Reasonable Loss - 20

In a weak murmur, Eunsoo’s words trailed off. Dokwon’s chin dropped in surprise. Eunsoo glanced at him briefly, then looked back at the monitor. Dokwon pulled his chin to make him look at him.

“Eunsoo.”

“…Yes?”

“Why are you saying such things? I almost got mad at you.”

“But…”

“Your scent is better than any scent I’ve ever smelled in my life.”

“…”

“Even now. It will be like that in the future.”

Dokwon pressed his lips against Eunsoo’s cheek and then let go. Then, as if to show off, he buried his face deep into Eunsoo’s neck and smelled him. A soft, gentle, yet sweet smell emanated from her. It was a smell that could only be experienced in heaven.

The smell of sour milk, the smell of the drain, it’s a smell so intoxicating that it can’t be compared to such words.

The calm waves of Dokwon’s hair tickled Eunsoo’s chin. In response to the tickling, Eunsoo let out a soft laugh.

“Really?”

“Yes.”

Dokwon met Eunsoo’s eyes and smiled gently.

And the next day, when Eunsoo visited the hospital out of curiosity, he found out that he was pregnant.

Eunsoo wondered if there had been any changes in his body since then. There must have been a clear reason why Dokwon found her scent so repulsive, even wrinkling his nose so deeply.

So she came to the obstetrics and gynecology department. It was a small hospital. Unable to take a car, feeling anxious, and going to the nearest obstetrics and gynecology department as best as she could in her surroundings. Although there was an obstetrics and gynecology department she used to go with Dokwon, it was difficult to go there from the subway station.

After completing the registration, Eunsoo stared blankly at her pale hand.

“Mr. Yoo Eunsoo, please come in.”

Eunsoo’s name was called. Eunsoo quickly got up and entered the examination room.

The examination proceeded smoothly. The doctor was a young woman with her hair tied up high, looking quite strict due to her sharp jaw and rimless glasses. She diagnosed Eunsoo’s condition while moving her slightly pink lips.

Eunsoo listened to her words as if in a daze. He had heard similar things several times at the previous hospital, so he waited for the doctor’s formal words to end, wondering if there was anything else she wanted to ask.

“You don’t need to worry too much about a miscarriage. Omegas usually give birth smoothly. Plus, you’re young, so it should be fine. Do you have any other questions?”

The doctor finished speaking in a monotone voice. Eunsoo quickly pulled the chair closer and spoke up.

“Excuse me.”

“Yes?”

“Could it be that the father of my child might perceive my pheromones differently because I’m pregnant?”

“…What?”

“I feel like he perceives it differently from before. If that’s the case, if, if the child is gone… will it be okay?”

…”

The doctor was momentarily lost in thought. It was unclear whether she was shocked by the inhuman words or felt disgust at the ignorant words.

However, Eunsoo didn’t notice such a reaction at all. He was already half out of his mind, not even realizing what she had said.

If Dokwon had just forgotten him due to memory loss, it would have been okay. It would have been bitter and sad, but he could have endured it.
