Return (5)
After breakfast and rounds, free time was given.
Choi Ki-seok leaned on the bed and looked at the calendar.
The moment I noticed the red circle with today’s date, I smiled.
The long-awaited discharge day.
That day is today.
Ki-Seok Choi, who was smiling, began to pack up his luggage. Miscellaneous supplies, including toiletries, were placed in backpacks, and snacks were distributed to patients in the hospital room.
“I’m jealous. I’m jealous.”
“When will I be discharged from the hospital?”
Jang Ki-young and Kwon Jun-ho complained when they saw Choi Ki-seok organizing his luggage.
“Shit. Are you ready to go already?”
Moonjae Yoon finished washing his face and returned to the hospital room.
“Those who are going must go.”
“If possible, take me with you.”
“You need to stay longer.”
“I’m feeling fine?”
“Not only must your mind be refreshed, but you must also be refreshed here.”
Choi Ki-seok touched his left breast with his right hand.
“The surgery went well, so what’s the problem? I’m fine now.”
Yun Mun-jeong grumbled.
“Are you serious?”
“what?”
“I mean, I’m fine.”
Choi Ki-seok’s tone became aggressive. Then Yun Mun-jae blinked his eyes as if he was embarrassed.
“I still have chest pain and my chest feels tight.”
“That’s because it’s just been a while since the surgery, so it hurts. But how do you know I’m sick?”
“I heard you muttering to yourself yesterday.”
Choi Ki-seok gave a vague answer.
In fact, the state of the problem was understood through the eyes of Hippocrates.
Even though the surgery was completed successfully, Moon Jae Yoon’s progress was not good.
The medical staff may have made a mistake during surgery, or atherosclerosis may not be the only cause of the pain. The latter possibility is much higher.
“Brother, you lied and said you were fine during rounds this morning, right?”
“Huh? Uh. That’s…
” “During the afternoon rounds, tell me anything that’s uncomfortable. Doctors are not gods. There are some things you only know when the patient tells you. And…”
“······.”
“Treatment is not something that doctors do alone. “You do it together with the patient.”
“You. It turns out that you are more toxic than your wife?”
Moon-jae Yoon smiled and placed his hand on Ki-seok Choi’s shoulder.
“Okay. I’ll do as you say.”
“Yes.”
Choi Ki-seok half-packed his luggage and went to the station.
Lee Mi-ae was sitting near the entrance, tapping on the keyboard.
“Teacher. “Please give me that scale.”
“Would you like me to weigh myself?”
“Yes. “I’ve gained a lot of weight these days.”
Choi Ki-seok scratched the back of his head.
After leaving the sterile room, I lived in a general ward for about 10 days.
I gained a lot of weight due to the snacks I ate from time to time.
When I took off my slippers and got on the scale, the scale went up without mercy.
Final weight . He weighed 72 kilograms.
He weighed 5 kilograms more than when he was in the sterile room.
Choi Ki-seok’s eyebrows wrinkled.
“I thought my stomach had protruded for some reason.”
“Why? “I look better now,”
Lee Mi-ae continued, smiling.
“Considering my height, I’m at a normal weight now.”
“······.”
“And Mr. Ki-seok, do you know that?”
Lee Mi-ae hesitated. He opened his mouth and said,
“The fortress looks really nice. Before I had the surgery, I didn’t even talk to other patients, but lately, we get along well. It’s as if the person has changed after the surgery.”
“Of course I’ve changed.”
“Huh?”
“Because this place has changed.”
Choi Ki-seok pointed to his left chest and returned to the ward.
The older patients left. Only Park Yu-bin and Choi Ki-seok, male patients in their 30s, remained in the hospital room.
“Is there something you want to see?”
Park Yu-bin grabbed the remote control.
“No.”
“Really? Then, do you see what I want to see?”
Park Yu-bin frantically changed the channel.
The channel stopped on a music broadcast, and a four-member high school girl group danced to the music.
“It’s our time from now on. You don’t know how long I’ve been waiting for this time.”
A lively melody caught his ears.
Choi Ki-seok stared at the TV without realizing it.
“······.”
He was speechless for a moment.
The idol standing in the center of the girl group. The face was familiar.
While searching through my memories, I realized what kind of connection I had with idols.
Kang Eun-ha, the girl who dreamed of becoming a celebrity.
A patient I had seen at Jinseong University Hospital debuted as an idol. I saw
Kang Eun-ha dancing on TV. It was surprising.
“Hyung. What’s the name of that group?”
“You don’t know Super Venus?”
Park Yu-bin clicked her tongue and continued explaining.
