"Are you sure you want to do this?" Doctor Chan asked Yoonki, a friend and one of the patients at his hospital who worked.
"Eo," Yoonki confirmed Doctor Chan's question.
"But why?" asked Doctor Chan again.
Yoonki didn't answer immediately and instead looked at Chanbin now. He sighed in annoyance and took a deep breath.
"You can do it, can't you? If you can, say yes and don't ask why," said Yoonki, who doesn't want to talk much and explain to Doctor Chan.
Doctor Chan finally took a deep breath and nodded resignedly to agree with Yoonki.
"You're weird, Yoon," Doctor Chan mumbled randomly.
After coming home from the hospital, Yoonki strolled toward his room. Today he went home to his parents and wanted to be in his current condition. His mother cared for him and got more attention from his parents.
Yoonki opened the door to his room slowly, but Yoonki stopped because someone cleared his throat behind him. Yoonki turned his body and reflexively bowed his body in greeting.
"Hyung," Yoongi said briefly.
"You, home? What's wrong? You, sick, Yoon?" asked Seo Jin Yoonki, who could see Yoonki.
Yoongi smiled slightly and shook his head slowly.
"Are you asking or interrogating me, Hyung?" said Yoongi then.
Seo Jin chuckled at his silliness. Seo Jin then approached Yoonki and patted his younger brother's shoulder lightly.
"I'm worried about you, Yoon. Your face looks ashen. Are you sick? That's why you came home?" Seo Jin asked again.
Yoongi smiled again and shook his head slowly.
"Maybe it's because I'm tired, Hyung. I need to rest and calm down," Yoonki gave an excuse.
Seo Jin nodded his head in understanding, Seo Jin's face changed, and his eyes sparkled brightly.
"We eat together, okay? Eomma just cooked our favorite food. It seems he already has a feeling you will come home tonight," said Seo Jin.
Yoonki smiled again and nodded in response to Seo Jin's invitation.
The two of them were now sitting at the dining table. The mother has indeed cooked many types of food. Yoonki looks smiling, looking at all the food on the dining table.
"Eat a lot, Yoon! You rarely come home," said Mr. Oh, the father of Seo Jin and Yoonki.
"It's true what your father said, and you haven't been home for a long time. Eat! This is the green mussel that just arrived when Mom bought it," said Mrs. Oh, who then brought the green scallop she had cooked to Yoonki.
Yoonki looked at his mother, then looked at the mother's cooking. Yoonki smiled faintly, then nodded his head. Without hesitation, Yoonki then enjoyed dinner with his family.
***
"Why are you eating something you shouldn't eat, Yoon? If you keep this up, you'll die silly!" Taeoh scolds one of the allergy doctors who always treats Yoonki when his allergies recur.
Yoonki smiled faintly, although after smiling, he still grimaced now and then because he felt his stomach hurt and his chest tight.
"My mother cooked green mussels, Tae. How could I not eat that food," said Yoonki in response.
"What? Green scallop? Are you crazy or what? Why are you eating it?" Taeoh asked again, who then hit Yoonki quite hard.
"Yes! It hurts," said Yoonki, grumbling.
"Doesn't your family know that you are allergic to seafood? But how come? You are in her son too." Taeoh asked again, getting confused at Yoonki's.
Yoonki smiled lopsidedly, then breathed.
"Maybe, they forgot," said Yoonki casually.
Taeoh couldn't believe the answer from Yoonki, even though casual. Still, a disappointed tone came from Yoonki this time. Taeoh was silent and looked at Yoonki with pity. Yoonki himself then looked at Taeoh and then chuckled, annoyed.
"Do you want to stay silent like that, or do you want to treat me?" asked Yoonki again.
Taeoh shook his head, returning himself to focus. Taeoh then took the injection he had prepared for Yoonki.
"I'm injecting you now, Yoon," said Taeoh after being able to awaken himself to treat Yoonki immediately.
In another room and the same hospital.health check-up test results for Yoonki the last time. Doctor Chan then took a deep breath and put down Yoonki.
"Hopefully, your path is indeed the right one, Yoon. At least maybe this is one of the things that can make you happy," Chan said in a monologue and held his forehead, which suddenly hurt from thinking about the fate of the patient and his best friend.

Sena opened the door to her apartment slowly, and not long after that, a big smile appeared on her lips.
"Yoon," Sena called, who then hugged her lover tightly.
