Gyeong-Su smile and accept the flower. “Thank you..” Gyeong-Su said. He then look around, and he find the one he’s been looking for. “Jae-Hwan ah!!!” Gyeong-Su shout Jae-Hwan quickly turn his head and wave to Gyeong-Su, he then leave the girl that’s been holding into his hand for a while. “Why you just show up now, I’m so sick if someone already clinging like that...I said that I can’t accept her heart but then she cried and keep holding my hand...” Jae-Hwan mumbling. “Isn’t she pretty...I heard she’s really into you since last year..” Gyeong-Su turn his head back to see the girl. “No one is pretty... I’m sure you have something in your eyes..you keep commenting this one pretty that one pretty..every girl are pretty for you..” said Jae-Hwan Gyeong-Su laugh, “Of course...every girl born in this world are pretty. What makes it different is that they are pretty, prettiest and the most prettiest... the 2 last category only own by 3 people in my life...” said Gyeong-Su. “Who are they?” ask Jae-Hwan. “Prettiest are eomma and eomoni..” Gyeong-Su mention his mom and Jae-Hwan mom. “Waaahhh you really are annoying for telling me that...if my mom hear that she definitely will kick out my name from the family registry and change it into you..” said Jae-Hwan hug Gyeong-Su shoulder. Gyeong-Su only smile hearing that, since his mom died, Lee Mi-Na replace her for Gyeong-Su. And Gyeong-Su really thanked her that he never loose a mom’s love since Mi-Na replace her mom spot for him. “Then who the most prettiest?” ask Jae-Hwan Gyeong-Su thinking whether he should tell the answer to Jae-Hwan or not. “It’s a secret...” said Gyeong-Su. “Is it Ji-Yeon noona??? She always make us tell her that she looked pretty...” Jae-Hwan try to guess. “Why should I think about noona...she is pretty but she’s not the most prettiest for me” said Gyeong-Su.   The graduation ceremony finally over, Gyeong-Su already took picture too. He is now waiting for the one he’s been waiting. “Oppaaaaa!!!!” little girl with red dress running with a bouquet flower in her hand. “There she is my most prettiest” Gyeong-Su whisper to himself, he smiled and open up his arms to welcome her. “Be careful!!!” Gyeong-Su warn her. “Ehehehehe... this one for you..” Ji-A hand him the bouquet, “Eomma bought this for you but I choose the flowers..” she continue. “Then this must be very special since Baek Ji-A personally choose these flowers for me..” Gyeong-Su accept the bouquet, “thank you..” said Gyeong-Su. “Ya babydoll, where is my flower?!” Jae-Hwan show up and poke on Ji-A head. “Iissshhh stop calling me that name...I’m not a baby and I’m not a doll!!” Ji-A irritated by Jae-Hwan. “Then what should I call you? Gangster?” Jae-Hwan keep on teasing her. “I will tell appa that you keep disturbing me..” Ji-A threat her brother. “Do you know that Gyeong-Su has secret?” Jae-Hwan talk to Ji-A. “What secret?” Ji-A look at Gyeong-Su. “Nothing..” Gyeong-Su smile at Ji-A. “He has someone that he consider the most prettiest...and its not Ji-Yeon noona..” said Jae-Hwan. Ji-A paused and she look at both of them, “Stupid...” Ji-A said to Jae-Hwan. “What?!! What do you mean by that... calling me stupid...” Jae-Hwan offended. “It’s me... how can Ji-Yeon eonnie prettier than me?!! I’m the prettiest ever!!” Ji-A said in confidence. Jae-Hwan and Gyeong-Su laugh very hard to see Ji-A reaction, “Come oppa. Just leave that nerd...” Ji-A linking her arm on Gyeong-Su then walk with him. “It’s me right??? If you have other girl with that title you’re dead in my hand!!” Ji-A said to him in low tone affraid Jae-Hwan will overheard it. Gyeong-Su laugh, “I got it... let’s just give that title to you then...” said Gyeong-Su. “YA!!! Wait for me!!!” Jae-Hwan shout and he run approaching them. “Should we go to eat tteokbokki after this?” ask Gyeong-Su to Ji-A. “We need to take picture first, Min-Hwan ahjussi and appa already arrive. Eomma and Ji-Yeon eonnie waiting for us near the soccer field. Lets take a picture there..” Ji-A looks very enthusiast today.  While Ji-A and Gyeong-Su busy taking picture together, Ji-Yeon and Jae-Hwan watch them from the other side. “Noona you’re not the most prettiest for Gyeong-Su..” said Jae-Hwan Ji-Yeon who’s sipping her strawberry milk shocked to hear that, “What you mean by that?? How come that brat not consider me as pretty...does he has a death wish??” Ji-Yeon pretend to be irritated. “You’re not the prettiest too for me...” said Jae-Hwan “Iissshhh...” Ji-Yeon glance at him, “Then who beat me this time?” ask Ji-Yeon. “That’s the culprit...the one with red dress... I can’t believe Gyeong-Su fall for her all this time...” Jae-Hwan point at Ji-A. “How did you know that?” Ji-Yeon surprised she thought she’s the only one that aware about Gyeong-Su feeling toward her little sister. “Noona... he even run and ditch school when she heard Ji-A fall from her gymnastic class, he even keep waiting for her the whole night...he is such obvious, the one that stupid is babydoll...” said Jae-Hwan. “Ya!! She’s 10, what do expect from 10 years old girl to be able to learn about love... the one that weird is you!!” Ji-Yeon defend on Ji-A.   