two worlds: jaeyong

"taeyong, taeyong!!"

a frantic doyoung runs into the medicube, shouting out his friend's name, who also comes running out of the supplies room, face visibly stressed at his friend's behavior.

"what, what's happening?"

"saalima, she's coming here"

"why is she coming..." taeyong starts but that's when an important piece of info strucks his mind and he has the same alert go off. he then grabs their team walkie talkie and calls the other two.

"donghyuck, sicheng, i need you guys to be having an operating room set up in the next 3 minutes. now."

and just as taeyong and doyoung rush out, the resident and nurse burst in panting.

"what's the emergency," sicheng asks in between his gasps.

"saalima is here, i think we're going to have to deliver today, meaning that sicheng, you're the one doing it," taeyong explains fast as he and doyoung take a wheelchair out.

the two sprint up to the dining hall, where a truck arrives and jaehyun helps out saalima, who's clutching on to her stomach while her husband takes her other hand.

"doctor lee, nice to see you again," and taeyong was amazed how even when she is in the worst pain a woman could be in, the female could still be so polite.

"saalima, it hurts a lot, i know. but i need you to get on this wheelchair," doyoung instructs. the woman nods and when she sits, rashif starts panicking at how her breaths became even harder. taeyong sees taeil exit the truck and goes to him.

"contractions?"

"they were 5 minutes apart and last 10 seconds but right now, i think it's at 3 minutes and each being 20 seconds. she needs to be in the delivery room now," the soldier answers while peering at saalima.

"then we have no time to waste."

donghyuck and sicheng are both all geared up and the nurse has a little bassinet ready for the baby next to his seat.

"taeyong, help rashif get into the scrubs as well and doyoung, have an epidural ready by the time so we can start in 30 minutes," he helps to move the wheelchair inside the operating room and kneels before the woman.

"from this point on, i want you to know that it will be harder but just know in the end, it's all for the baby," sicheng strokes the woman's hand as she gives a teary nod. "good, now i'm going to leave the room for 5 minutes and can you change into this gown for me during that time?"

she takes the article of clothing in her hands and sicheng immediately exits the room to give her privacy.

"doctor, will my wife and baby be ok," rashif rushes to the nurse with a concerned look.

"we are doing the best we can but i want to reassure you that you came to the perfect place. saalima is currently changing inside and then doyoung will administer the medicine to her," he explains the procedure. "we will also ask that you stay 3 days after today so we can check the conditions of both the mother and baby."

the man just nods and stares at the doors to the operating room.

"hyung, i got the water getting heated up and blankets prepared," donghyuck approaches with the linens in his hands. "and doyoung hyung wanted me to tell you he has the shot ready."
