Chapter Text

Kim Dokja was the reader of a story, a very precious story.
Within it he observed character's behaviours, achievements and downfalls.
It was his sole reason for living.
As if by fate, the novel he practically worshipped came to life.
So, as he survived through the scenarios, gathering companions as he went and using his own knowledge to his advantage, he was content.
It was a happiness he'd never felt before.
And from that happiness, sprouted love. Something so strong and beautiful, he hadn't realised it before he truly saw the purpose of his deep affection.
Yoo Joonghyuk.
Through the years he had read about that man, he'd lived to see him in his best moments and his worst. He remembered all his regressions and mistakes, as nobody else did.
It was the kind of yearning that ignited the moment his eyes looked down on that bright screen, at the words that could only describe a person among the strongest.
So now, as the world was in chaos, he finally realised his overwhelming feelings for the man.
...
"Kim Dokja-ssi, are you okay?" Yoo Sangah stared at him, a worried expression plastered on her face.
"I'm fine!"
The group was sat down in a circle eating meat skewers, which Yoo Joonghyuk had skillfully cooked.
"This is amazing!!" Lee Jihye exclaimed, as she proceeded to shove 2 more skewers down her throat.
"I do have to admit, your a great cook.." Jung Heewon said, nibbling on a skewer herself.
"I agree!" Lee Hyunsung added.
This was all Kim Dokja could ask for, his companions, side by side, eating together like a family.
They weren't just like it, they were family to him.
"I can't eat anymore.." Han Sooyoung sighed, patting her full stomach.
"Here Hyung, have another!" Lee Gilyoung beamed.
"No take mine!" Shin Yoosung looked up at him eagerly.
"Ahjussi wants mine, not yours bug boy!"
"I gave Hyung one first!!"
The two children continued to bicker.
"I'll take both of them!"
I took the two skewers in my hands and ate them both together.
Suddenly, in the peace of it all, a message appeared in front of him.
[A new hidden scenario has arrived]
+
[Hidden Scenario - Carry The Burden Of Love]
Category: Hidden Scenario
Difficulty: D
Clear Conditions: Carry the burden of love and try to find your desired outcome.
Time Limit: 10 months.
Compensation: 500,000 Coins, ???
Failure: ???
+
500,000 coins?! That was an incredible amount for a hidden scenario, considering it was low difficulty..
Kim Dokja clicked on the two options.
Yes
A message popped up shortly after.
[Desired Person : Yoo Joonghyuk]
[Collect DNA from desired person and consume it to continue in the 'Hidden Scenario']
This couldn't be too hard all I had to do was collect a hair sample or saliva..
Wait, I had the perfect idea!
I quickly grabbed some bread from the table and walked up to Yoo Joonghyuk, who was stood barbecuing some more skewers.
"Kim Dokja, what do you wa-?"
Before he could finish, I shoved the loaf into his mouth, forcing him to take a bite.
"Don't forget to eat while you make us food!" I smirked.
I yanked it away before he could take another bite, then ran off as I felt his furious gaze on my back.
I nibbled where he'd bit the bread and sat down.
[You have completed the required task!]
[The 'Hidden Scenario' will now begin!]
...
The scenario was not what I thought it would be at all.
It was the month after I'd started the 'Hidden Scenario' when it all began.
The Company and I were sat down, having dinner together as usual, when a wave of nausea flowed through me.
I quickly stood, covering my mouth, and ran off.
...
"What is wrong with you?!" Han Sooyoung nearly yelled as she saw the man, on his knees bending over a toilet.
"I don- egh!" I said, before emptying the contents of my stomach once again.
Han Sooyoung crouched down and patted the man in an unusually gently manner.
"I'll bring Lee Seolhwa, just wait here.." She said before hurrying off.
After waiting for 10 minutes, Lee Seolhwa arrived with Han Sooyoung, by the time they came the nausea had gone.
"Dokja-ssi do you mind if I examine you?" Lee Seolhwa smiled at the man.
"Sure.."
...
"This is really strange, I've never seen anything like this before.."
"How bad is it..?" Sooyoung asked.
"It's not necessarily a bad thing.. but i still don't understand how it happened?"
"What is it.."
"Dokja-ssi have you had any partners lately? Preferably men?"
"What do yo-?"
Why was she asking him that kind of question..
Kim Dokja was unfortunately a virgin of 28 years old.
"No.."
Han Sooyoung giggled beside him.
"I don't know how this happened, but your with child somehow" Lee Seolhwa stated.
The two looked at each other in equal confusion.
"But.. I'm a man..?"
Han Sooyoung's mouth was gaping open.
"You are about 1 month pregnant, I honestly don't know how though.."
[The 'fourth wall' has offset some of the mental shock]
"You might not want to tell the others but please try to, in the meantime I won't speak a word of it" Lee Seolhwa told them before she left the bathroom.
"I'm so confused right now, did you and that bastard have se-" Her mouth was covered before she could finish.
"We definitely did not! Why would I do that with.. him?!"
She moved his hand. "Don't try to fool me I know you're in love with him, you're so obvious.."
He turned pink.
"I'm not that obvious.. am I?"
"Not enough for that dense bastard to notice"
How did this happen? He was carrying Yoo Joonghyuk's child?
He had only realised his feelings recently, and now this!
The shock would've hit him like a freight train if it wasn't for the fourth wall..
"What do we do now?"
"I'm not sure, let's go back and talk about it later.." he replied.
As the two walked back, worries grew louder in Kim Dokja's head.
Was he going to be a good parent?
What if he was like his father?
He didn't want his child to suffer.
He was transported back to reality by the shouting of Han Sooyoung.
"Kim Dokja?!"
He suddenly felt numb, his surroundings becoming rapidly blurry and disorienting.
He felt himself fall onto something before he drifted out of consciousness.