"How are you? Sorry I haven't seen you in a few days. I'm busy," Yoonki said while hugging Sena warmly.
Sena shook her head slowly, a sign that it was okay.
"Are you not busy today?" Sena asked, who then let go of his arms on Yoonki.
Yoonki smiled and then smoothed Sena's mane slowly.
"It's not busy. That's why I'm here. You, have you had dinner? Or, should we go out for dinner?" asked Yoongi then.
"No need, I've already cooked dinner. Come on in!" asked Sena, who then brought Yoonki into his apartment.
They have been together since Sena returned from America. For approximately three years, they had a serious relationship. Tonight Yoonki intends to ask Sena to marry. Yoonki has even prepared a ring to propose to Sena. Yoonki briefly opened the gold ring box he was holding. Yoonki smiled happily and then closed the ring box again. Yoonki put the ring box back into his pants pocket.
Not long after Sena returned with the food he had cooked, he put all the food on the dining table.
"Let us eat!" asked Sena, who sat on one of the dining table chairs in front of Yoonki.
"Eo." Yoonki agreed and then started to pick up chopsticks and enjoy his dinner with Sena.
After they finished half of the food, Sena let out a voice and looked at Yoonki.
"Ah, what a coincidence that you're here, Yoon. There's something I want to talk about," said Sena, opening the conversation.
"Really? What is it, Sena?" asked Yoonki, who then put a mouthful of rice with side dishes into his mouth.
Sena was silent momentarily and looked at Yoonki. The girl then sipped water on the right side of her hand. Yoonki himself waited patiently while still busy chewing his food.
"Em, if I say this, will you be angry?" asked slowly.
"Angry? For what, Sena? What did you do to make me angry? Just say it! I will listen carefully and will not be angry at all," said Yoonki, who felt funny by Sena's question.
Sena smiled faintly and nodded her head in agreement with Yoonki. Sena then breathed and looked at Yoonki closely and deeply.
"I got a scholarship to Russia for two years, Yoon. I have agreed, and next week I'm leaving," said Sena giving good and bad news for Yoonki.
"Scholarship to Russia? 2 years?" asked Yoonki, trying to make sure he heard himself and didn't hear wrong.
"Eo, Russia. You, of course, remember I want to study Masters's there, don't you? This is my chance, Yoon. You don't mind. Only two years, that's a short time," Sena said, persuading Yoonki to agree to his departure to Russia.
"Only two years?" Yoonki quietly asked again as if he was asking himself.
Enthusiasm and happiness Yoonki suddenly just disappeared. Yoonki put down his spoon and looked at Sena now. Yoonki needed clarification. What answer should he give to Sena?
"2 years is short, Sena. But..."

"Lim Airin," a nurse called from the laboratory door.
Two women who were sitting then suddenly stood up. The two then looked at each other now.
"Ah, did I do something wrong? Didn't the nurse call Kim Chairin?" asked one of the women with shoulder-length hair who looked so elegant.
"Ah, sorry, Sister just called Lim Airin's name. It seems you heard wrong, Eonni," said the other woman.
"Ah, that's how it seems, okay. Sorry, I heard wrong," said the shoulder-length-haired girl apologetically.
"It's okay, Eonni," replied the other girl.
The girl, Lim Airin, entered the laboratory to carry out the tests recommended by the Obgyn Doctor yesterday.
Once inside the laboratory, Airin was a little confused. She was going to do a test. Why did the Doctor in the lab look like he was about to do something big?
"Lie down relaxed, Airin_ssi! We will carry out the procedure quickly and precisely," said the nurse who called Airin earlier.
"Procedure? What?" asked Airin, confused.
The nurse smiled and then laid Airin down slowly.
"This is a procedure that you have agreed to, and you must do it. I promise it won't take long and won't hurt," said the nurse gently.
Airin obediently then nodded her head in agreement with the nurse's words. Airin lay down while the nurse put a blanket on Airin's body. Because suddenly feeling tense, Airin closed her eyes because she was also a little scared now.
In another room, Yoonki is waiting with a slightly worried face. Doctor Chan then came and sat in front of Yoonki's cup of coffee which was still steaming hot Yoonki.
"You have a taut face," he said later.
Yoonki looked up and smiled at Doctor Chan.
"Eo, I'm a little tense. How was my checkup today, Chan?" asked Yoonki to the point.
Doctor Chan smiled faintly, then handed Yoonki.