Gyeong-Su put down the picture of him and Ji-A on his graduation day. He’s been daydreaming by looking at the picture. The day when Ji-A came and talk to him after the confession, he was thinking on giving up his feeling so Ji-A can smile again when they meet again. Because he will always meet her again, at the gathering, when he meet with Jae-Hwan, Ji-A is in his circle so it will sad for him if Ji-A continue hiding and avoid him. Just to see her smile and comfort again he decide to gave up his feelings, the love he’s been keeping for more than a decade. But then the night when he found Ji-A hiding from that reporters, and how she seems relieved to see him, it was heartbreaking for him to see her hiding like that. Being affraid because of something. She remember how Ji-A saved him twice from fire due to his trauma, and then he saved her. And he want to keep her safe the rest of his life. The day when Ji-A got shot was a horrible nightmare for him. He couldn’t stay by her side holding her hand like Hui-Jun did, but he stay outside her room wait for her like that. It’s sad but at least that make him feel a little bit at ease to be able to see her even for a very short time. He told Hui-Jun before that he will try again, he’s not giving up on Ji-A. He decided to love again the same like he was before. He decide to take her from Hui-Jun. But he also has some thoughts....he is hesitating on how he should act or move because he is affraid Ji-A will respond like she was before. And it will break his heart even more, and he’s affraid Ji-A will dissapear from her because of that. “What should I do? I really want you to know that I really love you...” Gyeong-Su talk with Ji-A picture.   “Hi chinggu... are you eating your lunch alone today??” Nabi send him text message. Gyeong-Su smile and type his reply, “Today I will have my lunch with some people about my next project....but I will spend my dinner alone” “Cancel your date with your some people...come and eat lunch with me” Nabi reply “Why?” ask Gyeong-Su “I just finished a meeting near your office, and now I’m starving...come out now have lunch with me” Nabi force him. Gyeong-Su smile, “I can’t... sorry... I have a meeting with them during lunch. Next time I’ll buy you lunch” “*angry*crying* you owe me lunch then..bye..” reply Nabi.   Gyeong-Su put down his phone and call for his secretary, Se-Ah show-up from behind the door, “You call?” she ask “Noona please prepare my material for today’s meeting at the Baek Hospital, and also please tell Gi-Gwang to prepared all the presentation tools to bring into this project” said Gyeong-Su. “I got it.. the documents you need will be ready in 10 minutes..” Se-Ah then dissapear.   “Everything ready?” Gyeong-Su ask Gi-Gwang again while they’re inside the Baek Hospital. “It’s all set CEO Cha..” Gi-Gwang assure him. Baek Hospital is having a big project coming, it’s a medical centre for kids with chronic disease and cancer, they plan to build a big new building near the main building and hire the best pediatric and staff to serve the medical centre. A lot of money put in this project as Taeyang group also join in investing first time in Taeyang history to be involve in medical field, every newspaper already talk about this and predict this project will be the best and the biggest children medical centre in South Korea. And JI-Yeon was contact Gyeong-Su first when she had the project approval from all the executive members. Gyeong-Su notice a familiar face while he is heading the conference room, “Oppa!!” Ji-A see Gyeong-Su in front of the elevator. Gyeong-Su smile then wave at her. “What you’re doing here? Oh annyeonghaseyo..” Ji-A greet Gi-Gwang. “I have meeting with Ji-Yeon noona about the rehabilitation medical centre, are you busy?” ask Gyeong-Su “I just finished a surgery..” but then Ji-A heard someone shouting her name, she turn and find Tae-Woo, her subordinate resident call for her and show a paper to her, “Ah! The lab result...oppa I’m sorry but I need to go now..have a great presentation...” Ji-A wave at him and Gi-Gwang.   