Joong Ki's POV
I got home and went for a shower. After that, I went to my room and lied down. Will mum like her? Will dad like her? Will my family accept her? I sighed and turned to my side. I looked at the clock. 2:15am. I wonder what she could be doing now. Surgery again? Or is she rushing to finish up her reports? Or... Checking on patients? Or sleeping? I took my phone and went into my chat with her.
"Are you awake?" I typed and hit the send button.
"Maybe she'll see it only tomorrow morning," I told myself.
My phone beeped.
"Yes," Was her reply.
I dialled her number and waited for her to pick up the call.
"Ne, Joong Ki-sshi," She answered.
"Are you still working?" I asked.
"Ani, I'm in my room, lying on the bed," She said.
"You went home?" I asked.
"Ani, the hospital one. The dormitory," She answered.
"You sound tired. You should sleep," I said.
"Gwaenchana... It's not every night I get to talk to someone on the phone..." She said, her voice getting softer.
"Geudae... It must be tiring for you," I said.
There was no reply.
"Yeobosaeyo?" I spoke.
Still no reply.
I chuckled to myself. She must have fell asleep.
"Goodnight, and sweet dreams, Hye Kyo-sshi," I said before hanging up.
I put the phone away and stared at the ceiling. I sighed. This sounds crazy, but I miss her. I thought about our first meeting. And not long later, I fell asleep.
Hye Kyo's POV
The sun rays shone in and hurt my eyes. I opened them and closed it again.
"Wake up, you got to check on your patients today," My roommate, Senior Doctor Minah, sat by my bed.
I opened my eyes again.
"And how many times do I have to tell you, it's dangerous to sleep with your phone!" She nagged.
"I didn't..." I yawned and slowly sat up.
"Didn't?" She picked up my phone from my side.
I cocked my head and tried to recall how it got to my side.
"Ah..." I said.
"Ne?" She asked.
"I was on the phone last night and fell asleep," I said.
"Halfway through the call?" She asked.
"Omo!" I covered my mouth.
"Apologize later. Go wash up. You're going to be late soon," She said.
I hurriedly got up of my bed and went into the bathroom to wash my face and take a quick shower. After that, I put on my clothings and texted Joong Ki.
"Ani... It's better to call him," I told myself.
I dialed his number and left the dormitory, walking towards the emergency wards, waiting for him to pick up the call.
"Yeobosaeyo...?" He picked up the call, his voice sounding as if he was still asleep.
"It's me, Hye Kyo," I said.
