Song: The two of us- Kim Jong Kook

-Kang Gary-
Ji Hyo just got discharged from the hospital and was acting weird because of the pain medication the doctors had given her.

"Gary Oppa, when can I get a drivers license?" Ji Hyo asked as I put her in the passenger seat of my car. "All of my other friends have theirs. Can I drive your car?"

I sat in the drivers seat and closed the door. "Not in this state."

"Why?" Ji Hyo pouted. "I'm perfectly capable of driving a car right now."

"No, you're not." I put my key into the ignition and started driving.

"Fine." Ji Hyo crossed her arms and looked outside the window. "I never wanted to drive your car anyway."

"Whenever your feeling better I'll let you drive." I promised. "But right now you're sick and you need to rest."

"But I already took a nap!" Ji Hyo whined. "I feel perfectly fine!"

I sighed. "Okay, but later."

We got to Ji Hyo's house and I held her hand as we walked to her door.

"Is this your house Gary?" Ji Hyo asked in awe. "It's so pretty."

I rang the doorbell and smiled. "No this is your house."

The door opened and Ji Hyo's mom was there.

"Omo, what's wrong with my daughter?" Ji Hyo's mom took Ji Hyo's hand and made her sit down on her couch.

"Pain Medication." I answered.

We both looked at Ji Hyo who was slowly starting to fall asleep.

"Honey, do you want me to take you to your bed?" Ji Hyo's mom asked.

"No, I'm not tired. I'm just going to rest my eyes." Ji Hyo closed her eyes and after a few moments she fell asleep.

"Thank you for taking care of her while I couldn't." Ji Hyo's mom smiled. "I'm sorry I doubted you at first Gary."

"It's okay. Do you want me to stay here a little longer?" I asked.

"No, that's fine. Kim Jong Kook is coming over later to take care of her. You should take a break." Ji Hyo's mom patted my shoulder and went into the kitchen.

I glanced at Ji Hyo then followed her mom. "Jong Kook is coming?"

"Yes. Why?" Ji Hyo's mom asked.

"N-nothing. I think I should stay because well.. I forgot to give something to Jong kook. And this will probably be the only time I can because he really wants it." I smiled awkwardly.

Ji Hyo's mom looked at me suspiciously than nodded. "Okay, okay. You can stay until Jong Kook comes."

"Thank you." I walked towards Ji Hyo again and sat down beside her with a sigh.

The doorbell rang. I stood up and opened it.

"Oh Jong Kook. It's okay you can leave since I'm already here and taking care of her. You know, so..." I gestured Jong Kook to go back to his car.

Jong Kook rolled his eyes and pushed past me. "Hello, I have arrived."

I glared at him and closed the door. Ji Hyo's mom walked out of the garden and smiled when she saw Jong Kook.

"Ah, it's a good thing you came." She said. "At the right time too."

"How is Ji Hyo?" Jong Kook asked.
