Yoon Chaya settled her other job in the convenient store before she went home that evening. She needs to quit properly and luckily; the owner was very considerate. She has been working there for a long time and the owner treated her with kindness as usual.
As soon as she got home, Carl was in the dining table eating his dinner. He got back from library. She talked to her son about the offer.
"My little darling, I have something to tell you about… a job offering to me?" Chaya said as she sat down across the table.
"What job Mom?" Carl questioned as he stopped eating.
"Caregiver. A patient of Dr. Yu Ming who got an accident last night and needs to take care of him 2 to 3 months' time." She replied.
"Well, okay that's great!" He seems happy knowing that job.
"But son, I should be round the clock stay by his side. I mean, after his discharge at the hospital I will stay in his house for the time being until he will be back to normal walking again." She spoke.
Carl stared at her for five seconds before opening his mouth.
"Well, I think you need to accept that offer Mom because I know that it will give you high salary and … it's just 2-3 months so why not grab the opportunity then." Thumbs up signed he gave to Chaya.
"Are you really sure about it? However, they let me have a one day off every week so I can still see you too." Chaya said happily.
Carl stood up from the table and walk thru Chaya. He embraced his mom tight and speak.
"Mom, I know what you're thinking. It is okay with me because I am not a kid anymore. I can take care of myself too and it's not that long to be away from each other." Carl gave her some assurance.
After what Carl said, Chaya was so proud of her son. He is mature now and nothing to worry. It is for his future too she is thinking about it thou in her heart she is still uneasy.
Taking care of that patient is really quite bothersome because they had history too. In addition, even it is hard to face the fact about it she cannot say No to Dr. Yu Ming because both doctors were so kind to her.
Morning comes; Chaya went straight to Dr. Yu Ming's clinic. Knowing at the door and heard him to come in.
"Yes, Chaya have you think about it." Dr. Yu asked after she sat down.
"Dr. Yu, I will take your offer and be a caregiver to that patient." She spoke.
Dr. Yu Ming all smiled after hearing her answer. He tapped her shoulder and said, "You will never regret this opportunity because the patient himself is a good person and you will not worry about anything as long as you do you duties on him."
"Okay doc, I trust you more with it."
"Then I will give you this uniform. You will wear this during your working time here and it is up to the patient if he will give you other uniforms or just your own clothes to wear. It's not on me to decide okay." She nodded silently. Dr. Yu Ming continues talking.
"So, let's go and see the patient to his room and I will introduce you to him properly as his personal caregiver so that you will not feel awkward about it. I know it is your first time but it is not a very hard job. The patient just only wants to take care about his other need and he has his own assistant to help you too if you're not available to do other tasks."
Hearing this, Chaya felt comfortable even thou she felt hesitant but she knows she can do her job very well. Therefore, she let her negative mind washed it thru.
Room 1205
Lee Moven was talking over the video with his daughter Jia. He never let her visit to the hospital and he just assure to her that he is just find and to more days he will go back home.
"Baby, you don't upset coz Daddy will going to be fine. I will go home soon and it's not good for kids to be here with me."
"But Dad, I'm worry about you and I miss you." Jia complained.
He knew that Jia was having a hard time right now. He can feel the fear in her eyes and her thinking too.
Dr. Yu Ming came in with Chaya. She is wearing purple uniform for a caregiver. They moved forward to Lee Moven.
The doctor greeted Lee Moven. "Good morning, Moven. I am here as well to inform you that this is your caregiver Yoon Chaya." He introduced her to him.
"She will take care most of your needs and to assist you during your stay her and to your home too. She will do this duty until your recovery."
Yoon Chaya forwards her steps to him as the doctor introduced her. She greeted the patient.
"Good morning, I am Yoon Chaya."
While saying her name and looked at him makes her so tense. Lee Moven's stares were like a bubble gum that sticks so much to her face.
"Okay, nice to meet you, Chaya. I hope you will take good care of me." Moven replied. He can sense that Chaya was shy when he glanced at her and he can see the blushing on her face. He almost smiles but controlled it. He really likes to tease her.
When the doctor checked, his wound and left them alone. The two of them both silence. No one will do the talking first. Chaya was suffocated now of a quiet room. She does not know what to do.
Lee Moven was just observing Chaya; he knew that she was so shy to open up. He soon started talking.
"Chaya, are you uncomfortable being with me." He asked.
Tog.tog.tog.
Chaya's heartbeat was abnormal again. She could not control anymore. Her thought was also lost all of the sudden.
'Why is this happening to me? Why is it he's a little bit closer to me?'
"No sir, anything you want me to do?" Chaya changed the subject so that he will not focus on her because she was so not feeling well if they keep on facing each other time to time.
"No just be my side all the time and relax a little bit you're so tense you know." Lee Moven teasingly smiles at her.
