"Sunbae-nim!" I called him through the hallway as I tried catching my breath, after running in the whole hospital.
"Oh, Dr. Kim ..." he softly smiled at me, as he eyed me up and down "What's going on?"
"Hum...I'm..." I tried smiling as I had difficulties catching my breath "I heard you were with Dr. Jeon not long ago, so I ran all the way here to ask you where he was, please."
"Oh," he looked at me "We...he—" I cut him off
"Wait." I stood straight and put my hands in my white coat "When is the meeting with President Jeon."
"Hum, I don't know." He scratched the back of his neck "Dr. Jeon is in the staff room, you should go there and ask him."
"Ah okay." I said "See you later Dr. Park." I speed walked toward the elevator and pressed the button of the floor where the staff room is.
I waited a little bit in the elevator, with the little awkward music in the background. I couldn't stop checking my phone. It's not like someone was gonna text me anyways and I don't even have friend, even though I'm working as a GS (general surgeon). We don't have much GS here, but I'm not friends with my other colleagues either. It's kinda lame, I know, but I don't know how to talk to people.
As I was in my thought, I finally arrived on the 6th floor and walked toward the staff room. The more I was getting closer, the more I was getting nervous.
I peeped through the small window and saw him sitting on the chair, his glasses on his nose and reading a book while sipping on a banana milk.
I walked in the room and closed the door behind me. "Sunbae-nim?" I said
"Ah, Dr. Kim," he looked at me "Stop calling me sunbae-nim, just call me sunbae or Jungkook." He winked
(Sunbae-nim is very very formal way to call your colleagues at work, sunbae is still formal, but less than sunbae-nim.)
"Okay then," I fidgeted with my fingers "Sunbae?"
"Yes?" He softly sighed "What is it?" He put his glasses on the table and looked at me.
"I saw Mr. Park in the hallway and asked him about the weekly meeting with your fath-" I cut myself off realizing what I was about to say, that we don't really mention at work "I mean...Chairman Jeon." I blushed
"It's in 10 minutes. Do you wanna go together?" He continued reading the book he was reading
"Uh, me?" I pointed at myself, like the dumb woman that I am.
"Dr. Kim." He looked at me with a stern look
"Sorry..." I nervously chuckled "I am just a little bit nervous, I have an ES (emergency surgery)"
"Me too, but on the patient with the intestinal infection. I have to remove some parts of his intestines." He looked at me
"Oh, that sounds okay." I smiled
"Yeah, it'll be quick, but we still got to be careful though." He smiled at me "it will take at least 2 hours."
"Oh, I have a NS after our meeting with the President." I cracked my neck "It will take at least 13 hours. I have to remove a tumor in the patient's brain." I sighed
"Aren't you a GS ?" He asked with widened eyes
"I have three licenses." I said dumbfounded "I thought you knew..."
"Three?! I never knew that!" He said surprised "What area are you specialized in?"
"GS (general surgeon), CS (cardiothoracic surgeon) and NS (neurosurgeon)" I simply answered
"Wow, you must be talented, that takes a lot of times to learn all of that and have 3 licenses." He said, with his surprised expression glued on his face
"Well, I guess." I smiled "what about you?" I asked out of curiosity
"I am a PDS (pediatric surgeon) and a GS." He looked at me and smiled showing his bunny teeth
"Omo..." I muttered to myself as I felt my heart beating, after seeing his cute and pretty smile
"Let's go to the meeting." He opened the door and waited for me to walk out first.
...In President Jeon's office - 1pm
"You can sit guys." Mr. Jeon laughed "don't be so stiff around me, sit down."
"Thank you sir." I said with a little smile on my face and readjusted my glasses on my nose before sitting down on the luxurious chair
"Can someone summarize the plans for today and the rest of the week?" Asked the President
"I'll do it." Dr. Min said "Beginning from today, we have 3 surgeries planned and for the rest of week, we have in total 7 surgeries, and 2 VIP patients that need to be checked on."
"Thank you, Dr. Min." He nodded "That's a lot of surgeries. I heard Dr. Kim is going to proceed and lead the operation on the patient with the tumor. It's a long operation, I hope it will go well." He genuinely smiled at me
"How long will it last?" Asked Dr. Kim straight looking at me in the eyes
"It will last 13 hours." I answered
"13?!" Shouted the Kim doctors "You are joking right...?"
"It's not the first time so I'll be okay." I smiled as their reaction were kind of funny
"You guys, stop bothering her with questions." Dr. Jeon said as he tried to calm his friends and stop them from asking more questions
"No, it's okay sunbae." I chuckled "It'll be long, I'm going to make sure to eat before going into the OR (operation room)."
