"You prepared for it well, huh?" Trish said open-mouthed, totally in awe as she watched Lisa.
"She has practiced for weeks before the exam since she sucked at it so much at first," whispered May as they watched how Lisa was doing pull-ups gracefully and without too much effort.
Their first week was focused on physical training, road marches, confidence building, and formation marching.
Every morning, they did so many exercises, like push-ups, sit-ups and more that Lisa felt really tired.
It was true that her body was fragile. Though she managed the hard training, she knew her capacity. She would soon fall if she continued beyond her limit.
"Soldiers! We are still on the First Phase of your training where discipline, values, and teamwork are the main focus. In the next days, you will receive briefings on basic first aid, sexual harassment, assault awareness, and prevention programs! Understand?" explained Sergeant Cole that made Lisa almost jump of joy for no reason.
"Aye, Sergeant!" Shouted Lisa's unit in chorus.
Her mind was already working on how she could seize the opportunity during the next programs because Jungkook was not often present at the previous activities.
The next day, all the recruits, both men and women were called in the big meeting room for the basic first aid program.
"This is good, but when are they going to teach us CPR?" May asked excitedly that made Lana cough.
"I will volunteer, you know if the acting patient is the Falcon or a handsome soldier," said May mischievously. She saw the CPR procedure on videos only but not in live action so she was anticipating how things were really done.
Lisa arched an eyebrow, so May added with a cough, "But of course, if it's the Wolf, Lisa should do the honor."
To May's anticipation, the officer finally began discussing the long-awaited CPR.
"You, soldier Chan, get up here!" An officer ordered who noticed that Lisa was not focused on the discussion and was talking to other seatmates.
"Straighten those backs, soldiers, and eyes to the front! No talking during the program! Understand?" Shouted the officer.
"Aye, Sir!" Answered the soldiers in chorus.
Jungkook and Jeru, who were observing, both frowned when Lisa walked towards the front.
"I need another soldier!" Shouted the Officer.
Lana was about to stand up, but Drey who was sitting at the front stood first.
"What the heck is he doing?" Lana whispered.
May shrugged her shoulders and said, "They will probably do the CPR? And Drey wanted to accompany Lisa instead of seeing her do it with another soldier?"
"One of you will be acting as the passed out and the other will do the CPR." Said the officer.
Lisa smiled and nodded.
Drey looked at her and smiled back. It's been days since they had an interaction because Drey was with the male soldiers.
"CPR involves chest compressions for adults between 5 cm (2.0 in) and 6 cm (2.4 in) deep and at a rate of at least 100 to 120 per minute. The rescuer may also provide artificial ventilation by either exhaling air into the subject's mouth or nose (mouth-to-mouth resuscitation) or using a device that pushes air into the subject's lungs (mechanical ventilation)," explained the officer.
"You, Russo, will do the proper chest compressions first," added the officer.
Lisa positioned and Drey was about to perform the necessary chest compressions as instructed, however...
