You Said Remember Me

Looking for the doctor was harder than he'd imagined. He'd gone practically to every department all over the hospital and still couldn't locate the doctor who'd seen Victoria because in the first place he didn't even know where she'd gone to get a checkup. He stopped in the middle of the hallway and walked back to the large window screen he'd seen. Glancing inside he could see rows and rows of babies sleeping in their own cubicles. It was a fragile sight for him but amazed him as well. Then the small woman's words trailed into his memory again and he wondered-had Victoria Song been pregnant? He stepped away from the glass window almost knocking into a nurse.

"I'm so sorry," he apologized.

The nurse nodded and he could feel her eyes stick onto his face then smiled. His charm was playing by itself again.

"Say, can I ask you a question?" he asked.

"Uh...y...yes." the nurse stuttered nervously.

Donghae smiled and could make out the nurse blushing, "Do you remember a woman by the name Victoria Song? Maybe she was here a few days ago."

"Victoria...Song?" the nurse repeated. "I don't know, there are too many patients for me to remember."

"Is that so?" Donghae said then glanced around. "I guess I should have tried the front counter."

"Wait!" the nurse called when Donghae had began walking away. "Maybe I can help you."

"Really?" Donghae hurried back.

"Yes."

Donghae reached into his pocket and pulled out his name card and gave it to her, "Can you check with all the doctors and tell them to give me a call if they've seen Victoria Song?"

"Yes."

"Thanks a lot!" Donghae waved with a jump and hurried down the hallway. Since he'd finished the first thing on his list he didn't recall anything else that he had wanted to do. Maybe he'd go back home and relax now. However, the ringing of his phone interrupted all plans he had just come up with.

"Oppa, I'm going to be moving into my dorm in Seoul today. Do you want to come with me?" it was Hee Sun.

"Uh...I don't know." was Donghae's reply.

"I really need someone to go with me. I'm just a girl and I can't carry all my luggage myself," she went.

Donghae let her words fly pass and just remained silent for a while to make it seem as if he was really think of something, which he wasn't. "What about your parents?"

"When I told them you'd go with me they were fine with it."

Donghae made a face and bit his tongue lightly, "Why would you do that?"

"Because I know you'd go with me," she said confidently.

"What about Hyukie?" asked Donghae.

She seemed reluctant to answer but finally said, "He's here."

"Um...I'll come with you if Eunhyuk comes too."

"Ok!"

After he hung up Donghae couldn't help but heave a sigh. There's was no way he could reject if she'd already told her parents what she did. Oh well, it was just Seoul. It wouldn't take all day, he was sure of it.

Victoria tossed a suitcase and a bag into the back of her car and climbed into the front seat beside her toy poodle. She'd changed her mind just that morning after the investigator's sudden visit. She would bring some of her belongings to her new apartment, a house split in half and she would own the right side of that house. Then after the funeral on Saturday she'd bring the rest of her belongings to the new house and officially move in. She still hadn't made up her mind about whether she'd want to stay in Seoul over night, but she guessed she'd make a decision after she'd set her luggage in the new apartment.
