### Summary
The celebratory atmosphere following the safe birth of their child, Cha Cha, is immediately extinguished by a new, emotionally charged crisis. The chapter pivots to a tense vigil as Wooyoung fails to wake up after the delivery, presumably due to anesthesia. The narrative focuses on a distraught Kyungju at his partner's bedside, consumed by guilt and self-reflection over his past behavior. In a moment of desperation, he tearfully pleads with the unconscious Wooyoung, "If you're punishing me for back then... you can stop now," viewing the situation as karmic retribution. This scene is intensified by dramatic irony, as Kyungju's heartfelt declaration that Wooyoung "never lies" is immediately contradicted by reader recollections of Wooyoung's history of deception. The overwhelming sadness and tension build throughout the chapter, with many readers expressing their heartbreak over Kyungju's anguish and the delayed family reunion. The narrative concludes on a sharp cliffhanger, offering a sliver of hope as Wooyoung finally shows a sign of movement, leaving the couple's fate hanging in the balance.
