(ZHIO)

She shook her head brashly and attempted to walk away.  

I grabbed her by the hand and stood up to face her.  

"What's that for?"

She shoved my hands off.

"I know I'm an idiot. But you're infertile Zhio and you want me to believe that you got me pregnant? You just used me!"

"Listen Claire."

"I don't want to!"

I held her hands tight again.  

She cried.

I loosened my grip on her but didn't let her go anywhere away from me.

"Listen Claire. You're pregnant. Whether you like it or not, that night led to this. And I'm claiming all responsibility for it."

"That's bullshit Zhio."

"You're pregnant. That's what the test result suggested."

She cried harder so, inevitably, I was hugging her again.

"You're done so much for your family Claire. But now…please be responsible for the baby you have in your womb. Stop being so emotional, it'll harm both of you."

She suddenly pushed me away.

"I shouldn't be pregnant! What happened between us is a freaking mistake," she yelled.

"I don't want anybody else to get caught in between us. Especially not this kid!"

I exhaled heavily.

I've been trying to control my emotions but…

"Remember that you're carrying a Zel Cantheliz! Do what you have to keep it alive."  

"You're so evil!"

I grabbed my own hair tightly. She's so hard to talk to!

"Claire!"

She sat by the bedside.

"Of all woman you could have, why did you choose to drag me into your misery? Do I really have to suffer in exchange of everything you've done for my family?"

I approached and sat beside her.

"Think what you want to think of me. You're right about fixing my problem but I've fixed yours too. It's just fair business between us."

"Don't include me in that business crap. You businessmen were rotten and were always trying to outsmart people through your ploys."

"In business, all investment you risked must return in doubled, but at most cases, tripled profit…"

"Only greedy businessmen like you want that kind of avarice!"  

"That's part of life Claire. In this world, there are only two types of people: those who fool and those who get fooled. If you're weak, you get cheated on. But well whatever…You'd just hate me more if something bad will happen to our child. Please relax."

"Bullshit."

"Shhh. Just take some rest Claire."
