Si woo
I saw it happen in slow motion.
Ye Jun was walking away from me, one hand on his big pregnant belly, the other dragging the small duffel bag. He was still so angry, still crying, still shouting at me even as he moved toward the door. I grabbed his wrist, not hard, just trying to stop him. But he yanked his hand free so fast that his whole body twisted the wrong way.
His foot missed the first step.
Everything inside me turned to ice.
"Ye Jun!" I screamed.
His eyes went wide with terror. For one second, I saw pure fear on his face. His free hand flew to his round belly, trying to protect the baby. His body turned awkwardly because the heavy bump threw off his balance. He tried to grab the railing but he was too slow. The weight of the baby pulled him forward.
He fell.
The sound of his body hitting the stairs made my heart stop.
"YE JUN!"
