"Dang," Doha muttered as he listened in on their conversation. "Zeno's too straightforward."
Minji was also unsure of his question. However, it seemed Raya had fully immersed herself in this emotion, so she responded honestly.
"I do," she answered.
"So, why didn't you leave?" Zeno asked, pressing on.
A small smile played on her lips. "I might regret my marriage, but I don't regret what came with it."
"My son…," she trailed off before shaking her head. "Let's just say that my marriage is one of the reasons why I'm able to keep the most important aspect of my life safe."
"Sometimes," she continued, snapping back to her professional self, "we need to sacrifice some things in order to keep some things."
"I wish the world wasn't like that, but it is. So, humans have no choice."
Minji focused her gaze on her lap, nodding in agreement.
"Anyway," Raya chimed with a smile. "Why don't we do an ultrasound for Mindy?"
Minji froze and squeezed Zeno's hand.
