Next morning, Han drives Amy to the sports club in a jolly mood while thinking of the fun he is going to enjoy, smiling sneakingly. Lee is planning for his date, booking movie tickets when he saw Han and Amy coming together. He thought Amy will come dressed up for the "Date" but she enter in her track suit. A bit confused Lee directly asks Amy about their date plan. This is when Han hands him his date. Amy gently smiles at Lee telling him that she herself searched and picked the best quality dates only for him. Lee is abacked with this unexpected turn and tries to comprehend the whole situation. Han picks one date and put it in his mouth teasing him by asking to have a taste of it and tell whether he liked it or not while passing a cunning smile. Lee looks at Han with an irritated look but tries to smile for her crush and the person who turned this whole situation into a hilarious moment, Amy, remained aloof.
Later Han hands Amy her bag and leaves for hospital. On the other hand, Lee understand that Amy knows nothing about couple date, romance and things, so he decides to become her love teacher cum sports trainer. She spends her whole day in club learning squash, swimming and boxing while Han is at work.
It's 6pm. Ham arrives to pick Amy but he saw Amy asleep on sofa in Lee's office, worn out from tiredness. Lee insists that he should wait till she wakes up since she is bone-tired and its not good to wake her right away. But Han has already seen Lee enjoy watching her asleep, so he couldn't hold his rage and picks Amy in his arm and leaves right away. Frustrated Lee comments on his back that he always shows off as if he is the only busy person in the world.
Han stops the car on reaching home and just when he was about to hold Amy in his arms, she opens her eyes, that startles him. Amy finds herself in the car and looks at Han, who explains that since she already ordered him not to disturb her during sleep, he tried to bring her home without interrupting her sleep. Amy comes out of the car yawning and stretches her body to shake off tiredness, feeling fresh, alongside making Han stare at her with a flushed face.
At home, its study time and Han is teaching her mathematics this time. Amy has already covered syllabus upto high school and is planning to prepare for CSAT. For her, math and science are most interesting subjects that she loves to study and manages to memorise very fast because science is all about nature. She thinks if we have good observations of surrounding, we can easily relate it with what we have learnt so far, hence will never forget once memorised. As for math, its all about formulas. If we are able to crack how it works, then there is no problem we cannot solve and more interestingly Amy is obsessed with numbers. When Han teaches her, she proudly shows off her talent by solving some problems in her mind without using pen and paper and telling him answers right away. Astonished Han but mocks her by giving her tough and tougher problems to solve and at one point she surrenders. Afterall, she is not a gifted girl. She needs to learn in order to excel.
Tired Han sleeps on the chair with his head down on the table when Amy was solving test papers. After solving her questions, she looks up at Han to find out that he fell asleep. She thought that she should put him to bed how he brought her home without disturbing her sleep. So she put him on her back, carefully brought him to his room and put him to the bed and gently placed pillow below his head and covered him with the blanket.
Next morning, Han wakes up and became flummoxed to find himself on bed since the last thing he remembers is that he fell asleep while teaching Amy.
"There is no way that she put me on the bed, without my notice."
Bemused, he gets up to find Amy in her room where she is sleeping on her bed, positioned on abdomen with book below her head instead of a pillow.
"Looks like she slept while reading. Atleast she should sleep on her back not abdomen.
(With a soft voice) Amy. Amy"
He calls her name slowly just to check if she is in deep sleep. Thankfully, thus time she woke up nicely. Amy asks why he is here. Han just tells her (in an awkward manner) to wake up since its morning. She needs to have breakfast and medicine on time atleast. She comes down and diligently eats her breakfast but denies to take medicines.

Amy: "Since I am home, I stopped getting headaches and don't have sleeping problems either.I am perfectly fine now. I don't think there is any need to take medicines anymore. "

Han: "Then, why don't you just get a full health check up and let me decide whether you need medicines or not. "

Amy rebuffed and took the medicine instead. Curiously, Han asks her reason to fear going hospital where she spent her 4 months. She replies that on the day when she left the hospital alone, she saw too many people bathed in blood, severely injured. The scene was horrible. It made me realise that maximum people suffers death in the hospital. So she can't live in such a horrible place. That day she understood why people requests to leave the hospital as soon as they recover. Han laughs and tell her that it's a place where we save patient's life. It's a sacred place where mother gives birth to a child as well. She was brought to life in that hospital too. She repudiated all facts though.
Amy ( bawling at Han): "I don't know anything. I hate seeing blood. It makes me uncomfortable. I will never ever ever go to that hospital. Never."
Han( worriedly): "Okay. Okay. I understood. Calm down, please.
I won't even talk about it in future. Take a deep breath and relax. Okay"

Finally, she calms down. Han looks at her with a concerning face. Since she came home, she persistently showed improvement and he thought that apart from regaining her memory, soon she will resume her normal life. But she still shows panic disorder. He know there are some keys triggering her anger. Only if he could crack it down. Only if he had few hints about her past life. Only if he had been smart enough to read her thoughts. He is observing her and trying to put every psychological theories that applies to human behaviour, in order to understand her better, but why she fits in exceptions. The more he try to understand her, the more it becomes harder for him to believe in all psychological aspects and theories.
He even planned to decrease her medicinal dose but looking at her now, probably she need more time to recover fully.
Han changes the topic and asks Amy about last night. When she finished explaining him, he stood up awestruck by the thought that she managed to put him on bed without interrupting his sleep. Or is this him who slept like a log? He still wonders.
Han: "Why you did that? You should had wake me up."
Amy: "You even brought me home while I was asleep. I thought I should do the same."
Han: But you..(are a girl. He stopped before he could complete the word.)
[In his mind- Indeed, action teaches better than words. She just tried to help me like I did. If she can do it, why I should limit her actions justifying that she is a girl and make her feel weak. She is yet to explore her power. I shoul better not restrict her. ]
"Thank you for help"(with an awkward smile)
