A glimpse of an old me

Looking at the emergency room entrance, Ae Jin can't help but get baffled. An accident was called in the intercom five minutes earlier saying a celebrity idol got into an accident and will be brought to their hospital. However, even before the victim can arrive there's already numerous fans and reporters outside the entrance waiting for his arrival. She already know it is gonna be a long night for her. A long long night...

"Dr. Jin!!" a desperate call from her resident doctor snap her out into reality "I'm sorry please don't leave yet. The celebrity will be a VIP. Professor Kwon is not here you're the best doctor in the building so far. We need your guidance" Chae An said in a desperate voice with both hand clasp together above her head to plead.

"Fine" Ae Jin said narrowing her eyes because she suddenly felt a surging headache. She took our her phone from her lab gown pockets and started calling someone.

" Hello Mom? Are you coming home?" said the person on the other line. Cherin is her 11 years old daughter whom she adores so much. Sometimes her work is demanding that she fails to come home on time every night just like now and it breaks her heart to tell her she won't be coming home to eat dinner with her again.

"Chaerin I'm sorry, some unlucky guy got into an accident and mommy needs to try to save him. So, don't wait for me okay?" although feeling sorry, she knows her daughter is very smart and will not protest like a willful child. She have to make time for her and make it up to her for all the time she let her down. She is determine to do that no matter what.

"Okay Mom. Tell me the story tomorrow for breakfast. I know you can save that guy" Her daughter didn't fail her. she can't help but feel proud of her.

"I will. sleep early okay? I love you" she can't help but smile and feel the warmth in her heart that almost make her eyes moist. She is indeed very lucky to have her as a daughter.

"Love you to Mom!." as the phone call ended she started to hear the ambulance siren getting closer and closer to the hospital. She rushed outside of the door to help with moving the patients. As the ambulance door opened, a awfully familiar man is lying in the stretcher bed and gave her a shock and her heart skip a beat at the same time.

The man who's half awake and half conscious is the man she has been adoring during her younger years. She hurriedly lead the team and the patient in before the reporters and fans can get any closer. They carefully transfer him into a hospital bed and while carefully checking him with external injuries, and checking his vitals, Ae jin can't help but keep looking at his handsome but worn out face.

The man keeps getting in and out of consciousness, sometimes he will look straight to her eyes, and then close his eyes again. She will be taken aback by his gazed but kept a professional manner.

"Let's do a CT" she turned to Chae An and ordered. The resident doctor was also in shock, she knows this celebrity very well. In fact its not an exaggeration to say that 90% of korean population knows who he is. The Super star Gyu Won. From a member of a internationally known kpop group, a balladeer, actor and a known variety star.

Looking at his ct other than external bruising and minor cuts. Gyu Won is perfectly okay. He was transferred immediately to the VIP ward after a couple of hours.

After 6 hours of monitoring Gyu Won, and assured herself that he's out of danger, Ae Jin head home. Try to sleep for the remaining 4 hours before her shift start again.

Ae Jin woke up feeling like she was run over by a truck. She have no idea how she manage to take a shower and go downstairs and greet her lovely daughter and eat breakfast together. After eating and telling her daughter her heroic story last night she hesitantly drove to work again.

At the hospital, Ae jin walked from the parking garage towards the elevator. Luckily shes an emergency doctor so her department is in the first floor. The moment she walk inside her quarter her resident told her that her patient has been looking for her all morning.

"Who?" she asked confusedly. she's an emergency doctor therefore she doesn't have a patient under her name that shes attending.

" Dr. Lee of the VIP ward the attending doctor of the super star Gyu Won came here earlier. He said the patient has been asking for you all morning" Chae rin said with a meaningful look.

"I don't know why. I don't think we know each other, Okay I'll be back then" She walked out and rode the elevator. Different thoughts came to her mind as to why he would look for her. Is he gonna complain about her? Is he not happy with his treatment? Ae Jin hesitated a bit and made 2 deep breaths before knocking at the door. The moment she open it she saw 8 people in the room, the funny thing is she knows almost every single person in the room.

"Good morning Mr. Gyu Won. How may I help you?" she scan him quickly before she bowed and respectfully greeted him. Her eyes almost smiling because she saw that he recovered his color and hes no longer the pale looking man in the bed last night. He became his old handsome self again.

"Gyu Won were going" one of the band member said, before Gyu Won can speak, and they all went out of the room. Ae Jin was a little glad. Being with too many celebrities in one room can be overwhelming.

"Dr. Ae Jin?" Gyu Won finally said. " I want to thank you properly for saving me last night" He said looking straight to her eyes with utmost seriousness.

"You're welcome Mr Gyu Won, I was just doing my job" she said humbly with a serious voice. " You are in a good hands with Dr. Lee, there's nothing else I have to go. Have a good day Mr Jo." she added softly and immediately try to turn.

"Dr. wait!" Gyu Won called with his exasperated but hoarse voice. When she turned, he suddenly lost the courage to say something but immediately blurted the words he wanted to say with a desperate breath "May I have your number. I would like to treat you on a meal when I recovered"
