Irene tugs on Ms. Lee's lab coat with her droopy eyes.
"Irene, how many times do I have to tell you? I can't." Ms. Lee said as she sighs and takes off her coat.
"You ace all the medical fields, you know I won't believe you. I know you can do it, please?" Irene pleads as she stumbles on the table while following the doctor.
"You're drunk, go back to your members, I still need to pack, I'm leaving later, Irene."
"I'm not drunk, I swear Ms. Lee, I know what I'm doing. Please?" Irene came to her and holds her shoulders to look at her. "We've been friends for so long now, you're technically my mother already, you're leaving and you're the only one I trust with this. I know you can do it, please? Before you leave? Please? Please? Please?"
Ms. Lee stares at her as if looking right through her eyes if she's serious.
"You're drunk." She said then walk past through her to fix her things.
"Ms. Lee, please!" Irene came running to her and kneels.
"Irene! Get up!"
"No! Please unnie, this is the only thing I'm asking you before you leave, I know you can do it, please?" Irene looks up at her with teary eyes.
Ms. Lee sighs in defeat, she knows how persistent Irene can be. "Okay fine, get up."
"Really?! You'll do it?!" Irene stands up with a wide smile. She hugs the older one when she nods her head.
"Where's the egg cell?"
Irene immediately rummages through her purse and takes out a pair of small tubes to give to the doctor.
Ms. Lee eyes it. "Who owns this?"
Irene smiles dreamily. "Lisa."
"How about the sperm cell?" The doctor asked.
"A friend of mine, he actually looks like me, I met him when I was abroad and I noticed a lot of similarities between him and me so... Yes," Irene answered then giggle when she almost falls due to dizziness.
Ms. Lee squints her eyes at her. "And how did you get this?"
"I asked him to be a donor, he agreed. About Lisa's egg cell... It's a secret!" Irene said like a kid and run towards the laboratory. "Faster! Come on!"
Ms. Lee sigh, she knows it's not safe to perform the IVF knowing that Irene's drunk and she probably won't remember this the next day, but oh well...
"Let's get this over with."
Irene came back to the party, smiling so wide which makes her friends cringe.
"Why are you smiling like you just got laid?" Wendy asked and pulled Irene down because she's still standing.
"Oh, what happened is better than that," Irene said and giggled as she pats her tummy.
"Here, you just need a drink." Seulgi handed her a glass of vodka but she shakes her head.
"It's not healthy for my angel," Irene said, now caressing her belly.
Seulgi groaned. "You're sick."
They just let her talk and caress her tummy as they continue to drink. Irene didn't drink something anymore other than water that night but a glass of champagne was handed to everyone when their senior walk up to the stage and did a small speech.
