Chaeyoung PoV

It's been a week or so since I had my half day rest day from work and then I was called again. There was no surgery schedule today, and sunbae announced that the hospital's surgery department will not be accepting patients that do not have severe injuries for a week.

At least, there's a little rest time for us but even if we said that, we continued accepting patients and doing operations because it's a doctors obligations. But the paramedics van has now spread the tasks for each hospital equally.

I'm glad about that. 

Earlier, I was paged along with Jihyo, Chanyeol, Yeri, Joy and Bambam for a meeting. It's around 9:30 AM and we were all rushing towards the Board Meeting room. I guess it was urgent? Besides, we were called to the Board's Meeting room!

About Jiyoon? She's doing well, it's the period in their school wherein their high school and middle school students have their activities and kindergarten students stay home for a week. So she's with either Jisoo or Jennie, Lisa is in London for some fashion week. 

I open the door to the meeting room first because they said I was the oldest between all of us so I have to do it. And that I look more doctor than the rest. All our nurses and residents weren't granted a rest day and I was the only one from our group who took a break. 

When we entered, all of the department heads, board members, shareholders, and Ms. Woo were seated in a wide table, and it was created well, the wood I mean. The assistant or whatever showed us to our seats and then we all sat down. 

As I looked around, the tension in the room seems to be high. And I noticed that Jungkook was there, seated next to sunbae and I also recognized the guys I saw a week ago who talked to sunbae. They were seated next to Jungkook. 

Their names...from the big metal plate..is...Park Ji Min and...Kim Tae Hyung. I know where this Park guy is coming from, in the news it says he's arranged to marry Kang Seulgi. Oh..my..God! Her niece was my patient! 

From the high tension and quietness, the medical chairman, Doctor Park Jin Young cleared his throat and cut the awkwardness in the room. 

"Everyone, do you know the reason why the board and I called for this emergency meeting?" he asked. 

No one replied but he answered, "Our hospital is going to give a voluntary surgical team and medical team to a country town in Hawaii."

"So? What's this got to do with us?" one of the department head's asked. 

"We've hand picked these doctors, by we, I mean, me and Ms. Woo, personally," Doctor JYP answered. "This is mandatory for every team. At least 1 or 2 department members will be taken, but the surgery team will be most affected."

"How so?" sunbae asked.

"You see..the country town is in need of doctors and a lot of children don't get to eat full meals in that side of Hawaii."

"And?" sunbae asked again.

Doctor Park sighed, "Doctor Kim, we know your department is the most brilliant. Be it surgery or check-up. Your department is in no need of flaws for it is built of perfection."

"How many doctors are you taking?" sunbae asked.

"3, one an attending, the other 3 are graduating residents."

I looked at the 6 of us. Of course, I'm the attending. Jihyo is a nurse and Chanyeol is a pharmacist/nurse. Joy is under Tzuyu's team. Bambam is a resident under gastro team. Yeri is in my department. 

"Who are they..?" sunbae asked.

Doctor Park pointed to us.

Sunbae looked at Doctor Park, "Park-sunbae...you know that Ms. Park is the brain of our system. She is the reason why we operate in order and well. Why choose her? There are so many other attendings! Tzuyu, Jackson, Suho, Minho, Taeyeon and so many more!"

"Excuse me but who is Ms. Park, Namjoon-ssi?" a department head asked. 

"Doctor Roseanne Park, please stand," sunbae said. 

I stood up, filled with nervousness. Yeri and the others signaled me an 'okay' sign but my nervousness isn't falling. 

"Introduce yourself to your sunbaes!" a department head commanded.

"Ah, ne. Annyeonghaseyo, I'm Doctor Roseanne Park an attending in the neurology department of the Surgery Team," I said, nervously. 

"Roseanne? So you're...American? Foreign?" a board member asked.

"No, sir. My parents are Korean but my nationality is Australian," they looked confused. "I was born and raised in Australia."

They understood better. Sunbae looked at us six worried and he was whispering something frequently to Jungkook and his friends seated next to him. 

"She is a prodigy in surgery!" Doctor Park preached. "A major in neurology but perfectly knows the parts of the body, inside or out, and keenly analysis the case with accurate hypothesis and inferring!"

"Park-sunbae, she is human, she has a daughter. We cannot just send her to a different place, she has a family," Namjoon sounded louder.

"Ms. Park, from the looks of it, you are in you're mid, no, late 20s?" I nodded at a department head. "And you're saying you have a daughter at that age?"

"Uhm, yes, I do," I answered.

One board member laughed, "What age were you? Father is a bar boy, isn't he?"

Another laughed, "Probably because you failed med school!"

More laughed at me and Jihyo placed her hand at my back and rubbed it slowly. Who are these whores to tell me who I am. Hell, I'm Roseanne Park. I'm no weakling.

Just when I was about to speak back, another person spoke ahead of me.

