BABY, PLEASE

After lunch…

Zu and I enjoyed the breeze in the palace gazebo. And this prince sitting on my left is stretching his arms to my chair. It looks like he's coded for me to lean on him.

"Um, Prince. I want to have my uterus checked. Is there a female healer here?" I asked him.

Suddenly Zu was shocked.

"I-I mean stomach, Prince. I want to know what it really hurts and why it can be like a pregnant person," I explained.

"Hah, I thought you would return on your word this morning." He massaged his chest.

"You mean?" I asked, looking at him.

Zu held my hand, and he then kissed it. "How happy I am to be a special person to you."

"Prince?"

"Ara, you know. At first I resigned myself to accepting fate if I had to become a father, not from my own flesh and blood. But ever since you said that—"

"Stop! Don't go on!" I asked as I covered her lips with my hand.

"Hmm?"
