It’s not that. It’s my fault for not being able to accept the goodwill you’re showing me.
Actually, her teeth were chattering from the cold. Just wearing his jacket seemed to make her feel a bit better.
“Thank you.”
Tae Kyu gestured for Eun Jae to come under the large umbrella he had opened.
“What’s the use of having a husband? He’s completely useless.”
“Sun Woo is busy, you know.”
“Busy my ass. Being a professor is more manageable than being a resident. Have you ever been awake for 36 hours straight? That’s daily life for me.”
Rambling on, Tae Kyu glanced at Eun Jae’s face, which seemed somewhat sad.
He didn’t want to see Eun Jae upset, even if Yoon Sun Woo was a piece of work. It was a strange feeling indeed.
“Well… there’s a critical patient in the thoracic surgery department right now, so it was an emergency until a while ago. I heard briefly during a call with a hospital official that the surgery went well. When it comes to lung transplant surgeries in Korea, Yoon Sun Woo is pretty much the best. He’s very understanding, so the surgery outcomes are always good.”
It’s not that he didn’t come to pick you up because he was pretending to be busy; he really was busy. So don’t feel too upset.
“I see.”
“Patients are flooding into the hospital because of Yoon Sun Woo. It’s like he’s doing all of Korea’s lung transplants by himself. No, even some famous person from America came to our hospital. Just to get surgery from Yoon Sun Woo. Now, it’s even globally…”
Listening quietly to Tae Kyu’s words, Eun Jae chuckled audibly.
“Why are you laughing?”
“You. You like Sun Woo, don’t you?”
Tae Kyu widened his eyes, glaring at Eun Jae as if annoyed.
“What? Who do I like?”
“It seems like it. You deny it, but there’s affection in your words. Oh, is it not affection but a grudge?”
“There’s nothing like that.”
“Why not? It would be nice for family to be close. I’m jealous, actually.”
Despite it all, Tae Kyu’s heart was pounding. He always said he hated Yoon Sun Woo more than anyone in the world.
“If you really like someone, that’s what you say,” Eun Jae said with a smile, looking at Tae Kyu.
“Anyway, do my lips really look chapped? Do they look like they hurt? Why do lips get chapped when it’s cold?”
“When the body temperature drops, blood vessels constrict to keep heat from escaping. Simply put, this hinders blood circulation. Lips have thin skin, so blood vessels are more visible, making chapping more noticeable.”
“As if you’re not a doctor.”
Eun Jae happily smiled, thinking of the two who were alike yet different.
Somehow, it seemed like the two together would make an interesting picture. They’d go well together. She wanted to see that picture soon.
Thinking about it made her chuckle again.
While they were sharing a pleasant conversation, Eun Jae stopped in her tracks. A dark silhouette blocked their way. Their eyes met those of Tae Kyu, who was staring at them suspiciously.
“…….”
“…….”
“…….”
The sound of raindrops hitting their umbrellas was the only thing that could be heard. No one dared to speak.
This situation is ripe for misunderstanding.
Finally gathering the courage to speak, Eun Jae broke the silence.
“So… in front of us here—”
“You don’t have to explain. I won’t misunderstand.”
“……”
“Come here.”
Just as Eun Jae was about to step toward Sun Woo, Tae Kyu gently nudged her back.
And he whispered softly, ‘Wear it.’
Nodding slightly at Tae Kyu, Eun Jae moved under Sun Woo’s umbrella.
As she turned her back, Tae Kyu stood there, frozen.
Something heavy seemed to hang over him, stinging at the corners of his eyes. Relieved that nothing had come out when he wiped his eyes with his thumb and forefinger, Tae Kyu sighed.
He looked up and quietly watched the two walk away. Noticing Sun Woo’s scuffed shoes, he found himself smiling without realizing it.
“You must have been in a hurry?”
The scenery brightened as Tae Kyu continued to gaze at Eun Jae’s receding figure.
She’s getting farther away from me. Smaller.
As soon as they stepped inside, Sun Woo took out a towel from somewhere and began to dry Eun Jae’s hair.
“I can do it.”
“I’ll do it.”
“Okay, let the boyfriend do it.”
Sun Woo’s tense lips curled into a smile, and Eun Jae followed suit.
“Why didn’t you bring an umbrella?”
“I rushed out this morning.”
“You’re bragging.”
As he continued to dry her hair, Sun Woo looked down and finally noticed Eun Jae’s soaked clothes.
“If you’re going to cover her, do it properly. What is this, you’re all wet.”
“It’s not that. I got caught in the rain walking from the academy to the bus stop. It just so happened to pour.”
Deciding it wasn’t the time to dry her hair, Sun Woo grabbed Eun Jae’s hand and headed for the stairs.
“Go change. It’s still before dinner, right?”
“Then I’ll hurry and come down. You’ll be here, right?”
“I have to go back to the hospital.”
Climbing the stairs, Eun Jae looked back at Sun Woo with widened eyes.
“What? You came all the way here just for this?”
Sun Woo, who had been quietly staring at Eun Jae, briskly climbed the stairs. Their footsteps and Eun Jae’s heartbeat pounded in sync. As a large shadow loomed before her, a warm hand touched her cheek.
“That’s why. I was too late.”
The touch and the look in his eyes made it feel like their lips could touch any second, and Eun Jae involuntarily swallowed her dry saliva.
“Let’s talk in the evening. If I’m going to be late, I’ll contact you in advance, go to sleep first.”
“No, I have something to talk about as well.”
“…….”
“I’ll wait.”
Sun Woo had requested to set up a meal for Eun Jae in the annex when he came over to the main house.
Coming down to the parking lot and getting in the car, Sun Woo started the engine. Staring blankly at the digital clock, Sun Woo turned off the engine with a refreshing smile.
We could at least share a meal before going.
While Eun Jae is taking a shower, I’ll take a quick nap. With that thought, Sun Woo reclined in the driver’s seat for a moment.
How much time had passed? Sun Woo woke up to the buzzing sound.
‘How long did I sleep?’
Mrs. Seong and Tae Kyu had come down to the parking lot. Wondering what had happened as they seemed hurried, Sun Woo quickly got out of the car upon noticing Eun Jae listlessly hanging onto Tae Kyu’s back.
“What’s going on?”
“Well, I told her to come down for dinner, but there was no sign of her. When I went up, she had a fever.”
Sun Woo quickly touched Eun Jae’s forehead. Her entire body was hot.
“Ji Eun Jae.”
Eun Jae, who was slumped down, said nothing. Tae Kyu looked displeasedly at Sun Woo.
“Move.”
“Where are you going?”
“I said move.”
Without responding, Sun Woo lifted Eun Jae into his arms and turned not toward the car but the annex. Tae Kyu blocked Sun Woo’s way and yelled.
“What are you doing? Are you insane?”
“Yoon Tae Kyu, open your eyes properly. Who looks at their sister-in-law like that?”
“You like your sister-in-law.”
“If you want to deny it, go ahead. It won’t change the fact.”
“…….”
Ignoring Tae Kyu who seemed not to have any intention of moving, Sun Woo started walking. His calm voice resonated in the parking lot.
“Yoon Tae Kyu, there’s an emergency medical kit on the first floor of the main house. Mix one ampoule each of DW (dextrose solution), Tramadol (anti-inflammatory painkiller), Picam, and Prusol (vitamin) and bring them to the annex.”
Sun Woo’s steps, which had been steady until now, started to quicken.
“There are two doctors here, where are you going?”

“I’ve given birth to two children for you, yet you still think about him.
Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
