⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽ Yoongi ¹⁰ ☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅

Pregnancy was supposed to be one of the happiest moments of your lives.
At least, that's what you believed.
But something changed.
And you noticed it before anyone else.

Yoongi stopped hugging you at night.
He no longer sought out your hand.
Conversations became shorter.
And when you looked at him... he would look away.

Your body had changed.
Dark circles from exhaustion.
Clothes that no longer fit.
Stretch marks that were beginning to appear.
Every day it became harder to recognize yourself in the mirror.
And, little by little, you felt that he didn't recognize you either.

One night, you gathered the courage to ask him.

Am I not pretty to you anymore?

Yoongi took several seconds to answer.
Too many.

It's not that...

But his silence said something different.

Tears began to fall before you could stop them.

I'm carrying our child...

Your voice cracked.

And all I want is for you to look at me like you used to.

He lowered his head.
Not because he hadn't heard you.
But because he didn't know how to respond.

That night, you slept with your back to him.
With one hand over your belly.
Silently promising the little one that, even if his father had stopped looking at you with love...
You would never stop loving him.
