CHAPTER 28: Friends first

Two days after, Jona and Johan went to Daeil hospital together with his mom. While they were waiting for Johan and his mom’s operation, they were talking.

“Jona, I think what you did to us is too much. I don’t know how I can repay you.”, Johan’s mom said.

“No, it’s okay ma’am. Johan saved me a lot of times. This is how I should repay him.”

“But still…. Thank you, Jona. This really means a lot to us.”, Johan smiled.

“Yes. He’s right.”, Johan’s mother also smiled.

“You can enter now ma’am, sir.”, the lady said and opened the door for them.

“Good morning!”, Dr. Choi Won Seok greeted them with a smile.

“So these are the persons you want me to treat, Jona?”

“Yes Doc.”

“Alright! Which one of you should I treat first?”

“My mother”

“My son”

Both Johan and his mother said simultaneously which made the doctor confused. Jona just smiled and said to the doctor.

“I think it would be better if you’ll treat Mrs. Seong first, Doc.”

“B-but.. How about my son?”

“Don’t worry ma’am, he’ll get treated after you. Besides, Johan have been waiting and wishing for this to happen for many years.”

“O-okay”, Johan’s mother hesitated for a while.

“This way ma’am.”, the doctor then guided Mrs. Seong and started the operation.

“You’re amazing, Jona! You succeed on getting my mother treated for just a short time while I’ve been waiting for years just to make this happen.”, Johan complimented.

“W-well… I was kinda desperate so I searched and went to every hospitals that has a well-known ophthalmologist.”, Jona blushed.

'She's cute', Johan thought and smiled secretly.

An hour later, it was Johan’s turn. After both Johan and his mother was treated, the doctor advised them to stay at the hospital for a while until he’ll remove the bandages in their eyes which both Johan and his mother agreed on.

When the doctor removed the bandages on their eyes, they then opened their eyes and Johan’s mother felt like tearing up.

“J-Johan? My son?”, Johan’s mother touched Johan’s face while crying.

“You’ve grown so much! You became more handsome!”

“Of course! I’m your son after all”, Johan smiled and held his mother’s hand.

“I’m sorry for not being able to take good care of you through these years”, Johan’s mom started sobbing.

“Mom.. We’re supposed to be happy and grateful right now.”, Johan consoled his mom.

“Ah, right! Where’s Jona?”

“There’s Jona mom”

Johan’s mother was delighted to see Jona.

“Oh my! You’re so pretty!”

Jona blushed for his mom’s compliment.

“Thank you, ma’am”

“No. No. We’re the ones who should thank you, Jona.”, Johan’s mom smiled and held Jona’s hands.

“And also… just call me mom”

Jona blushed even more.

“Eh? P-pardon?”

“From now on, you can call me mom. I know you’ll take our family name soon.”

“Mom!”, Johan’s face also turned red.

“Eh? Isn’t she your girlfriend son?”

“N-no.. It’s not that mom- W-were friends.”

Jona can feel her heart broke after hearing what Johan said. She went silent and looked down to hide her sadness. Johan noticed the sadness Jona felt so he continued.

“I mean.. We're friends FIRST.”

First?

Jona raised her head and looked at Johan whose face is as red as tomato.

“Oh my! My son’s a big boy now.”, Johan’s mother giggled.

After that, they left the hospital. Johan went to his old home together with his mother while Jona went back to her apartment.

Thank God! I finally succeeded to save Johan

Jona smiled while lying at the bed, facing the ceiling. She felt relieved that all of her efforts has not gone to waste.
