[COMPLETED]
Nala and Soobin were once a very happy couple, but one day, she unexpectedly left. A year later, Soobin spots her in a café and is surprised to notice a baby stroller next to her. As he comes to realize that he now has a daughter, questi...
Nala's POV As the first rays of morning light filtered through the curtains, I woke up, feeling slightly sore but relieved not to be in as much pain as I was yesterday. The gentle hush of dawn surrounded me, and when I turned my gaze, I saw Soobin still peacefully asleep. His restfulness filled me with tenderness, and I leaned over to lightly kiss his forehead—a silent promise of gratitude for his constant presence and support.
With care, I rose from the bed, mindful of my oxygen tank that accompanied me every step of the way. I was still adjusting to this routine, but I felt grateful for the ability to move around independently. Gently guiding the oxygen tank, I made my way to Seo-yoon's crib. A soft smile tugged at my lips upon seeing her, still wrapped in the sweet embrace of slumber. Her tiny forms and rhythmic breaths were profoundly comforting.
Before long, I chose my outfit

and slipped into the bathroom to take a quick shower. Temporarily unhooking my oxygen, I let the warm water cascade over me—it felt reviving and healing. I dried off and dressed quickly, feeling freshly renewed and ready to start the day. Once my oxygen was reattached, I returned to the room, where Soobin was beginning to stir from sleep.
"Morning, my love, " I greeted him, seeing the sleepiness still lingering in his eyes.
"Morning, Mamas," he replied, his voice thick with the soft beginnings of wakefulness.
I went over to him, offering a gentle kiss, and then moved to pick up Seo-yoon, who was now awake, her eyes twinkling with the unique curiosity of infants. Her smile was contagious, and I felt my worries begin to dissolve at the edges. Holding her securely, I settled into a comfortable spot and began breastfeeding her, grateful for these precious moments of nurturing and connection.
As Seo-yoon fed, I felt Soobin's reassuring presence as he leaned down to kiss my cheek. "I'm glad that both my girls are okay," he murmured, his voice tender and filled with warmth.
Basking in the presence of my small family, I smiled down at Seo-yoon, her gentle sucking and subtle movements reminding me of the beauty in simplicity.
A moment later, Soobin spoke, a slight hesitance threading through his words. "Mamas... I have to tell you something..."
I sensed the weight behind his statement, and looked up with calm attentiveness. "What is it, love??? You seem worried..."
He released a sigh that conveyed his thoughts. "We are having a family dinner with the others tonight... It's going to be here."
His announcement hung in the air, stirring the past into the present. Though the idea of reconnecting with the family excited me, an undercurrent of apprehension swirled through my heart. I knew there were unresolved feelings stemming from my abrupt departure, and the prospect of facing those emotions felt daunting.
Yet as I drifted too deeply into thought, Soobin placed a gentle hand on my cheek, anchoring me back in the moment. Concern etched in his gaze, he asked, "Mamas... Are you okay???"
His question, offered with genuine care, nudged me from my reverie, and I nodded slowly. "I'm just worried," I admitted, the confession coming softly.
He nodded in understanding, and asked, "About seeing the others???"
"I nodded again, feeling the layers of anxiety begin to unravel, revealing my greatest fear. "I know I messed up by just leaving, and I have a feeling they're angry with me."
His reassurances, grounded in love and empathy, began to lay paths toward resolution. "Yes, they were upset, but we're going to talk it out, and I'm sure everything will be just fine."
The comfort of his words wrapped around me, blurring the edges of my apprehension. I leaned against him, my trust firm in his promise and the quiet strength he brought to our family.
Together, we watched Seo-yoon continue to eat, her innocence reminding us of the peace found in simply being present—the gentle embrace of family steadying our hearts for whatever lay ahead...
