“Probably not.”

Although no one asked, he argues back more seriously than when he proved that fox beastmen are the worst race in all of life.

“Think about it, Hyukjin. It’s only been three weeks since you and I started a relationship. It is said that morning sickness usually occurs around the 4th to 5th week of pregnancy, but does it make sense that you are already losing your appetite?”

I continue to calm my trembling heart and continue speaking calmly.

“And I’ve told you many times that the probability of becoming pregnant between different species is similar to the probability of winning the lottery. Could it be that I was pregnant or something?”

My luck is very bad.

Even though I was just sitting at home and quietly drawing, people who wanted to disturb my peaceful life kept coming in, and when I played a gacha game for the first time in my life, I had to repeatedly hit the ceiling every time I drew.

You’re so unlucky that you end up pregnant on your first try? That sounds funny.

This is no different from throwing cabbage to a dog for it to chew on, and when the dog says it doesn’t eat it because it has no appetite, you say, ‘You’re pregnant.’

“Besides, every time we had sex, we made it so strong that it ruined the bed. Do you think the baby room can withstand that? If I were really pregnant, wouldn’t it be okay to miscarry?”

After gathering as much evidence as possible and making a confident claim, Hyukjin quietly closed his eyes as if he was lost in thought.

“Um…”

This guy is so worried he’s even drooling.

Hyukjin opened his eyes as if he had finished thinking, looked at the maid waiting next to the table, and ordered dessert.

“Is there a mango in the refrigerator? Please carve it and bring it to me.”

“I accept your command, master.”

The maid, who bowed her head, called the other maids and quickly started clearing the table, and I looked at Hyukjin with a puzzled look, who didn’t say anything.

Why didn’t he say anything? If Hyukjin had the personality, he would have said a few words, even as a joke.

Is there something up there? It’s so suspicious that I chose my favorite mango for dessert.

“What are you thinking?”

“What?”

“Because it’s strange that you’re quiet. It’s awkward for no reason because the person who would normally say something is quiet.”

I asked with suspicion, but Hyukjin shrugged his shoulders and answered as if there was nothing strange about it.

“If that’s you, then that’s probably the case. You can handle it well, so why should I interfere?”

“That’s true, but…”

When I heard the guy say he wouldn’t interfere, I felt a surge of regret.

Should I just tell them to interfere as much as they want? I know it was said out of consideration, but it wasn’t very good because it felt like the love had cooled down a bit.

While I was contemplating whether to say that or not, the maid came back and put a fresh yellow mango down on the table, and I picked up a piece of the mango and put it in my mouth to control my emotions.

…It tastes strange.

It’s not the mango flavor I know.

Why does a seemingly fresh mango taste so stale?

The bitter and sour taste felt much stronger than the sweet taste, so I felt like I wanted to spit it out right away.

Hehe.

In the end, I spat out the mango piece due to the nausea welling up inside me, and said to Hyukjin with a frown.

“This tastes a bit strange.”

“What?”

“It looks a little spoiled, doesn’t it? The bitter and sour taste feels too strong.”

“That can’t be right, just wait.”

Hyukjin tilted his head and stabbed a piece of mango with a fork and put it in his mouth.

The guy who was savoring the mango with a serious attitude soon frowned.

After all, it’s spoiled, right? Isn’t my mouth weird?

I looked at him with a bit of anticipation, but the words that came out of Hyukjin’s mouth were.

“It’s a very sweet and fresh mango. I don’t know who gave it to me as a gift, but I’ll have to thank you later.”

It was completely contrary to my thoughts.

Was only the part I ate spoiled by bugs? I was that unlucky bitch?

That can’t be possible. If this isn’t a spoiled mango, Hyukjin must have a strange tongue!

I tried to eat another mango while denying it, but it only made me more nauseous and it was no different from before.

…Is she really pregnant like the maid said?

Not yet. I wasn’t mentally prepared.

What if I check it and find out it’s real? My mom clearly said that she wouldn’t let me if I got into an accident.

I quietly stood up from the chair, barely suppressing the nausea that rose up in me.

“I’m feeling stuffy, but I’ll come back after getting some fresh air.”

“Would you like me to follow along with you? Can you go out alone?”

“Yeah… It’s okay. Because I want to be alone.”

And after forcing myself to ignore Hyukjin, who was looking at me with a puzzled expression, I slowly walked out of the mansion.

—–

A pharmacy that Hyukjin secretly visited alone.

I approached the pharmacist with trembling steps and spoke carefully.

