h4Chapter 120: BABY TIGER/h4

    "DADDY, do you not want to y with me?"

    Aigooya.

    Garam knew that he was in a dream when a talking baby tiger appeared in front of him.

    Moreover, he suddenly found himself in a forest.

    iIt’s like I became a D*sney princess with all these cute animals around me.../i

    But he only focused on the baby tiger that was now rubbing itself against his leg.

    "Did you just call me ’daddy?’"

    "You’re my daddy," the baby tiger said. "And I’m your baby."

    Aigooya.

    iYep, this is really a dream./i

    "Why am I your daddy?" Garam asked, sitting on the grass and leaning against the boulder behind him. "I’m a human and you’re a tiger."

    "You’re still my daddy," the baby tiger insisted, and it even sat on hisp while looking up at him with those huge, round eyes. "I’m your baby. Please believe me."

    Aigooya.

    iHowe a tiger’s eyes are so round and cute?/i

    Garam couldn’t help himself and carefully touched the baby tiger with his hands.

    Aww.

    iHis fur is soft./i

    "Can you tell now, Daddy?" the baby tiger asked, his voice full of hope. "I’m your baby, am I not?"

    This child is really cute.

    Oh.

    iSince when do I address the tiger as a ’him’ and a ’child?’/i

    It seemed like Garam had already epted the fact that this baby tiger was, indeed, his son.

    iI know this is just a conception dream, but it still feels real./i

    Real in the sense that it was as if he were talking to his son.

    iWhich is impossible because my baby is only two weeks old. One could even argue that what’s in my womb isn’t a baby yet./i

    "Daddy, it’s okay if you don’t want to y with me."

    "Hmm? What are you talking about?"

    "I think I’m making you sad, Daddy."

    Oh.

    Maybe this wasn’t a conception dream.

    iPerhaps this is just my conscience speaking./i

    "Daddy, I don’t want to make you sad," the baby tiger said in a calm yet sad voice. "If I’m the reason Daddy can’t smile anymore, then I’ll understand if you just let me go."

    Oh.

    iOh./i

    The baby tiger knew that Garam was thinking of getting rid of his baby.

    iYes, this must be my conscience speaking./i

    But, to be fair...

    "I admit that I consider the option of getting rid of you. Only for a moment, though. But, even so, it kills me that I even considered it for a moment."

    Yes, Garam felt guilty for thinking of getting rid of his baby.

    After all, it wasn’t like he was totally against the idea.

    "I just haven’t entertained the idea of having a baby because I wanted to focus on my career yet. Plus, I’m only twenty-five. Although you can be a good parent at any age, I just feel like I’m not yet ready. That’s why I told Sihyuk Hyung that I didn’t want to have a child."

    However, even though Garam told Song Sihyuk that he couldn’t see himself having a baby in the near future, he knew the Alpha could have easily changed his mind.

    After all, he hadpletely fallen in love with his husband.

    "If Sihyuk Hyung hadn’t acted impatient, or if he had been honest fro the start, then I would have considered having a baby with him," Garam said, gently pulling the baby tiger close to him. "My career as an idol isn’t forever. Our group isn’t at the top, after all. So, along the way, I would have thought about having aplete family with Sihyuk Hyung."

    But Song Sihyuk had to lie behind his back.

    That damned Alpha just had to destroy his career so Garam would be forced to consider being a father instead of continuing his life as an idol.

    So, he wanted revenge.

    "I didn’t want Sihyuk Hyung to get what he wants, and that’s the only reason I considered getting rid of you," Garam admitted. He knew the baby tiger could understand him by how the baby tiger suddenly looked sad. "But I don’t hate you, baby. Seeing you now made me realize that I shouldn’t hate just because of what Sihyuk Hyung did to me."

    Of course, his situation didn’t apply to everyone.

    He understood people who wanted to get rid of their babies because of their hatred for the father of their children.

    I won’t judge them.

    It was just that Garam really didn’t hate the idea of having a child with Song Sihyuk.

    But that didn’t mean he was willing to forgive the Alpha already.

    "I’ll keep you, but not your daddy," Garam said softly, hugging the baby tiger while closing his eyes. "I’ll raise you on my own, baby."

    The baby tiger hugged Garam back. "I’ll stick with you, Daddy."

    Oh.

