A few days later.....

Jennie p.o.v.
After a day of works, works and works I finally came back home. Kai was already home, he didn't have much work today. I changed myself into comfy cloths and washed up. I decided to go to sleep asap but first I need to eat my dinner. Oh wait! I need to feed my baby as well. I think she must've fell asleep again. Poor baby! I opened the door of her room and she's not there? I should check the bathroom. What?! She's not even in the bathroom. I searched for her in every single room of the house. And she's not anywhere in the house?!

"KAI! KAI!!!" I shouted.

"What happened, baby? Why you shouting?!

"Where's my baby?"

"Oh Lilly? She must've been in her room."

"She isn't in her room. And she's nowhere in the house."

"Oh"

"Kai tell me honestly, did you pick up Lilly from school?"

Kai didn't said anything.

"Did you?" I asked again.

"Uh, no, sorry Jennie I forgot."

I just want to punch him in the face right now.

"How can you forget Kai? I gave you one responsibility and you couldn't do it properly."

"Baby, I'm sorry." Kai said as he tried to come near me.

"Don't baby me and don't touch me."

I decided to call the school authority.

"Hello?"

"Am I speaking to Mrs. Jung?"

"Yes, may I know who are you?"

"I'm Jennie Kim."

"Oh, Mrs. Kim I finally reached you. I have been trying to reach you for last two hours."

"I'm sorry. Is Lilly with you?"

"She was with me half an hour ago. Now she's not here anymore."

"Where is she?!"

"Well she was waiting for you to pick her up. But almost an hour ago, she suddenly fainted. I couldn't reach you. So I called her guardian Ms. Manoban instead. And surprisingly she came very first and she took her to the *** hospital."

"Thank you very much" I almost tear up.



I'm trying to reach Lisa's phone. But it's dead I think. I reached the hospital and I went to reception and they told me Lilly is in room no.237. I rushed there and I opened the door. I saw my baby is lying on the bed, eyes are closed. I saw Lisa as well. She is talking with the doctors. She saw me and didn't said anything. I went to Lilly.

"So I think you're Mrs. Kim, Lilly Kim's Mother?" A doctor said.

"Yes,I am."

"Well, your daughter fainted and I think it's because she has not been eating well and having less sleep."

"Oh"

"Yeah, she is still a baby. She needs someone to take care of her. I hope you understand." The doctor said and left.

I saw Lisa watching us talk and disappointment was all over her face. I thought she won't talk with me but at my surprise she did,

"Jennie, I thought you will be able to take care of Lilly. And you also said you know what's good for your daughter. Jennie I didn't said anything that day, cause I thought you will be able to be a good mother if you and Lilly are away from me. But today Jennie I want to say one thing, you're wrong. You can't take care of her. Do you even know what she hugged for 5 years to sleep? You don't know Jennie. It's not a teddy bear, it's me. She hugged me. Or she can't sleep. Do you know whenever she wakes up she needs to see me? Or she freaks out? Do you know how many times she called me in the midnight just cause I wasn't there? Also because you weren't there? Do you know at nights she gets hungry many times that she needs food right beside her bedside table? You don't know,Jennie. Do you know when she's mad what can melt her? Just give her ice cream and she will be in her happy self again. Do you know she can't even tie her shoes? Everyday she goes to school without tying shoe laces and her teacher scold her. You don't know anything about her Jennie. And you claim to know what's good for her?"

I couldn't say anything in reply. She was right. I can't even take care of my baby. I thought I gave her a good daddy. But I was wrong. Lisa was always there to be more than a daddy to my baby. And Kai can never replace Lisa. Actually, Kai is nothing like Lisa. Now, I regret losing Lisa. I left her and now she hates me.
