Lookism Ep N/A

Third POV

A few days after the trip, Mira and Zoe went to the hospital where they thought (Y/n) would be in. Zoe had brought (Y/n)'s luggage with her. Both of the girls went to the counter that comes to sight right when you enter the hospital. Behind the counter was a male nurse, typing away in a computer.

"Excuse us, but can you help us?" Zoe was the first to ask.

"Yes, how can I help you?" - the nurse

"We came to visit a friend of ours. Her name is (Y/n) (L/n). We were told that she would be here." - Zoe

"Sure. Just let me check in which room she is staying." The nurse said, typing in the name of the patient. As he was looking over the information, he saw a notice in the patients file. So, the nurse looked at the girls and said.

"I'm sorry but Ms. (L/n) is not taking any visitors right now."

"What do you mean?" - Zoe

"Ms. (L/n) has yet to wake up." - the nurse

"Then can we just go and leave this in her room? It's hers but we don't have contact with her parents." - Mira

"I'm sorry but I can't allow that." - the nurse

"Why not?" - Zoe

"It's says here in her file that she was moved to a private room. The request was made by her parent or guardian. It also says that only a VIP list of people are allowed to visit her." - the nurse

"By any chance would our names be in the list?" - Mira

"Let me see. What are your names?" - the nurse

"Zoe Park and Mira Kim." - Zoe

The nurse browsed through the list, looking for the names that he had received. But they were not in the list.

"I'm sorry, but neither of your names are on the list." - the nurse

"How could that be? Who made the list?" - Zoe

"I'm sorry, but I am not allowed to give that information." - the nurse

"Then can we leave this with you?" - Mira

"No, you can't. The parent or guardian of the patient is the one who can permit that." - the nurse

"Then, what should we do with it?" Zoe said, making the question directly at Mira.

"I guess we'll just stay with it. Until we see her again." - Mira

"Sorry for bothering you and thank you for your help." Zoe said, a sad tone in her voice. And she turned around to leave.

"You're welcome. Would you like to be added to the list?" the nurse said, making the girls stop on their walk towards the exit.

"What list? I thought we were not in it." - Mira

"You are not the first people to come by and ask to see this patient. So, a list was made to give to the patient once they woke up. Hopefully when they wake up, you'll be added to the VIP visit list." - the nurse

"Please. That would be nice." - Zoe

"Don't worry. You all seem to really care about this person. I am happy to see such a good support system." - the nurse

"Thank you. Have a nice day." Mira said, walking away from the counter and leaving the hospital.

Meanwhile, in a private hospital room was (Y/n). She was laying in the hospital bed. The room was quite big. When one enters the room thru the door, the first thing they see up front was (Y/n) in the bed. At the end of the room, on the wall parallel to the door; there was a window. Overlooking the outside world. The bed was put on the left of the room; against the wall, while on the right side of the room there was a couch. Next to the couch was another door, presumably the bathroom door. 

Sitting in the couch was a figure; a man. He had a suit and cane, his hair had a mauve color, and he had a white beard surrounding his lips and all of his chin. The man was staring at the girl that was in the bed. He let out a sigh. 

"Wake up." he said, expecting to receive an answer from the unconscious girl.

"I am not going to wait any longer. So hurry up and wake up."

(Y/n) POV

'Where am I?'

'It's so cold...'

'So dark...'

'What happened?'

'Where is everyone?'

"Wake up."

'Wake up?'

'Who is that?'

'Where did they come from?'

"I am not going to wait any longer."

'Mr. Choi?'

"So hurry up and wake up."

I feel my eyelids move. My head hurts. Opening my eyes slowly, a blinding light comes to my vision. I try to block it with my left arm. It feels heavy.

"So bright." I say, my voice raspy. I hear footsteps move closer to me. Then suddenly something appears in my line of vision.

"Drink." the voice says. 

Lifting my other arm, I take what I could guess is a glass of water. Bringing it close to my lips, I drink it. My eyes finally start adjusting to the light. I look to my right and there he is; Charles Choi, CEO of HNH Group, and my boss.

"Mr. Choi, to what do I owe the visit?" I ask

"You've been slacking in your training." he says, making his way to the couch and sitting down.

"I'm sorry, sir." I say

"I don't want you to fall behind. You still have orders. Don't fail." Mr. Choi says

"Yes, sir. I'll train even harder now." I say to him, looking down at my hands, avoiding his eyes.

"Good." he says, standing up once more. Coming closer to my side. I feel his hand move up to pet my head.

"You gave Crystal a scare. She is very close to you; she sees you as a sister." He says, having a pause.

"So, in theory, you are also like a daughter to me."

What he says almost makes me cry.

"Thank you, sir." I say, holding back my tears.

The door to my room opens and a man with a white coat comes in, I guess the doctor. Right behind him Goo follows and enters the room.

"Ms. (L/n). Good to see you awake. You've been asleep for the last two days." the doctor says.

"What are the issues, doctor?" Mr. Choi says

The doctor takes a chart that was lying next to my bed and on top of a night stand. 

"Well Ms. (L/n). First, you suffered a small tibial fracture in your right leg. You sprained your left wrist. You also have some bruising on your torso, and lastly you've suffered a small head fracture and concussion." said the doctor.

"Your recommendation, doctor?" I say to him

"You'll have to wear the wrap around your wrist for 2 weeks. The cast on your leg will have to stay for a minimum of 6 weeks. Lastly the injury in your head may cause long term pains, but if you avoid any hard blows to the head, I assure you it will heal quickly. For now, you will be under surveillance for the next 2 weeks. Afterwards, you may go home." says the doctor

"Thank you, doctor." Mr. Choi says, shaking hands with the doctor.

After that, the doctor exits the room, leaving Mr. Choi and Goo. As Mr. Choi starts to leave the room as well; Goo stays for a moment to look at me.

"What? Do I really look that bad?" I say to him

"You really gave us a scare there. Don't you dare fail again in a fight." Goo says 

"Aaaww, so you do care about me." I say to him

"Hahaha, as if! I bet I could've handled that person without even using my arms." said Goo

"Well, whatever. I'll see you next time. Whenever that is." I say to him. And with that he leaves.