The presentation went successfull, Ji-Yeon, others executive members and Taeyang representatives seems very happy and satisfied with the building design offerred by Gyeong-Su. “Nice job... I knew I pick the right man for this job..” Ji-Yeon tap on his shoulder. “You know I always do my best especially for you..” reply Gyeong-Su “Liar.... where are you going after this?” ask Ji-Yeon. “I don’t know....I don’t have any appoinment again after this.. noona, what are you doing?" ask Gyeong-Su “I have another meeting then I need to go home quick, the twins need to make a handycraft for tomorrow assignment...” said Ji-Yeon. “CEO Cha I’m going first, I need to check something at our apartment project..” Gi-Gwang said “Oh you have to go now?” Gyeong-Su was planning to ask Gi-Gwang for a drink with him after this. “Yes... I also have a date with my girlfriend so I need to finish on checking the project site quickly..” Gi-Gwang smirked. “Wah are you bragging that you have a girlfriend now?? I envy you...” Gyeong-Su laugh.   “Then when will you come back?” Ji-A talking on the phone with Hui-Jun. “I need to finish the filming, I’m sorry...” Hui-Jun really sorry for cancelling their date again. He’s been so busy wrapping all the remaining contract. And keep doing filming a new CF scene for some products he endorse. Not to mention his duty as Korean Tourism Ambassador, he is busy attending events related to that matter. Time is their enemy right now, Ji-A also busy preparing herself for next professor position opening. Her father wants her to be able to passed the preliminary test, but only 1 spot available for neuro since they already recruit the neuro genius Ho In-Gyo in this early year. Everyone said he will continue Jae-Dok legacy with his skills. “I can’t meet you on next Friday, I have full surgery schedule that day, not to mention if we have emergency patient coming..” said Ji-A “How is your progress for the test?” ask Hui-Jun “I wish I can have it... Hyeon-U already have Jae-Hwan oppa and professor Shin recomendation...so he’s in a very good path..” said Ji-A “How about you? Isn’t abeoji give you the recomendation?” ask Hui-Jun. “He did...but I need to show him many of my skills...and that means I have to live on the operation room until the new professor list announced..” said Ji-A. “You can make it, don’t worry about us...after this end we’ll go to Iceland together and have a vacation...” said Hui-Jun. “Iceland.... I wish we can go tomorrow...” Ji-A reply.   Ji-A sit on the bench in front of emergency room with banana milk in her hand. “Why are you sitting here alone?” Gyeong-Su find her and now joining her. “My friends are busy saving life...I’m jobless...so here I am catching some fresh air with this banana milk..” Ji-A smile. “What are you doing after this?” ask Gyeong-Su. “I was planning to date...but the boyfriend is busy so he bailed on our date again....” said Ji-A. “You’re meeting him often?” ask Gyeong-Su “It’s hard fighting with his schedule....they always win over me..” Ji-A smile in agony. “You choose him...you have to deal with it...” said Gyeong-Su. “I know...I didn’t even know that I’m a very patient and forgiven woman until I met his friend that named Schedules...” said Ji-A. Gyeong-Su laugh, and he get up. “If you have nothing to do now, why don’t you come with me” he asked. “Where?” ask Ji-A. “Anywhere...anything... I’m bored and I don’t have anything to do left today... I was planning asking Gi-Gwang for drinks but he said he has to go because he want to go for a date with his girlfriend..Jae-Hwan said he want’s to go home early today... then I found you... let’s go..” Gyeong-Su explain. “Let’s watch movie then...and go sightseeing...” Ji-A get up. “Let’s spend the day...” Gyeong-Su is happy.   “What do you want to watch?” ask Gyeong-Su “Let’s watch something funny or action...” said Ji-A. “Okay..” Gyeong-Su then picked a movie and order some snack and soft drinks. “Waahh this is good...I forget how I love being in the cinema like now..” said Ji-A. “Let’s go and watch movie again together next time..” said Gyeong-Su. Ji-A look at him, “Sure...let’s do it again later...” she smile and drinks her cola. Gyeong-Su and JI-A really enjoy their movie together, he and Ji-A laugh so hard when they see a funny scene. After movie done Gyeong-Su buy dinner for them, and they eat it near the Han river and have night picnic together. Ji-A laydown at the mat and enjoy the nightview in front of her eyes, “The stars are so nice tonight...they all showed me their beautiful shine together...” said Ji-A admiring the stars that looks like hanging in the sky. Gyeong-Su who also lay down beside her, smile and turn her head at her, he watch her, he want to touch her, but he doesn’t want to be greedy at this moment. Being here like this, with her is enough for today. He doesn’t want to ruin it. It’s enough for today.. he keep