After coming back from the market, I sat on the sofa for a long time, took out my phone and dialed a number.

"Who is that?"

The call went through quickly, I said, "Captain, this is Kevin."

"Kevin? Do you change the number?"

"Yep, something is not convenient." I answered.

"Oh, well." The captain didn't ask more about that. "So why are you calling me?"

"Nothing serious. I just want to know, how about that burglary I followed up on before I left?"

Obviously, the captain was also worried about that, "He ran away and hasn't been caught yet, but according to the information provided by the informant, he should still be in Carson City."

The bad feeling in my heart welled up again, "Are you sure?"

"In the early morning of the day before yesterday, someone saw a man who looked like him in Sunshine Community. We got the surveillance video out and found that it was indeed him from the size and walking style. But when we went there, he had left."

Sunshine Community? This was the place where I lived now.

"By the way, I remember you seem to live in there." The captain said.

"Well," I said, "I live right here."

The captain was silent for a while, then said, "Kevin, are you worried about something?"

Now that I made this call, I was not trying to hide anything, so I said, "If my guess is correct, he will come to me."

The captain did not ask me why I had such a guess, but said, "I'll send some policemen to keep watching."

After I hung up the phone, I took a deep breath. I had to admit the fact I was scared.

As a member of the elite special forces, I was a bit more unscrupulous in handling cases. To track down the suspect's hiding place, I made a little use of his family, so he hated me. A arrested suspect had escaped, but did not leave this locality, I could think of no other reason than revenge.

If it was before, the word "fear" had nothing to do with me, but now, I looked at my slightly rounded belly, I had to think about it.

In the following days, I stayed at home and did not go anywhere. Occasionally, I would lift the curtains and look downstairs, and I would see two acquaintances hanging around downstairs for a short time. Then another two people continued to keep watching here.

Ten days passed in this way, Dr. Sun called me to the hospital for an examination, but unexpectedly, I met Jason again in the hospital.

This morning, after taking the blood, I went to Dr. Sun's office for a fetal heart monitoring.

Dr. Sun asked me as he searched for a position on my belly with a cold instrument, "Have you felt fetal movement when getting up in the morning recently?"

I recalled, shaking my head, "No, what's the problem?"

"It's okay, don't be nervous." Dr. Sun said with a smile, "Fetal movement can be felt as early as 16 weeks, but some people can't feel that until 20 weeks. Besides, this is your first pregnancy, and you'll have to be slow about it. The next one will be better."

Hearing that, I was embarrassed, as a man, it was hard to be pregnant. I really did not want the second baby.

"These days, especially when you wake up in the morning, don't get up so quickly. Just lie down and feel it." Dr. Sun said, "You can touch it properly or pat it gently to see if he gives you a response."

I was a little more embarrassed, "Well, what feeling should I have when there is a fetal movement?"

Dr. Sun was also embarrassed to smile, "Now you are asking me? I have never been pregnant, so I have no idea. But according to some women who have had a baby, the earliest fetal movement is like a small fish swimming in your belly. Others said this was a very subtle feeling, like the wings of a butterfly, you should feel it with your heart."

"Well, that sounds interesting." I said.

Dr. Sun hissed with his finger on his mouth, "Listen."

I just heard the noise in the instrument gradually changed into a regular heartbeat.

It was not the first time I had heard it, but every time I heard it, I would get a different feeling.

This was my baby, whose heartbeat, like mine, was strong.

I covered my eyes with my arm and laughed softly. All my grievances and worries were gone, leaving only happiness and deep satisfaction.

"He's very healthy," Dr. Sun said, "listen to his heart beating so strong."

"Yes, I hear that."

After the examination, Dr. Sun sent me to take a taxi. And he still told me, "The result will come out in a few days and I will send you to your home at that time. Try not to go out. What's more, eat carefully, don't eat cold and spicy, drink more water, eat more fruits and vegetables, less sugar. When you sleep at night, just cover yourself with the quilt in case you catch cold. When you wake up in the morning, you can lie in bed for a little longer and then get up. Oh, by the way, you must have breakfast, but not too greasy. Do not stay up late, play less phones and computers, this is the time when you are easily short-sighted......"

"Kevin." A voice interrupted Dr. Sun's murmuring.

I suddenly turned around and saw Jason standing two or three meters behind me.

He was standing there in his simple T-shirt and jeans, with his hands in his pockets, staring glumly at me.

I was stunned, "Why are you here?"

The first thought in my head was that he just heard something, I glanced at Dr. Sun, but Jason suddenly strode to me, grabbed my hand, and said to Dr. Sun, "I have something to talk to him."

Then he took me to the next stairwell. Dr. Sun shouted after him, "Don't pull him like that..."

Hearing that, Jason pulled me harder, and I could not get rid of him, so I covered my belly.

I was pulled down a flight of stairs by him, really couldn't walk any more, so I shouted, "Jason, let me go."

Jason stopped his footsteps, and I took the opportunity to shake off his hand, holding the railing to sit down. He turned and looked down at me, his eyes full of sorrow.
