Chapter 7: SHOCKED HANEUL
"DOCTOR, is it safe for our Haneul to manifest as an Omega at this age?" Park Eunji asked the gentle-looking doctor in front of her with worry.
"Don't worry, Haneul's mom. There's absolutely nothing dangerous with Haneul manifesting at 18," the doctor said with an understanding smile. "Although it's more common for someone to manifest as an Omega at 15 or 16, it's not rare for it to happen in their late teens."
Park Eunji breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that. She had already experienced this when Haeun manifested as an Alpha when the other turned 14, which happened just last year. But this time was more nerve-wracking.
Last year, Haeun only exhibited a slight fever. If she wasn't at school at the time and if her teacher wasn't an Omega who smelled her pheromones, it would be hard to tell that she was actually in the middle of manifestation. Unlike what happened today where Haneul was almost burning up, even fainting on the spot. There was also the worrying factor that his age was a bit older than the normal age-range where one manifested as an Omega.
Honestly, Park Eunji couldn't understand how she and her husband, who were both Betas, gave birth to children that manifested as an Alpha and an Omega. But they were still her children. She would still love them, whatever their secondary genders might be. The only thing she wanted was for them to be safe and healthy.
"As a precaution, we advised for him to stay at the hospital for a week," the doctor added. "It's so we could monitor if the changes in his body would have any adverse effect on him. He could also take this time to adjust to these changes."
"Alright, doctor. I understand. But please do everything you can to make our Haneul as comfortable as possible while he's here."
"Don't worry, Haneul's mom. We won't let Haneul experience any discomfort during his stay."
Haneul was actually worried at first that the accident might still happen. But then he realized that the road from the hospital to the training camp differed from the road taken if they came from their house. Aside from that, the time his father and Haeun left the hospital was also much advanced compared to the time when the accident happened.
But still, his worry was only put to rest when he heard his mother say that his father and Haeun safely arrived at the location of the training camp.
He actually wanted to check if the same accident had happened again and if there's a new victim or victims. Since his family no longer drove on that intersection, it's possible that another person or people ended up being hit by that truck.
But his brain couldn't think of that right now. At this moment, his only worry was the large amount of information that flooded his mind earlier.
Haneul took a deep breath and began to slowly digest all that information.

Additional info:
In Korea, adults often address each other using their child's name followed by a kinship term, such as "mom" (eomma) or "dad" (appa). For instance, if a child's name is Minjun, parents might be called "Minjun's mom" (Minjun-eomma) or "Minjun's dad" (Minjun-appa). This practice is common among parents and extends to professionals like doctors and teachers, reflecting the cultural emphasis on family and relationships. ^^
