Jun Ching keeps on running back and forth from his room to the bathroom, squatted down, facing the toilet bowl and puke nonstop. It's almost been a month yet his terrible morning sickness keeps on tormenting him.
For the past weeks, all he could do is to puke and sleep. Whenever he's done, he would signed heavily, washed his mouth and return back to sleep. But this time, it's like all his strength have left his body of how tired he is.
"Are you done? How many times is it now?" Jun Ching weakly rise his head. He saw a man half naked standing at the door looking at him pitifully. The man is carrying a cotton face towel and a glass of lukewarm water. "Here drink this" He handed the glass into Jun Ching with care.
Jun Ching instantly gulp down the water like his life depends on it that he didn't even let a single drop off. Jun Ching feels lifeless. Everytime he vomited he can't help but to weep. Just like the past, living his days like hell with no one but himself to turn to, his been suffering from all those nausea and dizziness alone.
"Let me help you" Fu King offered a helping hand. He wipe down the cold sweat in Jun Ching's forehead and neck. When his done, he took Jun Ching into his arms like a fragile princess being carried away.
Jun Ching flustered like a teenage boy being teased by a handsome prince. He refuses a couple of times but as just Fu King is as stubborn as a mole, he insisted "Nono, Are you deliberately faking your weakness infront of me to carry you up? Look at you, still being energetic. You can say it directly if you wanted to be lifted. I'll gladly comply" Fu King's laughing smirk causes Jun Ching to blushed even more.
It was just 7 days ago when someone knocking in his door steps asking him to be sheltered for several nights. Jun Ching never thought it was his childhood playmate that seeks for help. He cannot describe how surprised he is seeing Fu King for more than a decade. Ofcourse, he will not close his door to someone he once cherished before.
At first, Jun Ching has difficulty to hide his condition. Even he once hesitated to talk about it. He's afraid of being ridiculed and disgust. No one but himself knows about what's happening in his body. But to his surprise, Fu King manage to accept his situation and offered to help him in anyway he can.
Fu King is an open minded person, flirterious, adventurous and wild. But despite his personality he cares much more to Jun Ching better than himself.
Fu King lay Jun Ching gently in the bed. He tucked in a blanket to warm Jun Ching up. He also put pillows in each side as sort of protection. "You take a rest today. Don't exhaust yourself or else the baby will come out ugly. I don't want to have an ugly sprout calling me daddy"
Jun Ching only hummed in respond. He is too tired from just puking out. His eyes are too heavy that he cannot even open up his eyelid.
Fu King was about to leave the room when Jun Ching faintly smile and said "Sasa, thank you". His voice is as hoarse and low. Even with his experience in the past, Jun Ching still cannot get used to it.
Fu King only sigh. He don't have any idea how to make a pregnant person feel better. He don't have any idea what is happening with Jun Ching. All he knows is that this person needs more care and attention, specially in his food preferences.
Jun Ching started to hate most of the food. He cannot eat almost everything. Even the most palatable dish smells awfully disgusting. He could only consume a slice of apple a day.
This things alarmed Fu King. How can someone survive with just a slice of apple. Not to mention that he's eating for two. Jun Ching also lack of vitamins. His kitchen drawer are full of snacks. Not even a single decent ingredients. While the refrigerator has only more or less eggs and beacon with a bottle of drinks.
When Jun Ching told him about his strange condition of being able to conceive, Fu King thought it was a ridiculous joke. A man being pregnant just like a woman with a big pregnant belly is absolutely nonsense. But out of all the people in the world, why it has to be Jun Ching. Why it has to be the man he longed for.
Jun Ching also explain about his horrible morning sickness and the fact that he is already pregnant. If only Fu King knew that Jun Ching could be able to conceive, he, himself will be the father of it.
"By the way, Nono. Where's the father of this child? Can't be possible that he left you after doing that?" Hearing it, Jun Ching's expression suddenly change into a bitter smile. Of all the question that needed to be asked why did he choose to asked about the father?
But instead, Jun Ching replied with a plain face "Dead. He was completely crash by a meteorite. No chance of reincarnation"
Fu King frown. He is somewhat displeased about what he heard that he couldn't help but to feel annoyed "What? Are you going to raise it alone? Don't you want that bastard to take responsibility?" For him, having a strange condition can affect Jun Ching's daily life. With people being ignorant of this kind of thing- they will surely criticize this man. Public opinion are strongly favored by humiliation and shame. "Why not get rid of it? I'll help you" Fu King suggested.
Jun Ching remain silent. If only he isn't afraid to die the second time around.
As someone who experience death and rebirth, living a second life with ease and happiness is what he wants not only for himself but for his child. If his child is the reason why he was given a second life, then he is willing to raise alone. "I think it's not that bad to have a sprout running around, don't you think? Also, I'm afraid of killing it. It is a sin to kill an innocent child" Jun Ching caress his belly in satisfaction and said "This bean is now part of me. No matter what, I will take the responsibility of it myself even if I'm alone"
Fu King grabbed Jun Ching hand. He squeeze it lightly as he was looking straight in Jun Ching's eyes "Nono, remember, you are not alone anymore. I am here with you. I won't leave you no matter what. We'll raise your child together"
An overwhelming joy empowered over Jun Ching's heart. Never would he expected that he will have a companion that will stay with him. Maybe this rebirth is not as bad as he thought it would be.