saying it in his heart. “Oppa...if a couple never have the time to meet each other...will it ruin everything?” suddenly Ji-A ask him a weird question. “Why?? You don’t have time to date anymore?” ask Gyeong-Su “He’s busy...I’m busy... when I have the time he’s not....when he has the time I’m stuck at the operation room...at first dating him with his job is hard ...but now even my job makes it harder...” sigh Ji-A. “Just try to make some time then...you and him can figure out something..or are you giving up?” Gyeong-Su placed his hand to support his head. “I don’t know oppa...it’s just I’m repeating the same mistake with him... I’m pretending again....I’m pretending I have no issue but I actually hate this kind of thing right now...” said Ji-A. “Then tell him... you need to be honest with him..” said Gyeong-Su. “I know...” said Ji-A. Then both of them lost in silence, they’re enjoying their own silence and wandering with their own thoughts. Gyeong-Su look at his watch, they have been here for nearly 2 hours, he get up and look at Ji-A. But turn out she’s asleep. Gyeong-Su smile and took out his coat, he then cover it on her. “Thank you...for giving me this lovely moment with you today..” said Gyeong-Su keep his eyes fixed at her. »»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»   “Where are you going?” Ji-A asking Mi-Yeon while their changing clothes at the locker room. “Date..Dong-Hyeok is outside waiting..” Mi-Yeon looks happy. “We’re screwed our professor test..Me and Hyeon-U will go for dinner and some drinks...come with us...” Ji-A suggest. “Really? I don’t know that..” sais Mi-Yeon. “It’s just happen, he’s already there, I call Hyeon-U because Hui-Jun bailed the date, he said he need to do some re-takes...” said Ji-A Then they walk together leaving the hospital, and they see Dong-Hyeok at the parking lot. “Eiissshh...why you have to bring her...” he is point at Ji-A. Ji-A approach Dong-Hyeok and hug his shoulder, “Long time not see chinggu ya..” Dong-Hyeok push her, “Chinggu? Go!! Don’t think I’m going to take you too..” “After being executive like this, now you look down on me??? Do you want to die?” Ji-A show him her fist.  “See...see.. you see that??” Dong-Hyeok stand behind Mi-Yeon. “Just stop it you two...let’s go now I’m hungry..” Mi-Yeon lead their way. “Where is Hyeon-U?” Dong-Hyeok ask. “We’re going to meet him..” said Ji-A. Dong-Hyeok suddenly stop, “YA!! I thought we’re going for a date right now..” he protest to Mi-Yeon. “We’re date in there..” Mi-Yeon drag Dong-Hyeok.   “CHEERS!!!!” the failed professor test participants raise their glass and drink up the beer. “I never thought the test will be that hard....stitching below 1 minutes...professor Oh Yeon-Ji really a lunatic..” Hyeon-U tell them his experience. “Even everyone know that he is my father but when I forgot 1 procedure he just slayed me....” Ji-A complaint about her dad. “But how come you forget 1 procedure?” Mi-Yeon commenting. “I was nervous..” said Ji-A. “This year is not our year anyway....we need to wait until next year...Shin said we’ll be successfull next year..” said Hyeon-U. “I know...everyone said the same..” said Mi-Yeon. Suddenly Hyeon-U phone is ringing. Ji-A look at the caller name and quickly grab the phone. “Hyeon-U is busy with his new girlfriend now...” she answer the phone. “YA!!” Hyeon-U try to grab his phone but Mi-Yeon hold him so he can’t move. “Baek Ji-A I will kill you!!” Hyeon-U shouting.   “Ya! Where is Hyeon-U?” Bora ask, “I told you he is busy with his new girlfriend..” Ji-A reply. “Yeah right, until when you’ll be playing childish like this?” Bora ask. “Until you let him go..” Ji-A love to having tensed conversation with Bora. “Who are you anyway? Hyeon-U eomma?” Bora ask again in frustration. “I’m more than his m....YA!” Hyeon-U take the phone from her. “Crazy girl..” he seethed at Ji-A before talking with Bora.   Hyeon-U back after done talking with Bora. He is look upset at Ji-A and Mi-Yeon. “Actually..why you have keep doing that to her?” He ask Ji-A and Mi-Yeon. “I like that Bora very much..” Dong-Hyeok join the conversation. “Right...she is likeable right??” Hyeon-U agree with him. Mi-Yeon glance at Dong-Hyeok, he quickly turn to the other side and drink up his beer. “She can fight with her very well...” Dong-Hyeok point at Ji-A without dare to look Mi-Yeon and Ji-A in the eyes. “You know how bad our things with her, why on earth you’re dating her anyway...” Mi-Yeon said. “Why you don’t like his girlfriend?” Dong-Hyeok ask. “She took my boyfriend back when highschool..” Ji-A answer. “Heol!! You already got Park Hui-Jun as your boyfriend now yet you’re still holding into the past?” Dong-Hyeok commenting. “I