Chaeyoung PoV

They all clapped at me as I walk out of the ambulance. 

I saved someone. The bodyguard of the head Korean representative is in recovery in the hospital. Amputation surgery on 2 legs. 

Do I have luck today?

What are you talking about, Chae? Don't be blinded by that kind of believing. 

Anyway, it's now turning to the evening time. But everyone seems to be determined to look for other UN members. 

I heard that the UN military force is in need of men because they have dispatched small unit groups to different parts in Hawaii. But they've focused more on the UN members and the people in this ghost town. 

When I walk around, looking for Yeri, the night lights turned on. Everyone looked and started to bounce in joy.

That meant, that the public connection is now on. Except that the public connection in this town is in the UN military force quarters. All UN quarters have public connection but considering the crumpled building? I think we don't have. 

I don't feel tired at all. I feel absolutely energized. It's like rewarded myself a little for making someone live longer. 

"Doc!" Yeri ran to me. 

She hugged me tight, "Oh, jinjja."

I rubbed her back, "Are you being emotional? Remember Kim Yeri, this is not the place where you get emotional!" 

"No, I'm just thankful we're all safe," she smiled. "Anyway, doc. Around 10 minutes from now, we're going to go inside the basement of the building and look for more survivors. 5 Korean soldiers will go with us."

"Why 10 minutes? What are we doing in those 10 minutes? We can go in now!" 

"Actually, they're giving out food and water right now. I'm sure you've eaten in the hospital, but I saved both of us 2 bottles of water."

I nodded, "It's okay. I don't want to eat anyway."

She tilted her head, "Strange. When I was 1st year intern with you, you always thought about eating and eating or when's lunch or the next break. What's happened to Professor Park then?"

I awkwardly laughed, "People change."

The Chaeyoung that used to be happy? 

Where is she? Where the hell did she go? 

When I used to be with Junhoe, my happiness always kicks in. I'd either giggle, wiggle, beg for food, puff my cheeks and a lot of other things. 

The things that happy people do.

But when we broke up, the next day, I performed a surgery and began to break down in the middle. Sunbae told me to get out of his operation room and come when I'm all better.

The Chief Park Jin Young called me and asked me to have a counselling with him. I came home, perfectly fine but my face didn't say it. I was so monotone and dull. 

My most unhappy days of my life. 

I barely came home afterwards, I barely ate, I barely did fun activities. Until a new sign told me that I should still live.

While assisting on a surgery with Park Jiyeon-sunbae, I fainted. When I woke up, Yoona-sunbae told me that I'm becoming a mother. That's the start of me slowly becoming happy again, but I'm still not as happy as before. 

I didn't make the pregnancy the reason why I'll skip a year of my residency. There was only 2 months left, for sure the first trimester can be the scariest but it's the time where I won't have a clear baby bump yet. 

By the end of 2 months, I became an attending doctor. My life with Jiyoon became hectic in terms of family. My parents told me that I'm too young, but they gave me a chance. 

If I mess up with Jiyoon's life once, they'll take her in Australia and I can take her back once I've fixed everything. Which is why I don't want to find the father. Because it'll make things more complicated than it already is. 

"Doctor Park and Doctor Kim?" a man asked. 

"Yes?" I answered.

"Safety hats, please. Doctor Kim please hold onto First Sergeant Lee Seung Ri. And Doctor Park please hold onto Sergeant Major Choi Seung-hyun," he brought out his hand. "I'm Major Kwon Ji Young, the leader of this rescue mission."

I shook his hand, "Alright we'll cooperate."

Before I proceeded, the 5 men who lined up in front of us stopped me. I told Yeri to go ahead and prepare anything we needed. 

"I'm Second Lieutenant Kand Daesung, Park Chaeyoung-ssi," he held out his hand for a handshake and I returned it. "We understand that you just came from a surgery and a rescue mission. If you feel any fatigue, please tell us. We aren't forcing you in."

