The person next door is a police officer

6 hours later

Ji-hoon's bed was brought into the hospital room.

The surgery went well. Of course, there will inevitably be aftereffects.

I don't know when I'll wake up, but for now, my condition is good. The wounds have been sutured well, and the bone grafting has been done successfully.

권순영

thank you…

이여주

thank you…

Sunyoung and Yeoju's voices are cracking, as if they've been crying a lot.

The doctor left the hospital room and the female protagonist opened her mouth.

이여주

I'll go first. Please stay by Jihoon's side, Soonyoung.

권순영

N, yes?

이여주

I don't think I can be with Jihoon anymore. He's been hurt so much since we met.

권순영

It's not because of the heroine,

이여주

Even if it wasn't because of me, I think it's right that I'm not around.

이여주

This time, you came here knowing it was my company while you were hospitalized. Then I'll just go to Jeon-i.

The sight of Yeo-ju leaving Ji-hoon's hospital room was very gloomy.

이여주

I should leave a message for Jihoon

이여주

“Jihoon, I think we should part ways now. You’ve been hurt so much since you met me.”

이여주

“It’s okay to think of me as a coward who can’t protect you.”

이여주

“I ran away because I was scared after seeing your pain and didn’t want to see you anymore.”

이여주

“Even if you come to my house or to my company, I won’t be able to welcome you.”

이여주

“I’ll be home, but I won’t answer your calls.”

이여주

"The company has issued a leave of absence. Get well soon and live a police career without further injury. I'm sorry I couldn't protect you until the end."

이여주

Sigh... I feel sorry for Jihoon, but I think this is the top priority.

권순영

Jihoon… wake up. You’re not the type to sleep this long, are you?
