Serendipity

Family

T.w. Mentions fertility related terms, treatments, and other medical terms related to IVF. Also mentions a few other triggering medical possibilities.

1st September, Joana’s apartment:

"It would be better if you guys sit down for this one." Yoongi said with an unreadable tone and expression.

“What do you mean Yoongi-ssi? What are these documents for?” the Knight asked cautiously.

“It seems like the princess made some 'extraordinary' donation. The letter and the contract attached together are to confirm that she is writing off any claims on the said donation and it seems she has signed it as well. And the second letter served as a reminder for her to submit this contract to the receiving party and it also mentions they have made a partial use of that donation.” Yoongi tried explaining, as calmly as possible. His breath was getting shallower as he was getting towards the center of the issue.

The prince smiled gently. Seemingly unbothered by the declaration. He commented, shaking his head fondly,

“Typical Jo. It’s okay hyung. She never cared about the money anyway. I knew she would definitely donate all of her money into some charity. Although, I am glad they used it for a good cause. Minhyuk-ssi, I would personally like to thank them and contribute some more.”

“That is not possible, Kook. It is not a materialistic donation. It is a biological one.”

“Like her research samples?” Minhyuk asked.

“No, her own medical ones...” Yoongi said awkwardly.

“Like blood or body parts?” Kook questioned next worriedly.

"Umm...” Yoonhi inhaled deeply, “She has donated her eggs.”

“Eggs? Did you know she owned a poultry or something, Minhyuk-ssi?” Kook asked the Knight.

“Stop it Kook… It's not that… Pfft…She has donated her own eggs, as in 'ovum'. 'Female reproductive cells' as the contract mentions. It is something out of which a baby can be born if fertilised by a sperm. She has donated it to some person named Dr Kim Taehyung. Who might be one of her colleagues, as the letters are posted in the same institute’s envelopes where she used to work. It could be for research purposes, at least I hope.” Yoongi said in a stretch, being frustrated with his inability to explain.

There was a brief silence for a minute or two. But soon the prince bounce out of the couch and almost shouted, “Then what do you mean they have used the donation partially?” 

“The letter says, the person mentioned have sent the eggs for ‘in vitro fertilization’ and might forward them for ‘implantation’ if they get a strong ‘embryo’ out of the given samples. I don't exactly know what the technical terms mean, but I am sure they are probably making a human out of it.” Yoongi stated, calculating.

"You mean to say, there could be a little Jo in the making?" Kook asked lowly, sinking in the couch, while in process. 

Yoongi exhaled and said, "I guess so…"

Next day, at Dr. Kim Namjoon’s fertility clinic:

“And now we wait.” Dr Kim said.

“Wait? How long?” The curious scientist questioned.

“A week or so. But it all depends. If her hormone levels are low, we might have to wait some more for chemical confirmation of pregnancy. But the actual evidence of pregnancy we might get after four weeks. We could do a sonogram then. We might not get a clear picture at that point, but at least we would know that the embryonic sack has attached itself to the uterus successfully. It would still be considered as an embryo, till it is a few weeks old. The first trimester could be tricky. So I would say we don’t get our hopes too high. We could get two healthy embryos out of this batch, so we would be hoping for at least one of them to implant. Hey, are you nervous Taehyung?”
