"Yeah, I know him!" Jisoo replied, "But....should I mail over the medicine or...."

Lisa glanced at the man wrapping himself around her. "We should be going back today".

"Alright, I'll go look for Doctor Kim right away!"

After hanging up, Jisoo promptly leapt off her bed and looked into the mirror.

Loose striped pyjams, messy hair, coarse skin over her no-makeup face.

Jisoo was stunned at the sight of her own reflection as if doubting it was herself.

She then blushed furiously when she remembered Jin's cool, almost feminine face.

Immediately, she opened her closet and dumped every piece of her clothing on bed and fumbled around randomly.

Still, she found nothing up to standard despite combing through them for a long time: everything was too teenage girl.

"Aaaaaargh! What should I do!" Jisoo shrieked, stamping her feet and suddenly holding her own fashion tastes in disdain.

She quickly Google-ed1 it: "Do me like women dressed like young girls?"

The first result was: "Yes"

Breathing a sigh of relief, she quickly washed her face and her hair, brushed her teeth, and then used a facial mask before putting on make-up.

Then, she put on a pink strapped dress that reaches the knees.

Her hair was long_it had been some time since she went to the hairdresser, allowing her to curl it inside and match it with sparse fringe for a cute look.

But after prettying up, Jisoo felt sight disdain at her unfamiliar reflection in the mirror.

Why did she do that? Was the cheeky Jin worth her doing that?

Whatever. President Jeon's meds were the most important.

In the hospital.

Jisoo had such a terrible sense of direction that she couldn't recognize any place she had been or north, east, south or west. It took her more than a few glances of the hospital map before she took the elevator upstairs.

When she reached the neurology wing, she tugged at her own sleeves as she blankly, aimlessly searched.

She already couldn't remember where Jin's office was. At all.

So, she quickly ran to a nurse and asked, "Excuse me, Where is Kim Seok Jin's office?"

"Doctor Kim? His office is the one furthest inside" the nurse replied. "He was performing a surgery, but he should be coming back around this time. Please wait for a while"

"Alright, thank you" Jisoo replied courteously.

However, as she turned, her cheeks were puffed and she complained inwardly.

'Surgery again. So busy man'.

Nonetheless, Jin didn't return even after Jisoo had walked around to past the time. Curious, she went to the surgery room.

She wondered then: Why hadn't she been inside a surgery room even through she was already an adult?

****

The hospital surgery room was at the top floor and rather quiet so that the doctors wouldn't be disturbed in the midst of surgery.

As the elevator doors opened, Jisoo could hear a deafening mix of arguing and crying.
