Stealing Your Heart

Seeing her trembling out of anxiousness, Lin Xinyan went over to hug her and pat her back. “I won’t ask you about this anymore.”

Lin Xinyan couldn’t bear to see her like this.

“I just don’t want you to have to bear this alone. If telling me makes you feel worse, I’d rather you not tell me.” Lin Xinyan could roughly guess what this was all about. By saying she can’t be considered a woman anymore, is she implying that there’s something wrong with her body?

But the doctor had never mentioned anything like this to her.

“I wasn’t afraid of you finding out.” Qin Ya hugged Lin Xinyan and buried herself in the latter’s embrace. “It’s so painful just to think about it.”

Every time she brought it up, her heart felt like it was being ripped apart again, filling her with a sense of helplessness.

“I can’t get pregnant again in the future. I’ll never have kids. Do you know how much I hate him? He caused me to become like this…”

Lin Xinyan was in disbelief. Why can’t she get pregnant again?

How can that be?

“How… How can this be? The doctor didn’t tell me anything about that. Could you have been mistaken? A miscarriage doesn’t mean that you can never get pregnant again…”

“I asked the doctor not to tell anyone. It’s true. My body isn’t normal anymore.” Qin Ya mustered up her courage to tell her the truth.

“How can this be?” Lin Xinyan asked hoarsely. As a woman, she knew how important being able to have children was.

“Did it affect your uterus…”

“No.” Qin Ya let go of her and wiped away the tears on her face. “I don’t have a uterus anymore.”
