....help

...someone, please...

HELP!!

*Gasp*

....

"7:49" read the clock.

I gently touched my neck, breathing heavily. My throat dry and my body left with no energy the first thing in the morning.

That dream again.

I poured myself a glass of water from the side table and drank it up all at once like a shot of soju.

I tried getting up on my own which was of no use. I was trembling and my body would give up any moment.

"Y/n, time to wake up!" A shrill voice followed by heavy footsteps came, and the door swung open in seconds.

"Oh, you're already awake." The woman looked at me and smiled kindly.

"Good morning mom," I said rubbing my right eye.

"You look exhausted. That dream again?" She asked with concern sitting down on the bed beside me.

"Mm"

"Should I call them up and tell them you won't make it today?" She asked, patting my forehead with her handkerchief to get rid of the cold sweat.

"No. I must go today. It's a big day after all." I assured.

"If you want we can always postpone the selection."

"No. I told you, I wanna make it on my own."

She let out a proud smile and patted my right shoulder. "That's my brave daughter. It's just a dream, you'll be fine."

I nodded and she left the room after she made sure I was going to college today. I picked myself out of bed and got ready for the day.

°°°

"I'll see you later today. Good luck with the selection but don't stress out if you don't make it okay?" She said with a sweet smile on her face as she stopped the car in front of my college.

"You have everything right?" She made sure that I had all the documents and stuff that were needed and finally drove off to work.

Today is a big day. Today marks the day when I finally start training for what I've always wanted to do.

Helping people.

I want to become a psychologist. I want to work in my mom's hospital who's also a psychologist. And today we get our internship for the same.

"Ms Y/n?" A lady read out my name and looked up at the hall full of students, searching for me.

"Yes!" I responded and stood up quickly. I walked towards the door nervously and peeked inside. There were three men and a woman, all dressed in neat, professional clothing.

One of them noticed me and gave me a nod, gesturing me to go inside. So I did. I sat down on the empty chair in front of them after handing them the file. It was pretty intimidating at first but they soon happened to recognise me.

"You're Dr Jung's daughter, right?" One of the men asked.

"Yes sir," I replied confidently.

"I see, your mother is very competent and not to mention, good at her job. I hope you follow her footsteps and become a great doctor like her." The woman spoke this time and all I could do was to smile at her.

"Looking at your grades and such, I'm impressed to see you want to get the internship on your own. If anyone else was ito be in your shoes, they would probably use their connections." The bald man complimented.

"I guess that's one reason I deserve to get internship in your hospital." I said nervously.

"Very well then, I guess we have our decision now?" The woman raised the question for the other three men.

"Is that even a question? Congrats Ms Jung. We are happy to have you as the intern in our hospital." The bald man stood up and put forward his hand for me to shake it.

"Thank you sir!" I shook his hand and bowed a full 90 degree to show my gratitude to all of them. Once out of the room, I immediately dialed up my mom's number.

"Guess what!" I exclaimed as soon as the ringing stopped and I knew the call has been received.

"Congrats Y/n, I'm so proud of you!" Mom squealed on the other end before I could give her the news.

"How'd you know?" I asked, confused.

"Well, you wouldn't be this happy if you hadn't made it." She revealed. "I'll see you later today honey, a patient is waiting for me okay? Remember, I'm so proud of you! Let's celebrate at home." She congratulated me one more time and then hung up.

'I can't believe this. I finally made it my dream hospital!' I thought.

Later that day, when everyone was done being interviewed, we were told that we could go home for the day and get ready for the next as we immediately start our practice.

This had me pumped but at the same time, nervous. I was finally going to do what I had always wanted to do. But was I prepared? That was the main question.

Stay tuned for the next chapter!
