Jin opened the door. "Want to sit around for a while?"

"N-no, It's alright...." Jisoo quickly waved him off and giggled awkwardly. "I'm going home....hahaha"

"Stop!" Jin's voice was abrupt and commanding.

Jisoo froze immediately.

"Wait for me a bit. I'll bring you home"

He was not comfortable with a girl going off alone.

Jisoo watched as he left. She was able to react eventually, and became angry.

Damn it. He actually had the gall to tell her what to do!

When he comes out, she was going to split his head.

Jin, however, came out in his car with his window half-wound down.

He already had another pair of glasses on.

The gates of the mansion were automated. As they opened, he turned to Jisoo. "Get in"

"Okay"

Jisoo was most vulnerable when it came to good-looking men. She responded meekly, and got inside the car as if she zero integrity.

However, her sensitive nose quickly picked up a familiar scent within.

Her mind hummed.

That scent....it's the same smell as the man who saved her in the bar that night

She could not help turning to stare at Jin.

His cold, breezy look was identical to the man who helped her.

He had glasses on as well, not to mention that scent of antiseptics.

There were so many things which matched that there couldn't be more coincidence in this world.

As such, Jisoo could not stop herself from asking, "Jin. You are the one who saved me that bar that night, right?"

This time, she sounded especially sure.

Meanwhile Jin swerved the steering wheel to turn the car into a junction. His eyes remained as flat as an old well, however, and he grunted an affirmative with great composure.

Jisoo was was delighted in return but that lasted for just a moments as her inward warmth cooled and she became unable to smile.

"Why didn't you admit it before?"

She couldn't understand.

But that as it may, Jin glanced at her with the corner of his eyes.

"Because it's not worth mentioning"

Jisoo's face went white. "Why"

Why was it not worth mentioning? Was she that terrible?

Jin's voice turned very cold. "I'm a doctor. I meet thousands of patients every day. Why must I remember you?"

"Kim Jisoo, you shouldn't think too highly of yourself. I saved you because It was no effort at all, and I would have done the same even if it wasn't you that night"

His words, like a bucket of ice water splashed down over Jisoo's head, leaving her frozen from head to toe.

It made sense. He is a doctor who has to meet many people every day, and he might not remember her just because she did.

Even so....that night, they were at the bar and not the hospital. There's no reason he remembered nothing. 

She could not help wanting to disappear right then.