"Now, who are you to talk about Ms. Park like that, Mr. Cha Jung Soo? If you are to pick on doctors like this then it isn't wrong to expose your daily whores behind your wife, may I?" it was Jungkook. "At least this young woman can save lives, while you? You cause human trafficking!"

Everyone laughed at him. Did Jungkook just...defend me? 

"Board members, shareholders, we aren't acting professionally!" Ms. Woo exclaimed.

Kim Taehyung said, "Like you are? Who calls the shareholders for some useless meeting?"

I cleared my throat. They all looked at me. 

"Uh...I-I'm Roseanne Park, if you must know, I have been accelerated in high school twice in a row. I've graduated elementary and high school as class valedictorian and I've graduated med school as Summa Cum Laude," I said. "So please put your trust on me in this medical mission."

"But you're a mother, Ms. Park, you have patients, family and more. Yet you're still going to this..far-fetched medical mission?" Park Jimin asked.

"Yes, sir."

"Why?" he asked.

"I'm a doctor who took an oath to put people's lives before herself. And declining this, is like declining to save a person's life," I answered.

"Well said, Doctor Roseanne Park," Chairman Park clapped and the rest clapped as well. "Now, who agrees to put Ms. Park in-charge and head of the medical mission in Hawaii?"

That's right, Chaeyoung, you're meant for this. You were born for this field. And now you're getting the limelight of everything, good job, Chaeyoung.

"Before voting, how well can we trust her for approval?" a shareholder.

"My fiance's niece is having a surgery later, with Ms. Park as the surgeon, I suggest we watch her surgery and then we decide," Park Jimin said.

What. What...what did I just...what did I just hear?! A whole group of department heads, executives, shareholders, boards and more people are going to watch me do an easy surgery?! There's nothing to show off!!!!!

"What time is it scheduled, Ms. Park?" the guy who trashtalked me asked.

"After this meeting actually, we're setting her up for anaesthesia already," I replied. 

"Well, then. I believe our meeting is continued after this surgery," Chairman Park said and everybody rose from their seats. 

The 6 of us who were called to the meeting stayed at one corner of the room while everyone was getting out. We were talking about how that meeting was fucked, sorry for the language, up. 

Sunbae and his 3 friends showed up in front of us, while we were talking about how funny the guy who trash talked me was. I guess he's one of those people who are also VIP members of this hospital.

Well, duh, every member of this room, a while ago were VIP members of the hospital. 

"Chaeyoung-ssi," sunbae called out. "May we, uh, talk alone?"

My friends went ahead of me. I guess the surgery will be delayed a little because of that little twat Park Jimin. Not to be rude, but he's a twat. 

"Sunbae?" I asked. "What's it?"

"I'd like you to meet Park Jimin and Kim Taehyung. Branch CEOs of companies of the Jeon businesses," he said and I bowed to each one of them. "And, uh, not to be creepy but you sure about that medical mission? I'm concerned as your sunbae and as your friend from 7 years ago."

"Namjoon-sunbaenim, like what I said, I took an oath years ago," I replied.

"Yes, but you don't understand. That place is like...a survival show."

I folded my arms, "Now you're being creepy."

"Aish, jinjja. Whatever you think this mission is, I want you to research and dig in more information about it," he walked towards the exit door. 

"AISH. JEONGMAL!!" I punched the air until someone cleared his throat behind me. 

Oh, shit it was those 3 reach guys! I turned around and bowed towards them. 

"Oh, yeah, Chaeyoung that was great of you, a while ago," Jungkook told me.

"Thanks for defending me," I said. 

"Nah, that idiot has a loud mouth, anyway."

"Yah, both of you! Sounds like you both like each other!" Taehyung said.

"No, of course not, hyung. She's got a daughter," Jungkook says. 

"And, Ms. Ro-Rose--"

"Just call me Chaeyoung," I cut him off.

"Chaeyoung, I hope you do well in the surgery of my fiance's niece and I'm sorry for using that as an example to push you through this mission," Jimin says.

I awkwardly laugh because I wanted him to be sorry. He, out of all people, my most hate! Why?! Because he's a Park that's rich and I'm not!! It's damn unfair!

"Okay..I gotta go, if that's all you have to say," I tell them and quickly ran out of the door when Jihyo went inside the room telling me that Bona's vitals are going down.

And before I reached her room, I knew that surgery is her last option right now and why the hell did I delay it, even for a few minutes?! Every minute counts, Park Chaeyoung, understand that, will you?!

Good thing Vernon got her out of the room because when we were in the hallway, her bed was being rushed to the surgery room. 

"Call my neurology team," I tell Jihyo. 

We split ways, she ran towards the nurse station to page my neurology team and I ran towards the surgeon rooms to change for surgery clothes. 

I quickly change into the blue garments and placed my hair net on. This is the most tense surgery I've ever done. And on a child? Do or die situation, huh? I hate those kinds of stuff but I'm always in a point to do that.

