Short filmTranscript
00:00Christmas was coming. My husband was driving me home. I was eight months pregnant. Then,
00:08his phone rang. I couldn't help but ask,
00:11Who's been calling you frantically on Christmas Eve? He suddenly pulled the car over to the curb.
00:18Get out.
00:19What did you say? He stared straight ahead.
00:22The power tripped at my sister-in-law's house. She's alone and scared. I have to get over there
00:26and fix it for her. I couldn't believe my ears. Right then, his phone started ringing urgently
00:31again. Losing his patience, my husband threw open the car door and roughly dragged me out
00:38from the back seat. She's afraid of the dark and can't wait any longer. You're only eight
00:43months pregnant. Waiting on the highway for a bit won't kill you. Someone will pick you up in half
00:47an hour. I watched Brian's car speed away into the distance. My heart sank to rock bottom.
00:54Suddenly, a faint, sharp pain started blooming, making me break into a cold sweat. A car pulled
01:00over and the window rolled down. The female driver's eyes showed a flicker of concern.
01:04Are you okay? I think I'm going into labor. Damn it.
01:11The female driver metered a curse and quickly helped me into the car.
01:17Where is your husband?
01:18I had no answer for that. I was carrying Brian's child and was about to give birth,
01:24yet I wasn't as important as a power outage at his widowed sister-in-law's house.
01:29A total stranger cared more about me than he did. A sudden wave of pain hit me, and I gasped
01:35for air.
01:37Once the contraction passed, I pulled out my phone and dialed Brian's number. He hung up without a second thought.
01:45Once, twice, three times. On the 16th call, he finally picked up, sounding incredibly annoyed.
01:52What now? Shut up and wait. I told you to stop calling.
01:54It was quiet on the other end, but two seconds later, Chloe's voice drifted through.
01:59Brian, the power's still not back. I'm so scared.
02:02Hearing that, Brian lost all interest in listening to me. He just snapped.
02:07My men are almost there. Stay put and stop causing trouble.
02:09The words, I'm giving birth, got stuck in my throat.
02:13Suddenly, I felt a gush of warm fluid between my legs. My heart plummeted.
02:18The female driver tried to pull over right away.
02:22All lanes were completely stuck in traffic. Some drivers even blocked the emergency lane.
02:28Shit!
02:29But she turned to me and said,
02:30Don't worry, you'll be okay.
02:33Make way! A woman is in labor!
02:37But the long line of cars did not move at all.
02:40I tried to calm down and called Jake, Brian's right-hand man, if they cleared the road.
02:48Donna? What's wrong?
02:50Another sharp pain hit me hard. I gritted my teeth and tried to explain quickly.
02:55I'm in labor. We're stuck on the highway.
02:59Boss said you always fake it. Eight months can't be labor. Wait.
03:03Jake hung up the phone without any mercy.
03:06He hung up the phone without mercy.
03:08The pain was so bad, I could barely hold my phone.
03:13She jumped out and banged on every car door.
03:15Please make way!
03:17A pregnant woman is about to give birth!
03:19It's a matter of life and death! Please help us!
03:22I lay back on the seat and called Brian again.
03:26This was my last hope.
03:31His phone was off.
03:34I called again, but it was still off.
03:37Just as I lost all hope, horns blared outside.
03:41Windows rolled down.
03:43Make way ahead! Someone is having a baby!
03:45Drivers shouted together.
03:46Someone is having a baby!
03:51The emergency lane was finally cleared.
03:53The female driver slammed on the gas and sped forward at full throttle.
03:58We were only five minutes away from the highway exit when we got stuck again.
04:02She honked her horn non-stop, but the cars ahead didn't budge an inch.
04:06The contractions in my abdomen became more frequent and violent.
04:09Amniotic flouter mixed with blood dripping onto the car floor bit by bit.
04:14The pain was so intense I blacked out several times, barely forcing myself to wake up again.
04:20I was completely soaked in cold sweat.
04:23I couldn't even tell if I was conscious or just fainting from the agony.
04:26When I opened my eyes again, the female driver was arguing with a bystander.
