How to Have a Baby S Chapter 42

While Sunwoo stared blankly, Kang Jinwook frowned and stepped over the gate. Actually, calling it a "gate" was almost laughable in Jeju.

It was just three long wooden rods hanging up, and it was only a few days later when a realtor told Sunwoo that it was called a "jeongnang."

He had seen so explanation about how the three wooden rods should be arranged, but he didn’t rember much, and Sunwoo just left all three of them hanging down. After all, there was nothing to steal from the house. That was his thought process.

Kang Jinwook stepped through the makeshift gate and entered the yard. His gaze never left Sunwoo. The way he walked forward, so confidently, looked almost like a model. Thinking about it, this was the first ti Sunwoo had ever looked at Kang Jinwook so leisurely.

Judging by his appearance, Kang Jinwook really was a stunning man who could captivate attention. He wasn’t particularly big, but he looked fit, tall, and with long legs.

For soone like Sunwoo, who had never thought about relationships and had only dreamt about them, it might have been sothing to be thankful for—soone like him obsessing over him.

"Why am I even thinking this?" Sunwoo muttered to himself in disbelief.

"What?"

Kang Jinwook raised an eyebrow upon hearing Sunwoo.

"Nothing. Sit there."

Sunwoo pointed to the seat across from him with his chin. Kang Jinwook twitched his lips in displeasure but didn’t say anything and sat down where Sunwoo pointed.

A hot breeze blew in. Maybe it would have been better to just go inside and wait.

For a mont, Sunwoo regretted his decision, but soon he changed his mind. Still, he didn’t want to bring Kang Jinwook into the house.

"Make an excuse."

The words weren’t from Kang Jinwook; they were from Sunwoo.

"Excuse?"

"Yeah. You must have sothing to say."

Sunwoo crossed his arms and looked at Kang Jinwook. It was a way of telling him that, for now, he was willing to listen to why Kang Jinwook did what he did.

But instead of responding, Kang Jinwook turned his head. The neatly arranged yard, the clean house, the stone wall with the sea waves gently rolling in the background.

The house felt more cozy than expected, even more fitting for soone like Choi Sunwoo, and sohow it seed to suit him well.

"I just wanted to do it."

Finally, Kang Jinwook returned his gaze to Sunwoo.

"Yeah?"

The words that ca from Kang Jinwook didn’t seem like sothing he would say. Just wanted to do it?

"You asked for ti. I thought it’d be fine as long as you weren’t running away. I gave you ti, but I also wanted to know what you were doing. Can’t help it, right?"

"Ugh... Really, Kang Jinwook..."

Seeing Kang Jinwook speak like a child, Sunwoo sighed deeply. Yeah, when he thought about it, Kang Jinwook was exactly this type of person.

When he spoke with insu, he often thought in a way that wasn’t typical, doing things that would leave readers shocked.

I guess it’s because he’s a hyper-masculine alpha, and I could just overlook it when I was reading the book.

But now, Sunwoo was facing Kang Jinwook as soone who lived in this world, not as a re reader of a book. The only fortunate thing was that, because of his past actions, Kang Jinwook didn’t behave recklessly.

"You lack common sense."

"What?"

"Normal people wouldn’t do that."

Sunwoo quickly added to his words as he noticed Kang Jinwook’s raised eyebrow.

"Of course, I can’t really call you a normal person. You’re a dominant alpha. But even so, when soone asks for ti, most people just wait. They don’t attach people like you do."

While Sunwoo was speaking, he didn’t think Kang Jinwook would understand. He just hoped that Kang Jinwook wouldn’t ignore him completely.

"So, what should I do?"

To his surprise, Kang Jinwook responded with a question.

"What?"

"You wanted to know what I do when you’re not around. So, what should I do? I had no choice."

Sunwoo instinctively rubbed his arms, which were crossed. For so reason, it felt a little itchy.

Why is he saying stuff like that? It was such an awkward thing to say. Saying he wanted to know what Sunwoo was doing when he wasn’t around. What should I do in that case?

It almost sounded like he was saying it because he was interested in him. Of course, Sunwoo knew Kang Jinwook was paying attention to him, but...

It felt strange, almost like there were so emotions hidden behind those words.

"Well, what can I do? Just contact

more often."

That’s what most people would do.

"But you’re already doing that, aren’t you?"

In the morning, when he wakes up, when he eats, even before bed, they send each other ssages. Sunwoo and Kang Jinwook had already been in constant contact.

But Kang Jinwook didn’t think that was enough. He wasn’t satisfied with just texts; he wanted to see what Sunwoo was doing, even if it was just through pictures.

"So, that’s enough? You want to know what I’m doing?"

