“What is your intent to ask me that kind of question?” Taeyeon asked uneasy.

“To know if I'm worth for you to worried and safe me...” Jiyong replied softly.

Taeyeon is silent for a while after he mentions that.

“Jiyong…” Taeyeon call his name softly.

“I'm asking because I want to make sure if I'm worth to be safe...” Jiyong said slowly.

“Yah! Of course, you deserve to be safe! Why you want to doubt about it?” suddenly Taeyeon asked while raise her voice.

“Perhaps... for my old sin... the karma judges me for hurting many people...” Jiyong replied with upset.

Taeyeon didn’t say anything when he said like that. For a moment, she's remember what have Jiyong done to her late friend.

“It's that what you think? You want to die just because of that? That's the stupid things I ever heard...” Taeyeon suddenly said with irate.

Jiyong stunned with her cold respond.

“You shouldn't play with your own life. Everyone has the right to live, no matter how bad the person is... death is not the solution...if you die, don't you think how your family will cope? Your friends? Have you thought about that? Don't be selfish, Jiyong.” Taeyeon continue with firm.

“That’s not what I mean…” Jiyong said try to explain.

“If not, why you have to say like that? You don't know how it's hurt when get to see loved one die in front of you. That hurt won't heal... you won't understand, Jiyong...” Taeyeon said while try to hold her emotion.

Jiyong is silent after he heard that.

“I'm sorry... I didn't mean to say like that... I just...” Jiyong said with hesitated but before he cloud finish his words, Taeyeon interrupt him and says

“As a doctor, I know I will face people death... but it's still not a doctor job to determine the death or life of a patient. I'll do my best to safe people... same goes to you. At that moment, during the surgery... I just want you to be safe...”

Afterward, no one is spoken. Both of them can hear each other breathe through the phone.

“Thank you, Taeyeon. For not give up on saving me…” Jiyong said to break the silent.

“Please don’t mention it anymore… I hope you get well soon…” Taeyeon replied softly.

“I will if you're always here for me...” Jiyong said with smiles.

Taeyeon rolling her eyes and then she reply

“Dr. Lee will be there for you,”

“I know… but I prefer someone that cared me more...” Jiyong said teasingly.

“For sure it's not me...” Taeyeon replied jokingly.

“Is it? Then, why Dr. Lee said to me that someone so worried during my surgery...?” Jiyong asked to .

Taeyeon feel uneasy when Jiyong mention that.

“What did he say?” Taeyeon asked curiously.

“Hurm... oh, also... I hear someone look like a zombie when I'm not around...” Jiyong continue to tease without answering her question.

Taeyeon start to feel her cheek blush when Jiyong mention that.

“Fany…” Taeyeon muttered while her eyes on Tiffany room door.

Jiyong chuckles when he can hear Taeyeon words.

“Don’t blame her… at least, I know someone is missing me…” Jiyong said with wide smiles.

“Not me…” Taeyeon replied to deny.

“Did I say it's you?” Jiyong asked teasingly.

Then, Taeyeon hear Jiyong chuckles on the other side.

“Okay, I have to finish my work in here. You go get a rest… night!” Taeyeon said to stop the conversation.

“Wait…” Jiyong said to stop her from hang up the phone.

“What?” Taeyeon asked firmly.

“I miss you too…” Jiyong replied and then he just hangs up the phone.

Taeyeon smiles while shakes her head. Afterward, she’s continue to finish writing her report.

The nurse carefully clean Jiyong wound.

Mr. Kwon looks at the wound with uneasy and then he says

“Jiyong, I think you should follow omma and stay with her there,”

“No… I’m not leaving…” Jiyong replied to refuse.

“Why? Don’t you look what happen to you now?” Mr. Kwon asked with worried.

Jiyong saw his father worried face and then he says