04:31The emergency lane is for saving lives!
04:34You're going to kill someone by blocking it!
04:37Everyone is stuck here!
04:39If you're so brave, go rush the cars in front.
04:41Don't act tough with me, or I'll show you what's coming.
04:44Seeing him about to hit her, I endured the sharp pain and got out of the car to protect her.
04:53I'm really about to give birth.
04:54Please, give us a way through!
04:56Fresh blood stained the snow beneath me bright red.
04:59The man panicked, scrambled back into his car, and slammed the door shut.
05:04It's got nothing to do with me!
05:05Don't try to pin this on me!
05:07Everyone got out of their cars, knocking on windows one by one to convince others.
05:11This pregnant woman can't hold on much longer!
05:14She's in immediate danger!
05:16Have some heart and save a life!
05:18Everyone has family at home!
05:19A massive wave of pain hit me again.
05:22Every car ahead moved in unison, clearing the emergency lane.
05:26Some drivers were even willing to scratch their own cars just to pull over further and widen the path.
05:31The crowd carefully helped me back into the car.
05:36Don't be afraid!
05:37You'll reach the hospital soon!
05:39As the car started moving again, I couldn't help but cry as I thanked them.
05:45Thank you, everyone.
05:47The female driver comforted me softly.
05:49Saving you today is like leaving a path of survival for myself in the future.
05:54But after only two minutes of driving, a family enforcement vehicle cut us off and forced us to stop.
06:01Brian's right-hand man, Jake, stepped out of the car with a heavy scowl.
06:06You dare mess with the traffic on a road controlled by our family?
06:10You even caused multiple scratches and dents?
06:13The female driver tried to explain the situation, but Jake cut her off immediately.
06:18You women drivers are nothing but trouble.
06:20Sooner or later, we're going to ban you from the roads.
06:24The driver was furious.
06:25Before she could even argue back,
06:27She heard me let out a sharp scream.
06:31She rushed to wipe the cold sweat from my forehead.
06:34Just hang in there.
06:35We can reach the hospital in five minutes.
06:37Max!
06:38Jake stepped forward.
06:40When he saw it was me, a flicker of suspicion crossed his face.
06:44Sister-in-law?
06:45What are you doing here?
06:47I bit down hard on my finger, forcing myself to stay conscious.
06:51I'm giving birth.
06:53You guys need to...
06:54Halfway through my sentence, Jake's phone rang.
06:58Boss, we found Donna, but she looks like she's in labor.
07:01On the other end of the line, Brian's voice came through clearly, as cold as ice.
07:05She's just throwing a tantrum.
07:06Ignore her and let her stay there to reflect on her behavior.
07:12My head started spinning instantly, and the pain felt like it was tearing my body apart.
07:18After one last scream, my vision went black, and I completely lost consciousness.
07:23When I woke up again, I was already in the hospital.
07:27I only found out from the conversation of the nearby that I'd been resuscitated for a whole day.
07:32I slumped on the bed.
07:34The still unsettled stomach suddenly clampsed.
07:36I know the child is gone.
07:39Before I could even process the grief, Brian walked in.
07:42Behind him followed Chloe, looking like a victim with a pout on her face.
07:46Joy, you really love making a scene over nothing.
07:48Didn't you say you were giving birth?
07:49Well, where's the baby?
07:50Looking at his completely indifferent face, I let out a self-defecating laugh and stayed silent.
07:56Chloe gently patted her chest and shot me a casual dismissive glance.
08:00Joy, you really didn't need to do all this.
08:02Brian and I are completely innocent.
08:04Was it really worth making such a huge scene just to target me?
08:07Aren't you embarrassed?
08:08It was just a short power outage at my house.
08:10Did you really have to overreact like this?
08:13Embarrassed?
08:13I gripped the bedsheet so hard my nails nearly dug into my flesh.
08:16If giving birth to my husband's child is embarrassing,
08:19then calling someone else's husband to leave his pregnant wife just to fix a fuse is absolutely shameless.
08:25I know you giving birth is a big deal, but I'm a woman alone at home in the pitch lark.
