When it was time to leave, Professor Yang texted Sol A
“When you come, just open the door yourself, the password is 1094”

Professor Yang had just turned off his phone when suddenly there was a knock on the door.
“Gyosunim!!!”
“Nuguseyo?”
“It’s me”

He walked to the door and opened it, then suddenly said
“Why are you back so soon?”

Just as he finished speaking, he looked up and saw that it was not Sol A but Professor Park.
“Why are you here?”
“I heard from the principal that you had an accident, gwaenchanaseyo?”
“Umm gwaenchanayo”
“Can I come in?”
“Come in”

Professor Park entered his house and looked around.
“Your house is quite empty”
“Umm”
“Where are you hurt? Is it serious?”
“My stomach is injured, the wound is quite deep”

After hearing that, Professor Park looked at his stomach.
“Your stomach is bleeding, gyosunim”
“Probably because I moved too much, that’s why it’s bleeding”
“Do you need me to change the bandage for you?”
“Aniyo, I’ll do it myself later”
“With your condition, how can you change it yourself? Where’s the bandage, let me do it for you”

Professor Yang couldn’t stop her so he let her do it.
“Over there”

Professor Park took the medicine box and slowly walked toward him. The two sat close to each other, the atmosphere gradually becoming awkward. Suddenly, Professor Yang shouted.
“Aaaaaa”
“Does it hurt?”
“Nae”

Suddenly there was the sound of the password being pressed and the door opened. She walked in, closing the door behind her.
“I’m back”

She turned around and saw Professor Park with her hand on Professor Yang’s stomach. The three of them looked at each other in silence. Sol A didn’t know what to do, so she walked out. Professor Yang stood up to chase after her.
“Your wound is bleeding, where are you going?”
“I have something I must do”
“Antue!!”

Ignoring his bleeding wound, Professor Yang put on his coat and ran after Sol A.
“Sol A!”

He chased after her, calling her name, but she didn’t look back. After a while, when they reached the main road, Professor Yang collapsed.
“Sol…”

Sol A turned around and saw people gathering, so she ran over, pushing through the crowd. Lying on the ground was no one else but Professor Yang.
“Gyosunim!!!!!!!”
“Gyosunim!!! What’s wrong, gyosunim!”
“Someone please call an ambulance!”

Sol A was so worried about him that she cried right there. The wound had opened and was bleeding heavily.

Five minutes later

The ambulance arrived. Sol A followed him to the hospital.
“How is the patient’s condition?”
“He has lost too much blood, his blood pressure is dropping very fast, urgent surgery is needed”
“What is his blood type?”
“O-RH-”
“Does the patient have any family?”
“Aniyo”
“This is a rare blood type, where can we find it now?”
“Take my blood, I’m O-RH- too”
“Take both the patient and this young lady into the operating room immediately”

Sol A donated blood for Professor Yang, so she was taken into the operating room with him.

The lights turned on, the sound of the heart monitor mixed with the doctors’ voices. Tears rolled down Sol A’s face. The doctors began anesthesia for both of them and started surgery.

The surgery was completed, but it was not very successful. Sol A and Professor Yang were transferred to a normal ward.

One day later

Sol A woke up and walked to his bed.
“Why hasn’t he woken up yet?”

Because she had donated a lot of blood, she was very weak. Suddenly, the doctor came.
“Doctor, why hasn’t he woken up yet?”
“He may never wake up again. He lost a lot of blood, and during the surgery, his heart stopped twice. Whether he wakes up depends on his willpower. If he tries, he can make it, but the chance is only 10%. You should prepare yourself.”

After hearing that, Sol A couldn’t stand anymore, tears began to fall. Her feelings were impossible to describe. If something happened to him, she would regret it her whole life. She could do nothing but sit there, hold his hand, and pray.

Their love hadn’t even started, yet it seemed it would end here. They had ignored the age difference, ignored society’s prejudice, just to be together. But maybe he would never wake up again.

Sol A went to take care of him every day, but there was no progress.
“If you don’t wake up, I’ll really be angry. I want to hear your voice, I want you to look at me, I want you to hold my hand, I want to walk with you. Please, wake up, jaebal”

Every night she came to the hospital to tell him about her day. Even though he didn’t wake up, Sol A believed that he could still hear her and feel her love.

To be continued.
