As Yoojung waited in the doctor's office for her test results, unease settled in her stomach. Despite the spell masking her pain, she knew her heart cancer was worsening.
When the doctor entered, concern etched on his face, he said, "We were surprised by your results."
Yoojung forced a smile, trying to sound casual. "Surprised? How so?"
"Given your condition, we expected more noticeable symptoms," he explained, noting her outward appearance.
"I'm managing," she replied, though panic bubbled beneath her calm facade. She couldn't reveal the truth about the spell Ni-ki had cast.

On a rooftop, Ni-ki enjoyed the city view when Jake surprised him.
"Hyung? What are you doing here?" Ni-ki asked, startled.
"Just checking in," Jake replied, surveying the city.

"I know," Jake said, his expression serious. "We all miss you."
"Miss you too," Ni-ki teased.
"Are you going to see Jungwon?" Jake asked.
"Not yet," Ni-ki admitted. "He's... fine." He didn't want to worry Jake.
"Good to hear," Jake replied. "I'll see you about thirty years earlier."
"Funny," Ni-ki laughed as Jake saluted and vanished.