"Luckily, you immediately joined chemotherapy. We can suppress the growth of cancer cells while reducing the tumor size. But..." Doctor Chan stopped his words.
Yoonki, who was reading the results of his checkup, stopped and looked at Chanbin now. Yoonki put the paper he was holding on the table and smiled faintly.
"All the bad possibilities you told me happened?" asked Yoongi.
"Eo," Chanbin briefly looked very sorry.
Yoonki himself just smiled again. His face looked normal. He may have already prepared himself for this.
"Luckily, I've saved my precious seed," Yoonki said as if talking to himself.
"Em, you're right this time. So, after you marry Sena, we can inseminate Sena," said Doctor Chan in response to Yoonki.
Yoonki was silent and did not respond to Chanbin's words. He looked at his friend and then took a deep breath.
"Sena and I have broken up," Yoonki squeaked quietly.
"Ha?" Chanbin shrieked in surprise.
***
Airin just entered her room. Airin then lay down on the bed and took a deep breath.
"Why do I get tired so easily lately?" Airin mumbled and felt something was wrong with her body for the past few days.
Airin then sat and remembered why her body could be like this.
"This all happened after I had a lab test, and until now, the hospital has not contacted me with my lab. Is there something serious about my uterus that they do so many procedures like that?" Airin muttered again in monologue.
Airin then inched down from her bed and walked to the table in the corner of her room. Airin opened her bag and took her cell phone. Airin opened her chat application and saw that there were indeed no incoming messages on her cellphone from the hospital.
"Ah, let me go there tomorrow," said Airin, making her own decision.
"Airin! Get out of your room!" someone shouted from outside the room until it succeeded in making Airin surprised and holding her chest now.
"Yes, I'm out, Aunt," said Airin, who hurriedly put down her cell phone and quickly walked out of the room.
Arriving outside the room, Airin was immediately greeted with a jug of water that now wet her face.
"It's so nice at this hour, and you're in the room. Cook! It's time for dinner soon," said a middle-aged woman who looked similar to Airin.
"Sorry, Aunt, I just got home. I just put my things in the room," said Airin, wiping her wet face now.
"Many reasons! Hurry up and cook now!" the woman Airin called Aunt ordered, half dragging Airin's hand towards the kitchen of their house now.
Someone tapped Chanbin's workspace, and he was with Taeoh discussing drugs that Yoonki takes. They both looked towards the door.
"Enter!" Chanbin said briefly.
Not long after, a female Obstetrician named Kang Sujin came in with a panicked face and rushed over to Chanbin and Taeoh. Seeing Doctor Sujin's panicked look, Chanbin stood up reflexively.
"What is it, Doctor Sujin?" Chanbin asked then.
"We're in big trouble, Doctor Chan."
Sujin's words made Taeoh stand up in surprise. The two male doctors looked at Sujin with wide eyes.
"What is the problem?" Chanbin and Taeoh asked almost at the same time.
"I entered the wrong insemination," said Sujin, lowering her voice.
"Ha? How wrong? And who should it be?" asked Chanbin, very surprised now.
"Read this!" said Sujin handing someone's medical record.
Chanbin's eyes widened while Taeoh, who couldn't wait for the medical record to finish, Chanbin read. Taeoh then snatched the medical history from Chanbin's hands after reading the name of the inseminator and the recipient of the insemination itself. Taeoh widened his eyes, too, and looked at Sujin now.
"Ya! Kang Sujin, what have you done? You, don't forget this isn't Yoonki's?" Taeoh said in an annoyed tone.
"That's precisely why I said we were in big trouble," said Sujin, who looked frantic.
***
Airin came to the hospital and is now waiting for her name to be called. Airin felt that her body was getting worse and worse. Even since waking up this morning, Airin's head has hurt and not subsided.
Yoonki just arrived and dashed past Airin, who was sitting. Airin's chest beat twice as fast after Yoonki passed for some reason. Airin looked at Yoonki, who ran and entered Doctor Sujin's practice room.
"Tsk, why don't you join the queue? Surely, he's rich," Airin grumbled, annoyed that Yoonki suddenly entered Doctor Sujin's practice room. Meanwhile, he had to wait in line, and his name was called 2 hours ago.
"Lim Airin."
Airin turned her gaze towards the nurse who was calling her now. Airin's brow furrowed in confusion, and someone had just entered Doctor Sujin's room. Then why was he also summoned now?
"Please come in, Airin_ssi," repeated the nurse.