08:29I was truly terrified.
08:31If Brian hadn't arrived in time, I would have, I would have to suffer in the dark all night.
08:35Yes, the power is fixed.
08:37Brian arrived just in time, so she no longer has to fear the dark.
08:39But I could no longer hold back my sorrow and anger.
08:43Grabbed the water cup on the table and hurled it fiercely at them.
08:46But I've lost my child! I'll never see him again!
08:49What do you mean the baby is gone?
08:50Don't say such cursed things on Christmas Eve.
08:52You really are unfit to be a mother.
08:54My poor child, you were supposed to be born amid everyone's expectations and embraced the warmth of this world,
09:00never even getting a chance to catch a glimpse of the world.
09:03I closed my eyes in utter despair, pointing tremblingly at the door.
09:06Get out!
09:08You're telling me to get out?
09:09Brian looked at me in disbelief.
09:11He grabbed my wrist with enough force to crush the bone.
09:14I set aside family business to come see you and this is the attitude I get?
09:18As he agitatedly moved, his collar shifted, revealed a faint red mark on his neck.
09:24The sight of it stung my eyes like a physical blow.
09:27Behind him, Chloe tugged at the corner of Brian's jacket.
09:29Brian, don't be like that.
09:31No matter what, Joy is still carrying your child.
09:35If you were even half as sensible as your sister-in-law, things wouldn't be this way between us.
09:40Physically and mentally exhausted, I had no strength left to argue.
09:43Just as I was about to lie back down to rest, Chloe stepped toward me.
09:47Joy, I know...
09:48Mid-sentence, she staged a trip and slammed her weight directly into my stomach.
09:53Chloe immediately assumed the role of the victim, collapsing onto the floor.
09:57Joy, why did you push me?
10:01Chloe, are you okay?
10:02His eyes were fixed solely on Chloe.
10:05He didn't even notice that I was too painful to even groan.
10:08I laughed bitterly in my heart.
10:09If the baby were still there, Chloe's deliberate collision would have been enough to cause a fatal rupture.
10:14Chloe sniffled, wiping away tears with a hurt expression.
10:17Brian, I'm fine.
10:19I was just so scared a moment ago.
10:21Brian was consumed with pity for her.
10:23Before he could offer more comfort, Chloe suddenly lunged at me again.
10:29Joy, why are you so vicious?
10:32I only asked Brian to help fix a fuse box?
10:35Did you really have to push me just because you're jealous?
10:38She grabbed my arms and shook me violently.
10:41Wincing in pain, I tried to push her away, but I was utterly drained of strength.
10:46I didn't do anything.
10:48Chloe repeated her old trick, suddenly throwing her body backward.
10:51Fortunately, Brian reacted quickly, catching her by the waist before she hit the ground.
10:56Brian, I'm going to help you by my side.
10:58I'm truly afraid to stay home alone.
11:00Leaning into his arms, her tears fell like rain.
11:03Brian whispered a few tender words to soothe her.
11:06After helping her into a chair, he turned to me with a face like thunder,
11:10grabbing me and dragging me straight out of the bed.
11:14My body hit the floor with a heavy thud.
11:16He ignored my fall, intent in dragging me toward Chloe.
11:20Joy, apologize to Chloe.
11:22He stopped mid-sentence as something finally registered.
11:24He whipped his head around.
11:26Only then did he realize.
11:27His face turned ghostly pale, and his voice began to tremble.
11:31Your belly, what happened?
11:33Where is the child?
11:34Then the door kicked open.
11:36The woman driver came in.
11:38She glared at Brian.
11:40The baby is gone!
11:42He died on the highway where you left her!
11:46Brian's hand shook.
11:47He stepped back again and again.
11:52No.
11:54This can't be.
11:55The female driver ignored him.
11:57She helped me get to bed.
12:00She pressed the call button.
12:03You just had a miscarriage.
12:04You're very weak.
12:05You need to rest.
12:07Brian never cared about me.
12:09Not once since he walked in.
12:11But this stranger helped me.
