Six months later , life as Mia knew went by normally , as if nothing ever happened . Only left with good and bad memories .
She soon started her intern year as An Army Medic . She transferred outside the town , traveling around with her fellow work mates .
The only thing she kept beside to remember him by was her Notebook .
Mia as in your name :
" everyone this is not a drill , they have dropped more injuries tonight " you hear one of the interns team yell as they make themselves clear to eye-shot inside the tent , walking up to the the equipment table messing around the tools .
" god slow down " Alma , the final year medic reaches for his wrist stopping him .
He nods bitterly as he takes a sharp breath. " if we don't.... go now , they are going to stop the program " he says and everyone stands silent for a bit while . Just as the clock ticks the whole team starts panicking .
" Mia , get the First Aid box " Alma rushes from beside you grabbing many different surgical tools before heading outside , you following her steps .
Slowly you reach another tent where many soldiers lays , half dead while the other half cry in pain .
You both fast walk toward the newest patient , making him lay down and wire him to multiple advanced devices .
" what do this thing do , why is it making that sound ?" You ask , admiring the beeping sound coming from the machine as you wire them into the patient who hiss in pain everytime you stick it into his skin .
" that's called a cardio heart monitor , it's some new technology device that allows for the continuous monitoring of the heart's activity through electrocardiography also known in medical terms as ECG " she pulls another similar device and connect it , pulling a tube out and putting it inside his mouth .
Slowly the machine starts making weird sounds . You stare at her in hope for answers and she seems to understand.
" this is called a Suction machines , they are appliances that are used to remove substances such as blood, saliva, mucus, and vomit from a person's airway . Simply preventing pulmonary aspiration and facilitate breathing " she explains while examining his breathing that seems relaxing after every pump .
The curtains suddenly get pushed back , revealing doctor Ramsey .
" Dr.Williams , did you examine his blood pressure ?" He looks at you with narrow eyebrows.
You clutch the board in your hands , nodding . " I'm about to sir "
He notices the beeping of the heart monitor , making him sigh in relief .
" okay . Great job you two " he claps your shoulders together and leaves .
You look at Alma and smile .
Searching through the first aid box , you find the right length and sized cuff bladder . You carefully wrap the cuff around the patient upper arm with the lower edge one inch above the antecubital fossa . Lightly pressing the stethoscope's bell over the brachial artery just below the cuff's edge , rapidly inflating the cuff to 180 mmHg then releasing air from it at a moderate of 3mm/sec rate .
" it's okay to feel nervous and scared on your first day " Alma reassures you with an arm on your shoulder .
You write down the rate and slowly hanging it on the patient bed .
" the problem is , I've been nervous AND scared for 3 months now " you walk out , being followed by Alma two steps behind .
" i just .... " you turn to her . " i just can't think straight " you throw your hands in the air while puffing your cheeks .
You look around you for a moment your thoughts are clouded , you can't think straight . Then it flickers to the memories with Taehyung , the very happy ones . Your eyes reach a blood spot and your thoughts cloud to a bad memory .
" Miandra ? Are you okay ? " you hear Alma calling your name . She touches your shoulders lightly catching you away from your thoughts and you nod snapping out . " maybe it would be good if you rested the rest of the night out , i can take it from here by myself "
You look around one last time before nodding . " thank you " murmuring your goodbye , you leave to one of the other tents .
Finally relaxing on top your banker , you reach beneath your pillow case for a photograph.

You stare at it for a while longer , smiling as you trace down his face .
" hi i missed you . I hope you're okay " you mumble as you clench your grip around it .
Soon your hear voices getting closer to the tent . shove the photo back while pretending to sleep , the two interns you share the bankers with enter as they are still engulfed in conversations.
Noticing you sleeping , they quiet down . Each one of them taking their place and sleeping , it didn't become hard for you to drift to sleep after either .