Airin nodded in agreement and then walked toward Doctor Sujin's practice room. Airin was silent in the doorway when she was already in Doctor Sujin's room. It wasn't only Doctor Sujin and the man who had run in; it turned out that two more men were wearing Doctor coats as well.
"Are my lab results not good? How many doctors are here? What's this?" Airin thought in a monologue in her heart.
"Airin_ssi, come in! You must be surprised that there are many men here," said Doctor Sujin, who could read Airin's confused and strange face.
Airin smiled awkwardly, then entered. She bowed his head to greet Doctor Sujin and the other three men.
"Sit down, Airin_ssi! We have to explain something," repeated Doctor Sujin.
Airin nodded obediently. Airin then sat on the chair next to Sujin and faced each other with Yoonki. All this time, the pale-skinned man, whose face looked pale, kept staring at Airin's face closely.
Sujin herself then looked at Chanbin and Taeoh in turn. Finally, Sujin looked at Yoonki, who seemed so cold at Airin. Sujin then took a deep breath and grabbed Airin's hand slowly. Airin furrowed her brows in confusion and looked at Sujin now. Her mind is getting all over the place with Airin's attitude now.
"Airin_ssi," said Sujin, opening the conversation.
"Why, Doc? Is there a problem with my lab? What, I have a dangerous disease in my womb?" Airin said repeatedly because she couldn't hold her curiosity anymore.
Sujin was silent and looked at Yoonki, who seemed to react to Airin's question. Sujin's head shook slowly towards Airin then.
"That's not it," continued Airin again.
"Then what is it, Doc?" asked Airin, more curious.
"I made a mistake. Instead of doing a test on your uterus, I inseminated you, Airin_ssi. The biggest problem again is the last cell belonging to Yoonki, my best friend," said Doctor Sujin, explaining and pointing to Yoonki sitting in front of Airin.
Airin's eyes widened in disbelief at what she heard. She then looked at Yoonki, who was looking at him coldly. Airin blinked her eyes, not knowing what to do now.
"What, am I dreaming?" Airin asked as if she was asking herself.
***
Airin just entered the house with limp steps, and her face also looks very confused. Airin then closed the door to her aunt's house slowly. She Just took off his shoes and put them on the shelf. Someone violently pulled Airin's hand, then pushed Airin roughly to the ground. Airin grimaced as her hands and waist hurt now.
"This hour You? Where have you been?" snapped the man, who looked very angry now.
Airin looked up and looked at the man with a scared face.
"Sorry, Uncle, I just got home from the hospital. I just got home from work and went straight to the hospital because I didn't feel well," Airin said, stammering.
"Hospital? How can you justify being sick now? Oh, or do you want to be made sick? Fine if that's what you want."
After speaking like that, Airin's uncle's man dragged Airin's hair roughly. Airin herself screamed in pain, and her scalp felt very hot now. Her uncle carried Airin to the bathroom after entering Airin into the toilet. His uncle then locked the bathroom from the outside.
"Uncle, open the door! I'm unwell. Please don't lock me up here. I'm sorry." Airin screamed, asking her uncle to open the door. But his uncle seemed to have no heart. He just walked into his room and left Airin, who kept screaming.
Elsewhere, Yoonki just got home from work. His job as CEO of his father's company makes Yoonki unable to relax even for a moment. Yoonki plopped down on the sofa and massaged his head slowly. It didn't just work that made him tired. The mistake that Doctor Sujin made also made Yoonki quite depressed.
Yoonki groaned in annoyance, then kicked the table hard. His leg throbbed in pain after a glass was stuck in his calf.
"Tsk," Yoonki chuckled, then pulled out the broken glass just like that.
Fresh blood was seen coming out of Yoonki. Even so, Yoonki's face was so flat, as if he didn't feel pain. Yoonki then left the living room and walked to his room now.
***
"This insemination should have been given to Kim Chairin. She became the surrogate mother of a wealthy man. However, the nurse on duty that day mistook Airin's person as Chairin because her name was almost the same. Fatal again. Instead of taking a tube containing a rich person's cell, That's it. The nurse on duty brought Yoonki, which only left one."
Doctor Sujin's words kept Airin remembering. Airin, sitting on the edge of the bed with a pale face and shivering body, sighed heavily. Airin then went to the bathroom in her room to change the clothes she was wearing now. Airin has to prepare breakfast, even though it's clear that Airin isn't doing well right now. If Airin doesn't carry out her duties, I don't know what else her Uncle and Aunt will do to her later.