"Let's bring her a lot of food in the staff room guys, okay?" Dr. Kim said, as I assumed to be named Taehyung, said to his friends without waiting for an answer
"Cute." I muttered to myself with a little smile on my face, but quickly returned to my resting face as I saw them looking at me
"Anyways, I have meetings to attend, so I'll see you guys around. Have a nice day and good luck with your surgeries." President Jeon said before leaving us into the office and we all stood up to bow
The door closed behind itself "Damn..." Dr. Min sighed
"I have surgery in 2 hours, and I think that having a nap is not a bad idea." I said "I'm going into the staff room." I waved at them and left the office
Dr. Jeon's POV
"Guys." I said, dropping the formalities around my hyungs, since my father isn't here
"Yah." Jimin said "We're still at work." He pointed at me
"I don't care." I said "Hyung..." I added feeling his scary glare on me
"Whatever, what shall we do after work, it's been a long time we didn't hang out, since we kept getting called for ER patients." Namjoon yawned
"I'll go into my office I have surgery later, sorry guys." Jin said as he took off his glasses and walked the office
"He's been operating on patients everyday since 2 weeks," Yoongi explained "and he's been on night shifts for 2 weeks also."
"Oof, he must be exhausted." I said as I pursed my lips and sincerely felt bad for him
"At least he gets paid much more than us." Hoseok fake cried "We are doctors but we look broke as fuck."
"We all not we ain't broke, we just acting like we are, because we don't even have time to go shopping or buy anything." Taehyung sighed "I have more than 600k$ saved in my spare account, because I don't have time to spend my money."
"I only spend money, to buy gasoline for the car and food." I sighed "I was about to say that we should go in the weekend, but you guys know..." I nervously laughed knowing that doctors don't really have free time
"We are complaining, but we love our job." Namjoon chuckled
"I'm glad we do, 'cause this job gets tiring sometimes." I yawned "I barely slept since 3 days, I only took naps of 30 minutes every time I had time to. Since there aren't that much GS in this hospital, they always call for me or other GS."
"There are Dr. Kim as a GS, me, you, Jin Hyung, Namjoon Hyung too and Hoseok too. We are more than six right?" Yoongi said
"We are 13-15 GS in this big hospital bro." Namjoon explained "If we only count on the best GS here, they are only 5 left." He chuckled
"What do you mean five?" Hoseok asked
"You're good in general surgery, but not as good as you are in PDS." Namjoon assumed "Don't say otherwise, everyone says so. You're good with kids, like Jungkook."
"Guys, I didn't tell you, but when I was walking with Dr. Kim—"
"What? You walked with her?!" Jimin exclaimed
"Yes, I did." I lightly smirked "So as I was walking with her, we were talking about other specialities and she told me she had three licenses."
"W-What do you mean, three?" Namjoon stuttered and took off his glasses "I only have one, how come everyone of you has at least two licenses?!"
"Well, she apparently studied medicine since she was a kid, because it always interested her, but I was also surprised, she must be talented to have three licenses." I explained "She doesn't even look smart."
"I was about to say the same about you." Hoseok chuckled
"Says you." I said a little bit annoyed
"Actually, we made it here, as doctors. So none of us is considered dumb." Jimin said with a proud smile on his cute face
"Whatever, that means she is getting paid more than we do." Taehyung heavily sighed
"Why are you always talking about money?" I looked at him dumbfounded and exhausted "And of course she is, she has three licenses, but y'all should be happy with one or two already, it's paying good money."
"I want to eat janjjangmyeon~" whined Jimin as he pouted
"Stop pouting..." Yoongi muttered to himself
Dr. Kim - Y/n's POV
I was walking toward the OR (operating room) for the tumor operation in the patient's brain. I was not nervous since it wasn't the first time doing this operation, but I was more nervous for the amount of time I was going to stay in the OR, operating and staying focused for 13 hours. As I thought about all of this, I washed my hand with Iodine (antibacterial soap).
A sudden thought came in my mind, Dr. Jeon's smile. He is an handsome man, not gonna lie. He has a cute smile, he is a kind person and polite.
"Damn, what am I thinking." I whispered to myself and finished rinsing the soap on my hands
I pressed the button on the wall with my feet and waited for the door to automatically open and entered the OR, being careful about not touching anything with my hands.
"Dr. Kim." the nurse said "here." She gave me a towel to dry my hands and after that she helped me putting the blue coat and tied it behind my neck and my back. She also helped me with the gloves
"Is everything ready?" I said making my way toward the chair, taking off my slippers and sitting down on the chair
"Yes, Dr. Kim." Answered the nurses
"Anesthesiologist, can we start the surgery?" I asked him with concentration
"Yes." He answered
"What are his vitals?"
