A Blessing In Disguise

News

Chaeyoung had been experiencing a lot of pain but couldn't know its source. She thought it could be because of stress but it kept getting worse so she decided to give her health the necessary attention. When she arrived at the hospital, she went through many tests to figure out the reason behind the pain. She wanted to make sure she's fine and healthy. She waited outside for the result and was lost look. For some reason, she didn't have a good feeling about it, and this bad feeling was confirmed when the doctor came out and called her name. With shaky legs, Chaeyoung went to the doctor's office and sat down feeling extremely anxious.

"Doctor, is everything okay?" She asked.

"I would like to say yes but.." the doctor hesitated a bit "I don't want you to worry because I'll do my best to help you but you're suffering from cystic fibrosis"

"Doctor, you're scaring me? What is this?"

"it's a disorder that causes damage to the lungs" the doctor explained "the good thing is that only one lung is damaged so we can do something about it before it's too late "

"and what should we do?" Chaeyoung asked with pleading eyes.

"the only way to heal from this is by transplant"

Transplant? The worst case Chaeyoung imagined is surgery but transplant..?

"You're saying it as if it's easy to do that" Chaeyoung started to cry.

"I don't want you to stress out. The only challenge we're facing right now is finding a donor"

"What? How can I find a donor?" she cried even more.

"Chaeyoung-shi, please don't cry. You should be happy that you're wealthy enough to afford for this. Other people sit back and wait for death because they can't afford for it"

"I know but will there be any donors?" she asked eagerly

"of course, you don't need to worry about that" the doctor reassured "I will check with the transplant hospitals and keep you updated"

Chaeyoung left the hospital feeling all depressed. Many questions were stressing her but she just wanted to have some rest and forget about everything until this donor shows up. She started her car and drove to Twice's dorm to meet the girls. Once there, she immediately she went straight to Jeongyeon and Nayeon's room to talk to them. The sight of them made Chaeyoung burst into tears and ran into their arms.

"What's wrong Chaeyoung-ah? What happened?" Jeongyeon asked worriedly.

"Unnie, I'm very sick" Chaeyoung said in a quavering voice.

"what? what are you talking about?" Nayeon hugged Chaeyoung tightly.

" I have a serious disease and need a lung transplant"

Chaeyoung's confession made her unnies' hearts sink. They felt horrible by the thought that they might lose Chaeyoung but they tried to act strong and make her feel better.

"It's fine Chaeng-ah, we already have a solution. You're going through a transplant so it's fine" Jeongyeon said.

"Yes, there's nothing to cry for" Nayeon added "You're a strong girl you shouldn't cry like this. You know now there's a remedy for everything so don't burden yourself by thinking about it"

Chaeyoung poured out her heart to her unnies until she had no energy left. She drifted to sleep in their arms after asking them to keep the matter a secret so no one has to worry but what she didn't know was that there's an envious presence listening to every word they said and they're ready to spill the beans.