After changing, I went to the sink in front of the operation room and washed my arms. 

Chaeyoung, wake up, you can do this. Wake up, Chaeyoung. I caught my breath from the running and calmed myself down. The transparent windows of the operation room showed me a huge bunch of people watching from the observatory room. 

All of them were quiet and I entered the operation room. My nurses helped me with tying the mask on my back and we silently waited for Vernon to give us the signal to operate.

The young girl's hair was razored off, completely so we can do our surgery on her. Her vitals were alright thanks to some medicine. 

"You may now operate," Vernon tells me.

I begin to drill the young girl's cranium open. 

"Microscope," I said.

Then one of the nurses pulled down an equipment from above my head and I peeked my eyes towards the microscope so I can get a better view of the brain. It's often hard to search for the corpus callosom. 

"Yeri, insert it," I tell her so she can also be familiar with the feeling of inserting instrument in the brain.

Jungkook PoV

My God this is so disgusting!

This doctor named Yeri inserted some long metal rod inside the brain of Bona and it just didn't make sense at all. It was so disgusting. 

"Are they doing well, hyung? I mean, I don't understand any of this, myself," I asked Namjoon.

"Chaeyoung's the master of this, of course she's doing well," he answers. 

"What are they doing right now? Why does it look like she's having a hard time?"

"Because, you see that MRI scan there?" 

"Yeah."

"There's this 'c' shape. Chaeyoung's always hated searching for that because it's too much of a job. And she's looking for it right now, considering the MRI of Ms. Kang, the 'c' shape Chaeyoung's looking for is far too small to be seen."

"So, this 'c' shape she's looking for what will she do with it?"

"She's doing a split-brain surgery. And that 'c' shape is the core of her surgery, without looking for it, she cannot operate completely."

There was a bit of a silence between the doctors and us here in the observatory room. We were all watching a surgery that's way disgusting to be describe. The blood seems to be spitting out of those weird curly pink stuffs. 

Chaeyoung was sweating and often the nurse would wipe her sweat. She would shake her head to the right often. Is she tired? But from what I've heard, she hasn't been getting a lot of patients because of her, sort of, rest day thing. 

"Professor! Gwaenchana?!" I focused to the operation room.

Chaeyoung PoV

"Professor! Gwaenchana?!" Soobin, my first year resident asked.

My eyes were drowsy a bit, but why? 

"Yah, Park Chaeyoung!" I heard Vernon's voice yell at me. 

"Chaeyoung, get a hold of yourself, calm down!" Jihyo told me. 

What's going on? I'm doing my job!

My hand was stopped by Yeri. 

"Thanks, Yeri," Vernon says. "Rose, what's happened to you?"

I looked towards Vernon. What? What's happened to me? Why is he asking me that? Of course, nothing has happened to me, I'm fine!

"ROSEANNE PARK!" he shouted. "Calm down, your focus should be where?"

"On the patient," I answered.

"Correct. So why is you're head up in the sky?" 

"Mianhada..." I looked down. 

"Chaeyoung-ah? Is everything fine?" sunbae asked.

"We're alright Namjoon-sunbae," Vernon answered.

These are one of my moments in the surgery room that only Vernon, Jihyo, Yeri or any of my students can identify. My head is not on the patient, but my hand is and that's just scary so they have to shout at me to get me off my imagination. 

"Gwaenchana, professor, stay calm," Yeri said. 

I breathed in. Come on, Chaeng. One hour, you have one hour. You can remove it. 

After hours of concentration towards the surgery, I finally got the piece of the brain out and told my second year residents to finish it off with Yeri. Jihyo and I walked out of the operation room. 

What the hell is wrong with me?! Why did I have those weird imaginations in my head! It's happened once and I did not make that happen twice!

I grab hold of the sink and took numerous of deep breaths.

"Yah! Are you okay?!" Jihyo asked. "Why did you have that? It's...unusual."

"I..I don't know. Maybe because I tired myself too much before that."

"Hey, stop overworking yourself."

"You too, then."

"Come on, let's grab something to eat."

We walked out together and claps from the VIP members were given to me. A bunch of congratulations here and there, so and so forth. 

Jihyo and I was about to excuse ourselves from the crowd until Jungkook pushed in our way. 

"That was amazing of you, again," he says. "And congratulations."

"Thank you," I answered.

My friend and I walked away from the OR and to the cafeteria. She was laughing about how Lay got to beg for her forgiveness the other night, so on and so forth. 

As we walked towards the cafeteria she was talking about love and the feeling of it and that I should have it too, etc etc. 

You know, the normal Jihyo I have. Besides, we're both Parks, and we're bestfriends in this hospital. 

"I hear wedding bells for Ms. Park Chaeyoung and Sir Jeon Jungkook!" she laughs off.

"You dumbhead," I flicked my finger on her head.

"Ow! What was that for!"