"Pulse, 66 bpm. Respiration 25 and blood pressure 173/88." He answered
"Okay, I'll proceed a Craniotomy, I'll open the skull, I'll use a microscope if needed, please don't talk while I'm operating. Prepare tissues, fluid might flow out of the brain. I'll remove the tumor, it will be easier since I know where it is. Stay focused while I'm operating, okay?" I made everything clear and summarized everything I was going to do for those 13 hours. They all nodded
"Okay. Let's start." I sighed "Craniotome, please." I asked for the medical drill that I'll use to drill a simple burr hole in the skull.
...13 hours later
"Okay, I'm done." I said satisfied with the work I did "Good job guys."
"Thank you, Dr. Kim. You too." They all slightly bowed at me and I bowed back
"Please wrap it up for me." I gently asked "You all deserve a good rest after that."
"Thank you, Dr. Kim." They all said and I exited the OR
I threw my gloves, and the blue coat into the trash can next to the OR's door. I yawned and took of my scrub cap, letting my hair slide down on my shoulders and back. I also took off my glasses to scratch my eyes out of tiredness.
"Aigoo..." I loudly yawned and complained about the tiredness "How come I stayed 13 hours on a chair, operating on someone's brain?" I wondered
"Dr. Kim," a familiar voice held me back by my arm "Come with me."
"Oh, Dr. Jeon..." I didnt even try to escape, because I was tired and who would escape from such a handsome man to be honest
I just followed him through the hallway and we apparently headed toward the staff room. As we arrived he opened the door and let me in first.
"Ah, Mr.—" I widened my eyes "What are you all doing here?"
"It's the staff room." Jimin mumbled
"Yeah," Dr. Kim glared at Dr. Park "and I told you we'll bring a lot of food for you right?" He said with his boxy smile
"Huh? But, I ate before going to surgery—"
"It was 13 hours ago." Dr. Jung facepalmed himself "Let's eat." He simply said before hurrying toward the table and putting plates for everyone
"Come on." Dr. Jeon whispered to me with a little smile on his face
"Okay..." I shyly sat down in between Dr. Jeon and Dr. Kim "By the way, my name is Y/n. You guys don't have to call me Dr. Kim, when there is no one around." I slightly blushed
"I was waiting for someone to say that." Dr. Jung exclaimed "My name is Hoseok, next to me is Jin and Namjoon, next to you is Jungkook and Taehyung, here is Yoongi and Jimin." He smiled, mouth full of food
"You all have nice and original names." I chuckled "I like it. It sounds fun hanging out with you." I smiled
"You look way prettier without your glasses and pony tail." Jimin complimented
"Thank you." I giggled "but I don't think so. Work has been a mess these days and I don't even know what I look like since 3 days."
"I feel you." Jin answered with a little laugh "I have been working non stop since 2 weeks, I even lost track of time yesterday. I didn't even know if it was day or night." He laughed
"That happened to me too!" Taehyung exclaimed "Yoona came to me like 'are you on the night shift?' And I was like 'what night shift, it's only 8am!' and then she said 'it's 8pm, you should sleep, you look dead'. I felt really weak at that moment." He chuckled
"This job is hard, but at least we do our best to save lives." I said with a cheerful voice "I sometimes wanna resign, once, one of my patient had difficulties staying alive, I was doing CPR, but he didn't come back to life. I was like 'I don't deserve to be a doctor. I can't even keep my patient alive.' That hits hard sometimes, but it's the disadvantage of this job. We got to live with it and get used to it." I simply said
"I felt that!!" Namjoon explained "The first time it happened to me, I was doing CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) for 30 minutes and using the defribillator. I was crying, my colleagues tried stopping me, but I didn't want to give up."
...30 Minutes later
"And then all his poop came out, it was fucking gross." I fake gagged "Why would you put golf balls up in your asshole?" I laughed
"Not you talking about poop while eating." Jungkook chuckled, dumbfounded about our conversation
"We are operating on all sorts of patients. I've seen everything and nothing can disgust me anymore." I said as I took a bit the pizza slice on my plate "You want some?" I put my pizza slice in front of his mouth and he took a bite of it
"Guys, I think we are getting along very well with Y/n." Jin smiled "Do you want to come with us this weekend?"
"Where?" I looked at them with my round doe eyes.
"I don't know. We wanted to go out, but it's winter honestly I feel staying like inside." He said
"I know we don't know each other that well, but y'all can come over at mine and I'll cook for you. We can watch a movie, I have a video projector in my house." I excitedly said "I'll invite friends of mines."
"Yeah, that actually sounds like a good idea." Taehyung agreed
"Ok. Let's all make sure we'll be free on Sunday at least." Jungkook said
"That sounds okay for me, I have no operation on Sunday and I have no patients to take care of." Jimin said
"Nice. We should go back to work." I said as I stood up and put all the trash away.
I tied up my hair with my hair tie and put on my glasses as I exited the room with the boys.
As we walked together, we all suddenly heard our phone buzzing and saw the red button on the message, meaning that there an emergency in the ER. "Let's go." Said Namjoon as we speed walked there.
