The next morning Mrs. Choi called Minho. He was at his friend's house, sleeping on the couch in an abnormal manner. His one of his leg on the arm of the couch and one off the couch, both of his hands were over his head and salvia all over his chin and his face.

His phone kept on ringing, but he didn't notice as he was lost in the world of his dreams that he didn't hear it ring, Mrs. Choi got frustrated as he didn't pick up his phone and even cursed him, " what is this Jerk doing?" old ladies and their temper.

In the meantime Jin Ah had gotten up and started to get ready. She took a bath and after coming out wrapped a towel around her hair in order for it to dry. Then she sat in front for her mirror as her eyes met her reflection in the mirror she stopped and just started to look at her. She took a deep breathe. All, the things she learned yesterday came to her mind. Her illness, her company, her aunt, Minho everything came to her mind. She just smirked and folded her arms, Ahhh Jin Ah its hard isn't? She asked herself.

At that moment she got a call from Dr. Kang. She was hesitant to pick It up as nothing good ever came from his call. She finally picked it up exhaled sharply before answering; "hello" said Jin Ah in a firm tone. He replied in as soft tone, "how are you feeling?" She chuckled slightly, "better than the person that is about to die in a year" she replied in a teasing tone. Dr. Kang just sighed as he wasn't impressed with her dark humor, "well meet me in the hospital I have to run more tests and give you medicines", before she could say anything she heard Mrs. Choi come she quickly told him she will be there and hung up.

"Young lady" called Mrs. Choi from behind the door. "Ah yes" she answered in a nervous tone. Mrs. Choi felt something was up, "is everything alright?" asked Mrs. Choi in a concerning tone as she came inside the room. "Why wouldn't it be?" she answered with a fake smile. Mrs. Choi cleaned the sweat on Jin Ah forehead, Jin Ah flinched a little by the sudden touch.

Mrs. Choi looked at her with questioning eyes; she just smiled and asked "why are you here? Do you need something?" she asked so she could divert the attention. Mrs. Choi let it go and said, "Why yes I called Minho", as Jin Ah heard his name she felt something which she couldn't understand and it made her uneasy.

She just nodded encouraging Mrs. Choi to continue, "He isn't picking up, I got his address I will go to him and bring him myself". Jin Ah paused for a second and without even thinking; "I will go and bring him" the words fell out of her mouth like that. This shocked Mrs. Choi to the point her eyebrows were joined together, "you will go?" she asked in a surprised tone.

"But you don't even like going to weddings!", Mrs. Choi exclaimed. Jin Ah rather confused herself, "I know I don't know why I said it but I will go". Mrs. Choi was rather scared and surprised by sudden changes in her.

Mrs. Choi spoke, "but young lady your work. I mean you never miss a work day". Jin Ah heard this, as she was busy selecting what should she wear. That when hit her, why was she missing her work for him? And selecting something nice to wear, "he is nobody to me" she thought.

Jin Ah turned to face Mrs. Choi as she looked at her she sighed and said in a light tone, "Because I want to". This shocked her more than it did Mrs. Choi. She looked at Jin Ah her mouth slightly open, "I will leave it you then". She placed the address on the dressing table and went out.

As she left, Jin Ah collapsed on the chair, all confused; "Just why I did that? maybe Dr. Kang is mistaken maybe I don't have a tumor I am going crazy" she exclaimed as she looked at herself in the mirror. Her eyes travelled to the address on the table and she sighed and face palmed herself.

On the other hand Minho had finally conquered his dream land. He was so excited that he fell from the couch with a loud thud. His friend said in an irritated voice, "Oh jerk keep it down some people have to sleep". He got up rubbed the back of his head as it was itching because of the fall, stretched and looked outside of the big window that allowed seeing the area of Gangnam.
