Seoul, South Korea
Hospital
Ward 3057,
Jin-joo!!! A loud voice cried out from the room.
Every medical employees who were present at the nearby ward glared at each other with confusion and startlement in their faces.
Who could that be? Was it a patient seeking for an urgent attention? Some of the nurses imagined.
The voice sound so familiar. Closely familiar to them that they could easily assume who it was.
As soon as they got into the ward, they widen their eyes in shock. Behold something that has never happened, nor in the hospital nor on the internet just displayed itself in front of them. Mrs Bong-Cha Lee Kim.
The unconscious but yet still strong woman sat up on the bed in one upright move. Her eyes are wide open like a ghost resurrected from the grave.
Good for them, the founder of the hospital was present. He was busy attending to some other patients in another ward.
Few nurses quickly ran to seek his attention while the others stood in fear. Holding and hugging themselves. So confused if they had just seen a Freddy vs Jason movie come alive or it was just a dream.
While they stood there contemplating whether to move an inch or pray for the ground to open so they can scoop in, the doctor walked in. Mr Lee Kim.
His eyes grew in shock. It was unbelievable. Anyone could tell about that from her tactic of posture.
Yes, she wasn't like an unconscious patient anymore. She sat rooted. Her eyelashes flutter as she rolled her eyeballs to view each and everyone's faces.
The only first person she could easily remember was her husband. "Lee?"
He ran to her aid with eyes soaked in tears. He fell on his knees and hugged her tight like she was going to leave him again.
"This is a miracle!" Someone exclaimed.
"I can't believe this, am I on a horror movie set or haunted house?" Another person gasped.
She touched his face, wiped his tears and smiled at him. Oh, that sweet smile of hers has never faded away. It was one of the most precious thing he loved seeing in her facials.
He held her hands which was holding his face. Her palms were a bit cold and warm at the same time. He kissed her knuckles and sat on the single sofa which was beside the bed.
"Get the kits ready." He instructed four nurses and they nodded and left.
It's been two years and six months since he last saw and talked to his queen. Her heart felt pained to see how compassionate he stare at her.
She tilted her head around the whole place in the room, "Where am I?" She furrowed her brows.
"You're in the ICU, my love."
"Why? How did I get here? Who took me here?" She held her head and winced, "Aitch.."
He panicked and quickly stood up to guide her on the bed. "Relax a bit, I'll take the medications from here."
She held his wrist when he was about to move an inch, "Honey, please call out kids over. I want to see them just as I've seen you."
Her tone sounded like there was trouble or she felt somehow insecure. She just woke up out of the blue a while ago and now the second thing she could ask was their kids?
