Marital WoesJinyoung leaped over the bonnet of his car and quickly got into the vehicle, speeding off towards the hospital.
"Please, don't let anything happen to Jungah..." He muttered under his breath.

Jinyoung frantically ran towards the main counter of the A&E department.
"Excuse me, there was a woman sent in from an accident at Edge. Where is she?"
The nurse looked up and glanced at her files.
"She seems to be in the operating theatre. Let me check for you."
He nodded and looked around, before seeing a theatre being used, the red light above the doors was lit up. He shuffled his feet over to the doors and peered in through the small window.
His heart pounded against his chest as a million different possibilities. He held onto Jungah's necklace and collapsed onto the chair beside the doors.
Jinyoung stared at the wedding ring in his hands, his fingers playing with the chain.
He sighed and he closed his fingers around the ring and chain, before bringing it to his chest. He closed his eyes and squeezed them shut.

"Park Jinyoung? What are you doing here?"

"But... why was there cardboard boxes from his office?" Jinyoung asked.

Jinyoung clenched his jaw.
"Yoon told you to clean his rubbish?"