Another held his hand out, "I'm Private First Class Dong Yong Bae. Major doesn't want anything wrong to happen in there. So if you're now feeling stressed, we'll hold the mission until morning."

I shook my head, "Women means not scared. What is wrong with men these days!" 

They stood there, taken aback by my words. 

"I apologize for our impoliteness, Park Chaeyoung-ssi. Joseonghamnida," they all bowed.

Finally, I went next to Yeri and buckled my safety hat. 

We were walking inside, and like what their 'Major' said. Hold onto their Sergeant Major. I held onto him. 

The 7 of us were all so quiet, while walking in the tight space. The darkness made it harder as it was night time. I guess they placed lights before they allowed missions to go on but it really makes me feel like I'm blind.

All of a sudden, the Major held his hand out, "Chakaman..."

"Wae, hyung?" the Second Lieutenant asked. 

"Something's not right...."

Then what he said quickly became true. 

The shaking started to move the tight space and we were all panicking. 

Yeri kept yelling and crying, saying she hasn't said good-bye to her friends. I tried to remain calm. I breathed in and out, trying to make myself believe that I will make it out of the place. 

I will come home.

Like what he said, right? He wants me home. And I want to be with him too. 

I looked up and saw a big rock starting to fall at me. I closed my eyes.

Didn't think it would end like this. Not coming home after all, Jeon Jungkook. 

"Yah, Seunghyun-hyung!" someone yelled. 

A body fell on top of me with the big rock on top of him. The aftershock has stopped shaking, and everyone started to regain the balance. 

"Seungri, gwaenchana?!" Daesung asked. "Hyung, palliwa, get this damn thing off of him."

I saw them take off the rock from Seungri and helped him up. 

Yeri ran into action, "Gwaenchana, ahjussi?"

Seungri coughed, "I'm not an ahjussi, you brat."

We all laughed. 

Then he looked at me, "Park Chaeyoung, is that really you?"

I shrugged, "Why, who else would it be?"

"Do you guys know each other, or something?" Jiyong asked. 

"She doesn't know me," he laughed. "But I'm her 2 year older senior who became her classmate."

"Or do you mean the person who got retain in the last year of high school for 3 years straight, and got to be her classmate?" Yongbae laughed. 

He nodded, "Yeah. And she tutored me and a bunch of the underdogs math in the last semester."

I raised my brow, "Were you the person I smacked my book at and told you to get lost and try living a nice life in the dumpster?"

"Yeah," he chuckled and laughed. "Ow! Yeri-ssi!"

"Sorry, you sounded absolutely dumb in high school," she answered.

Seunghyun looked at Seungri, "So you studied in Australia?"

"Yeah, but only for high school."

"Dude, you sounded so dumb. Who fails mathematic 3 times in a row?" Jiyon laughed. 

"Yah, hyung!" 

"Anyway, anyway," Daesung clapped. "Let's get going before another aftershock appears. I heard by tomorrow afternoon, your medical team can finally head home."

I nodded, "Yeah, I was informed too. But when we get out, can I make a call in your military base?"

They all looked at Jiyong.

Jiyong shrugged, "These guys won't stop bothering me until I say yes, so Seungri-yah, please escort her there after."

These 5 men reminded me of him and his hyungs. 

Different ages but all about the laughs and the happiness. At times, the sadness and the guilt as well. 

Seungri tapped on my shoulder, "Make a call to that Koo Junhoe guy?"

"Ani, sunbae, someone better than him," I smiled.

He smiled, "Knew you'd find someone better than that guy. Honestly, when we met him in the class reunion, I didn't like him at all."

"Nobody liked him at first..."

"But you did."

"And I found someone better."

"Great, post on Instagram once in a while to get us updated," he laughed and ran to his hyungs.

Post about the number 1 CEO in Korea? Post about the number 8 CEO in the world? Post about the Top 2 'hottest' bachelor in Korea? Post about TCandler's Number 2 world's most handsome? Post about 5th rich young man in the world?

I don't think so. 

Besides, I don't love his status. I love him for him.
