“Alrighty Pengu, I’ve done everything that’s necessary; from faking your qualifications and achievements to making into you the best doc they can have!” Sana exclaimed excitedly while stretching her arms outwards. As Sana spun her chair around to look at Mina, her glasses slightly slid down her pointy nose, she sees Mina double-checking her back pack. Mina stayed up all night to revise all the doctor stuff she needed to know, as Momo referred them to be.

  “You know you don’t have to be so tense?” Momo came into Sana’s room with a bag of chips, as she continued. “Okay, maybe a little, but we trust you. You’re smart! There’s a reason why you are appointed to infiltrate the hospital as a doctor. If it was me, I would have to be a janitor or something.” Momo said while wrinkling her nose together. That made Mina relaxed a little. Momo and Sana definitely have a thing in stress relief.

  As Mina was getting ready to leave their dorm, Jihyo came out from the kitchen with a lunch box in her hand. She wiped off the sweat on her face as she stood at the entrance to the kitchen. She looked as motherly as before, with her hair tied up in a bun, and an apron around her waist.

“Looking smart today, Dr Myoui?” Jihyo said in a teasing tone as she casually picked up the fake ID on her front pocket that Sana made for her. Passing (more like shoving) the lunch box to Mina, she said, “In case, you know, who tries to poison you.” The Trinity laughed a little before finally sending Mina off in her Matte Black Audi R8.

  “Drive safely!” Jihyo shouted as Momo and Sana waved Mina goodbye.

  Upon reaching AceAid Medical Centre, one can be awed by the glass skyscraper and how many people are going in and out of the hospital. The Medical Centre stood out among the nearby buildings, like a beacon in an area. Mina couldn’t help but stare in disbelief as she drove her car into the basement carpark. After successfully parking her Audi, she took one last look into the mirror and adjusted her clothing before taking her back pack and leaving for the Director’s Office.

  *Knock knock*

  “Please enter.” Chou Yi said behind the door. Mina turned the door knob, taking in a deep breath; she entered the office with as much pride and courage she could muster.

  “Good morning Sir, I’m Dr Myoui Mina, and I will be joining the AceAid medical team from today.” After finishing her sentence, she gave a proud smile to the shocked man from behind the large office table.

  “Myoui… Mina..?”

Chou Yi was agape in horror. Memories of the fateful incident 15 years ago reappeared in his mind.

“Mind… telling me a little about yourself?” He asked, his voice slightly shaking.

  Mina told him about how she lost her parents when she was young, but had no memories of it, then to how a rich family adopted her and how she studied to become a doctor, then finally joining Doctors Beyond Borders. Of course, they were mostly false. Finally releasing the breath that Chou Yi had unknowingly been holding onto, he sighed in relief, before reaching out his hand. At least she did not remember the incident 15 years ago, He thought to himself.

  “I have high anticipation to finally be working with you. Hope you would like it here!” Chou Yi said, while taking Mina’s hand into his. Meanwhile, Mina has been holding the urge to not flash out the pocket knife Jihyo gave her and stuck it right into his throat.

  “Same here.” Mina kind of gritted through her teeth, while trying her 200% to smile a friendly and bright smile.

  Mina was temporarily assigned to an overly enthusiastic nurse, who introduces herself as Dahyun. Honestly, Mina finds her a little too talkative and touchy for her liking. Dahyun will be showing her around the hospital, from the emergency rooms to every single patient room. Dahyun has been a really hospitable colleague, trying her best to help Mina get used to how the hospital works.

  “Hey, wanna join my group of friends for lunch?” Dahyun beamed at Mina, which she awkwardly accepts. Taking the lunch box Jihyo made, she entered the cafeteria behind Dahyun and immediately saw a group of girls waving hysterically at her direction. Dahyun led Mina to the table. Upon sitting down, a bunny looking girl asked instantly, “Hey Dubu, who is this new friend of yours?”

  “Hi, I’m Myoui Mina, I’m a cardiothoracic surgeon. It’s my first day here, nice to meet you all.” Mina replied while giving the group a small smile.

  “Oh, I’m Nayeon, a nurse. I mainly work at the emergency department.” The bunny-looking girl introduced herself while smiling brightly, which exposed her bunny teeth. Cute, Mina admitted to herself.

  “We’re the No-Jam Bros!” 2 bob cut girls introduced, “I’m Jeongyeon, a general surgeon.” the taller one said while lifting her chin. “I’m Chaeyoung, also a general surgeon.” the shorter one followed after, while she finger gunned at Mina.

  After the short intro, Mina took out her bento while the rest ate the food from the hospital’s cafeteria. Upon opening the bento, she was pleasantly surprised to see the amount of food in the lunch box. There was omelette, smoked salmon, grilled broccoli and carrots, and of course not to forget, plentiful of ketchup nicely trailed on the food. A little note was stuck on the cover of the lunch box saying “Don’t forget to share the food and make some friends!” Smiling slightly, Mina asked if they rest want to try some of her food her elder sister (mom) prepared for her.

  “Waahhh!” a unified gasp was heard from the group. Everyone looked at Mina with sparkles in their eyes as they each took a little of her food.

  “Your sister sure has a thing in cooking!” Nayeon exclaimed, as she took a small portion of the grilled salmon using her chopsticks, and put it in . “The food is incredibly delicious! She could totally be a chef in our cafeteria!”

Mina could only chuckle at the girls, as they had their noisy conversations. Slightly amused at the friendly nature of this group of girls, Mina thought to herself: Maybe it is a lot easier than I thought to fit in here..?

A/N: Finally, a slightly longer chapter... >.<'ll  Anyways, I'm not really that knowledgeable about all the doctors' stuff, so do forgive me when I make mistakes... Maths student here... 

As usual, comments are much appreciated! I do know that it's quite a slow progressing story, do be patient, please? Thank you! <3