After cleaning herself and changing her clothes, Airin returned to the room and went straight to the kitchen. With great difficulty, Airin made breakfast for her Uncle and Aunt. After hearing the alarm clock on the wall in the living room go off. Airin rushed to the room and prepared to go to the office.
"I'll be late if I don't hurry to the office," said Airin in a monologue, who then sped out of the house after taking her bag and cell phone from her room.
In the office, Airin was nervous, not only because her work had suddenly piled up. Airin felt that her body could not be compromised today. Airin repeatedly held her stomach, which felt a little stiff, not to mention the uncomfortable feeling in the pit of her heart was also worsening.
"Is it because I don't have breakfast anymore?" Airin asked herself.
Soon after, someone approached Airin and placed an orange folder on Airin's desk. The girl, who continued to feel her stomach cramping, looked at the person who put down the folder.
"Airin_ssi, can you help me? I shouldn't have done this. It's just that I'm really in a hurry. This is a file to sign for new investors in our company. Now they are waiting in Mr. Kim's room. Can you replace me first? I have to go with Mr. Jung to a meeting outside," said Hyejin, Airin's office friend.
"Ah? Why me? Why not just ask Juan or Jimmy?" asked Airin, who was a little reluctant to go to Mr. Kim's room because she remembered very well how her boss was chasing her.
"Please! Help me this once, Airin_ssi. Juan and Jimmy are doing market research outside, so I can only rely on you now," explained Hyejin, giving reasons that Airin couldn't refuse anymore.
Airin took a deep breath, but in the end, her head nodded, approving Hyejin's request for help. After explaining a little about the contents of the files in the folder to Airin, Hyejin left her division room, where only Airin was gone now.
"This, all the plans, and soon the person in charge of the marketing division will bring the file that we have to sign, CEO Yoon," explained Mr. Kim, who was seen showing several plans for cooperation between his company and Yoonki's company.
"Ah, okay, I understand," said Yoonki, who could read at a glance that their cooperation plan was quite exciting and mutually beneficial.
"Of course, you can easily understand it, CEO Yoon. I am so flattered that you came here yourself, not represented by your secretary as usual," said Mr. Kim, nodding his head respectfully at Yoonki.
Yoonki smiled faintly, then slowly shook his head, signifying it was okay.
"I happened to be around here. My secretary was on leave. So, I pushed our meeting schedule forward. Of course, this doesn't make it difficult for you, right, Mr. Kim?" asked Yoonki, who felt he violated the rules.
"Oh, it's okay we..."
Knock...knock...knock
Knocking on the door made Mr. Kim stop his words. Both of them then looked at the door now.
"That must be the marketing staff," said Mr. Kim.
Yoonki just nodded his head, confirming Mr. Kim's words.
"Enter!" said Mr. Kim, who, not long after Airin, entered Mr. Kim's room. Yoonki, who was drinking the coffee served to him, didn't look at the door anymore.
"Oh, you brought the file, Airin_ssi," said Mr. Kim.
Hearing the name of a person Yoonki knows makes Yoonki reflexively turn and look at Airin now. They were both looking at each other with shocked faces now. However, Airin did her best to cover it from Mr. Kim. Airin cleared her throat and walked over to the sofa where Mr. Kim and Yoonki sat.
"This is a file that must be signed, Mr. Kim. There is also a letter of agreement with some penalty points if one of us violates the contract. Intentionally or unintentionally," said Airin, who explained a little, copying the words Hyejin had earlier.
"Oh, okay," said Mr. Kim, who received the orange folder from Airin.
Without hesitation, Mr. Kim immediately signed the file, then Mr. Kim handed it over to Yoonki, who was still watching Airin, who stood and bowed her head.
"Please sign it, CEO Yoon," said Mr. Kim, who made Yoonki jump slightly.
Yoonki smiled awkwardly, then signed the file without rereading it. Airin glanced at Yoonki, and unconsciously the girl took a deep breath. After the two high-ranking company officials signed the file. Airin retook the file and bowed her body.
"Excuse me, I will copy this work contract first," said Airin.
"Em, go, Airin_ssi!" said Mr. Kim.
Airin also left Pak Kim's room, arriving at the door instead of going out. The girl slumped limply on the floor, unconscious. Seeing that, Yoonki reflexively screamed Airin's name and ran to Airin. He didn't realize he was being looked at with a questioning face by Mr. Kim.
