«NARRATION»
It was around four in the morning when the alarm went off. It was just a regular day for Jungkook; he stayed up on the bed, his brain rewinding the few scenes of his dreams as he ran a hand through his disheveled hair, slowly trying to wake up.
Being a fourth year resident especially in the emergency department only meant that he had to compromise his free schedules to attend the patients. On an average, he worked nearly sixteen hour shifts everyday, taking breaks from time to time, although he was willing to work more.
No, it wasn't the case of money; he wasn't paid on an hourly basis anyway, but probably because living in the hospital and talking with the patients was much better than going back to an empty household every night. It wasn't just his dedication for the work; he felt a certain sense of pride and merry whenever he would see the smiles of the families after the patients were out of danger, seemingly because thats what doctors do: they save lives and are regarded with the prestige of angels themselves.
Perhaps there was another reason too, maybe a certain someone he admiredㅡ
No.
It wasn't the time to dream again.
Drifting away from his thoughts, he took a warm shower before he drove off to the hospital situated a few miles away from his quarters.
The atmosphere inside the hospital was in complete contrast to the serenity outside. There was a hustle of injured people being rushed into stretchers, the elevators alarming in readiness as the medical crash carts were loaded in. Hospitals were perhaps one of the only few places that radiated with activity at all times.
Pushing through, making his way into the trauma centre, he scanned the room filled with new faces, some bleeding wounds being treated by nurses. "Jeon!" He heard his last name being called out, to find his fellow trainee friend Jung Jaehyun waving at him.
"Its a relief you're finally here! Can you look after the little girl at bed 3 until Dr Min comes by? Apparently the poor child suffered an accidental impact and I'm currently called into the paramedics..."
"Okay, okay let me clean up first." Jaehyun nodded before rushing out from the ER as Jungkook changed into a comfortable pair of blue scrubs as he kneeled before the sobbing child.
"Hi there!" He flashed a friendly grin as the girl slowly smiled, being reminded of her bunny soft toy that resembled the doctor's smile.
Jungkook stared at the cute six year old; trying to remember if he had seen her anywhere prior to this.
"Your name's Minjoo?" He questioned with his hand resting under his chin as the girl mouthed a yes. His guess was correct; some days back he saw the child with her mother who was admitted into the OB/GYN for her second born.
"It h-hurts." She whimpered, her hand oozing with blood as some glass pieces were left unattended. Jungkook frowned a concern.
"Can I have a look, hmm?" He politely asked, as the girl slowly stretched her arm out for him to wash the wound.