really don’t want to go this far...” Hyeon-U look at Ji-A and Mi-Yeon. “What?” Ji-A challenge him. Hyeon-U take out his phone again, and he find his hidden weapon. He tap into the video folder, and show it to Mi-Yeon and Ji-A. “What is that?” Dong-Hyeok curious. “Oh I really need to get this use right now...” Hyeon-U smirking. He tap the “Play” sign then the video where drunk Mi-Yeon, Ji-A and Bora singing tomato in different pitch and totally embrassing. Dong-Hyeok laugh in instance when he see the video, while Mi-Yeon and Ji-A lost for words. “Give me that!!” Ji-A try to get Hyeon-U phone, but Hyeon-U faster than her. “When did you get that?!!” Mi-Yeon is furious. “That’s not important...this is my weapon..” Hyeon-U keep his phone secure inside his pocket. “Delete that now..” Ji-A ask him. “If you promise me one thing..” said Hyeon-U, he then point his finger to Ji-A and Mi-Yeon. “From now on you both will accept Bora as one of us, as my girlfriend..and never call her witch again..” said Hyeon-U. “Or what?” Mi-Yeon challenge him again. Hyeon-U smirking ad tapping into a messenger, “If you reject my offering, first I will send this to our office chat room so our fellow residents and nurses and our junior and our senior will see this video...” threat Hyeon-U. Ji-A and Mi-Yeon gasp, whle Dong-Hyeok laugh more louder, “Send that to me too Hyeo-U ah...” he said.

She try to breath slowly, her heart feel a little weird since yesterday. But she hide it because she doesn’t want to make everyone worried. But since she wake up this morning she felt a continues chest pain and this time the pain is harder than before. Jae-Hwan just get out from bathroom and find So-Mi sitting at the edge of their bed, “Are you okay?” Jae-Hwan look at her. So-Mi quickly get up and smile, she hold the pain, “Oh..I’m fine It’s just a little dizzy so I took a seat for a while..” “Are you sick? Tell me where?” Jae-Hwan approaching and look at her. “It’s nothing, hurry put on your clothes..let’s have breakfast..” said So-Mi. Jae-Hwan done put on his clothes he then choose the watch he’s going to wear today, “PRANG!!!!” He quickly run to the source of the sound, “YEOBO!!!!!!” Jae-Hwan shout to find So-Mi collapsed and the vase ruins scaterred around her. Jae-Hwan quickly grab her and put her on the bed. Both Jae-Dok and Mi-Na runs to Jae-Hwan room after they hear Jae-Hwan shout. “What happen?!!” Jae-Dok burst into the room and find Jae-Hwa is examining So-Mi. “Please call 119!!!” Jae-Hwan panicked. Ji-A run with her hand busy putting on sweater, while Jae-Hwan join in pushing cart to the ambulance car. “Eomma just wait here!!” Ji-A talk to her mom. “No I’m going to!!” Mi-Na do not want to hear everyone says that she should be home. Jae-Dok look at her, “Just stay at home, you can’t do anything also at the hospital..” said Jae-Dok. “I’m going to stay with her, I don’t care even all of you won’t give me a ride i’ll take the cab..” Mi-Na doesn’t really care. “JI-A HURRY!!!!” Jae-Hwan shout as he already inside the ambulance. Ji-A look at her parents and sign Jae-Dok something about her mother, then she run to come with Jae-Hwan. “Alright you come with me, but promise me you will stay in my office until So-Mi transferred into her own room, you understand!” said Jae-Dok. Mi-Na nod quickly, she’s sure her husband won’t be able to checking whether she stay at his office or not since he will be busy as well.   The ambulance arrive at Baek Hospital emergency entrance door, Hyeon-U and nurses already waiting for them. Jae-Hwan get out quickly followed by Ji-A, “You were taking a bath?” ask nurse Moon. “How do you know that?” Ji-A shocked that nurse Moon know that she was taking a bath when So-Mi collapsed and everyone in her house become a noisy festival. “You still have some soap on your hair...” nurse Moon point on some bubbles left on Ji-A hair. “Iiissshhh.....I really need to take shower again in here..” Ji-A choose to tie up her hair. And she run following her brother. The situation on emergency ward is so chaotic as Jae-Hwan can’t pull himself straight, everything done by Hyeon-U and the nurses to help him become so wrong. At that time professor Shin arrive at the emergency ward with Jae-Dok, “Jae-hwan shi I will take over your wife case starting now..” professor Shin step up then took her chart. “This is my wife I will not let anyone take care of her, I know how to treat her...” Jae-Hwan refuses. “At this rate your opinion and medical act will be biased since you’re treating your wife, and you can’t think about the medical steps that she should take next since you will be too affraid to do that or maybe too aggresive about that. Leave her to me, I will take her as