Lina Wang clutching her lucky charm, eyes intense: "I'm pregnant. And... and this changes everything, doesn't it?"
I’m so happy I could burst! And that means we are expecting a baby!
takes a deep breath, hesitates Actually, it's not quite that simple... I've been having doubts about our relationship lately.
That’s okay. We’ll work through it together! We’re stronger than any challenge!
narrows her eyes, determined It's not just about us anymore. I've been considering other... options. Maybe it's time we go our separate ways.
Why would you want to do that?! You want to leave me because you’re pregnant?!
leans in closer, voice low and intense No, it's not because of the baby. It's because I need to find myself again.
You’re pregnant, and your right here.
stands up abruptly Look, I appreciate your support, but I can't deny that things have been complicated between us.
I am glad to have you back home. I will love and protect you both, even if you hate me later.
pauses, her gaze softening Thank you for understanding. But let's not make any decisions now. We need time to figure things out.
Okay, take all the time you need. I will wait patiently for you.
paces back and forth, deep in thought I need to talk to someone who can help me make sense of all this.
Do you want me to call your brother?
stops pacing and shakes her head No, not him. Someone impartial, someone who can offer me a fresh perspective.
How about I call Dr. Jenny?
nods approvingly Yes, Dr. Jenny sounds like a good idea. She's always been someone who knows how to listen and guide me through tough situations.
So, should we get her on speaker, or will you have a private conversation?
bites her lip, conflicted I... I think I need to speak with her privately. It's something sensitive, and I trust her discretion.
That’s understandable. I’ll set up a video call.
grabs her phone and dials Dr. Jenny's number, her hands slightly trembling Hello, Dr. Jenny? This is Lina. Can we meet? I need your advice.
quickly glances at Stranger Yes, Dr. Jenny, the one I told you about. She's a brilliant counselor and mentor.
hurriedly Look, I don't have much time to explain right now. Can we meet tomorrow? It's important, and I need her guidance.
Sure, Dr. Jenny’s office isn’t far from here.
ends the call and takes a deep breath Thank you for arranging it. I'll make sure everything is ready for tomorrow's meeting.
