"Stupid four eyes, thinks he's all that- i wasn't scared of him! I was just worried for my safety when the lift suddenly stopped! Yeah! If he said one more thing to me, I would have squared up!" You exclaimed with confidence, trying to convince the reception nurse in the A&E ward what you going through (it was mostly you trying to convince yourself).

The poor nurse could only smile through the confusion while trying to get her work done as well.

You're scaring her.

Huh? Scaring who? The nurse? Nahhhhhh she loves listening!

That's what people who talk too much say.

What- hey!

Instead of wasting your time yapping, why don't you try and break in to Namjoon's office?

I already tried, he's always locking the door. Also, you still have yet to explain to me what exactly are you.

It's best if you didn't know right away. It would only confuse you and right now, we have other important matters to deal with – like you joining that surgery.

What am I supposed to do?! If I don't join, there's a chance that the twins may not make it and the investors' party will be for nothing but if I do, then the twins have a higher chance of making it and the hospital will get loads of money but there's a chance they'll find out about my ability...

You've already wasted time caring about other people, why don't you do it to yourself?

You stayed quiet at this question. Helping people is all you've really known. Its not like others could see if you were in pain and could come and help.

What help did you need anyway? You could take care of yourself, just like you had always done. Come to think of it, you've never hurt yourself. You never scraped a knee, cut a finger, fell off a bike... there was no need for anyone's help at all.

"...Doctor L/N?" You were brought back from reality as you realised that you were in the way of a patient trying to talk to the nurse and you immediately moved away.

"A-Ah sorry!" You moved away and left them to their own business before walking around the waiting area for a bit. There were no serious accidents thus far so you could just chill around while the peace lasted.

"S'cuse me!" An old man yelled behind you, making you move to the side for the cleaner to get by.

"Woah!" He was very quick on his feet as he nearly hit you with his trolley but you managed to dodge in the nick of time.

You watched with disbelief as he carried on like nothing happened until you realised where he was going.

The old cleaner reached for the keys around his belt and proceeded to skim through them for the correct one before inserting it in to Namjoon's office door.

Your jaw dropped and a light bulb appeared above your head.

Trying to act natural, you straightened yourself out and swiftly made your way over while looking like you had other business.

Once you made it to the door way, you cleared your throat to get the cleaner's attention while he was in the midst of pushing the trolley inside.

"Oh? Can I help you doctor?" You eyed him suspiciously before circling around him with judgey eyes.

The poor old man began to sweat under pressure, worried that he was in trouble of some sort and he voiced out his thoughts.

"...am I in trouble?" You stopped where you were and knocked on the trolley.

"Do you have a licence for this vehicle?" The cleaner had to take a second to process before repeating your question.

"...licence? Vehicle?" Rolling your eyes, you crossed your arms to seem more intimidating.

"That has four wheels and is a form of transportation. It's a vehicle sir, do you have a licence for it or not?" He looked down at his cleaning supplies before returning his lost gaze towards you.

"...I never needed a licence for it"

"Tsk tsk, someone hasn't been reading the new rules for sanitation. Do you even look at your emails?"

"...I don't get emails-" you gasped, exaggerating the situation drastically and making sure he felt like he did wrong.

"You don't get- oh wow! Everyone gets emails! Do you know how much trouble you're in?!"

"I-I didn't know! I swear-" you raised your hand to silence him.

"Look, since I'm a good Samaritan, I'll let you off this one time" the cleaner sighed in relief, happy that he was going to keep his job.

"But, I will need to confiscate those keys and the trolley"

"W-What? Why?"

"You're not holding a licence! What if another doctor finds you like this without a licence? Do you think they'll let you off like I did?" He shook his head vigorously, thinking that he was lucky to have been found out by you instead.

Quickly, he reached for his chain of keys and handed them over to you as well as his trolley.

"Thank you for your cooperation- ah! Which key is to lock Chief Kim's door? We wouldn't want to leave it open" you watched as he pointed at one in particular that had a blue line across from it.

"It's this one. Thanks for being so nice to me-"

"Yeah yeah, run along before someone else finds you" and just like the wind, he left to the changing rooms.

As soon as he was out of sight, you couldn't help but jump on the spot and squeal at your big W.

You got the keys.

I sure did! Go Y/N~ Go Go Go Y/N~

"Good afternoon Chief Kim" the reception bowed at the familiar sight of Namjoon entering the lobby, making you stop dancing and realise the situation you were in.

Thankfully, he was too busy looking at his tablet to notice you and you quickly closed the door to his office and pushed the trolley out of sight along with you.

Namjoon finally looked up to enter his office and took out his own personal key to enter. He went in and found nothing to be different, carrying on as if nothing had happened.

You punched the air in victory from where you hid around the corner before pulling out the blue key leading to the gold mine that was the Chief's office.

What you didn't know was that the whole time you had an audience.

Taehyung made note of what happened before turning to leave.
