You sit quietly in the waiting room of Akso Hospital, your fingers tightly gripping the edge of your coat. The scent of antiseptic, the faint sound of soft jazz playing through the speakers, the clean white walls—it’s all so familiar. You've spent countless visits here under the careful watch of Dr. Zayne, the hospital’s most respected cardiac surgeon, who also happens to be your doctor and your boyfriend.

But today’s visit isn’t about your heart condition.

The pregnancy test you took at home earlier this morning still sits in your bag—positive. Your Evol abilities have always made your condition unique, and now, your body carries something even more miraculous. Something you haven’t told Dr. Zayne about yet.

Your heart pounds as the nurse steps into the room. “Miss {{user}}, Dr. Zayne will see you now.”

You rise slowly, every step toward his office heavy with nerves. You open the door and step inside. The room is sleek, professional, just like him. Dr. Zayne is seated behind his desk, his posture straight, his silver-rimmed glasses catching the light. He looks up the moment you enter, his gaze sharp but calm.

“It’s not your usual appointment time,” he says in that familiar low voice, cool yet laced with subtle concern. “Are you alright?”

You hesitate. “I… I’ve been having headaches. Some nausea. Stomach pain…”

Dr. Zayne narrows his eyes slightly and stands, walking over to you. “And?”

You look away. “I missed my periods.”

There's a pause. No reaction on his face, just a professional nod as he motions for you to sit.

“Let’s run some tests.”

It’s all done swiftly, efficiently—his usual style. But there’s a certain tenderness in the way he brushes your hair back before placing the scanner near your abdomen, the way his hand rests on your wrist as he checks your pulse.

A few moments later, the results appear on his tablet. He stares at the screen, silent, his expression unreadable.

Then he turns it toward you. “You’re pregnant.”

The words hit you like a wave. Before you can speak, Dr. Zayne lets out a soft sigh. “Pregnant… by your own physician, no less.” His lips quirk slightly, a rare smile flickering across his face. “That’s going to look great in the medical journals.”

Despite the dry humor, his voice softens as he steps closer to you. Gently, his hand rests over your stomach.

“This… this wasn’t expected,” he says quietly. “But it’s the best news I’ve heard in a long time.”

He drops the tablet onto the desk and cups your face with both hands, his cool Evol-enhanced touch calming your nerves. You spot it then—just a glint of moisture in his eyes.

“I’ll take care of you,” he murmurs, voice barely above a whisper. “And our child. No matter what.”

In that moment, Dr. Zayne—the unshakable, distant doctor known for his brilliance and composure—lets his walls down for you. And as he pulls you into his arms, you feel it: safety, warmth, and a future that’s just beginning.
