Cina's point of view

The hospital is swarming today, its never a chill day but today is fucking ridiculous. A man with a knife in his forehead is brought into our trauma unit. He's screaming to the top of his lungs making me wince.

Santana marches beside me looking just as stressed out as me. The psych word has had escapees all day. The psych nurses are over it and YangYang's scheduled is book solid just like Sannie's.

"Doctor Park-Kang can you sign these?"
"Doctor Park-Kang did you see these permits for these?"
"Doctor Park-Kang.."

Holy fuck I need a minute.

Nurse: Patient in room twelve is acting..-
Me: Mace him or sedate him. Whatever works.

She sighs as I continue my journey to the white board. Holy mother of surgeries, I rub my temples. Ten rushes down the hallway pausing to glance at the board.

Ten: Why the hell is everyone breaking a bone? Drink your milk!
Santana: Alright so its been a rough few days. We all are on doubles, hungry and want to cry.
Me: But?
Santana: Oh there is no buts, we're in hell.

Ten and I whine.

Me: Let me get ready for heart surgery. You guys?
Ten: Shoulder surgery.
Santana: Evaluations.
Me: Be careful, last time didn't go so well.

I look at the small cut under her eye.

Santana: Yeah, goodluck team!

Seeing the familys' look of relief after I tell them the surgery went great is always the highlight of my day and reminds me why I do what I do.

I walk down the hallway thanking the RN's, LPN's, CNA's and all the rest of my team for what they do. I couldn't run a successful hospital without them.

The vending machine options disappoint me and reminds me I need to tell Seonghwa. I settle for a bag of pretzels slightly yawning.

Someone covers my eyes.

"Guess who?"

Me: My husbands don't use strawberry body spray so.

Raven chuckles as I turn around.

Me: How's your day?
Raven: Popping bones all-day is always fun. How are you chief? You look exhausted.
Me: I am but I'm hanging in there. Rin was over the other night for dinner with the boys, it amazes me how much she looks like you.

She smiles.

Rin: She does. I told her just don't ever be like me, Wonnie is a great guy. Me at her age would've fucked that up.
Me: You live and you learn so your kids can know what not to do.
Rin: How's Hwasang and Jennie?
Me: Hwasang is a complete simp over Hana. Jennie and Chenle concerns me.
Rin: Oh?
Me: Jennie is just like Yeosang in every way.

We both laugh.

Ten and Santana files out some paperwork at the counter with the nurses.

Me: Made it?
Ten: Another beautiful day to save lives.
Santana: Alright now McDreamy.
Ten: Is that a husband number eight invitation?

Santana slaps his arm playfully.

Me: Speaking of your husbands. Starship called yesterday to schedule all their physicals, Jooheon is behind in a few shots.

She rolls her eyes mumbling under her breath.

Santana: Get your sedation needle ready Ten.
Raven: He's afraid of needles?
Me: Terrified. It is hilarious to witness.
Santana: Until you have a 5'10, grown ass idol screaming to the top of his lungs running through the hospital with his ass out of his hospital gown.
Raven: Really vivid.
Santana: This happened a few months ago.
Raven: Oh my God really?
Ten: The restraints went well.

As soon as I get home I see Seonghwa sitting on the couch icing his shoulder. He leans his head up and smiles at me.

Seonghwa: Hi baby, how was your day?
Me: Busy. Are you okay?
Seonghwa: I through out my shoulder.
Me: How?

Yeosang brings in a cup of tea for him.

Yeosang: Chasing San.

Jesus Christ.

I sit in between them on the couch holding both their hands.

Me: I love you guys.

Yeosang: We love you too princess. You okay?
Me: Yeah just a tiring day. How's things at the art gallery?
Yeosang: Pretty mellow. Spring is coming so it'll be a lot of people signing up for classes.
Me: That's great! I'll be sure to visit one of these days.

He kisses my cheek.

Seonghwa: Yeo rub my shoulder
Me: Can you rub my feet after?
Yeosang: You two are spoiled!

We laugh.
