Have my child

"Is he...is he Gael?"

Her voice trembled and she glanced at Gael who was still staring at himself. Since the day he died, he never came to this house. He was even ashamed to face his grandfather whom he left alone just like his parents.

"Yes.

After the accident, doctors declared him dead but then at the funeral, the funeral director realized he was not dead but in coma.

I hid the truth from everyone and now in everyone's eyes he is death."

"But why?"

"Because, I know it was not an accident. It was a planned murder.

I am not aware who wants him dead but now that you are here , you can help me."

The old man told her while San blinked.

"What kind of help?"

"I will tell you later. Do you want to spend some time with him? I hope, he could wake up after hearing your voice."

San realized what the man wanted her to do and she blinked bringing tears in her eyes.

"Oh honey.

I am so happy you are still alive."

She walked towards the bed and sat beisde Gael.

"I can't believe this. He is there and here. Wow.

I should include this in my next research. I can be famous."

She thought while the old man could not see her crying like this so he left.

San turned towards Gael who was staring at himself. It felt so strange seeing himself like this lying on the bed.

"Dude, you are alive."

"I can see that."

"This is amazing. Now, I should leave."

San got up while Gael did not stop her. He stood there staring at his body. Now he knew why he was still in this world. The other thing was San. Fate wanted them to meet and he met her. It could be that she was going to help her. If it was then he was not going to let her go away.

He left the room and went to find her who was standing outside a bank. She looked at the slip and dialed a number.

"Hey mom.

Yes.

I send you some money.

Yeah.

I am alright and eating well.

Do not worry about me.

How is everyone?

I will go now. I had some work to do."

She lied and cut the call while Gael came near her.

"You are lying to your mother. Why?"

He was not happy why she cut the call in a hurry.

"Why do you care?"

Gael pressed his lips together. His parents died on a car accident when he was just five so now he hated people who don't love their parents. In his words, they were the most selfish people in the world.

San left him and went to the nearby restaurant. She needed toeat well now that she had enough money.

She brought the things home and shared few with her neighbor while Gael stayed in her apartment.

When she came back, she sat down and started eating.

"Who is Henry?"

Gael questioned her who's hands stopped in midway. She glanced at him not knowing how he knew this name.

"You were crying in your sleep last night.

You care about a man but you can not care about your mother."

He had a bad impression of her making her scoff.

She put the things down.

"He was my fiance. He cheated on me a night before my wedding.

I could not talk to my mother became I am ashamed of myself.

I am ashamed that they had to suffer because of me. I left the city and I am living here miserably because I couldn't face them anymore.

Are you happy now or do you want to know more?"

San questioned him who did not say anything. She started eating.

"If he was the one who cheated then why are you running away."

"Because I live in this society that did not care about women's.

He cheated because I couldn't give him what he wanted and the other woman.... she is called a homewrecker. So in this matter there are two women who are blamed but no one is blaming him."

She chuckled.

"My uncle died and my dad adopted his children. We are ten siblings now. Our home is always in a mess. There is never silence.

But here, everything is so quite..I can sometimes hear my own heart beat. This is how quite it is here.

Do you think I am happy here? No, I miss my family. I miss eating together.

But....

I don't have the courage to go back."

Gael stared at her whose eyes turned red and tears rolled down her cheeks. He never knew she was suffering this much.

She did not blame anyone but herself.

San saw Gael getting up and leaving. She picked the spicy chicken wing and bit into it. It was first time she talked about this to anyone in her life.

After finishing the food, she came down and went to the park next to the building. There was a big oak tree that was known to be older than three hundred years.

Someone put a swing on it for the kids but San also loved it. It always give her the feeling of her house.

She sat on it and was swinging back and forward when Gael approached her. He sat down on the grass and looked her face.

"How did you die?"

San suddenly questioned him who pressed his lips together.

"I am not dead."

"Sorry. I mean...."

"I was coming from a meeting. In a second, I found myself under the wretched car. But I was alive. I wanted to get out and then I saw someone approaching to the car. He was wearing brown leather shoes and I could only see his feet before he knocked me with something.

After it, I found myself at my funeral."

Gael cut many important details as San nodded.

"We have a big swing in my house."

She changed the topic seeing his gloomy face.

"There is always fight who will sit on the swing. I have such a big family. The oldest is my dad who is 57 years old and you get is my cousin who is seven years old."

Gael smiled.

He always wished he had a big family but he only had his grandfather.

The next day, Gael's grandfather visited her to her little apartment. Seeing the place where she was living, he frowned.

"Please sit. My house is a little messy."

She looked embarrassed.

"It's not a house, it's a place where even animals.... let's leave this topic."

The old man replied making her even more embarrassed. But she loved this place.

"I heard that you a physical therapist. Hm, that's good. You can help Gael too."

San blinked. Was the old man this much stingy that he could not pay her but wanted her to take care of Gael in free.

"I can give you a job in the hospital."

"Really?

I mean.... that's great."

She chuckled nervously.

"I want your help. But it's more like you are only getting benefits in the end.

I want you to carry Gael's child."

San choked on her saliva while Gael also looked stunned.

"After Gael, I do not have anyone that can carry my legacy. Also, I do not want to die alone. I want someone to be there with Gael if he ever wakes up.

You said, you were planning kids.

You can still do it."

San blinked.

The old man was either crazy or a big pervert.

"But...how...it..."

"You can think about it and inform me about your decision. After it, you can marry Gael and be his official wife."

The old man got up and after he left, San nearly fell on the bed.

"What I got myself into?"

She cried while Gael looked at her. He did not want her to be a person with whom he was going to spend his life.

"Call my grandfather and tell him you won't do it." He warned her who turned her head towards him.

"Do not worry, I won't."

Gael stared at her in disbelief.

"Even if he paid you a lot of money."

"Money is not that important.

Ew....I am not going to do THAT with you."

She calmly replied.

"Why? What's wrong with me?" He became offended over her words but San did not reply and closed her eyes.

Gael went out of the room and thought about the situation. He was stuck and only San could help him in this situation. Also, what will happen when he woke up. What if it took years? He needed someone to take care of him while he was in coma and who was better than San.

Now after thinking about it, he could only find it beneficial for him. There must be a reason why only San could see him when they never met before.

He went back to the room after few hours while San was not there. He was standing there when the door of the bathroom opened revealing San who just took a shower.

He blinked slowly seeing her half naked while San also froze at her place.

The towel dropped revealing what was hidden and Gael's eyes went wide.

San was quick enough to grab the towel and ran back to the bathroom where she started yelling at him while Gael gulped.

"I am leaving, you can change now."

He left while San scoffed angrily as she came out and changed. Now she can't even walk freely in her own apartment.

Later, Gael came back who was cooking the food. She did not pay attention to him who still could not forget about the situation he was in earlier. It was the first time he saw a woman naked.

"You can have my child."

He told her who blinked. He changed his mind after seeing her naked. How pervert?

"And once I woke up, we can have divorce."

He added making San look at him rather annoyed. If he was not a spirit, she would have killed him by her own hands.
