Kaylee:
She was staring at my face with intensity.
When she finally came out of her shock, she clenched her jaw.
“Think before you speak, Kaylee. What are you saying?” she snapped at me.
Her veins were visible. She straightened her spine as if she were ready to defend herself against me.
“What did I even say?” I replied calmly. “I am only cautioning you. You struggled so much to get pregnant. In such conditions, if there is an abortion, sometimes women cannot conceive again.”
I pouted as I said it.
The color began to drain from her face.
“The way you fell that day scared me,” I continued, keeping my voice soft with sympathy. “I am worried for you.”
After every sentence, I studied her face.
She looked as if she might burst into tears.
“Penny, please do not take my advice the wrong way,” I went on. “You know your condition. Medicines do not work on you properly. Think about it. What if you go into labor and there are complications? There usually are. Then what will happen?”
I widened my eyes and covered my mouth with my fingers as if I were shocked.
“Oh no, I do not even want to think about it. Poor you. I hope all your babies remain safe. I hope there is no abortion. I hope you stay healthy. I hope you do not lose the chance to become a mother again.”
As I repeated those words, Penny suddenly covered her ears.
“Enough,” she cried. “I came here to make amends, and you are scaring me.”
Her voice trembled.
One of her tears fell to the floor. She looked as though she wanted to break down and cry because of what I had said.
“I was only speaking casually,” I called after her.
But she walked out of my room.
“Walk carefully. Do not move too fast, or you might fall again,” I called out.
Then I covered my mouth and started laughing.
My happiness faded when I remembered Madeline.
She had too much control over my husband.
After the babies were born, everything would change.
Of course, Graham would forget her.
This was only temporary. He only wanted to enjoy himself with her.
But I wanted Madeline to feel the same pain I was feeling.
This was wrong.
I was carrying his child. This was supposed to be my special time.
And Madeline had taken it for herself.
My father’s house was only a few steps away.
Still, I did not go alone.
The confidence in his tone unsettled me for a moment.
He chuckled to himself and looked up at the sky.
There was a mocking grin on his face, as if he were challenging the moon goddess.
“Take care of yourself. I do not want to argue about this again. Do you hear me, Kaylee? I am eagerly waiting for my children. I want them healthy. I do not want children from a stressed mother,” he said firmly.
He stepped aside when his father came out to speak with me.
“Take care of yourself, all right? Do not overthink,” his father advised, repeating the same thing his son had said.
I did not want to argue at that moment.
I nodded and began walking toward my father’s house.
Graham walked beside me the entire way.
Throughout the walk, he kept saying strange things.
He would look at the sky and said, “It might rain.”
Then he would add, “I do not know if it should or not. I have not decided yet.”
It began to feel unsettling.
At times, I wanted to remind him that he was not a weather forecaster who could t what would happen.ll
But I chose silence.
I did not want to create another issue with him right now.
