Law Of Love

12) Blast from the Past

Jin was done with his appointments for the day and was on his way out when he heard someone calling out for him and he turned around and waited for the person to catch up to him.

"Sunbae, are you done for today?" Choi Sumin, his junior from medical college and a Gynecology and Infertility specialist in their hospital asked as soon as she caught up to him, panting a little from running through the hospital corridor.

"First, catch your breath, Dr. Sumin. Here, drink this water. You are an Attending Doctor in this hospital and you have residents and interns working under you and yet you still behave like a five year old kid. Don't you know you are not supposed to shout and run around in a hospital? I don't know when you are going to grow up and get serious." Jin scolded her like an angry parent, making her pout and glare at him.

"What? Why are you glaring at me for stating facts? As a senior doctor you should always maintain a decorum of professionalism. How else would you make your interns respect you and listen to you?" Jin asked, doubling down on his junior who was looking at him with a done face.

"Are you done with your lecture or do you want to scold me some more? Because I didn't come here to listen to your scoldings. And I would rather my interns treat me like a friend and a mentor then be afraid of me. Like your interns are of you. I am the only one in this entire hospital who isn't afraid of you. So you should be thanking me and be grateful to me for being friend's with a grouchy ass like you." Sumin retorted, making Jin raise his eyebrow.

"You do realize that you are talking to your senior, don't you? And I can very well get you fired for this disrespect?"

"Then you will be left all alone with no one to talk to and bored out of your mind."

"You say as if it is a bad thing. So far, I am only hearing the positives." Jin bit his lips hard to stop himself from laughing out loud. But he lost it and started laughing hard when he saw the look of disbelief and betrayal on Sumin's face, who looked like he had murdered her puppy.

"Sunbae, you are so cruel. How can you threaten to fire me and then laugh at my face? Do you think this is funny?" Sumin whined, causing Jin to laugh harder.

"Well, it sure is damn funny from where I am standing. You should've seen your face." Jin spoke, wiping his tears.

"Sunbaeeeeee." Sumin stomped her feet on the ground and started whining like a child, causing Jin to lift his hands up in surrender.

"Alright alright. I am sorry. I won't tease you anymore. Now tell me why you were shouting my name all around the hospital?"

"Well a few of us were planning to go out and grab some drinks and I was here to invite you to join us. But now I don't want to." Sumin grumbled, still annoyed.

"Thanks for the invite, Sumin. But I will have to take a rain check. My younger brother is back home and I was planning on spending some time with him and catching up with him."

"Taehyung is back? When? And why didn't you tell me?"

"And why should I tell you? He is my brother, not yours."

"You... Ugh, forget it. It's a waste of time talking to you. I am leaving. Good bye." Sumin snapped and turned around to leave but stopped in her tracks, hearing Jin call out to her.

"Sumin, wait."

"What now?" Sumin asked, annoyed.

"Uhm, did you get a chance to look at the file that I gave you? What do you think? Is there a chance?" Sumin's face immediately morphed into a professional one as she looked at the worried male in front of her.
