chapter 37

                              1Zaini spent some time with the Kid and the family before he could be taken for the next surgery. She was feeling extremely hungry but out of a sense of responsibility she stayed on an empty stomach. As the kid was sent to the operation theatre Zaini was stepping out of the paediatric department. Dr Ji Hoon stopped her."Wait. Zaini. Please follow me", said Ji Hoon and started walking.Zaini was surprised to see him.Ji Hoon entered his consultation room and Zaini followed him inside."Please come and sit", said Ji Hoon politely hinting towards the chair opposite to him."It's okay, Sir. I am fine", said Zaini."No... No please sit. You must be tired by now. The family requested me and the kid was in severe condition that's why I asked the nurse to call you", said Ji Hoon although the reason was something else."I need to keep you away from Kim Jae!" thought Ji Hoon."I understand, sir. I am happy that I was useful. I appreciate your efforts to serve your patients. Being a doctor it is our duty to make our patients healthy and happy", said Zaini smiling. There came a grunting sound from her stomach. She flustered and kept her hand over her stomach.Ji Hoon placed a packet in front of her on his desk."Please sit and have this. I am sorry because of me you had to skip your lunch", said Ji Hoon.Zaini was astonished."He arranged lunch for me?? This guy who is going to be chairman of this hospital, who gives scary vibes, who is too strict. But they eat non-vegetarian food. I am vegetarian. He must have ordered something non-vegetarian. Ahh! What should I do now!? I should politely thank him and deny his help", thought Zaini."A... M... M, I appreciate it. But I am..."Zaini was still trying to speak when Ji Hoon said, "Don't worry. It's all vegetarian."Zaini was left open mouthed. She was standing like a statue looking at Ji Hoon. "Aww... Why all these Korean boys are mind blowingly handsome!!"Ji Hoon got up from his chair. He went back to Zaini and held her from her shoulders and pushed her to sit on the chair. Then he went back to his seat, opened the packet and placed the food in front of Zaini. Zaini tried to stop him from serving the food as she felt awkward to be served by him but he did everything."Thank you so much, Sir", said Zaini with a wide smile. "Dig in. Don't let your hungry stomach wait more", said Ji Hoon.Zaini started eating."Yummm... It is so yummy. From where did you order it?" asked Zaini."It's from my home. I asked my chef", said Ji Hoon."Really?? Sir, I didn't know that you were so cool", said Zaini."What were your thoughts about me then?" "Don't mind me but I thought you were some egoistic, rock head and scary person", said Zaini and grinned. Ji Hoon nodded and said, "Well, that's looks like me only but for others. I am happy my image has changed in your eyes."Zaini found him awkward but she ignored it as she was enjoying the food. "I also wanted to say sorry for my behaviour earlier that day. I should have heard you and waited. I feel bad for someone's loss because of me", said Zaini in a serious tone."She was guilty. The only thing is her punishment increased as the matter went to the Principal. The Principal went to the Chairman. As you are an international intern he had to take strict action against the nurse. Although she was not the actual culprit", said Ji Hoon."I know. I realised it later on. I hope she got placed somewhere else", said Zaini."Yes, she has been placed in another hospital", said Ji Hoon.Zaini looked at Ji Hoon and realised he had a kind heart. He was a mature and selfless person.Zaini finished her food while talking to Ji Hoon. She got up and said, "Thank you so much for this lovely treat. It was too yummy. I hope I will get to enjoy it again someday!" "For that you will have to visit my home", said Ji Hoon.Zaini again found it awkward but she ignored it thinking it must be cultural difference. As she was surprised how people here easily invite others to their homes. Zaini was about to open the door of the room when Ji Hoon said, "One more thing, please stay away from Kim Jae. He is from the entertainment world and has charming aura. You will find yourself attracted to him. These people are flirty and kind of playboy. Don't fall for his tricks. If you say I can ask Dr. Park to change the intern who can stay with him instead of you as I heard he chose you.""Dr. Ji Hoon! I am his die hard fan!! I came here after watching his dramas. I don't know how I got so lucky that he came to our hospital for his research and he chose me only. When I pointed his finger on me to choose me, for one moment I thought I would die of happiness", answered Zaini honestly."It will be difficult to keep to safe from him", thought Ji Hoon with disappointment."Ahh... I didn't know. I thought you are a serious kind of person and must be fed up of this kind of arrangement", said Ji Hoon trying to hide his intentions."Please don't change anything. I am feeling at cloudnine with him. Anyways, no one talks to me in my class. Having some one by my side makes me feel alive otherwise he was roaming like a zombie!" said Zaini and laughed. Ji Hoon could not laugh at her remarks which Zaini felt too. She stopped laughing immediately and left by thanking him once again."When it comes to Kim Jae, all girls are same!!" said Ji Hoon to himself.Zaini came out of the room and ran to her department. Suddenly, she realised Kim Jae was left in the department.
