Unlike his worries, Yeojung had contacted Wooyoung, telling him that she could attend the showcase, even though it means rushing directly from the hospital to the venue so she wouldn't be late.

"Great! I'll pick you up!" Wooyoung's usual cheery voice got more cheerful by a tenfold, after getting the news. Ever since he proposed the idea, Yeojung had her schedule packed with more surgeries and seeing outpatients with the almighty Professor Kim, the proposal completely out of her head because of it.

"Just hope that nothing goes wrong with the surgery, then I'll try my best to get out before six." Yeojung giggles to the phone, "Oh, I have to go now, bye!"

Yeojung had just finished leading a TSA surgery, it starting late last night and finished this morning, meaning that she had no time to eat dinner, nor breakfast.

"I brought toast!" Donghyuck bursts into the NS department, holding up the food he bought. "Whoa Jung, honestly, by this time you should've been a professor already." Kyeolmi enters next, behind Donghyuck.

She saw the fatigued and sleep deprived state her friend is in and shakes her head. "I know right, but Professor Kim thinks I still have a," Yeojung extends her arms to the side, "long, way to go." She then rests her head on the table.

"Where's Jena?" Yeojung got dragged from her slump state, and was handed a portion of toast by Donghyuck, "She had an urgent surgery, her patient's stats suddenly dropped, something to do with the lungs." Donghyuck sat across her, shrugging.

The three ate in silence, each of them having the same levels of fatigue, maybe not as much as Yeojung's but still, Kyeolmi had to deal with a liver transplantation surgery in which the patient is a sickly old man, resulting in a hefty amount of bleeding.

Donghyuck on the other hand, had been dealing with construction workers from a nearby construction project, they would usually come in with a small fracture, but just yesterday, a man with an amputated leg came in, a work accident.

They just hoped that no other emergency trauma patient would come in, otherwise they would have to say goodbye with their toast.

The two Hans had made up already, they had a late night deep talk, clearing the problem and mistakes they made towards each other. Yeojung promised to go confront the school about it, claiming that Yeolli was framed, and she had promised to be a better sister and motherly, also fatherly figure in Yeolli's life.

"So, how important is this upcoming surgery?" This time, it was Yeojung who's busy studying on the dining table while Yeolli was watching a show on her phone, "Very. Kim Doyoung is going to be my first assistant, and I need to prove myself worthy being a professor."

Yeolli had no idea why her sister's fate is in the hands of the man she's never heard before but if it's important to Yeojung, then it's also as important to Yeolli.

Yeojung circles stuff on the textbook she got from Professor Kim relating to the operation in schedule, before jotting it down in her own notebook. "So, what's the overall plan to it?" Yeolli scooted closer to her big sister. "Cut the head open, remove some tumors, try to not get any bleeding to happen, close him up, and we're finished." Yeojung said, rubbing her tired eyes.

"You just made a thirteen hours long surgery sound short." A voice disturbs the two sisters, who instantly whips their heads towards the door. "I brought dinner." Yeosang held a plastic filled with food in his hands up, "And I brought desserts." Another voice follows behind him.

Yeojung gasped, seeing the man behind her cousin grinning like an idiot. "Wooyoung? What are you doing here?" Yeojung stood up to greet them, "Tell me, He wants to follow me here out of nowhere." Yeosang took of his shoes, "He could've stayed at home." The lad rolled his eyes.

"Wait, He's the 'annoying, loud, and obnoxious' roommate you told me about?!" Yeojung points at Wooyoung, "I'm obnoxious?! When?" Wooyoung protested, crossing his arms. Yeosang stayed quiet and made his way into the apartment, ignoring the two and greets his younger cousin instead.

Realizing that Wooyoung is still on the doorstep, Yeojung gasped and made way for him, letting the man inside. "Wow, that's a lot of brain there." Wooyoung put the mini tarts on the dining table, eyeing the material Yeojung had been studying for.

"Not as much as the ones I see in a daily basis." She shrugs nonchalantly. "Erm, who are you?" Another voice pops in, Wooyoung turns around to face the voice, who then gasped in realization, "You're that Ahjussi who saved me!" Yeolli points at Wooyoung, her other hand covering her mouth. "Oh My God, thank you so much, sir." Yeolli made a deep bow towards him, which he brushed off lightly.

"Nah, don't think about it," He chuckles, "My name is Wooyoung, by the way, and I am not that old." Wooyoung crosses his arms, "Same age as your sister and Yeosang." He points towards the other male being that's been busy grabbing plates for everyone.

"Wait, are you dating my sister?" Yeolli asked, the girl is much shorter than him so she needs to look up to make eye contact. "W-What? Who? M-Me? Your sister? I—" Wooyoung stammers, "Yeolli stop talking nonsense and go help Yeosang." Before the situation could get any worse, Yeojung intervenes and cuts their conversation off.

Yeolli squints her eyes at them suspiciously before walking away towards Yeosang. "Your sister's cute," Wooyoung said, rubbing his nape, "but scary." Yeojung laughs, "One thing's for sure, Yeolli won't like a man sixteen years older than her."

Yeojung came closer to Wooyoung's ears, "It counts as a pedophile act, won't it?" She whispers to his ears, pulling away while giggling. "W-What?! No! I don't like her!" Wooyoung rubs his red ears from embarrassment, "I mean, I like her but not romantically! It's just tha—" Wooyoung got cut off by Yeojung's laugh, "Whatever you say, champ." She walks towards the dining table, cleaning her files up, leaving Wooyoung in the living room.

"But my eyes are only looking at you, though?"
