"Do I look good?" Dahyun asked her mom for the nth time.

Her mom chuckled and patted her cheeks. "If I say no, would you stop asking?"

She playfully rolled her eyes then smiled. "Mom, just answer my question."

"You always look good. No, scratch that. You are always beautiful."

Dahyun chuckled and checked the time.

7:30 p.m.

30 minutes more before he arrives.

"Your dad should be here by now." Her mom said as she put their remaining stuffs inside the duffel bag.

After a week, Dahyun can now finally go home after being discharged in the hospital.

She fainted a week ago and was rushed at the hospital immediately. The doctor said that it was due to over fatigue and advised her to stay at the hospital for further examinations.

Good thing, her doctor finally allowed her to go home. Perfect time to celebrate the Christmas Eve at home with both of her parents and her boyfriend... Vernon.

And now, they are waiting for him and her dad to arrive so they can finally go home and celebrate.

But 15 minutes...

10 minutes...

And another 5 minutes had passed but still there's no sign of her dad and Vernon.

She sighed and sat on the hospital bed as she watched her mom paced back and forth.

"I wanna go home." She said while puckering her lips. She then grabbed her phone and was about to contact Vernon, but it suddenly rang.

"Where are you?" She whined.

Vernon chuckled on the other line. "Look who's being impatient."

Dahyun lied down on the bed. "Please come faster."

"Okay okay. Just wait for a while. I'm about to cross the street now."

"Be careful." She said as she waits for his respond.

"It's so cold."

She can imagine him shivering. She smiled. "Did you wear the scarf that I made for you?"

"Of course! But it's not enough to keep me warm."

"Really? Then what will make you fully feel warm?"

"A hug from my girlfriend."

Dahyun bite her lip as she tries not to smile because of his cheesiness. "Then get here immediately so I can hug you."

"Aye aye captain!"

"The light's red now."

"Be careful, okay?" Dahyun said for the second time.

Just then she heard loud screams from the other line. "Vernon, what is happening?"

Then a loud screeching sound.

"Vernon?" She sat up from the bed. "Vernon, what is happening there? Answer me!"

"Dahyun..."

Then the line went off.

"Are you sure he's gonna come?" Wonwoo asked as he sling his bag on his shoulder.
