I bounced my leg up and down anxiously as I waited for the stick on the counter to finish determining if I was pregnant or not. Hopefully I saw the results I've been waiting for. Once it was time, I picked it up with wishful thinking then looked at it. Negative. I furrowed my brows and threw it in the bin. Walking out into the living room, I sat down, sinking into the couch, and sulked. When my husband Jin came home, he had a large smile on his face.

"So? Do you have good news?" Once he saw the look on my face, his smile fell. "I take that as a no," He said. Once he got settled in, he sighed and sat next to me.

"Maybe there's something wrong with me," I said.

"No, there can't be. There's a possibility of not getting pregnant, maybe we're just getting the odds." He put his arm around me and gave me a reassuring look.

"I want to go to the doctors. We've tried so many times, and every time has been unsuccessful." I looked down at my hands in my lap.

"Whatever you want to do," Jin said.

I was able to get into the doctors the next day to figure out why I wasn't getting pregnant.
"Mrs.Kim, I found your problem. You have an unusually shaped uterus making it hard for the egg to attach itself. And if it did, it probably wouldn't survive past 3 weeks. Now, this can be an easy fix, just some simple surgery to reconstruct-"

"Surgery?!" Jin panicked.

"Yes, we can go in there and reconstruct her uterus. But, there is a 50% chance that it won't work," The doctor said.

My heart beat faster and Jin squeezed my hand.

"If you make a decision today, we can get you in by next week."

"Alright, can we have a moment?" I asked quietly.

The doctor nodded. "I'll be back in 10 minutes."

Once the doctor left, Jin shook his head. "No," He said. "I don't want you to get the surgery."

"But it's the only way we'll be able to have children," I said.

"Didn't you hear the doctor? She said it might not work."

I sighed and stated silent.

"I just don't want you to go through that and it not even work."

"But I know how much you want kids, so don't you want to try? We have a 50-50 chance."

"I know that (Y/n), but in our earlier years when we were dating, you said you didn't really care if we had kids, but if I did, then we could have some-"

"And we can!" I cut him off. "I just want to make you happy. I feel like a failure as a wife because I can't even provide my husband with a family." My eyes started watering.

"We don't have to, I don't want you to feel like you have to get the surgery just for me. I'm telling you right now, you don't have to do this," He said, looking into my eyes.

I knew he was being truthfull because he wants to protect me, but I could tell he was hurt.

"Fine," I said.

The next day, I laid in bed all day. Jin kept trying to get me to get up, but I would move. He eventually stopped when he had to go to work, and I remained there until he came home.

"I know you're probably still upset, but let's go out tonight, okay?" Jin offered.

I was getting a little depressed just laying there, so I agreed. After our nice dinner, we came home and had some sexy time to lighten the mood. I didn't bother taking another pregancy text because I already knew the answer. Or at least I thought.

Over the next 3 months, I had the occasional drink here and there, and more sexy time with Jin. Within the next 3 months, I've noticed that I started to gain weight and became insecure, so the sexy time was minimal. In the last 3 months, Jin was away for a while for work training new employees in a different building, so I had two of my best friends over to keep me company.

"Ugh, why am I so fat?!" I sighed.

"You said you only gained like 8 pounds, it's not that bad," My friend Min said.

"It is, though, I don't understand why."

"It's probably just stress, Jin is gone so that's probably affecting you," Choa added.

"But it started happening before he left."

I thought about it for a second, but nothing was making sense, my eating habits and physical activity has been the same as usual.

"I guess I'll just have to start working ou-" I stopped talking when I felt a sharp pain in my abdomen.

"What is it, are you okay?" I shook my head as the pain got worse. When it subsided, I took deep breathes.

"What was that?"

"I have no idea."

A couple minutes later, it happen again, and again until finally Min wanted to take me to the hospital. We rushed unto the emergency room, and as the nurse was examining me, her eyes widened.

"You're going into labor," She said.

"What?!" Min, Choa and myself were all surprised.

"Labor for what? A kidney stone? I'm not pregnant!" I yelled.

"Yes you are, and that baby is coming now!"

The nurse ran off to contact the nursery part of the hospital and they transported me there to give both to my...baby?

"Min, will you call Jin and tell him what's going on?"

Although I didn't even know what was going on. Min quickly took out her phone and called Jin as her and Choa were following me to the delivery room. I let the two of them stay in the room since Jin wasn't there, I needed the support.

After only an hour of pain, sweat and tears, I heard the cries of a small child ringing in my ears. My brain couldn't comprehend what was happening until the doctor put the baby in my arms.

"It's a girl," She said.

Min, Choa and I stared at the tiny being in disbelief.

"I was pregnant," I whispered. The doctor took the baby away a few minutes later to clean her up.

"Jin said he'll be here in a few minutes," Min said.

As the doctor was placing the baby back in my arms, she asked, "So, I'm guessing you didn't know you were pregnant?"

"That would be correct," I said.

As soon as I finished answering, the doctor I went to see 9 months ago walked through the door.

"I came as soon as I saw your name admitted into the system," She said, also looking in disbelief.

"This is truly a miracle," She said.

"I guess it is, I didn't even know I was pregnant. I had no symptoms, well, except slight weight gain, but that's it. I didn't even put out," I said.

"Well, as rare as it is, it's still possible." She looked at my baby and examined her with her eyes. "She seems to have no deformities, all 10 fingers and toes?"

I nodded.

"Well, you beat the odds, Congratulations, (y/n)," She said with a smile.

The door opened again, a pale Jin stumbled through the door and froze as soon as he saw me and our child. He slowly made his way over to me, his eyes glued to the baby.

"How-" He was speechless. He leaned over the side of the bed and looked at the sleeping face.

"Do you want to hold her?"

Jin's eyes lit up. "It's a girl?" I nodded.

He smiled and carefully picked her up.

"Hi," He whispered. "Have you named her yet?"

"No, I wanted to wait until you got here so we could decide together," I said.

We decided to name her Chomin, after Choa and Min. They were super excited they got to be inspirations as they put it. The next few days I was recovering, our parents came to visit, and maybe family members and friends bought us things for Chomin since we were obviously not prepared. Once we were finally able to bring her home, we looked at her as she slept in her bassinet next to our bed.

"I still can't believe this," Jin said.

"Me neither."

"Are you happy?"

"Of course I am!" Jin smiled.

"Me too."

We decided to go to bed ourselves.

"You know this might not happened again," I said.

"I know, but I'm content with this," Jin said, kissing my forehead.