Super Venus is a group that just debuted and is the hottest girl group recently. Their debut song ‘Beyond Love’ exploded and became a hit in various fields. He said he is also filming a commercial.
“I like Kang Eun-ha the best. Kang Eun-ha is the most innocent person.”
Park Yu-bin said in a deep voice.
Choi Ki-seok couldn’t take his eyes off the TV after listening to the entire explanation.
It is definitely a cause for congratulations that Kang Eun-ha made a successful debut.
But why doesn’t she look happy?
Clearly . He said that he was happiest when dancing and singing.
Although it was only on screen, he was able to capture an abnormal air current. After the stage
of Super Venus was over, the elderly patients returned to the hospital room.
The remote control was handed over to Moon-jae Yoon.
The channel had changed , but Choi Ki-seok continued to stare at the TV.
The image of Kang Eun-ha dancing on stage still lingered.
* * *
The hospital room was peaceful.
The patients were giggling while watching TV, and Choi Ki-seok joined in on the conversation and shared a laugh. .
Drurr.
The door opened and a female student in school uniform came in.
“Hello.”
The female student bowed to the patients in the hospital room and approached Moon-jae Yoon.
The female student’s name was Da-hye Yoon, and she was Moon-jae Yoon’s daughter.
“Is Da-hye here? ”
“Uh,”
Dahye Yoon answered briefly.
“Is this your first time seeing this friend? My name is Choi Ki-seok, and I am the prettiest younger sibling in the hospital room.”
“Hello.”
“Nice to meet you.”
Choi Ki-seok exchanged greetings with Yoon Da-hye.
Unlike Yoon Moon-jae, who had a rugged appearance, Yoon Da-hye exuded a pretty and elegant image.
She seemed to resemble her mother a lot.
“Are you studying well?”
“Not so.”
The conversation between father and daughter continued.
When Moon-jae Yoon asked something he was curious about, Da-hye Yoon gave a short answer.
Of course, the conversation did not last long.
“Da-hye. Dad wants some orange juice. “Can you buy me just one box from the convenience store?”
“Can’t Dad go? I’m a senior in high school now. I have to hurry up and study.”
“It’ll only take a moment…”
Moon-jae Yoon held out a 10,000-won bill.
Poof!
Da-hye Yoon took the money and left the hospital room, leaving Moon-jae Yoon scratching the back of his head with an embarrassed expression. “He’s actually a good kid. ”
“I guess you’re sensitive these days.”
Moon-jae Yoon said as if for other patients to hear. However, a bitterness that could not be hidden remained on his lips.
Ki-seok Choi, who watched the scene, left the hospital room after a short while. He lingered
near a convenience store and drank orange juice. I saw Dahye Yoon coming out of an accident.
Stamina: 5/10
Main symptom: Acne
Painful area: Skin
Current status: Non-emergency
Progress: Normal
[The level of passive is low, so further details cannot be determined.]
[Caution! This patient is in a period of gale and fury. [I am going through this.]
The moment I checked Dahye Yoon through the status window, I burst into laughter.
It was a time of stormy weather…
“Shall I go to the hospital room with you?”
“······Yes.” He
said that he did not like Dahye Yoon . He said with a facial expression.
Choi Ki-seok tried to talk about everyday topics such as the weather or school life.
Then he got to the point.
“Aren’t you being too harsh on your father earlier?”
“Why are you meddling?”
Da-hye Yoon’s gaze is sharp. I lost.
“You’re right. It’s a useless meddling, but would you like to listen to me for a moment?”
Choi Ki-seok continued calmly.
“Sometimes, think about how you feel before showing off. Parents are people too. “Your actions could hurt me.”
“······.”
“Do you know how upset your father was when you left like that?”
In response to Choi Ki-seok’s advice, Yoon Da-hye remained silent.
As if she had put a lock on her mouth.
Conversation While talking, we arrived at the hospital room.
Choi Ki-seok sat on the bed and Yoon Da-hye passed orange juice to the patients in the room.
“Drink.”
Yoon Da-hye opened the bottle of juice and handed it to Yoon Moon-jae.
“No. My daughter wants this kind of service?”
“You said you wanted to eat it.”
“Thank you.”
Moon-jae Yoon smiled, and Ki-seok Choi, who was watching the two, couldn’t hide his smile.
“Look. I heard my daughter is naturally this good. I didn’t even say anything, but he passed around the juice and opened the lid for me to drink.”
After Yoon Da-hye left, Yoon Moon-jae became a devoted father.
After a while, the incident was completed and time passed.
“Mr. Ki-seok. “Mother is here!”
Choi Ki-seok stood up at Lee Mi-ae’s cry.
Finally, he was discharged from the hospital.
