Secret Marriage:The Wolf And The Sheep - Chapter 203

Yu Seok paced the gallway, tracing the same path his brother had a few hours ago. Yoo Shiro called their grandfather and shared the good news with the old man that he was going to become a great grandfather, times three! He he… First he became a grandfather to two on the same night and now great grandfather to three on the same night! Anyone who would look at elder Yoo would think that this news had suddenly made him ten years younger as he dressed up carefully to meet his great grandchildren.

Yoo Shiro felt as if his grin was stuck to his face and his jaw was already aching from laughing so hard. He a linked back to his room and saw his wife sleeping. He placed a small kiss on her forehead, patting back the flicks on her forehead. She looked so pale and exhausted. He then turned to the crib where his little babies were sleeping.

Sigh..he hadn’t thought he would fall so hard..he caressed the small cheeks of his little girl and realized what everyone meant when they said love at first sight. This little red faced girl with her haze grey eyes and a small tuft of hair on her head had taken a place in his heart with a stronghold, he never expected to feel. And their little boy, he was sure would look just like him and make him proud. And he decided, his little boy would also help in beating up his sister’s suitors. After all, he was the elder brother by two minutes.

Outside, Yu Seok stared at the door of the delivery room. The nurse had informed him that  they had to induce labor pains as they had yet to start and her crevix was yet to dilate. To put it bluntly, they would have to wait longer or opt for a caesarean section. The doctor would soon let him know..

When Yoo Shiro came out, he saw his brother calmly sitting on a bench. Raising his eyebrows, he wondered what had happened that his brother had just calmed down? Looking down the hallway, he went forward and drew out two bottles of water from the vending machine. Opening one, he gulped it thirstily and then almost spit it out when he glanced at the screen and read what his brother was reading. Coughing and turning red in the face, he snatched the phone from his brother’s hand with bulging eyes. He was sure, if he were a cartoon,  his eyes would be hanging out of their sockets with springs…”Just what are you doing? You are searching about vasectomy?”

With an indifferent face, Yu Seok took back his phone and put it back in his pocket with dignity…

But this was too much for Yoo Shiro to let go so he made himself comfortable next to his brother and asked him,”Well, I could understand my wife barring me from the bedroom just after she suffered from so much physical agony. But why are you doing this?”

Yoo Shiro waited for Yu Seok to answer and almost assumed that he was not going to get any when his low voice sounded, “She is in pain.”

Yoo Shiro could almost feel his jaw drop at the desolate voice of his brother. He looked at Yu Seok and muttered as he shook his head, “You would have given birth to the child if that was possible by nature!”

You Seok ignored his brother. He never wanted to see his Eun-a in pain. And she was bearing it all silently as she waited for their child. No, if it meant that she would have to suffer so much, he was never going to risk it again…Seeing Yu Seok so depressed, Shiro could only shake his head and tried to lighten the mood,”I have a better and sure shot idea that would prevent Xie Eun from getting pregnant and would stop you from worrying about her being in pain.”

Fonally, Yu Seok looked at his brother and raised his eyebrow in question. Grinning, Yoo Shiro answered,”Don’t have se*..You see abstinence is good and all that.”

This cringe joke had Yu Seok glaring at his brother and threatening,”If you don’t want my nephew and niece to lose their father, you better escape.”

Not the least bit perturbed by the threat, Yoo Shiro freely smacked his brother on the head and said,”You must not take such decisions in the heat of the moment. Do you think, I did not feel pain when I saw Shan Shan? But when I saw the happiness on her face despite the exhaustion, I knew that everything would be alright. And you will see the same on your Eun-a’s face. Do you think if you take such a decision, your Eun-a will be happy? I am pretty sure she is going to want more children in the future…”

“So little brother, show some of the infinite patience that you possess and let your wife enjoy the fruits of her labor..pun intended. Heh hehe”

With that philosophical advice, Yoo Shiro went back to the room where his family was resting and observed them all with a moony expression on his face.

Meanwhile, Yu Seok stared blankly at the wall as he waited for their little bundle of joy..and decided to follow the best advice his brother had given,”Enjoy his family.”

And to add fun to the mix, just then Elder Yoo came to the hospital with a big box being carried by the butler. Seemingly dressed for a banquet, Elder Shiro looked totally out of place but the spring in his step and the ruddy cheeks of the man belied his satisfaction and happiness. In a booming voice, he asked,”Where are my great grand children?

Yu Seok sent his grandfather to visit his brother and then continued to wait.. He walked towards the window and watched as the world outside slowly came alive amid greatness from last night thunder and tried to calm his heart…
