{Disqualified Doctor} [Hiatus]

17_ “I think you like it”

Zzzzz_ Finally, the doctors who had finished the surgery took off their masks and came out of the operating room, and

Juan saw those doctors and ran away quickly.

여주안

The surgery went well... right?

의사

Yes, it ended well.

의사

He will just finish up and come out, so please wait a little while.

여주안

Phew, that's a relief.

여주안

Thank you..

The doctors went their separate ways before Juan could even finish thanking them.

여주안

This place is just as good as our hospital.

A few minutes later, Grandma was moved back to her original room, and

Juan tightly held the hand of his grandmother, who was barely holding on to life while leaning against a medical device.

And then I shed tears little by little.

여주안

Grandma, I'm sorry..

여주안

I can't visit often because I use being busy as an excuse, and I always leave you alone...

여주안

I must be a really bad customer... I'm so sorry...

*Rattling sound* The hospital room door opened, and a nurse came in and said that visiting hours were over.

With such a heartless and cold face, he repeatedly told me to leave.

여주안

Understood. Please take good care of my grandmother.

간호사

Yes, yes. Goodbye.

As the tension eased, the strength drained from my entire body along with it.

My legs were trembling the whole way, so I couldn't even walk properly.

I wonder if I walked for quite a while like that.

Thump_ Juan, who was walking with his eyes fixed on the ground, bumped into someone.

여주안

Ah, I'm sorry.

김남준

Ms. Yeo...?

여주안

Mr. Kim?

여주안

Why is Mr. Kim here...

김남준

Why? It's right in front of the hospital.

여주안

uh..?

I'm a doctor, after all. How did I end up walking straight to our hospital?

김남준

But why did you come back to the hospital?

김남준

I told you to take a break today.

여주안

Mr. Kim, do you have a moment?

김남준

yes?

김남준

Well, I think it might work now, but

여주안

Please talk to me for a moment.

Having arrived at the playground near the hospital, the two sat on the swings and stomped their feet.

김남준

What is it that made you come all the way here?

여주안

I just... I thought the hospital staff shouldn't see this.

김남준

What am I not supposed to look at...?

여주안

This appearance

김남준

yes_?

여주안

This is what those people like the most_ this appearance

김남준

ah..

I think I know_ what Juan said.

So, I guess that means everyone at the hospital likes seeing Ms. Yeo having a hard time.

여주안

Haa... what am I even saying?

여주안

Go inside right now, a patient might come.

김남준

Ms. Yeo, you're going straight home, right?

여주안

That's what I should do since I have nowhere else to go.

Juan, who was about to turn around and leave, turned back to look at Namjoon as if something had occurred to him.

여주안

Ah, right.

김남준

Why are you doing this?

여주안

What does that mean, note?

김남준

A note?

여주안

You know, that thing, chocolate and jelly

김남준

Ah, that...

Namjoon blushed as he finally remembered what the note said.

여주안

Why is my face turning red?

김남준

No, that's...

여주안

Well, when I first saw it, I saw it too.

김남준

I think you like me...!!

여주안

Uh... uh?

I was taken aback for a moment. What is this guy talking about?

김남준

I think... I like Ms. Yeo.
