Tae Jo, who had turned off his laptop and monitor, put on the jacket hanging on the coat hanger. He was about to leave the office with his cell phone and car keys when he felt a vibration in his hand.
[Yoon Se Kyung]Tae Jo raised an eyebrow. It was half past eight. He had received a text message a while ago saying she was eating dinner, so he wondered what was going on at this time.
Hopefully, she wasn’t sick. He pressed the call button and put the phone to his ear.
Representative…
As soon as he answered, a weak voice came from the other side. It sounded drained of energy.
For a moment, the voice of President Shim saying that care should be taken in early pregnancy passed through his head.
Tae Jo, clutching the car keys, left the office. There were few employees left in the building as it was well past quitting time.
“Uh, tell me. What’s up?”
No, it’s not that.
“You sound weak.”
I had morning sickness earlier… I’m a bit tired.
How severe was the morning sickness to make her feel exhausted? Perhaps she should call President Shim and ask for medicine.
Tae Jo with a frown got on the elevator. Descending to the underground parking lot, he immediately started the car.

“So, you couldn’t have dinner.”
Yes. I made soybean paste soup after a long time…
While speaking, the sound of retching again came through the phone. Also, the sound of patting her chest to soothe her upset stomach.
“Is it severe? Should I contact President Shim?”
No need to call for this. It’s what everyone goes through during pregnancy. But, representative.
“Yes.”
I have a favor to ask.
“What favor?”
When we went to the gynecologist last time.
Tae Jo anxiously tapped the steering wheel.
His nerves stood on end when the hospital was mentioned. What did we do that day? As he was trying to remember, Se Kyung spoke.
Could you buy the steak we ate that day?
Tae Jo’s steps quickened down the hallway. In his hand, a shopping bag with a gold logo on a black background swung lightly.
She had vomited up the soybean paste soup she had for dinner due to morning sickness, but even then, Se Kyung said she really wanted to eat the steak they had that day.
She wanted to go and buy it herself, but she was worried she might have morning sickness again while driving, so she held back.
“If you want to eat it, I should buy it.”
It wasn’t such a difficult task.

Upon arriving in front of the house, Tae Jo reached out. Just as he was about to press the bell, he heard the sound of the door opening from inside.
Through the slightly open iron door, Se Kyung peered out. The corners of Tae Jo’s mouth loosened.
“How did you know I was coming?”
“I’ve been waiting at the door.”
“For me, or for the meat?”
“For the representative bringing the meat.”
Se Kyung opened the door wide as if to hurry him in.
As Tae Jo stepped into the entrance, he looked over Se Kyung’s face. Her already fair face seemed to have become paler.
“Is your stomach okay?”
Tae Jo lightly touched Se Kyung’s cheek with his hand.
“The nausea has subsided. I just feel a bit empty.”
Se Kyung smiled as if to alleviate any worry. She placed the shopping bag she brought on the dining table and went to the bathroom.
“Hmm?”
While washing his hands at the sink and shaking off the water, a thin thread ring caught Tae Jo’s eye.
He picked up the ring and examined it.
“Why is it so small?”
The circumference of the ring was so small it might have belonged to a child. At most, it could only fit on his pinky.

“Is this yours, Se Kyung?”
Coming out of the bathroom, Tae Jo showed the ring to Se Kyung and asked.
“Yes. I took it off briefly while washing my hands. It was in the sink, right?”
“Yes. Your fingers are really thin.”
Se Kyung slipped the ring Tae Jo handed her onto her little finger. She took out the packaged meat and placed it on the grill.
“Did you have dinner, sir?”
“I had a simple meal earlier.”
“If you’re still hungry, eat more. There’s doenjangguk (soybean paste soup), and I made fresh rice. Should I serve it?”
“Even when you couldn’t eat doenjangguk due to morning sickness?”
Tae Jo smirked teasingly. He was well aware of her nausea, and his words implied, how could I eat that?
“Now that we have meat…….”
“Just eat comfortably. Don’t worry about me.”
Tae Jo placed the deliciously grilled meat on Se Kyung’s plate. She dipped the juicy meat in salt and put it in her mouth.
Her lips moved vigorously, chewing the meat bursting with juice.
“How is it?”
“It’s delicious. You should eat too, sir.”
Se Kyung picked up a piece of meat piling up on her plate and offered it to Tae Jo. After a moment’s hesitation, he swallowed the piece of meat Se Kyung gave him in one bite.
“Not bad. Oh, when are you going to the hospital again?”
“The day after tomorrow. It seems that’s the only time I can make it.”
“What time? I’ll pick you up.”
“I made an appointment for five o’clock. But aren’t you busy? I can just drive myself.”
“I can manage that much. Then I’ll be home by four o’clock.”
“Um, then please just drop me off at the hospital. I’ll take a taxi home.”
“Why take a taxi. I can wait.”