12:13She paid my hospital bill.
12:15She even took care of me all day.
12:17Warmth filled my heart.
12:19Tears fell from my eyes.
12:22I didn't know what else to say.
12:23She wiped my tears gently.
12:25It's okay.
12:26We're both women.
12:27We should take care of each other.
12:29Before she finished, Brian pulled her away from me.
12:31He stared at me.
12:32Joy, what are you playing at?
12:34Where is the baby?
12:35I didn't want to talk to him.
12:37I turned my head away.
12:38Chloe laughed coldly.
12:40You're so revengeful.
12:41Fine.
12:42You had the baby and didn't tell Brian.
12:44But now you're hiding the baby?
12:45You're so cruel.
12:46Brian squeezed my wrist tighter.
12:51I'm the father.
12:52I have a right to see my child.
12:54If you keep acting crazy, I'll divorce you.
12:56Brian had talked about divorce before.
12:58Many times.
12:59Always because of Chloe.
13:01In the past, I would get upset.
13:03I would apologize.
13:05I would beg him to forgive me.
13:07But this time, I just glanced at him.
13:10My voice was cold.
13:11Then let's get a divorce.
13:13Brian's body shook.
13:14He looked at me in disbelief.
13:17Do you know what you're saying?
13:19Of course, I knew what I was saying.
13:21Too bad Brian had no idea what he was doing.
13:23Forget it.
13:24For the baby's sake, I'll let it go.
13:26Just tell me where the baby is.
13:27Then I'll forgive you.
13:28The baby?
13:29If he really cared about the baby, my child wouldn't be a cold corpse.
13:32Every word he said stabbed my heart.
13:35I couldn't hold back my anger anymore.
13:37I slapped him hard across the face.
13:39The baby is dead.
13:40You have no baby.
13:41You'll never see him again.
13:43At first, Brian was shocked.
13:45Now he was really annoyed.
13:46Joy, my patience is running out.
13:48Stop lying to me.
13:49Where is the baby?
13:50Tell me and I'll forgive you.
13:51I won't divorce you.
13:53Chloe snorted next to me.
13:54To keep Brian from seeing the baby, you really are creative.
13:57Saying something so evil.
13:59Just then, a nurse walked in.
14:01She checked my face.
14:03She said my name.
14:05Joy, you just had a miscarriage.
14:07Before she finished, Brian grabbed her wrist.
14:10What did you say?
14:11What miscarriage?
14:13After learning Brian was the father, the nurse shot him a dirty look.
14:16She was in emergency surgery.
14:18You weren't there.
14:19She had a miscarriage.
14:20You weren't there.
14:21Now you come here acting like you care?
14:23The whole floor knew what had happened.
14:25No one had anything nice to say to him.
14:28But Brian didn't care about that now.
14:30He grabbed my hand tightly.
14:32Like I was his last hope.
14:34He looked at me like he was begging.
14:36Joy, tell me it's not true.
14:38You're just mad I left you on the highway, so you got them to lie to me, right?
14:41He thought too highly of me.
14:43Like I could get a whole hospital to lie.
14:46If you don't believe us, call your brother.
14:49He knows everything.
14:50When I was barely conscious, I heard the woman driver begging Jake on the highway.
14:55But Jake still thought I was faking.
14:57Don't be fooled by her.
14:59Our boss said she lies all the time.
15:01She's just jealous about the power outage.
15:03Now she's blocking the emergency lane.
15:06So embarrassing.
15:07The woman driver got mad.
15:11You've never given birth.
15:13Fine.
15:13You don't know what labor looks like.
15:16But are you blind too?
15:18Can't you see the blood on her?
15:20Maybe he saw blood.
15:22Jake finally woke up.
15:23He drove the family's car.
15:24He cleared the way.
15:25A five-minute drive took only three minutes.
15:28Right before I passed out,
15:29I heard the doctor sigh.
15:31The baby can't be saved.
15:34They said he was just one minute too late.
15:37The baby's heart had already stopped.
15:39If they got there one minute earlier,
15:41maybe the baby could have lived.