    Garam btedly realized that there were short and frail arms hugging him now, but he couldn’t open his eyes anymore.

    My baby has turned human...

    SONG Sihyuk wanted to go straight to Lim Garam, but he held himself back.

    Strong and stinky pheromones wereing out of his body, so he might identally hurt his wife if he went to him in that state.

    He needed an outlet first.

    Hence, he went to the hospital.

    Thankfully, Seong Kyungmin was in his office.

    "Song Sihyuk, what are you doing here?" Seong Kyungmin asked, obviously on guard, while getting up from his seat. "You should have called first— argh!"

    The doctor wasn’t able to finish his sentence because Song Sihyuk punched him in the face.

    He didn’t hold back his strength.

    Hence, Seong Kyungmin fell to the floor— with a bleeding, broken nose at that.

    The doctor looked up at Song Sihyuk, his eyes obviously cursing him.

    "You deserve that," Song Sihyuk said through gritted teeth. He clenched his hands tight, stopping himself from punching the doctor again. After all, he still needed to talk to Seong Kyungmin. "Did you tell Lim Garam to get an abortion?"

    "I guess there’s a snitch among my staff members," Seong Kyungmin said, scoffing while getting up. The doctor flinched when he tried to wipe the blood off his nose. He just probably realized that his nose was broken because of Song Sihyuk’s punch. "I didn’t tell Garam-ssi to get an abortion."

    "Liar. You just reached out to a doctor who’s known for—"

    "I just gave him an option."

    "What?"

    "I simply let Lim Garam know that he doesn’t have to keep the baby if he wants to. That abortion is an option, especially for an Omega like him who has been taken advantage of an Alpha. But I didn’t force the idea on him," Seong Kyungmin said firmly. "I’m not like you, Song Sihyuk— I actually respect other people’s choices."

    Song Sihyuk scoffed. "I didn’t take advantage—"

    "You didn’t take the birth control pills even though you promised Lim Garam that you were taking them regrly," Seong Kyungmin said sternly, cutting Song Sihyuk off. "You tried to baby trap Lim Garam."

    Now Song Sihyuk couldn’t say anything back to Seong Kyungmin.

    After all, the doctor was right.

    It’s true that I tried to baby trap Lim Garam into staying with me.

    "But it won’t work, Song Sihyuk," Seong Kyungmin said, obviously mocking Song Sihyuk. "Lim Garam hates you now. Do you think he’d still want to keep the baby? The baby that you forced on him."

    Now Song Sihyuk understood why people say the ’truth hurts.’

    He didn’t want to admit this, but he felt a pang in his chest when Seong Kyungmin said that Lim Garam might not want to keep the baby because of Lim Garam’s hatred for him.

    I know it’s possible because Lim Garam really hates me now.

    So, for the first time in Song Sihyuk’s life, he felt scared.

    But he hid that fear with anger.

    I can’t waver here.

    Song Sihyuk red at Seong Kyungmin who was obviously hating on him, too. "I don’t care about what you think of me now. But if you perform abortion on my wife— or if you help him get one— I’ll kill you all."

    "YOU STILL look sleepy, dear. Why don’t you return to your room and sleep more?"

    "I’ve been sleeping for days now, Appa," Garam said,ughing softly while shaking his head. "My baby is only three weeks old now, but I already feel weak."

    Yeah, it had been a full week already since he found out that he was pregnant.

    iAnd a week since I decided to keep the baby./i

    "That’s normal, dear," Lee Wonjae assured him while rubbing his back. "Male Omegas get weak when we are pregnant. Once you start getting morning sickness, it willst the entire pregnancy."

    Garam let out a gasp. "The entire pregnancy?"

    "Yes. As I said earlier, male Omegas get really weak during pregnancy— and it’s because the symptoms of being pregnant stay with us until we give birth to the baby."

    Aigooya.

    Now Garam was scared of getting his morning sickness.

    He was about to ask something to his Omega father-inw, but a strong scent hit his nose— making him frown.

    iThese strong pheromones.../i

    "What’s wrong, dear?" Lee Wonjae asked worriedly when he saw Garam cover his nose and mouth with his hand. "Are you going to throw up?"

    Garam shook his head, taking a deep breath. "Sihyuk Hyung is here..."

    As if on cue, a loudmotion suddenly urred outside.

    Yes, Song Sihyuk had finally shown up after being quiet for days.