my patient now..” said professor Shin. “I WILL TAKE CARE OF HER, YOU JUST BACK OFF!!” Jae-Hwan is angry. “IF YOU WANT HER TO GET BETTER THEN GET YOUR ASS OUT OFF MY WAY AND LET ME TREAT HER, NOW!!” professor Shin is the same badass as Jae-Hwan in attitude and skills, so she doesn’t even scare when Jae-Hwan shout like that. “Jae-Hwan ah I said to her to take So-Mi case, just let her do it..”Ji-Yeon pull Jae-Hwan arm so professor Shin can check on her. Jae-Hwan realize that what Shin said is right, he shouldn’t act as So-Mi doctor right now and leave those to her, “Shin, you’ll need to..” Jae-Hwan can’t finish his sentence. “I’m her doctor, not you so as the patient guardian you should wait outside... what kind of i***t that let the patient family stay and questioning all my work!!” professor Shin at Hyeon-U and Woo-Ri. Woo-Ri and Jae-Hwan who understand how evil both Jae-Hwan and Shin can be during their service quickly look at each other, Woo-Ri hurriedly grab Jae-Hwan arm and scouting him at the waiting area. “Professor Baek, please just wait right here... We will do my best to treat your wife..” Woo-Ri said it slowly and he is already prepared himself if he got scolded badly by Jae-Hwan. “Just stay here, this is the best thing you can do right now for her..” said Jae-Dok. Then Ji-A come out from the emergency ward, “I don’t think I’ll be needed, I will go and have myself ready first..” said Ji-A. Jae-Dok nod, “I will check on her later...you should be strong...if you fall down she will fall down...you have to give her the strength she need..” Jae-Dok tap on Jae-Hwan shoulder. Jae-Hwan burried his face on his hand, he is aware that So-Mi condition is worst than before. Open her up this time will be useless since the one she need is a heart transplant. Mi-Na and Ji-Yeon stay with Jae-Hwan, “She’s in good hand...you should trust professor Shin..her surgery percentage is as perfect as yours. I will not ask you to stepped down if the one that replace you not her..” said Ji-Yeon. Jae-Hwan not saying anything, he understand very well that he should let professor Shin take So-Mi case since before. “Do you want something to eat?” ask Mi-Na. Jae-Hwan shook his head, “Just stay here with me eomma...” he said.   So-Mi still unconscious but now she is transfered to her room, Mi-Na and Jae-Hwan stay with her. Professor Shin is talking with Jae-Hwan about So-Mi condition, “At this rate her ICD not helping much, and her condition slowly decreasing. The only thing that we can do to save her completely is thru heart transplant. I’m aware that she’s already on the transplant list but we also can’t lie that it’s a very long and hard process for us to get one unless we’re very lucky” said professor Shin. Jae-Hwan look at So-Mi. “I already contacted some friends, who knows we will be lucky this time..” said professor Shin. She then leave the room, Jae-Hwan still thinking hard on how he can save his wife this time. “Eomma I will see noona for a while, please stay with her..” said Jae-Hwan. Jae-Hwan arrive at Ji-Yeon office, Ji-Yeon was talking on the phone when he’s arrive. “Yes thank you I will contact you again soon I hear the good news..” Ji-Yeon finish her call, she look at Jae-Hwan. “That is the transplant centre, I called to ask whether they can help to make So-Mi into their priority list. And professor Shin also preparing all the documents needed for me to get that..” Ji-Yeon already know what Jae-Hwan going to ask. “How long?” ask Jae-Hwan “The truth is they have 2 possible candidate for heart given to So-Mi and other 3 patients in other hospital. Both donors are in coma and already stated in brain dead condition, but we have to make So-Mi priority that’s the hard part..as the other already waiting for months and one already in worst condition than her.” Ji-Yeon explain. “Once the donor family sign the DNR form then we can get the heart as soon as possible, but that will only happen if So-Mi make into the list.” Ji-Yeon continue. “Can’t you help with your power?? Can your husband help me this time I never asked for anything before, I beg you to do this one for me..If I have to pay just tell me how much...” Jae-Hwan beg to his sister. “Do you have to say that to me? Do you think I won’t help you? How can you say like that?!” Ji-Yeon feel offended by what Jae-Hwan said. “I don’t want to loose her noona. First time in my life I can find the center of my life..she is my universe. I beg you to save her..” Jae-Hwan tears begin to drop. Ji-Yeon never see her brother crumble like this, never, she approach him and hug him. “You know I’m good on doing my job right?” she said. Jae-Hwan cry in her arms, “Go back and stay with her let me do my job” said