-2 Years later-
They say time heals all wounds, but is that really true? Can the passing of time really be enough to heal pain?
"Minari." A light tap pulls the doctor out of her thoughts, "Yes?" Mina smiles at the taller girl in front of her.
"Go home." Jeongyeon shakes her head, grabbing the ipad from Mina's hand, "I can handle this...just..take it easy today."
"I'm fine Jeong." Mina reaches for the ipad, but Jeongyeon pulls her arm back, "You're not. Just go."
"Jeongyeon." Mina's voice was stern, "I'm still your superior within the walls of this hospital."
"I know, which is why I'm pushing you to go. You're distracted Mina and being distracted in our line of work can be fatal." Jeongyeon looks at Mina, "Right." Mina sighs, running a hand through her hair, "Thanks Jeong." The girl walks away and Jeongyeon watches as Mina disappears down the hall, knowing where the girl will be spending the day.

"Mitang hurry or we'll miss it."
"Calm down Satang, we won't miss it." Mina chuckles, pulling Sana's hand to stop the girl from running off without her, "Sunset's still 10 minutes away."
"I know, but I'm just excited." Sana smiles. It'll be the first time we catch the sunset together, she thinks to herself as Mina finds the perfect spot at Astoria Park.
"I think this is nice...we get a view of Hellgate bridge and I think that's the Triborough bridge. What do you think?" Mina asks.
"I think anywhere would be nice." Sana replies softly, "Let's come here every chance we get okay?"
"Sure."
"It's been 2 years already..." Mina looks at the sky, "but I still miss you the same.."
Mina knew it would be hard to let Sana go, especially with each passing moment she spent with the girl. Even if she had already planned on letting the girl go, she didn't think it would be as agonising as it actually is.
"Hikari-chan..you were right..about her...."
It's been a year since Mina's surgical residency at Massachusetts General Hospital began and even though she's thrown herself into her work, she still can't move on.
"How do I let go?" Mina muses in Japanese, while her eyes gaze out at the horizon from the hospital's rooftop garden.
"It depends." A voice answers from behind her, "I'm Kimura Hikari." The girl bows politely.
"I'm.."
"Myoui Mina-san." Hikari chuckles, stepping forward to stand next to Mina, "Nice to meet you."
"You too." Mina looks at the girl, Hikari.
"So do you want to share?" Hikari asks, a soft smile on her face.
"Share?"
"What or who is it that you want to let go of?"
"Isn't that something a little too personal for one of my patients?"
"I'm not though..so just trust.."
"Any patient of this hospital is a patient of the doctors of this hospital; therefore you are my patient."
"Insurance companies would argue otherwise." Hikari chuckles, "But I like your save all attitude."
"It's impossible to save everyone, but it's possible to try."
