Just Us
Chap 57's

Chunghee entered the hospital with a smile that she always gave to the people she passed by. His steps he took lightly to his division room, to be honest he had missed the place very much. The closer she gets to her destination, the more her heart beats, the more she can imagine Karina's angry face and perhaps some of the swearing and punch she'll get when Karina first sees her arrival.

Actually he could return to the hospital the day after, but since today was Karina's shift, then with passion he decided to go straight back to work. Before entering the room he tried to show his best smile, he opened the door with excitement

"Kari.." she stopped when she found two young doctors in the room

The two doctors soon got up from their seats when they saw Chunghee coming. Previously they had been told that from today Chunghee will return to work.

"Annyeounghaseyo.." greet them with a bowed body.

"Eoh annyeong, are you the new doctor?" Chunghee asked by putting her bag on the chair

"Nde, we're interns here" replied one of the doctors

Chunghee nodded her head

"Did you see where Karina is? Has the girl left? Ah... She must be in the cafeteria for breakfast, right?" Ask Chunhee

The two doctors looked at each other with a clear twitch on their foreheads.

"Wae's? Why are you quiet?" Chunghee asked when she did not find the answer from the two juniors

"That's us.." The answer was cut off when someone opened the door of the room.

"Nunna" Sapa Chunghee found Mina entering the room

Mina smiled widely and then she hugged the body of her favorite junior, Chunhee also returned the hug no less tightly.

"I miss you chunghee-ah." said Mina.

"Nado I miss you so much too Nunna" Chunghee replied

Mina let go of her indentation, the woman looked at Chunghee with a sad look, and all that did not escape Chunghee's sight

"Wae's? What's with that view?" Ask Chunhee

Mina shook her head, the woman wiped Chunghee's arm

"Ah Nunna where is Karina? Isn't it the Shift now?" Ask Chunhee

Mina smiled blandly, she did not know what to answer like. Does he have to say about Karina's current state?

"Ah that, I'll explain later. Now you better see Kang Gyosungnim soon, he said you should see him after coming" Mina replied

"Like that, well I'll go to Kang Gyosungnim's room first" Chunghee said the man then stepped out of the room.

Chunghee had just walked out of her professor's room, her steps she took lightly to return to the room. When he was about to turn unintentionally he saw Karina just coming out of Son Gyosungnim's room, the man smiled he walked up to Karina. Actually, he was a little surprised when he found Karina's appearance, why did the girl dress casually only in jeans and hoodie only? Ah but he'll ask later. As her steps got closer to Karina she had to stop when a nurse walked over and called Karina. Chunghee's hurry is hiding behind the wall

"Karina euisanim" call the nurse

Karina stopped and turned to the nurse "Ck, how many times have I told you not to call me that. Aish you are this"

"Where might I work with my condition like this In Ha-ya, I don't want to take risks and make mistakes to make this hospital's good name bad" Karina replied

"Huh.. it's a pity, why this kind of thing can befall you Karina-ya. I hope you can recover soon and be able to return to being a doctor here, is not being a great doctor is your goal" In Ha said by giving Karina a few packs of medicine

Karina smiled and received the medicine "Gomawo I will try to recover, but to come back here I don't think I can. Mianhe In ha - ah"

"Gweanchana Karina-ya, the most important thing is that you take care of your health and remember to never miss again from your therapy okay" said In ha

Karina smiled and nodded enthusiastically "I promise this is the last one"

After the chat was over they parted ways, Karina who walked to get out and In ha who returned to the nurse's room. Seeing Karina who had passed by Chunghee turn around and walk hurriedly towards Son Gyosungnim's room, the man was curious since earlier about what had really happened to Karina.

Karina stopped walking, the girl looked back. The girl's sense of smell had smelled the perfume she had longed for, it was Chunghee's perfume. He remembered the scent, the perfume he had chosen for Chunghee. The girl turned around and went back down the aisle, but her hopes were dashed when what she expected she did not get.

Karina smiled bitterly, the girl looked down and then shook her head "There's no way it's her, if she comes home it must be a shitty man that will meet me or Daejung" his monologue. Before returning home Karina took the time to go to the hospital rooftop, this afternoon she wanted to enjoy the freshness of spring.

Chunghee was already standing at the door of Son Gyosungnim's room, the man knocked on the door before being welcomed in. When the owner of the room allowed him to enter, he entered the room.

"Son Gyosungnim" he said

"Eoh Chunghee-ah, when are you back" the middle-aged woman asked

"I just got back yesterday Gyosungnim" Chunghee replied

"Ck didn't I say it often, when we just both called me Imo. Is that hard for you Chunghee-ah" the doctor's daughter who is none other than Chunghee's mother's sister

"Nde, mianhe Imo" Chunghee replied

"You are completely ignorant just like your Eommamu. Ah yes, what are you here for? Are you having problems with your nerves?" Ask Son Gyosungnim

Chunghee chuckled "Aniyo Imo, I just want to ask about"

"Ah. so that's your goal. Geurae tell me what you want to know about the girl you love"

"Imo did I miss something while I was away? What happened while I was away Imo? Did something happen to Karina?" Read Chunghee

Son Gyosungnim sighed, the woman then grabbed Chunghee's hand for her to give a gentle swipe before she answered her nephew's question.

"The story is long Chunghee-ah, I hope after hearing that you will be fine and I beg you not to blame yourself after this. Just go with him, fix everything, take care of him and don't make him feel hurt again arasseo?"

Chunghee's eyebrows swooped sharply, the man grew even more curious. Not wanting to get any more curious the man finally nodded. Son Gyosungnim took a deep breath before he told her what happened to Karina

"Six months ago after your departure, Karina suffered a tremor while accompanying the operation. He made a mistake, but luckily it was just a small mistake. At first we thought it was just because he was nervous, but it turned out we were wrong. After that incident, Karina always had tremors, even when she would inject vitamins in patients. Kang Gyosu asked Karina for a checkup, and the results showed that she had a psychogenic tremor, where this is caused by mental disorders such as depression and post-traumatic stress disorder or (PTSD). This tremor will usually look severe when the sufferer is depressed. And in Karina's case, she had the tremor due to depression. You know, after your departure, Karina had a few accidents while driving, but she was lucky she only got minor injuries. Daejung said every night after your departure, Karina always cried, ****** her meal decreased even she consumed alcoholic beverages more often, so, and the peak is when he had an accident while driving a car in a drunk condition. Daejung also said that while Karina always blames herself for misunderstandings, the girl calls you often but you never return her messages and phone calls. Chunghee-ah, she always worried about you, never in a day did she miss you. You know even when it comes to therapy it's just your name she always calls"

Chunghee froze in place, like being struck by lightning during the day. He felt surprised by all the words from his Imo, he did not expect that it would be like this. He did not expect that his initial intention to stay away from Karina for the sake of the girl's happiness with Daejung ended up with something terrible like this. Inwardly he cursed himself for what had happened to Karina. Without saying a word, the man got up from his seat and bowed before leaving the room
