Chapter 20 - A Little Miracle

Ever since a month ago, Han Rong was only able to call home once a week. On other days, he'll be on missions. On the third week of December, Yuqin decided to go back to her real job as a lifeguard after one month break. Sanya is still hot and humid so it's a perfect destination for tourists to come and visit the beautiful beaches and other attractions.

Yuqin made a surprise visit and everyone surrounded her. Her boss, Henry, Maya, and the people she used to work with were all surprised that she came back to work. Henry hugged Yuqin like an older brother and said, "Welcome Home." Their boss cried happy tears and also said, "Good to have you back. We missed you." Maya cried and Yuqin hugged her as well. Yuqin wanted to keep herself busy despite missing Han Rong.

Henry came to check on her and asked, "How's Han Rong doing?" Yuqin replied, "He's on a mission right now but we're officially together." She showed off her engagement ring and Henry looked so happy.

"I knew you would win him back! Congratulations, Yuqin. You've earned it." Henry patted her shoulder and all of a sudden, Yuqin became nauseous.

"Yuqin, what's the matter?" Henry looked concerned and felt her forehead, "You don't have a fever, are you feeling okay?" Yuqin nodded, "I probably ate something wrong this morning. Could you grab a water bottle for me? Thank you."

Henry came back with a water bottle and Yuqin drank half of it.

"Thank you." Yuqin thanked him and he shook his head.

"Don't force yourself if you're not feeling well. If you need me, I'll be at the booth." Henry patted her shoulder as he head to work.

Yuqin slowly got up and felt nauseous again. She stayed in the washroom for a while before going out. She took a few deep breaths and calm herself down. Maybe it's just the stress, she thought. After finishing her water, she went to work as well.

The day ended in a twinkling of an eye, Yuqin was exhausted but she still made herself some porridge and cooked a few veggie dishes. She didn't have too much appetite but she forced herself to eat. After washing dishes, she crashed on her bed and missed Han Rong's call.

Yuqin took a day off since she's been feeling under the weather. She didn't want to get up without feeling want to throw up. She stayed in bed hoping all will pass. That evening, she only managed to eat a few dishes. She slept like a log the next day and even missed her alarm.

Henry called Yuqin since she was suppose to be at work but she didn't show up. After checking the staff file, he managed to get her address.

"Yuqin, are you in there? It's Henry! Please open the door!" Yuqin opened her eyes slowly and still feeling half-asleep.

"Who is it?" She replied.

"It's Henry!"

Yuqin opened the door and Henry looked shocked. She was pale without any energy.

"Yuqin, are you sick? I'll bring you to the hospital." Yuqin tried to stay awake and nodded, "Wait for me." She whispered. After a while, Yuqin went into the car with Henry.

While in the hospital, Yuqin got her blood work done and she waited for the doctor to call her name. She dozed off for a few minutes before her number was called.

"Number 315! Number 315!" Yuqin woke up immediately and she followed the nurse. Henry stayed outside and waited.

"Zhou Yuqin. We took a look at your blood work, and did you know you are currently six weeks pregnant? " The doctor looked at her.

"P-Pregnant? I'm pregnant?" She couldn't believe it and was moved to tears.

"Are you experiencing any morning sickness or feeling emotional?" The doctor asked. Yuqin nodded, "Very emotional. My husband is on a mission in another country. I've been feeling nauseous, mostly. And fatigue and tiredness, always want to sleep."

The doctor nodded, "We need to do some tests in a week but for your condition, this prescription helps to control your nausea and it won't harm your pregnancy. But you need to try and keep your emotions under control and lessen the stress. Do you have any other family members who will be able to help you?"

"I do but I don't think I want to tell them just yet." Yuqin replied and the doctor sighed, "You need to tell them as soon as possible. It's difficult to do this alone." The doctor shook his head and went out the door. Henry waited for Yuqin and asked,

"Yuqin, did the doctor say anything?"

Yuqin nodded in happiness, "I'm 6 weeks pregnant!" Henry was speechless and shocked at the same time, "Wow, just wow! You guys did it! When are you planning to tell them?"

"Not yet. I want to wait until third month. Six weeks isn't stable. Henry, I have a favor." Yuqin hesitated but Henry didn't mind.

"Next week, I have to come back and do more tests. Are you able to accompany me? And would it be possible to live with your family for another six weeks and after it's stable, I'll move back." Henry thought about it and called his wife. While Yuqin waited, Han Rong called her phone.

Yuqin took a deep breath and answered, "Han Rong."

"I called you so many times, why didn't you answer? You made me so worried. Is everything okay?"

"I am fine. I'm at the hospital now." Yuqin smiled.

"Are you sick? Do you need me to call mom and dad? I am sorry I couldn't be there for you." Han Rong felt guilty again but Yuqin replied, "Han Rong, I'm pregnant. Six weeks."

Han Rong went silent on the other side while Yuqin asked, "Is something the matter?"

"Yuqin, I'm just crying happy tears right now. I'm going to be a father." He was emotional as well.

"Han Rong, keep this a secret from mom, Lingling and dad. I want to tell them once my pregnancy becomes more stable. And another thing, Han Rong, come back safely. Our baby and I will wait for you."