Ji-Yeon. »»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»   “How is So-Mi noona?” ask Hui-Jun, Hui-Jun has a day break today. He and Ji-A is preparing lunch together. “Still the same, she is not in good condition.” said Ji-A. “Will she make it?” ask Hui-Jun. He feel sad for Beom-Seok, he looks very stressed in the last few days because So-Mi condition. “Eonnie still trying to get her the heart. She has to be save... she will be saved..” said Ji-A. Hui-Jun look at her, Ji-A also looks gloomy these days. Everytime she enter So-Mi room to check on her she see her mom talking by herself wishing So-Mi to get better soon. And seeing So-Mi with all the cables attach to her body scared Ji-A too. Even she is a doctor but seeing that happen to her own family is creep her out. Not to mention Jae-Hwan who looks terrible each day, she even help her brother shaved yesterday and accompany him on lunch telling him some funny jokes so he will laugh even for a second. Hui-Jun step closer and hug her, “Don’t worry too much, everything will be alright..” he kiss her head. “Jae-Hwan oppa never looks terrible like that his whole life..eonnie....eonnie...eonnie has to get better so my oppa will be live again as before...eonnie...eonnie...has to be better..” Ji-A cannot hold her emotion again she cry in Hui-Jun arm. That day they stay at Hui-Jun place talking and watching movie. Hui-Jun watch her asleep and protect her. He also see how sad Ji-A and her family, to see So-Mi lying like that when he went for picked Ji-A last night. Hui-Jun phone is ringing, Ji-A wake up, “Your phone is ringing..” said Ji-A. “I know...who’s calling at this time I said I'm on a break today..” said Hui-Jun as he is sure the call not cominng from Gi-Gwang, his parent or Beom-Seok as they have different ringtone. “Yes director nim” said Hui-Jun, he saw the director name on his phone screen and pick it up quickly. “Hui-Jun shi I’m really sorry to interrupt you day break, but you really need to come now. We have to re take some scene to be aired next week. The last one we take I just see the edited part and I feel not satisfied...can you come now.. I promise this won’t take the whole day..” said the director. Hui-Jun look at Ji-A with apologize look, if it comes to his job Hui-Jun always take it seriously. “I’ll be there in 1 hour...” said Hui-Jun. Hui-Jun end the phone call and grab Ji-A’s hand. “I’m sorry.... but it won’t take a whole day...will you wait?” ask Hui-Jun. Ji-A look at him hopeless, “I know...I won’t be on your way...When is the finale?? 2 more weeks right??!!! Iissshh that director and writer should realy buy me dinner. They make my boyfriend kissed other woman, make my boyfriend doing bedscene with other woman, make my boyfriend hold other woman hands..now even robbed my time with him...Make sure you tell them my message!!” Ji-A look at Hui-Jun. “Ya... I told you I did nothing on that bed scene.. it’s just me and her waking up in the morning together...” Hui-Jun defend himself. “Yeah with your bare chest....and you even show this abs too... and then you kissed her and said good morning...” Ji-A sound jealous. “You got to see my chest and my abs everytime you want...and I kissed you thousand times... “ said Hui-Jun again. “Just finish this drama quickly...it’s so annoying when people keep replaying your kiss scene with that Yu-Mi, even there’s a thread JunMi couple...let’s ship them until marriage the tagline said it...”said Ji-A. Hui-Jun laugh, it’s always funny to see Ji-A chattering and jealous like this, “Should I change my jobs then...I won’t be popular like this the whole time..I should start to think my next plan....” Hui-Jun hug her. “Don’t do that because of me... I will hate it if you leave the thing you love because of me...” Ji-A hug him back.   Hui-Jun drop Ji-A at the hospital as he promised he will pick up her later when he’s done. Ji-A wave her goodbye as Hui-Jun car leave the hospital. She then goes directly into So-Mi room, as her mom also there. Ji-A open the door and she can see Ji-Yeon also there with Jae-Dok and professor Shin. “We really need to go now, but we short of staff since everyone are having surgery schedule and will do surgery in next 1 hour while the trip from here to Anyang Hospital will take 2 hours back and forth” said Ji-Yeon. “Can’t we use our helicopter?” ask professor Shin “We receiving call from the airport. The VIP guest is having seizure on plane and she need to be in hospital less than 1 hour and directly to the surgery room so we can save her..” said Ji-Yeon. “Hyeon-U and Woo-Ri has to stand by for the operation preparation, while other cardio resident are having surgery schedule in next 1 hour...” Ji-Yeon