15:43And that minute was lost because of Brian's phone call.
15:46If he had just believed me,
15:48if he hadn't told Jake to stop me,
15:50the baby would have lived.
15:51Thinking about it made my heart hurt.
15:53I couldn't breathe.
15:56Brian was still fumbling about his phone.
15:59I looked at him coldly.
16:02I need an IV.
16:04Can you please stop bothering me?
16:06The nurse and the female driver warned him.
16:08The patient needs rest.
16:09Please leave now.
16:11Brian let go.
16:12His eyes were red.
16:14Joy, I'll come back when you're rested.
16:16When he turned around,
16:18I saw tears on his face.
16:19Maybe he was sorry.
16:21Maybe he was heartbroken.
16:23But to me, it didn't matter anymore.
16:26To let me rest,
16:27the woman driver left.
16:28She gave me her number so I could pay her back.
16:31I lay in bed.
16:32I watched the IV drip.
16:34My heart was dead.
16:35Maybe it was medicine.
16:37Maybe I was just too tired.
16:38I closed my eyes.
16:40I was almost asleep.
16:41Then I heard arguing outside.
16:43Brian, how can you blame me?
16:45Your baby's life mattered.
16:46But being scared of dark matters too.
16:49Having a baby?
16:50Every woman can do that.
16:52She's just useless.
16:54She couldn't even keep the baby alive.
16:56So in the end, was it still my fault?
16:59I found it so ironic.
17:01But it didn't matter what they thought.
17:03Once I got out of the hospital,
17:05I would divorce Brian immediately.
17:08Just as I thought that,
17:09I heard Chloe scream outside.
17:12Brian, you hit me?
17:14Chloe was Brian's sister-in-law.
17:17His brother lived overseas.
17:18But the year he came back,
17:19he got into a car accident.
17:21They couldn't save him in time.
17:23He died.
17:23Take care of Chloe.
17:25His last words were for Brian.
17:27After that,
17:28Brian was so good to her.
17:30He even bought her the house next door
17:31just to make it easy.
17:33We'd been married for years.
17:36He never cooked me one meal.
17:38But when Chloe said she was scared of the dark,
17:40scared of a power outage,
17:42he went running.
17:44At first, I felt a little bad,
17:46but I didn't think much of it.
17:48It was his brother's last wish.
17:51But Chloe got worse and worse.
17:55She'd walk around our house in her pajamas.
17:58She'd press herself against Brian.
18:01When I had a fever,
18:02she called him away because she was scared.
18:05I couldn't take it anymore.
18:07I said something a few times,
18:09but Brian always said I was jealous.
18:11She's my sister-in-law.
18:12Can you not be so disgusting?
18:14So Brian always did what she said.
18:17Maybe they were already together.
18:18I just never thought Brian would hit her.
18:21Brian sounded weak.
18:22Chloe, if you didn't cry about the blackout,
18:24I'd never leave Joy on the highway
18:25and she wouldn't lose the baby.
18:27You told me eight months was safe.
18:29Nothing would happen.
18:30Now my baby is gone.
18:32Gone!
18:33Dogs biting dogs,
18:34listening to them blame each other.
18:36I just felt sick.
18:38My IV was almost done.
18:40I reached for the call button.
18:42The noise outside stopped.
18:43Brian walked in, looking tired.
18:45There were five finger marks on his face.
18:48Chloe must have slapped him back.
18:50Before, I would have felt bad.
18:52Now I don't care.
18:53He saw me reaching for the button.
18:55He rushed over.
18:56Honey, don't move.
18:57Let me.
18:58Honey, that word used to be so sweet.
19:01Now it just made me sick.
19:03I frowned and moved away.
19:04I didn't want him touching me.
19:10Boss, I'm done.
19:12Abusing power, blocking the road, failing at my job.
19:15The family is kicking me out.
19:16I'm going to prison for a long time.
19:18I'm going to prison for a long time.
19:18All my friends are finishing for a long time.
19:19I'm going to listen to them soon.
19:19I'll be and I'm just going to keep waiting for the rest of the session.
