Hello
Unfairness of Love [Old Ver.]A frustrated sigh burst through Yongsun's painted lips as she removed the ponytail from her hair. She lightly ruffled the pink locks that fell to her shoulders, attempting to hide the fact that it was just pulled up. Yongsun leaned forward, resting her elbows on the railing in front of her. Being on the second floor of the hospital, below her was a big, empty hallway that connected to the lobby. The walls of the lobby and hall rose two levels and were lined with windows, letting in a generous amount of sunlight. Yongsun thought the sunshine was rather revigorating, though she would have wished far more to be outside.
Yongsun finally had the opportunity to step out after the particularly hectic morning. She got called into work while she was getting breakfast because the Intensive Care Unit needed an extra set of hands. A couple got into a particularly nasty car accident early that morning. They needed to be rushed to the hospital via helicopter and required emergency surgery. The team that Yongsun was part of managed to save the both of them without too many complications, but the procedures took up the whole morning.
It was only lunchtime, yet to Yongsun it felt like it should be way past midnight. She thought that a good splash of water to her face would be refreshing, but she didn't dare ruin her makeup. Instead, she settled with finishing off the water bottle that she was holding. She downed the remaining water in a few big gulps before tossing the bottle into a recycling bin.
She watched the world just beyond the glass. Nothing was particularly interesting except for maybe a truck pulling around here and a car leaving the parking lot there. Yongsun entertained herself with the sights of the city until a chill ran down her spine and the little hairs on the back of her neck stood up.
Yongsun could have sworn she was being watched, that a pair of eyes were fixated on her. She didn't see them, but she could feel them digging deep into her skin. The nurse glanced over to see that her intuition was correct. A pair of dark brown eyes were staring right at her, albeit without realization. Returning the woman's gaze, she allowed herself a quick look up and down the onlooker.
'A patient, huh?' Yongsun thought, taking note of their white scrubs with tiny floral patterns.
Glancing back up at the woman's face, she tried to see if she recognized her. It was to no avail. With the situation growing more and more uneasy, she decided to finally speak up.
"Can I help you, ma'am?"
The patient's eyes widened suddenly, and her lips parted slightly. Yongsun noticed her face quickly reddened — the darkest shade of red she had ever seen someone’s face turn. A strangled noise left just before she shook her head as if to bring her mind back down to earth.
"No, no!" She quickly spat out. Her voice quivered. "I'm sorry. I was lost in thought."
Indeed she was lost in thought, though it wasn't exactly as she tried to play it off as. She couldn't help but note the nurse's appearance. When she saw Yongsun’s face as she walked over, all she could think was, 'wow.' She couldn't help but think of just how pretty the woman was. The patient wanted to quickly get a good look at the woman - to remember her face - though it turned out to be far too long.
Yongsun opened to respond, but the sight and sounds of several people approaching stalled her. Looking at all the equipment that they lugged around, she suspected that they were
