Daniel was hugging Crystal like he missed her so much. Crystal was looking uncomfortable, shocked obviously. Nick wasn't shocked at all. He was anxious about Rayan's temperature. He wasn't reacting at all, looking calm. It's unusual.
Rayan inhaled a deep breath and put his clenched hands inside his pockets. As Crystal glanced at him with a sorry look, Rayan blinked his eyes, assuring her with a it's okay look.
Daniel pulled away from her and turned to Alex. "What's up, dude?" Then he smiled at Lily and squatted down in front of Anne. "Hi, beautiful."
Anne grinned. "Hi, uncle. I'm Anne. You're Daniel uncle, right?"
Daniel nodded. "But do I look like an uncle to you?" He pretended to look sad.
Rayan forced himself to laugh. "Daniel."
"Yeah."
"You'll be okay with Alex and Nick in the same room? Or..."
"I'll be more than okay." Daniel cut his words off.
Dear diary, How long has it been? 13 years? No, to be exact it's 13 years 6 months and 4 days. I remember the first day we met in the canteen. A coincidence encounter brought us together and changed our life. We talked, we laughed, we fought. No, it was never a fight. I yelled at him. Because he never fights back. Whenever I get mad, he just smiles. Everything was going perfect between us. But one day a simple misunderstanding broke us apart. We cried. We suffered. And fate binds us together again. With our Unexpected Love: Anne. Everything just felt like yesterday. The day he was shot by the gun and was in the OT's bed in front of me. The day I was asking one day from him as my birthday present and he was ready to give me forever. The day when I decided to throw myself into his embrace again. The day when I let him slip the ring around my finger. That was the day when our happy love story be
Five years later.... (Trevi Fountain, Rome)"Aysha, don't run fast. Wait for me." Anne shouted from behind as she chasing her little sister.Little Aysha looked at her sister and smiled sweetly. "Anne, water." She pointed her tiny finger to the beautiful water fountain.Anne grasped her tiny hand and kneeled in front of her. "Yes. This is the Trevi fountain. Dad said most of the tourists will definitely come here to toss a coin."Aysha looked at her curiously. "Toss a coin?"Anne nodded. "According to the legend of Rome’s most famous fountain, the main reason for tossing coins into the Trevi is based on local lore that states doing so will bring you back to Rome again, someday."Aysha's eyes started shining, she looked back at her mother and father. "Mom, let's toss coins. I want to come back here again."Crystal smiled as she took out some coins from her purs
Six months later....Rayan was hugging Anne in his arm with Crystal snuggled close to him in a comfy swing at the balcony."When will the vacation end? I miss school so much." Anne pouted her lips sadly.Rayan looked down at his daughter with his gaze narrowed. "You miss school or you miss Kyungsoo?" He asked with a sour tone.Crystal laughed and hit his arm softly. "Stop being ridiculous.""But dad is right. I miss Kyungsoo." Anne smiled cheekily.Rayan let out a heavy sigh before he smiled. "You already like him so much?" He asked, looking at his daughter.Anne nodded and looked at his father. "I secretly called him with your phone yesterday. He was worried about me and gave me all the notes for the exam."Rayan scoffed with disbelief before he turned to Crystal. "That boy is really good at courting girls. He better be loyal and good to my girl or
Three months later...."Somin." Crystal gave her a smile when she entered her room. Her eyes dropped at her big stomach. "The baby is healthy?"Somin nodded and sat beside her on the bed. "Mom and baby both are healthy. What about you? Daniel said you have a fever."A deep sigh escaped Crystal's lips. "Even he knows that? Ah, Rayan! I'm totally fine, it's just because of the weather. And my husband is worried to death. He is really an annoying husband."Somin laughed. "He loves you a lot." She paused and put her hand on her hand. "He should. Who'll not love a woman like you? 8 years ago you fought with everything just to save his baby. I understand now because I'm pregnant. I wonder how did you survive alone."Crystal's lips curved with a soft smile. "Your husband has changed you a lot. I think you're in love with him already?"Somin nodded. "I'm." She then averted her gaze from her
1 month later in Hokkaido...."Ahh. Dad..." Anne screamed when her father threw a big piece of snowball towards her. She tried to stand up but the surface was so slippery and she fell on the snow again.Rayan laughed at her daughter's clumsiness as he ran towards her and held her hand to help her out. Instead of getting up, Anne pulled him down and Rayan fell on the snow beside her."You..." Rayan scowled. Anne giggled as she picked up a snowball and threw it to her father. Rayan quickly jerked to the side and avoided the snowball. He sat and pulled Anne into his arms and kept tickling her. Anne couldn't help but started laughing. "Dad. Haha. No. stop. Haha." Seeing her laughter, Rayan laughed.Crystal who was standing in front of the cottage porch laughed at them. "You kids better be careful, don't hurt yourself." She reminded them."Mom, come here and play with us." Anne shouted with a wide smile
When Crystal opened her eyes, she was already in the hospital bed. Rayan was sitting beside her. He looked so anxious still now. Her head wasn't spinning anymore. But she was feeling weak.Crystal pulled herself up in a sitting position and looked at Rayan. "Are you okay?" She asked Rayan with a soft voice. He didn't look good.Rayan didn't answer her, he cupped her face. "Are you okay? What happened to you?" He asked worriedly.Crystal averted her gaze from him to Yejin who was now standing beside the door. "Congratulations." She mouthed the word as her eyes met Crystal's and pulled Alex outside with her.Alex clenched his jaw when she closed her door. "What? Is she pregnant?"Yejin released his hand and nodded. "She is.""Do you think she'll be okay this time? She was so weak last time." Alex said worriedly.Yejin turned her head to him. "Are you still not over he
