Jangsu Hospital
Yeong was waiting for the doctor outside on the hallway. Tension visible on his creased eyebrows. Yeong had forcefully send Butler song as he wasn't looking good at all. Although he told yeong to call him back as soon as Mr. Kim regain consciousness.
Yeong was engrossed in this thoughts when he felt a small hand on his shoulder. He immediately looked up. It was a little girl in a hospital gown who seemed not more than 5-6 years old.
"Who are you,kid??Are you lost?" Yeong asked.
"I'm soo hyun and no I'm not lost. "
"Are you sure?? " Yeong asked suspiciously.
"Ok, Maybe I am a little lost." the little girl named soo hyun said pouting.
" Where are your parents?"
"Where else,at their office." the girl replied a little annoyed.
" Enough abou me. Who are you?? Are you hurt?? Why are you crying?? " the little girl bombard Yeong with Questions & Yeong realized that he was actually crying all these time.
"I'm yeong. No, I'm not. It's my dad who is hurt and I'm not crying. I just got dirt in my eyes." Yeong lied & started rubbing his eyes.
"You know it's bad to lie. And It's ok to cry. Doctor Lee said, It takes more courage to cry than hiding your tears." The little girl lectured.
"your doctor Lee sounds like a good person." Yeong said as a small smile appeare on his lips.
"YEAH!!! Doctor Lee is the best. He always gives me chocolates after Bad doctor give those Stinky medicines." The girl happily exclaimed before making a disgusted face at the mention of the medicines.
"He also visit me everyday even tho I'm no longer his patient. He treats me better than my own parents." The girl whispered, sadly.
"I'm sorry." Yeong apologised, nit knowing how to Console the little girl.
"It's ok you know. I'm gonna die in a few days either way." the little girl said with big smile.
"So hyun!!!!" a nurse called as she came running towards them.
"Oh shoot!" the little girl cussed.
"Aish... So hyun ah. Where were you?? Doctor Lee is worried for you." the nurse said.
"Sorry sorry. I got lost. Let's go back. " the girl apologised & started walking back with the nurse. But came back to yeong to give him a goodbye hug.
" Bye, handsome oppa. Don't worry you dad will be fine." the girl broke the hug & ran toward to nurse.
"I hope so." Yeong murmured.
Several hours later
The old doctor came out with the test reports.
"How is he, Doctor?" yeong asked, concerned.
"He is fine right now. We have given him sedatives. But don't worry he will wake up in a few hours.But-" the doctor paused for a second before continuing.
"But what, doctor??" Yeong asked more concerned than before.
" According to the reports,he had a minor heart attack. And there is a high possibility that he might end up having a major one soon. " the doctor explained.
"wha-" It took yeong some moment to Process what the doctor Just said.
"Mr.kim, please calm yourself. Your dad needs you now. Try to keep him tension free.Tension is his biggest enemy right now. Also try to make him happy. He needs it the most now." the doctor said patting Yeong's shoulder & left.
Yeong sat on the nearest bench & put his head on his hand, rethinking all the events that happened today. Although Yeong blamed his dad & they weren't in good terms. But Yeong don't want to lose his dad, his only left family. He can't break his last promise to his mom.
After thinking for a few moment, Yeong stood up & went in Mr.kim's cabin. Yeong can't really guess when was the last time his dad looked this vulnerable. Maybe on that day when his mom died. yeong walked upto his bed & sat down on the chair next to Mr.kim's bed.
After three hours or so, Yeong wake up to sensing some movement next to him.wait, when did he fall asleep?. Yeong sit up straight & saw his dad was finally waking up.
"Finally, you are wake now." Yeong said,faking annoyance.
"Aish!!! Why is it so bright here??" Mr.kim said covering his eyes.
"Well, if you don't like it bright than don't get yourself in the hospital in the first place. " Yeong huffed.
" whatever. But why are you still here? Don't you have work in your mountains?" Mr.kim asked More like taunted, uncovering his eyes.
" Ok, I would give it a try." Yeong announced.
" Give try to what??" Mr.kim asked confused.
" I'll give it a try being a police officer " Yeong muttered, reluctantly.
As soon as these word fall on Mr.kim's ears, a big smile adorned on Mr.kim's face. Mr.kim's face lit up as if he has achieved bis biggest achievement. Seeing Mr.kim's happiness, yeong,himself could feel a little tug on his face which he hid right away.
" Don't be that much happy. I have a condition." Yeong said.
"Agreed. Agreed." Mr.kim who was feeling as if he was on cloud nine, agreed without even listening the condition.
" you know , you should Atleast hear what the condition is before agreeing . " Yeong said,rolling his eyes.
"I know. I know. Sorry. So what is it?" Mr.kim asked still smile ear to ear.
" The condition is that I'll help you solve only one case. And if by the end of case I still don't like being a police officer, I will quit and you Will never say anything about it." Yeong explained as Mr.kim's smile starts to wither.
"Can't you make it three cases?" Mr.kim asked hopefully.
"Nope" Yeong replied nonchalantly.
" How about making it two cases?? " Mr.kim asked,pulling his best puppy eyes.
" I still can't " Yeong said, hiding his smile. It's really fun to see how his dad, the most fearsome police officer can turn into a lost puppy sometimes.
" You are cruel. Can't you make it two cases for this old sick dad of yours??." Mr.kim asked,sulking.
"I can. But I won't. Because it was your fault. You already agreed to my condition without even listening to it. " Yeong said,smirking.
Mr.kim now wanted to smack himself on head. How can he be so foolish?? But right now he is too tired to do anything. Sighing, he also agreed. Forced to agree.
" I'm sleepy." Mr.kim said, still sulking.
Yeong adjusted Mr.kim's bed & tugged Mr.kim in. After seeing that Mr.kim had fallen asleep, Yeong walked toward the door& pulled the door open. Just as he was about leave,he turned back toward Mr.Kim's Sleeping figure.
" Still so stubborn. Always get what you want. But I'm also your son,dad." Yeong muttered as a smile appeared on his face.
