Waiting for You in a City | [JenLisa Adaptation]

07

Jennie had a calm week, working and living as usual.

During public holidays, the outpatient clinic took their time off in rotations, while the emergency department went to work as per normal.

As soon as it was a holiday, there were drunk people, those sick from overindulging in food and alcohol, as well as those with unexpected accidents brought in by 119, the entire emergency department was busy non-stop.

Late at night, another drunken male-female pair was sent in. When Jennie entered the observation room, the two were lying on beds next to each other and talking.

Jennie asked Jihyo to measure their blood pressure.

The boy was talking to the girl when he saw Jennie and laughed mischievously, "My angel baby, you're so pretty!"

The girl pointed at the boy and laughed, "You idiot, you're drunk! I'm the angel baby! Your angel baby is right here! I'm over here! Dumbass!"

The boy was not convinced, "You're the one that's fucking drunk, I don't get drunk even after a thousand cups!"

"Shut up! Do you believe I'll turn you into a stone with a kiss?"

The boy lifted the blankets to get out of bed, "Come on, kiss me! Whoever doesn't kiss me won't be having an orgasm for the whole fucking month!"

"What the hell are you talking about? I don't claim any negative energy!"

The boy snorted and lifted his middle finger subconsciously. The girl did the same thing and they both burst out laughing.

"Wait, wait, wait... Have you watched Cinderella?" The girl asked, smirking, "If I kiss you right now, you'll disappear completely from this world!"

"No, it doesn't work like that! From what my sister have told me before, the Prince gave Cinderella one last kiss and he miraculously saved her life!"

"Idiot! It's not Cinderella!"

"Oh...it wasn't her? Who's the Princess, then? Was it Elsa?"

"It's Fiona! You dumbass!"

The nurses exerted a lot of effort to push the two people back to bed.

Jennie glanced at the two of them and instructed the nurse in-charge, "Routine monitoring and infusion will do." After closing the diagnostic book, she put away her pen and left the observation room.

Jihyo followed closely.

"Those two know each other?"

Jihyo shook her head, "They don't know each other. They were sent here from two different directions."

"They act unexpectedly familiar. They clicked so fast with each other like a magnet."

"These two aren't that bad. The patients yesterday were the worst. They were hugging each other, rolling around, and then the bed got covered in urine."

Jennie squinted her eyes, "The government shouldn't give holidays. Sometimes, humans are like animals, they don't know how to control themselves once they've broken away from their restraints."

"Doctor Kim, if you really want that to happen then we will also have no vacation...and then we will die of exhaustion!" Jihyo reminded, quiet terrified at the mere thought. "That's the last thing I could have ever imagined happening!"

"Oh..." Jennie thought for a while, "Right?"

Barely a few hours later, Jihyo once again profoundly experienced what it meant to not understand restraint.

It was two o'clock in the morning, Jennie and several other surgeons, as well as several nurses, stood under the bright white lights of the consultation room looking in the same direction. Everyone was frowning.
