Chapter 2

Yejin sat in front of the operation room with uneasy postures for hours. She bit her nails nervously wishing that her mother would survive for her. The most agitated moment of her life, waiting for more than 6 hours that also drained out her energy.

The clock showed 05.00 AM already, but the doctor seemed not to be going out soon. The thought of her mother was lying on operating bed arouse her worry, she kept on praying for her mother knowing who was on critical ages for getting surgery. She was holding her neklace with a star pendant, praying for her mother's healthiness outside that also relieve her nerve.

Yejin still didn't get a rest since she got home from work yesterday night. The operation schedule that was made in a short time, forcing her to follow the schedule eventhough she was deadly tired. She was running out of energy, but she couldn't closed her eyes just for a minute, her mind went somewhere and worried about what had happened to her mother inside, which took hours without knowing the progression.

The one Yejin really hope was she wanted to spend her time with her mother more. She wiped her tears feeling emotionally, because her mind brought back her past memories with her mother. Thinking about her mother which turned to be single-mother in a young age, who raised Yejin by herself, after her father passed away since Yejin was still a kid. The journey was really though but, they passed it together. They spent their time together in a small restaurant which sell yangnyeom chicken in traditional market, that they owned since Yejin's father was alive. Sometimes, her mother was lacking on money and should take a loan to make Yejin's school fee kept on paid. Sometimes, they didn't have a money for a meal. Sometimes, they were protecting each other from the bad words from people around them. Every time she was thinking about her mother's struggle to raise her well, made her tears flowing like a river.

"Ms. Son.." a familiar voice approached her. Nurse Yang and the male doctor, who stood up beside her after coming out from operation room. Yejin naturally stood up and looked at them in worry.

"How about the operation doctor?"she said wiping the tears she got earlier leaving a red nose and puffy eyes on her face.

"For today, the operation is success, but we should observe the condition because the cancer metastases to another organ, so we should keep on eye on her for some time. We will do our best to keep on her." The doctor explained the condition carefully.

"Thank you, doctor. " Yejin bowed respectfully to him.

Yejin stood up in front of the receptionist counter at 09.00 AM after looking at her mother condition through the glass again.

The mother was laid on one of Intensive Care Unit's bed, that she couldn't approach her. Especially after the surgery was done. She should wait until she was moved to general ward.

She didn't have a time for a rest, her job make her to go as soon as her mother was moved from operation room. It was a relief, she could breathe after the surgery and make sure that her mother's surgery was succesfull indeed. She directly went for restroom to get ready for work.

Her unusual eyes told everyone beside her that she should get some rest, especially Yoona who was standing beside her for the whole day. Her puffy eyes and black panda eyes indicated her that she must took a long good sleep. Yoona just kept in a silence knowing that she was coming straight after her mother's surgery and chose to get some kimbab and orange juice for Yejin's breakfast along her way to the company.

The CEO's car was parked in front of the main door just in time, which automatically called for workers to get theirselves ready to greet the one who led the company especially for Yoona and Yejin who worked as the front officer.