“Hey, hey…”

“Yes?”

Is this what it feels like when you try to buy condoms at a convenience store?

When I actually stood in front of the pharmacist, I couldn’t stop talking, and all I could do was blush and lower my head in shame.

A customer who, at first glance, seems like the truth, or rather, can just be said to be the truth.

However, the pharmacist lady sighed and moved towards the display shelf, as if she had been through this situation many times.

“I think I know what the young lady is looking for. Just wait a moment.”

“Yes? Yes…”

As I was twisting my hair like that, the pharmacist lady held out the product to me and opened her mouth with a warm smile.

“I don’t know which one is better, but I hope there are good results anyway. And the product must be used immediately after opening to obtain results…”

It was a kind pharmacist who explained various things and gave good advice, but for me, whose shame had already reached its limit, it actually became poison.

“Thank you. The money is here! You can take all the change with you!”

In the end, I paid the money and ran out of the pharmacy, breathing heavily.

“Haa… Haa… I thought I was going to die of shame, really…!”

If the pharmacist lady didn’t have good sense, wouldn’t she have been humiliated at the pharmacy?

It was Miss who said goodbye instead of letting it go quickly, but in any case, it saved me some of the shame, so I expressed deep gratitude to the pharmacist lady in my heart.

Thank you, ma’am. Next time I go, I’ll buy at least one more vitamin. I don’t know if there will be anything to do in the future.

After bowing my head in the direction of the pharmacy, I glanced at the pregnancy test in my hand.

I have mixed feelings.

What if I use this and it turns out I’m really pregnant? How should I see Mom and Dad, and what should I say to Hyukjin’s parents?

“Ahh…”

I think as I groan from the pounding headache.

Okay, let’s give it a try. There’s no way I could have gotten pregnant because I’m so unlucky, right?

It’s just that I’m not feeling well because of what happened yesterday. I just didn’t have an appetite because the breakfast menu was a meal that I didn’t like.

After taking a deep breath to calm my pounding heart from fear, I stuffed the pregnancy test into my pocket.

“Let’s think positively! If you get pregnant, you can just stamp the marriage certificate right away! If you didn’t do it, that’s fine!”

After strengthening my spirits, I arrived at the mansion, and the fox god with a sinister smile on her face welcomed me warmly.

“I heard about what happened at breakfast. You said you had leftover rice because you had no appetite?”

“Don’t think strange things. Because it’s not what you think.”

“Hehe… Are you saying that she had some kind of delusion? She was just worried about your physical condition.”

“You have a big smile on your face. Is that the face of someone who is worried? If you’re going to lie, make it a little more believable.”

Seeing the fox god already burning up the circuit, I can’t help but sigh.

It may be fun for you, but it’s quite difficult for me. If this happens, there’s no point in giving me time.

We gave each other time to go through what we had to go through and think carefully about marriage, but within a week, she showed up pregnant? What would my sister think of me?

I glared at the fox god and growled in a wary manner.

“Don’t follow me, if I do, I will do whatever it takes to make you a Buddha.”

“I had no intention of doing that. This person is also quite busy. I hope you don’t think of my wife as the same person as you.”

joy.

The fox god turned into a ghost, snorted and disappeared somewhere, and I ran into the bathroom to see who would see me and took out a pregnancy test.

“…I guess I should use it soon.”

Feeling tremendous tension, I slowly read the instructions written on the back with trembling eyes.

And after going through all the procedures as written in the manual, I started waiting for the results to come out.

Now 3 minutes until the results come out.

I squatted down on the floor and gently closed my eyes.

“It’s okay to get pregnant, it’s okay to not get pregnant.”

It doesn’t matter either way. Both have their own pros and cons.

In fact, being pregnant may have more advantages. First of all, it means that I can keep Hyukjin completely mine.

“If you think about it this way, it might be better to get pregnant, right? Hmm…”

I giggled while thinking nonsense, and before I knew it, 3 minutes had passed and the results came out on the test machine. After checking the results, I ran to Hyukjin’s room.

Da da da da!

Jump up!

Hyukjin frowns when he opens the door without knocking.

However, after confirming that the person who opened the door was me, he quickly relieved his frustration and smiled broadly.

“What is going on, so urgent? Has it come into heat?”

“No, it’s more urgent than being in heat.”

Avoiding the curious boy’s gaze, I showed him the pregnancy test with two lines clearly engraved on it that I had hidden behind my back.

“I think we’re screwed, Hyukjin.”