"If I hadn’t known, you wouldn’t have known I was sleeping at the bus stop. With no idea when the bus would co."

"Oh, that..."

"You wouldn’t have known I was heading to the taxi stand with heavy bags either. Or that my hands turned red from carrying them."

Although they were talking about the sa things as before with the surveillance guys, the mood now felt completely different. Why did it feel so ticklish this ti?

The n had only given excuses, but Kang Jinwook’s words felt different. He had said it because he was worried about Sunwoo.

"I don’t want to be unaware of those monts. But you wouldn’t tell , would you? So, I had no choice."

No, why would you have no choice? Normal people wouldn’t do this.

"Still, not many people act like you. Usually, people just talk, don’t they?"

Sunwoo looked at Kang Jinwook, realizing sothing again. They weren’t in a romantic relationship. Even though they were engaged, it had been an arranged relationship. So what exactly was going on between them now?

Before, he could just say they weren’t anything to each other, but now, he couldn’t bring himself to say it.

"Talk...?"

"Yeah. Instead of attaching people, just ask like you’re doing now."

As Sunwoo spoke, he looked away. He could feel Kang Jinwook’s gaze on his cheek.

"Alright. I’ll do it like you said."

Kang Jinwook’s answer made Sunwoo quickly turn his head.

"You’re saying you’ll do it?"

Kang Jinwook was acting so ekly. What was going on? Sunwoo looked at him in confusion.

"Then you should start contacting

more often, too."

"Uh, uh..."

Without realizing it, Sunwoo nodded and scratched his cheek. It felt like he had hurriedly settled things. It was awkward and strange, but it seed fine.

He didn’t really know what to think, but since Kang Jinwook said he wouldn’t act recklessly anymore, Sunwoo felt like that was enough.

"What about lunch?"

"Well, I don’t know. I haven’t really thought about it."

Things had been moving so quickly that Sunwoo hadn’t felt like eating anything.

Grrr.

Apparently, his body disagreed with his mind. The mont he said that, a loud growl ca from his stomach. Sunwoo instinctively wrapped his arms around his midsection.

Kang Jinwook’s eyes turned to his stomach. He probably thought it was just the sound that was making Sunwoo react, but Sunwoo felt strangely embarrassed. It wasn’t just awkward; it felt like he was blushing.

His cheeks and ears seed to be getting warm, so Sunwoo quickly stood up.

"Uh, wait. I’ll be right back with so food."

Without looking back at Kang Jinwook, Sunwoo hurriedly went inside.

In the kitchen, there were so corn cobs that he had stead earlier that morning, and beside them were so washed peaches.

These days, most of Sunwoo’s food was simple stuff like this. He couldn’t eat much else, so it was all he had.

But Kang Jinwook probably wouldn’t be satisfied with sothing like this.

"Yeah, why did you suddenly show up like this?"

Sunwoo grumbled to himself as he grabbed the corn. He figured he’d feed him this and think about what to do for a al later.

"Ugh!"

Just as Sunwoo was about to turn around, he jumped in surprise. Kang Jinwook was standing by the door, casually looking around the house.

"What, what are you doing here?"

Sunwoo asked, quickly glancing at the bedroom. Fortunately, the door was closed. Then he realized he had overreacted.

After all, Kang Jinwook was standing in the living room, so he couldn’t possibly see the ultrasound picture stuck under the window. He clicked his tongue internally, thinking how much of a fool he was being.

"It’s better than I expected."

Kang Jinwook didn’t answer Sunwoo’s question. Instead, he casually comnted as he walked in.

The ceiling wasn’t that high, but with Kang Jinwook entering, it seed like he was about to hit his head on it.

As Kang Jinwook tilted his head back to look up, his nose almost brushed the ceiling. Sunwoo watched with his mouth slightly open.

How tall was Kang Jinwook again? Sunwoo quickly recalled the synopsis the author had sent him. He rembered it said 195 cm, or maybe 197 cm.

He didn’t think anyone from Korea could be that tall, but well, it was a fictional setting, so maybe it was believable. Sunwoo had never seen such a tall person in real life, so he just assud he was really tall.

"Wow, you’re really tall..."

Sunwoo exclaid in awe, and Kang Jinwook straightened up, raising an eyebrow. He then noticed the basket in Sunwoo’s hand and quickly grabbed it.

"You’re not telling

this is lunch, are you?"

"No, it is, actually."

Sunwoo reflexively answered, then awkwardly smiled.

"But I guess you won’t be satisfied with just this, will you? So, um... what would you like to eat?"

As Sunwoo fumbled with his hands, unsure of what to do, Kang Jinwook, still holding the basket, turned and walked out of the house.

"It’s fine. This is enough."

Sunwoo, watching him go without a word, quickly followed him outside.
