~~~But the line never went through.Hailey spent two more days in the hospital. She spent two more days dialing that same number. Kendrick's phone was still off. And she began to worry. Was he alright? Did something happen to him? How could he not charge his phone for complete three days? What was going on? Today, she sat on a bench just outside the hospital building. The park which was filled with people bustled with chatters of patients and visitors. The small park was built inside the hospital territory, and she could sight the big street ahead from the small metal fence. Hailey was alone, sitting on the bench and staring into nothingness, with Kara's phone in her hands.Kara had gone to a stall nearby to get some candies. She said it would help decrease the bitter taste in her mouth. Hailey's palm traveled to her stomach, this time she didn't hold it tightly. As she stared at the many people in one place, she suddenly preferred the solitude in the mansion. She preferred the

"I want to be like the King," the little boy exclaimed.But the little girl pouted. "No, I want to be like the King. The Queen isn't nice."Hailey couldn't agree more. The Queen really wasn't nice."When the Queen didn't stop being stubborn, her illness didn't go." Hailey went on. "And not long after that, the Queen fell into a big accident.""What happened to the Queen?""Did the King save her?""Yeah." Hailey nodded. "The King saved the Queen's life. He wanted her to live on." "That's amazing." The kids clapped their hands."Aunty, did that mean the Queen still hated the King after that."Hailey swallowed and quickly shook her head. "No, Dear," she answered the girl. "The Queen didn't hate the King anymore. And in fact..." She trailed off and spaced out again. "The Queen just realized that she had been secretly in love with the King. She became used to his nice treatments so much, she didn't want it to stop."The kids giggled at the same time, and Hailey's heart twisted with that f

"It is too late to have regrets now, Hailey." Her stepmother clicked her tongue. Then she opened the water bottle in her hands and handed it to the man who looked as if he was having a heart attack. "You shouldn't have been that heartless to the unborn child. You shouldn't have driven out of your house in that state. I know the cruelty runs in the blood, but you grew up with your grandfather. I thought he has imparted some human logic in your head.""Ahh, forget that." The man waved his hand in a dismissive manner before handing her the water bottle. "Now that things have come to this, let's not dwell on the past." Then he shifted on the couch and faced Hailey. "Since you're almost better now, don't let go of the opportunity when your body gets stronger. Make sure you conceive immediately. Do that fast! Before another woman catches your husband's eyes. You have to make it fast, Okay? You have to give birth to a boy no matter what—""What the hell is going on here?" Kara entered the

And Hailey contemplated if she should give her a visit after meeting with the doctor. But she didn't know her way around the hospital. She might get lost. And she didn't have the heart to make the staff leave her post for long. They soon got to the doctor's office and the staff waited outside the door while Hailey entered inside. Her eyes wandered around the office before they landed on the middle-aged man who looked surprised to see her. "It is you, Hailey." He stood up and extended his hand to her. "What a delightful surprise, I was just about to come see you."Hailey smiled and took his hand then he helped her to a chair. "I can see you are eager to say goodbye soon," the doctor joked and Hailey didn't hesitate to nod. Then he went back to his chair and picked up her files which were already on his desk.He began going through them while Hailey's eyes were glued to the papers, her heart beating again in anticipation. Hopefully, the doctor wouldn't find any problem. Hailey ha

"Hailey..."But the reality wouldn't leave her alone. There was also a hand gripping hers."Hailey, gosh you almost scared me." Kara's tone was anxious. "Are you alright?" She tugged at Hailey's hand. "Where do you feel pain, Hailey? Let me know."Pain?Tears rolled down Hailey's eyes.She opened them once more to be met with the blurry figure of Kara hovering over her. And not only was Kara in the room, there was also the figure of an older woman. "It's alright, Hailey. Crying is bad for your health." Kara wiped her tears and coaxed. Hailey bit her lips hard and squeezed her eyes shut for some seconds. Loud sobs threatened to escape her lips, however, she suppressed them.When her vision was once again clearer, she stared at Kara whose expression was ebbed with a huge concern, then her eyes strayed to the woman who was standing behind Kara. They both stared at Hailey as if she was the most pitiful being right now on the earth. The look of pity in their eyes made Hailey starkly aw
