5 pm

I remove my shoes and get inside the house, hoping to see the one i need to, but she isn't here unfortunately. Sighing, i make way to my bedroom, unwantedly stumbling upon eunwoo who seems to be all dressed up, she's probably going to another man, whatever, i don't care about those anymore.

"Honey, i'm going to a friend's birthday party." She informs me, but i walk past her to go into my bedroom, tired and exhausted. Why isn't the masseur here yet?

I approach june's bedroom, and i knock on the door, hoping to see her step out in not more than three seconds. She opens the door, "oh, good evening," she leaves the door and goes to get her jacket, not liking to show skin unnecessarily in front of anyone like me, i smile but step inside. "Is minji not here yet, darling?" I push my veiny hands into the pockets of my tight office pants, my body aching since i sat for long in a still position. "No, mister jeon."

She tells, going to her closet to lock it. "Didn't she give a call or anything?" I feel helplessly upset, asking, i lick my lips and scratch my forehead tiredly. "She texted me. There already was reservations booked for her previously and those people didn't check it properly and sent her for you, but the old client asked for her and she decided to skip your appointment because she knows that one well."

The frustration building up within me, i try not to get furious at those stupid jerks, and i maintain my mind by clenching my jaw, holding my hands into a fist. "Well," i smile a little, seeing this adorable girl feeling sympathy for me, "that's okay. I'll get the next schedule." I scratch the tip of my nose, gazing at her face with some softness. She says nothing, pitiful for me, and she keeps her hands behind her back in a polite way. "Have you put hanuel to bed, sweetheart?" I go back to the door and open it, hearing a hum echo out her, "i did, she just went some minutes back."

This relieves me, i smile at her and leave her room. I guess, I'll just have to take a hot shower now and go have something to eat.

8 pm

"And did he have his medicines?" I tap the ashes down from the cigarette I've smoked only halfway through, squinting my eyes as it stings because of all this smoke and toxic air surrounding my face. "He had all of them, mister jeon, but it didn't seem to work."

She speaks this in a low pitched voice which is similar to a whisper, i scoff bitterly. "You know you're married, right? Is this right what you're doing?"

I sit down slowly, trying not to be so restless, my mind malfunctioning because of the overwork I've done, yet i cannot sleep because of my restlessness. The patient's mother quickly makes statements to justify herself, unknowing of what I know and why she's always back for her son in around a week just to see me. "Anyways," i sigh, "just tell him to keep taking his medicines and his nose shall recover soon." I hurry to finish the rest of the blunt, the sight of june coming in front of my eyes. I cut the call, resting back and enjoying the gentle breeze while i watch the tree branches gently swing.

The young girl stops by the backyard where i am, and i smile, extending my arm to call her here. Her soft seeming lips curve up which catches my eye from this distance, and i slouch back to be comfortable in my seat, resting my hand on my thigh while I hold the cigarette with the other.

"What's wrong?" She asks in her gentle voice, her brunette long hair flowing along the wind gently, she looks really beautiful without much effort.
