"Mom, I'm working the night shift today, and I will be leaving in a minute. Please rest well. I'll arrange for your lunch and dinner to be delivered. Haruto is off school tomorrow, so he'll come to visit you."
"Get lost." Her mother still treated her with the same disdainful attitude.
From there, Lisa took the bus to Asan medical center, the hospital where she worked as an intern nurse.
She checked her watch when she arrived. There were still forty minutes until the start of her shift. Changing into her nurse's uniform, she made her way to the ophthalmology building.
She still wanted to give Kai and her relationship one more try. After all, they had been together for three years. Even if there was no love between them, there was still a faint attachment.
When Lisa arrived, the door was only half closed. Just as she was about to knock, she heard a female voice from inside.
"Doctor Kim, you're the worst. You've made my hair all messy."
"It's fine. I'll fix your hair for you later. Come here and give me a kiss first."
Lisa could tell that the voices belonged to Dahyun and Kai.
No wonder he had moved out in such a hurry. So that was how things were...
The corner of her lips twitched. With a chuckle, she lowered the hand she'd raised to knock and turned around to leave.
She was just in time to see another senior doctor from the Ophthalmology Department approaching the door. "Huh, Lisa, why don't you go inside if you're already here?"
"It's alright. I have other things to do."
By this time, the two inside had clearly heard the conversation. Dahyun immediately leaped up from Kai's lap, smoothing out her collar and hair.
That was when the another ophthalmologist just walked in. Glancing at Dahyun, he told Kai, "I just saw your fiancé."
"Oh really?" Kai's response was rather indifferent.
"You guys… are you guys alright? Weren't you two getting married soon?"
"Not anymore."
"You can't be serious …" that senior doctor was surprised.
"I see no reason to keep a woman like that around." With that, Kai stood up and, buttoning up his white lab coat, left the room.
Dahyun trailed cautiously behind him.
Seeing this, that senior doctor just shook his head, dejected. Young people these days really treated relationships too lightly. What had the world come to?
"Doctor Kim, did you really… break up with Lisa?"
"What do you think?"
"That's fantastic! Now, people won't say that I'm the 'other woman' anymore. When are you going to tell everyone at the hospital that we are together?" Dahyun whined, half-flirting.
Kai glanced at her carelessly, "What's the rush? Isn't it more fun to sneak around?"
"Oh, you're the worst! Really…" Dahyun reached out and pinched Kai's arm lightly as she squealed.
As one of the assistant nurses in the Ophthalmology Department, she had admired Kai for a long time, and for a good reason: Kai was both handsome and smart.
In addition, his surgery performances had been good. So, although he was still an intern, he would soon become an attending physician. By then, his status within the department would be even higher.
