❝But what can I do when it's you I have the sweet tooth for?❞

As much as Kim Namjoon was smitten with Shin Youngmi, the latter was equally oblivious of the fact. Basically, his ceaseless patience was to blame, which also end...

An unremitting maze of blinding white walls stood before Nora and Namjoon as imperiously as ever, despite them having scanned every ward that they had passed by in the last few minutes. They had ensured not to leave any stone unturned, repeatedly combing through the countless faces that they had already spotted once in the meantime, in case their inspection was not thorough enough. Yet when it came to their efforts bearing proportional outcomes subsequently, all they could see was failure painting the town red right in front of their eyes.
Namjoon was downright frustrated with how such setbacks carried on to strike them inconsiderately when they already had so much on their plate. Raking his hand through his hair rather too harshly, he grunted under his breath. Confounding Nora because of his long-overdue burnout was never his plan, but that was how it had turned out to be nevertheless.
"We're almost there. She must be somewhere around at this point, it's just that we haven't caught her yet. But we will soon, before you'd even realize. Believe me when I say I've never trusted my hunch this much. So just hang in there a little longer, please?" Nora's consolation would have immediately worked wonders had another nagging thought not begun to plague Namjoon's mind so soon.
"Where's senior, though? I haven't really seen her since we arrived at this hospital."
"She's off to the restroom—" Nora had to cut herself off when Namjoon started to retrace his steps. "No Doc, what are you doing? Let her be for some time. Try to understand that she must be startled due to all of this too. I'll check on her in a minute or two. Don't make it any more difficult for her, please."
Nora exhaled in relief when Namjoon finally jettisoned his idea of following Youngmi to the edge of the world— if that was where she might have fled to— as he slowly rotated on his heels and ended up facing her. Once their eyes locked on each other's, it felt like a vacuum had been engendered out of nowhere, for Nora could experience herself being levitated towards the male. However, on the contrary, Namjoon's eyes portrayed nothing akin to that dawning epiphany. His head was bestrewn with only one concern, the one which Nora was aware that she would never be able to block out from there no matter what.
Before Nora could grasp, a reluctant tear pricked her in the corner of her eye, causing her to shake her head ardently so as to dismiss it without getting it noticed by Namjoon. Quite unexpectedly though, his brows did furrow at her abrupt gesture, but momentarily, since a crash cart behind them had literally crashed into a wall and thus been toppled over to an irredeemable extent. Both of them had promptly jerked their necks in its direction, rushing over without any second thought to assist the nurse in assembling it once again.
Although when Nora crouched down to lend a hand, she could not refrain from peeping into the private room that remained so defenselessly open to her probing now. Veering her line of sight towards every visible corner of that room in a fraction of seconds, her eyes widened dramatically upon registering an acquainted figure. Paying no heed to the task at hand anymore, she instantly lurched in that person's direction only to discover that her intuition was accurate. Though like a cherry on top, she ultimately got to familiarize herself with the one whom they had been originally seeking as well, as she proceeded to sit beside Youngmi.
