I wake up to the sound of the alarm. I hope I could get more sleep. I peek at my phone, only to see a message from Soohin. 

"We need to discuss something. Meet me before noon." 

Why does she sound angry? I think I know reason. I took a deep breath and headed toward office  after completing my morning routine. All I want is for her to not scold me too much.

After entering inside the building I start searching for her. But as I see her, she starts walking away. It is not something new for me; she loves to ignore me when we are in the workplace. But somethings feels off.

At lunchtime, I head to our usual spot. A ordinary café with less people around.
Surprisingly, she does not show up. I called her, text her still no response. So I went out there. 

What happened? Is she still mad at me for last night, or she is doing it purposely. I suddenly spot Soohin embracing a man on the other side of the road.

Is it her? Why is she with another person? Is she cheating on me? With many thoughts, I start going towards them without realizing that a bike is about to hit me.

My head is utterly blank right now, and I am sitting on the ground with my bleeding arm. 
Soon people around me start gathering while I'm unable to move. It takes me a few seconds to realize that I had an accident. I look again, in the location where I thought I saw them, but nobody was there.

The biker quickly approaches me as I slowly stand up.  

"Sir, I apologize deeply; I never intended to cause such a mess."

"It is okay, bandages can heal this; it is not a severe cut."

I say as I push his hands off my shoulder. 

"I am extremely sorry, and let me take you to the hospital."

"I am fine. You don't have to."

"Sir, please," he asks again. 

"Fine," I agree with him since I do not have energy to argue with him.

At least I'm didn't die. I was so near to death and did not even realize it.

Even after arriving at the hospital he keeps apologizing. It's irritating. Why do people constantly apologize after committing crimes although having your eyes open might help prevent accidents?

While a nurse pulls me into a room, he pays the bill. Finally he is gone. I have never encountered someone as annoying as him. 

The nurse also left saying "The doctor is coming". Such a waste of time this wound can be healed only with some bandages yet he took me here.

"I apologize for making you wait."

Somewhere before, I heard this voice. I quickly turn around to meet someone I should not have, Soohin's brother. What type of coincidence it is? I question myself but he seems normal. I never expected him to be a doctor. Especially after seeing him yesterday! 

"Can you move closer?" - he says with his deep voice

I obey him and remain silent till he says anything first. 

"We met yesterday, if I remember correctly?"

I gulp.

"Yes. Your sister was drinking together with several colleagues. She was drunk so I had to  drop her off."

"Sister?"

"Isn’t Soohin your sister?"

"So, that's what she said huh?"

His voice is calm. I expect him to be rude but he seems nice.

"Yes, I'm her older brother."

"Nice to meet you," I remark as I hear him giggle. 

"Same" - he says without breaking the eye contact. I look away and he keeps cleaning the wounded area.

"How did this happen?"

"Huh?"

"I mean, how did you become injured?"

How I'm suppose to say that I saw your sister with someone else and I lost my mind?

"I wasn't paying attention while walking"

"Is that so?"

I can feel his warm breath against my skin. I look at him, but he is already staring at me.

"It's done"

He says while backing away a little.

"Thank you," I respond, standing up.

"Here is the prescription take the medicines from pharmacy before leaving" - he adds.

"Sure," I reply and I'm about to go when he replies

"It is a pleasure to meet you. I hope we will see each other often." - he smirks.

Weird but hell no, I pray we never meet again.

With a nod and smile, I exit the room.

I hope he does not realize that I am his sister's boyfriend.  

I glance at the prescription, and for the first time, I learn that his name is Jeon Jungkook.
