The sound of high heels echoed in the station. The gazes of the nurses there inexplicably shifted towards Hyeji, who felt a change in the atmosphere.
“Miss Ju, you cut your hair.”
Her long hair, which she had maintained for a long time, was now short, reaching below her ears. Usually, when women cut their hair short, it often indicated a significant change in their feelings.
“Yes, I thought I’d have a change.”
There were no words spoken aloud, but there were things they understood just by exchanging glances. The person who had made her emotions change so much was Yoon Sunwoo.
In recent times, no one was unaware that their relationship was not as it used to be. While there had been suspicions about their relationship, there were times when they believed that their long-standing relationship might really be just friendship.
After all, the concept of friendship between a man and a woman was fundamentally flawed. Their relationship, which had remained unchanged for a long time, might indeed have been just friendship.
With Yoon Sunwoo’s marriage news, their relationship had frozen coldly.
It had been a long time since they realized that the remaining feelings were on Hyeji’s side. It was strange that others didn’t know when she was making it so obvious.
“Miss Ju, short hair suits you very well. They say real beauties are those who truly look beautiful with short hair.”

“Thank you.”
Even with a compliment she liked, her expression was dark. She only managed to lift the corners of her mouth slightly in response. As they passed the station, even the faint smile that had remained disappeared completely.
Upon reaching the examination room, she dropped the tablet she had been holding as if throwing it onto the desk.
In her sight was Sunwoo’s wedding invitation. It was neither properly kept nor completely abandoned.
Her feelings were also like that. It was ambiguous to say she had given up, and it was unclear whether she hadn’t.
If she couldn’t have it, it would be enough to stay by his side like that. That’s what she thought would be enough, but was it not? Did she think it would never happen? Did she believe he would always be alone?
The fact that Sunwoo was getting married still didn’t feel real. Yes, that might be the most accurate answer in the current situation.
“Sigh…”
Hyeji’s deep sigh scattered into the air. Sitting in the examination room chair, she slowly swept her hair back. Then, a memory suddenly came to mind, causing her forehead to wrinkle involuntarily.
A few weeks ago, during a consultation with a patient named Jung Miran, she overheard a conversation with that woman. So Hyeji already knew that the woman would come to the hospital during lunchtime. The conversation she accidentally heard from Sunwoo later was about a similar matter.

They had arranged to meet during lunchtime.
Hyeji wanted to create a situation that the woman would misunderstand, whether she came first or Sunwoo did. She deliberately waited for them in front of Miran’s hospital room early.
Sure enough, when Sunwoo, walking towards the hospital room from the cloud bridge, came into view, Hyeji touched the cherry blossom petals she had picked up earlier in her pocket.
While talking with Sunwoo, she noticed a woman walking towards the hospital room, and Hyeji seized the opportunity.
Looking at Eunjae as if on cue, she extended the hand holding the cherry blossom petals towards Sunwoo’s head.
“What are you doing?”
“What’s this?”
Pretending to pluck cherry blossom petals from Sunwoo’s head, which hadn’t been attached in the first place, she saw the woman hiding behind the wall. Watching that scene made her laugh.
“Not a normal marriage, huh?”
Deciding to get married so suddenly without even a proper reason, it must be because of the hospital.
Considering the circumstances, their financial situation didn’t seem great either. How could such a woman meet Sunwoo?

“That tacky eco-bag is always carried around.”
Hyeji, who was dissatisfied with everything about the woman, took out a golden envelope from her pocket, tongue clicking disapprovingly.

If it were another time, it would have been a place she would have accompanied Sunwoo. She couldn’t have imagined another woman standing next to Sunwoo, who had been by his side for almost ten years.
As the image of a woman standing side by side with Sunwoo came to mind, Hyeji’s face twisted mercilessly.
“Right. Yoon Sunwoo is getting married? I thought you were marrying the hospital.”
“Is the bride coming too? I’m curious. What kind of woman caught Yoon Sunwoo’s eye.”
“Do you know what kind of woman she is, Hyeji?”
“By the way, you must feel really upset. Yoon Sunwoo and you were like the Ran and Sung twins. Why did you take on the role of an older brother just because you were born one minute earlier? It must feel weird to marry such an older brother.”
A few weeks ago, among friends who met after a long time, the main topic was undoubtedly Sunwoo’s marriage.
