Chapter 4 Secret Baby

"Here sis, I was ordered by my boss to give you this gift," said the man who was an OB at the hotel where Cylin was staying for the night.

The man handed Cylin the package he was carrying. Cylin was naturally confused, not understanding what the gift meant. The woman also asked with a puzzled look on her face. "Excuse me, what is this for? And who is your boss, do I know him?"

"My boss is the owner of this hotel, sis, he said you came with a sad face like after crying, so my boss took the initiative to give this gift, consider this as your welcome as a new visitor here, as for your last question, I don't know because I was just ordered to give this to you, please accept it, sis." Cylin immediately looked at the package she had not received after hearing the explanation from the man in front of her.

Cylin was a bit suspicious, but his explanation made sense, so she accepted the package with a small smile. "Thank you, I'd like to thank your boss as well," she said.

"Yes, sis, if you'll excuse me."

Cylin nodded, but at the same time as the man in front of her turned to leave, Cylin's stomach suddenly churned as if something wanted to come out of there.

"Huek!"

As soon as Cylin covered his mouth, the OB Hotel man in front of him suddenly stopped him from leaving. "Uh, are you okay?"

Cylin shook his head, trying to hold back something that felt like it wanted to come out of his mouth. "Sorry, I went in first."

Brak!

After saying those four words, Cylin immediately slammed the apartment door shut. It was not that she was rude, it was just that Cylin did not want her to spill her guts in front of the OB man at the hotel.

"Huek!" Cylin's body felt weak after she made it to the bathroom, but in fact nothing came out of her mouth, just clear liquid. The woman's head immediately felt dizzy.

"This must be the effect of my pregnancy," Cylin muttered, leaning limply against the tightly closed bathroom door as she stroked her flat stomach.

For some reason, after finding out she was pregnant, Cylin always felt like stroking her belly. "I hope I don't have any weird cravings after this."

"Don't bother your mommy here, baby," Cylin continued to whisper softly as she stared at her belly, as if she was talking directly to her future baby and the baby could hear what she was saying.

Feeling better, Cylin left the bathroom to go back to her room and rest her body, which felt very tired. She had just taken a taxi and was sitting around.

Cylin reached for the package that was on the bed. She decided to open it because she was curious about the contents.

"Oh, snacks, how nice of the hotel owner." Cylin took one of the chocolate items in the package.

The woman ate it quietly before her brow furrowed again as she remembered what the cleaner had said earlier. "Who is the owner of this place? How could he be so kind to give me this, and how did he know I was sad? Did he see it himself?"

****

The next morning, Cylin prepared to leave the hotel she had booked for one night only, and would later look for an apartment outside of New York City to stay in indefinitely.

Having finished everything and feeling that nothing was left behind, Cylin immediately left the hotel room he had stayed in last night.

The sound of the suitcase wheels rubbing on the floor filled the hotel corridor, which was quite quiet, probably because there were only a few people staying on the same floor as Cylin.

Both of the woman's hands carried the suitcase, while one of her shoulders also held a sling bag that she had not forgotten to carry.

Cylin paused for a moment, picking up the cell phone she had been using since last night to look at the clock. "It's still six o'clock, where am I supposed to have breakfast?" she muttered before continuing her steps until she stopped at one of the elevators.

Ting!

It didn't take long for Cylin to reach the ground floor, she decided to have a breakfast of bread and milk, which she would buy at the nearest grocery store to save money.

But just a few steps away from the elevator, unexpectedly from Cylin's right side, there was a middle-aged woman walking towards Cylin while concentrating on the cell phone in her hand. Cylin, who was focused on the front, didn't notice until she felt someone hit her.

Bruk!

Either because of how hard the middle-aged woman hit Cylin, or because Cylin was still weak from not having breakfast, the woman was unsteady and ended up falling to the ground, fortunately the two suitcases she was carrying did not fall and hit her.

"Tsk! If you go the right way, sis!" It wasn't Cylin who clucked and got angry, but the middle-aged woman who hit Cylin, and the middle-aged woman looked fine without falling like Cylin.

Cylin looked up before slowly getting to her feet, though her tailbone was a little sore. "Sorry auntie, I was going the right way, you were just walking and playing with your phone so you didn't see anyone in front of you," Cylin replied, a little provoked but still polite.

"How can you blame me!"

Cylin leaned back slightly as she received the jolt, which surprised her quite a bit. Somehow the woman's heart felt sensitive, even her eyes were now glazed over by the shock of a stranger. Cylin was not the type to get carried away easily. Maybe it was because of her pregnancy.

"It's not my fault, Auntie! You're the one who walked while playing with your cell phone and rushed when I walked normally!" So Cylin got carried away and raised her voice. Without realizing it, there were already several pairs of eyes in the hotel lobby focused on her and the middle-aged woman who had bumped into her.

"Kids these days are starting to be rude to their elders! Didn't your parents teach you any manners that you dare to push me around?"

Immediately Cylin's face turned red from holding back her anger, she accepted that her parents had raised her, even though they had kicked her out of the house. "Watch your language, Auntie! Don't bring up my parents!"

"Sorry ma'am, sis, don't make a scene here, please go outside to solve your personal problems," said a hotel employee who suddenly interrupted the argument between Cylin and the foreign woman who had hit her.

Cylin snorted rudely at the clerk and the middle-aged woman in front of him before he stalked off without permission, to hell with politeness, Cylin was already filled with anger and didn't want to make the atmosphere even more tense, so he better get out of there.

"Hiks... how come I'm such a nag?" Cylin unexpectedly let out a small sob after he was outside the hotel area.