continue. “I can go...” suddenly Ji-A join in their conversation. Everyone turn their head at her, “You don’t have anything today?” ask Jae-Dok. “It’s my day break...” said Ji-A. “You really can do it?” ask Jae-Hwan. Ji-A nod, it’s not hard to get the donor transplant all she need is come to the hospital where the donor treated, witness the organ harvest then make sure everything as planned, then go back to her hospital goes directly to the OR room where everyone already ready on transplant process, “Yes I can do it..” said Ji-A Ji-Yeon look at her, then she look at Jae-Hwan and professor Shin, “We don’t have much time and this is the best option we have. I don’t want we loose it again like the last 2 before..” said professor Shin. “Okay you’ll go, the hospital car already waiting at the lobby. You better go change now..” Ji-Yeon said. Ji-A then run to the resident room and change her clothes quickly she then pick up the donor basket then leave the hospital to Anyang Hospital. A young woman in her early 30 commit suicide 3 days ago, her family was able to save her but she’s in coma since the day she brought to Anyang Hospital. And today the doctors that treated her already said to her family that their daughter already in fase of brain dead and no longer can be helped. Her family then found her will that she woud like to donor her organs if she died. That’s why Ji-Yeon got the first call on the heart since it’s match with So-Mi. Now Ji-A on it’s way to Anyang hospital, “Ahjussi we really need to be hurry..” Ji-A said to the driver. “I understand miss Ji-A I will be very fast today” said the driver.   “CEO Cha based on this land I don’t think our design will be fit perfectly..” said Gi-Gwang. “Why is that?” ask Gyeong-Su while he is continue checking on his surroundings. “Look at that...the land height not at the same level...we can’t put a flat design how about I change the layout a little bit...” said Gi-Gwang. “How many days you need to change it?” ask Gyeong-Su. “Give me 2 days...I will finished the new design in 2 days. I only need to change the floor plan and the outside layout. For inside I don’t think I have to make a major changes.” Gi-Gwang confidence with his idea. “Okay then 2 days....I won’t make your days easy if you failed this..” said Gyeong-Su. Gi-Gwang laugh to hear his boss comment. “Let’s go home then...ah how about we go dinner together this time?” ask Gi-Gwang. “You’re going to Baek Hospital right?” Gi-Gwang ask again, he open the car door. “”Yes I’m going to visit a friend..” said Gyeong-Su. “So-Mi noona?” ask Gi-Gwang “How do you know?” Gyeong-Su put on his seatbelt. “I’ve been friends since childhood with Beom-Seok, me and Hui-Jun..of course I know So-Mi noona..” said Gi-Gwang. “Have you visit her?” ask Gyeong-Su. “I had yesterday...ah my sister has a restaurant in front of the hospital how about I buy you dinner at my sister place?” said Gi-Gwang. “That’s interesting.. I never refuse a free food ... okay let’s have dinner together..” said Gyeong-Su. Gi-Gwang phone buzzing, he picked up then, “Yes CEO Lee..” Gi-Gwang greet the caller. “Oh I happen to be closed with Anyang Hospital, I can stop by and take the design you want us to make..” said Gi-Gwang. “What happen with CEO Lee?” ask Gyeong-Su once the phone call ended. “Ah you remember CEO Lee who wants to renovate his villa at Jeju? He has some design in mind but he is hospitalized at Anyang Hospital right now, can we drop by for a while?” ask Gi-Gwang. “Yeah sure, that won’t take long..” said Gyeong-Su.   Ji-A already arrive at the operation room at Anyang Hospital, the surgeon is doing the harvest on the patient heart, “The surgeon from Baek Hospital aready arrive professor Na..” the nurse inform the surgeon on Ji-A arrival. Professor Na turn his back and look at Ji-A, “It’s Baek Ji-A herself who’s coming... “ professor Na smiling. “I will say your warm welcome to my father...” said Ji-A then she bow to her father college friend. “How is the patient condition back there? How come the neuro surgeon come here and pick up the cardio thing??” ask professor Na. “Our cardio surgeon are busy, I’m the one that jobless...” Ji-A laugh. “Why you’re jobless with your dad on your tail you must be as busy as bees right now..” professor Na continue chattering with Ji-A. “I guess he’s affraid that I will steal all of his skills if he keep me too close...” Ji-A joking. And both of them laughing so are the rest people at the surgery room. “Here it is...be careful..” professor Na hand the heart to his resident that already ready accepting the heart. The resident quickly take steps to Ji-A he then placed the heart into donor box that carried by Ji-A, “Good luck..” he said.
