Tae POV: *look left and right* I just have to grab my coffee without make any sound.
??: Excuse me...
Tae: Yes?
Patient: Can you tell me where is Mr. Kura's hospital room is?
Tae: Uh, *confuse* about that...
Patient: You're a doctor, aren't you?
Tae: uhm... Yeah that...

Patient: *gasp* Dr. Jeon! *bow* Thank you so much! *left*
Tae POV: He helped me, so I should thank him.
Tae: *smile* Hey, um... Thank you!
JK: *cold tone* ...YOU. You're a mortician right?
Tae: *Jolt* Ah-Yes... *giving his card* I've been asked to take over the department here from my mortuary. I'm Kim Taehyung. Not to be rude... but we haven't met before, have we?
JK: *shout* Of course not! I wouldn't have any use for a mortician. would I? I'm not that unskilled.
Tae: *shock* I-I am sorry!
JK: - ...since you're the mortician, while you're roaming around in that white coat... why don't you learn some background information about the hospital instead of being completely unable to explain where a hospital room is! *turn and left the place*
Tae POV: *sadly pout* He didn't even take my card... I'm not unskilled... This hospital operates 24x7, we mortician stay overnight wherever we're contracted. We wear white coats like doctors so that we don't get confuse with patients or visitors. *sigh* I want to became a novelist... it was only a month ago that I quit the publishing company job because my family use to work as mortuary and they wanted me to do as too... Today is my first day, shouldn't it be okay for a newcomer to not know things? NO! What Dr. Jeon said was right. Newcomer or old-timer, I should know about the place where I'm working before taking over.
[While thinking, Tae stopped at Hospital reception where he saw 2 beautiful nurses and receptionist]
Tae: am... Hi... myself Kim Taehyung, a mortician.
Nurse: We already know you Mr. Kim. My name is Sana and she is Mina.
[They all bow to each other]
Tae: I need your help... actually Dr. Jeon wants me to know background information about hospital and staff.
Mina: *gasp* Dr. Jeon wants that? Then I'll surely help.
Sana: *big smile* me-too~
[After that, Mina and Sana started introducing every staff with the help of photo on staff album. But... as you know... if girls helping you then it will not just a simple talk, gossiping must be included]
Mina: That man is head surgeon Yugyeom. He always eats our director's head for promotion.
JK: Excuse me! Ms. Mina... do me a favor and stop telling him a bunch of unnecessary stuff. *giving her file* take this and operation will start after 1 hour, inform the patient's family.
Mina: Y-Yes sir!
[In between JK and Tae's eyes meet where Tae's heart started thumping in a very different way but one old lady sitting on her wheelchair noticed everything]
