
"Why honey? Is your stomach cramping again?" Ask Rindi's mother-in-law.
Rindi gasped how could Mrs. Stefano know her complaint this time. Rindi tried to smile then shook her head slowly.
"I'm okay, Eommonim. I just need warm water," Rindi said later.
There was a sigh of relief from Rindi's mother-in-law. Her hand then stroked Rindi's head gently.
"If you feel sick and something like that, don't hold it in, tell Eomma or Chan right away. Warm water is in the dispenser."
Stefano's mother reminded Rindi and then pointed at the dispenser near the refrigerator at Rindi. Rindi's head nodded in agreement with his father-in-law's words and then went to get warm water.

It was early in the morning but Rindi couldn't even close her eyes for a second. The alarm on his cell phone even sounded like a sign that he had to do the dawn prayer. Rindi glanced at Stefano who was sleeping beside her. His hand then gently caressed Stefano's arm.
"Chan, wake up already dawn," said Rindi slowly.
Without having to bother Stefano immediately wriggled slowly and opened his eyes then. Stefano smiled as he looked at Rindi.
"Good morning, dear," Stefano said, holding Rindi's cheek gently.
Rindi smiled and said good morning too. Stefano then pinched Rindi's cheek gently with annoyance.
"Your cheeks are getting cuter by the day," Stefano said, who then received a small smack on his arm from Rindi.
"You are just making it up, let's wake up! We have to pray at dawn," said Rindi.
Stefano nodded his head in agreement. The talkative man then got up and got off the bed, and Rindi followed later.
After performing the dawn service, Rindi went straight to the kitchen. Her stomach was a little hungry, while Stefano sat on the dining table chair. They both plan to eat ramyeon. Rindi was adamant that she wanted to cook it herself. In the end, Stefano complied.
Victor, who had just woken up because he was thirsty, smelled the smell of ramyeon which made him suddenly thirsty and hungry. Victor walked in following the definite smell of ramyeon from the kitchen.
"Ya! Why are you two eating ramyeon without taking me," said Victor in a sulky tone.
Stefano turned to the source of Victor's voice and then took a deep breath. While Rindi smiled while stirring ramyeon she was cooking.
"Sit there, Vic. Soon it will be ripe," said Rindi later.
Hearing Rindi's words without hesitation Victor walked quickly and sat beside Stefano now. Stefano turned to Victor and then glanced sharply.
"Take the bowl and chopsticks young master, Victor! There's no way you can eat with your bare hands that ramyeon?" Stefano said irritated.
"Ah...You're right, Hyung," said Victor who then chuckled softly.
Stefano snorted in annoyance seeing Victor's behavior which was always spoiled when there were only three of them.
Instead of eating ramyeon, Rindi was busy watching Stefano and Victor eat ramyeon voraciously. Several times Rindi smiled happily to see the two of them eating without choosing the type of food.
Victor realized that the ramyeon in Rindi's bowl was still intact. Victor sipped his ramyeon slowly then pointed at Rindi's bowl.
"Why don't you eat? Nausea?" Victor asked with his mouth full.
Stefano stopped moving his hands and then looked at Rindi's bowl as well. Stefano stopped his meal and asked Rindi the same thing. Rindi shook her head and then smiled.
"No, I'm not nauseous. It's just that my stomach is suddenly full seeing the two of you eating," said Rindi
"Hey, you are just being. The one who said you were hungry and wanted to eat ramyeon was you, Rin. How could you see the two of us eating you're full," Stefano replied.
Rindi's head nodded assuring Stefano that he was full now.
"Eat Rin! Even if it's just a little bit, it's a pity that my nephew will drool," said Victor, then chuckled to himself.
Stefano turned his head in annoyance then hit Victor's arm in annoyance.
"Don't joke around, Victor!" Stefano said later.
Rindi chuckled seeing Stefano's panicked face mixed with annoyance.

Rindi is looking at 3 men who are always nearby busy doing their work on a park bench. Rindi herself sat on the back porch which was directly facing them.
Rindi's father-in-law sat beside his daughter-in-law without Rindi knowing it beforehand.
"So when will the two of you end your contract?" Stefano's father asked suddenly.
Rindi turned around quickly while widening her eyes in surprise. How could her father-in-law know about Rindi and Stefano's marriage contract? Rindi nervously answered and then looked at her father-in-law quickly.
"Aboenim, I can explain everything. Now we are married and no longer under a contract," said Rindi, a little nervously answering.
Stefano's father was expressionless, he just looked at Rindi and then looked away again. Now Stefano's father looked at his only son.
"There's been a lot, Chan sacrificed to be with you. Even his faith now follows you. Don't let his dreams from the past be sacrificed because of you. Becoming a music producer isn't his dream that only lasted a few years, it's been ingrained since he was little. Don't you feel sorry for him having to work hard Isn't that his passion?"
Stefano's father looked sharply at Rindi. Tears Rindi was unstoppable, was it true that she had been this selfish all this time? Rindi wiped her tears slowly, Rindi stood up and grabbed her mother-in-law's hand slowly.
"Aboenim, I never had that kind of intention. Stefano stopped being a music producer too because his contract had expired, I'm sorry I wasn't honest from the start."
Rindi is still trying to persuade her father-in-law not to be angry and hate him. Stefano's father looked at Rindi then shook Rindi's hand coldly. He stood up and then walked away before really getting away from Rindi. Rindi's father-in-law turned around.
"Do your duty as a good wife! Complete your marriage contract with Stefano, then leave my son! Never come back in his life, then everything will return to normal as before," Stefano's father said coldly and then walked away.
Rindi was stunned, the girl stayed where she was and couldn't say anything now. Rindi can only hold her stomach, what about Baby Yoon? Should he be born without a father? Rindi cried without being commanded again, Rindi quickly left the back porch.
There was a knock on the door of the room Rindi shared with Stefano from outside. Rindi who did not want people to know that she was crying quickly wiped her face. Although it's puffy left there.
Rindi slowly opened the door and it was her mother-in-law who knocked. Her mother-in-law handed Rindi a small plate containing pieces of fruit.
"Eat, honey! You must be hungry by now," Stefano's mother said.
Rindi was confused, could it be that her mother-in-law didn't know? Or in fact, She already knew but kept silent. But how can a mother be silent if she knows all this when her father just said that rudely to Rindi?
Stefano's mother's hand reached out and gently stroked Rindi's cheek. Stefano's mother smiled faintly.
"Don't cry too much, it's not good for pregnant women. Understand maybe, your Appa was too surprised by what he just found out. Eomma, believe that you love each other and there is no contract between you," said Stefano's mother, finally clarifying her thoughts Miss.
Rindi nodded her head quickly with tears in her eyes. Rindi can't even say anything now. How could he face his two in-laws now?
