Doctor Chingu

Walking lazily out of the hospital, I grabbed my stole from the bag and began to wrap around my face. Covering my head, forehead, ears, mouth, and nose with the stole while walking, I reach the hospital's parking lot. My only body part visible is my eyes and brows.

Usually, the lot if filled with people bring or take out their vehicle but now only vehicles are present and without any people. It's so silent hear that my footsteps can be clearly heard even though I'm wearing flats.

The chilling October nights of Seoul, the silent parking lot with no traces of people and almost 2:30 am, sounds so scary.

Being a doctor, I should not get scared of such kinds of stuff but still, I am scared. It's just that I don't show.

As I was approaching the place where I kept my bike, I saw a person walking in front of me. Even though only his back was visible to me but one can easily say that he is very tall! His broad shoulders, well built back was visible even through that thick jacket.

His hand reached his pants pocket to grab something when something falls from it. How come he didn't realize he dropped something when it made a hearable sound? Questioning to myself, I ran to the place where he dropped it to see a wallet.

"Excuse me!" I called him out but he didn't respond and kept moving.

Am I not audible enough?

Or is it that he cannot understand English?

Obviously you idiot, it's not your country to talk in English other than your own language. Call him in Korean.

Having a conversation with myself, I called him again.

"Excuse me, sillyehamnida. Jamkkanmanyo!" He stopped for a second listening to my voice and again start to walk. His speed increased.

"Allah Miya, what's wrong with him! I being a good person, calling him for his wallet and he just ignored me! How rude!" I murmured.

"Jeogiyo, you drop down your wallet." I said in Korea while running towards him thinking that I just cannot leave an important thing like a wallet in the parking and go away.

Sanding in front of him, I brought my right hand holding the wallet towards him. He gasped looking at me, don't know why.

His eyes met mine. I so much wished to remove his mask which was covering his face. I'm sure he must be handsome.

Those beautiful big eyes were staring me intently which made a little uncomfortable. I bought his wallet in front of his eyes in an attempt to break his intent gaze which was successful.

He took his wallet and bowed thanking me. I too bowed and turned back approaching my Prem, my bike!

•••

She just bowed and left! Just like that? I thought she must be a fangirl when she called me out. By her accent, I understood she is a foreigner but I didn't stop as I didn't want to get snapped by any paparazzi and get involved in any scandal. But when she mentioned about the wallet, my hand immediately reached my pants pocket and realized she was right.

Just when I was about to turn towards her to get my wallet, she suddenly came in from of me and I got scared. What scared me more was that her face was completely covered with a cloth and the only part visible was her eyebrows and her eyes.

Those thick, black, naturally shaped beautiful brows and her eyes...light brown eyeballs, waterline covered with a black liner which was smudged but still looked beautiful. By her eyes, I'm sure she not Korean. Her eyes looked more of a Bangladeshi, Pakistani or Indian.

I don't know what was in her eyes but it attracted me towards her. Her eye moment showed she was telling something but I was too busy in admiring her hypnotic eyes. But sadly it got broken as she brought my wallet in front of my eyes. I didn't know what to say so I just bowed and thanked her. She bowed back and left.

I sat in my car and now watching her retreating figure. That's when I noticed she looked tall. Almost 5'6" or 5'7". She is neither too thin nor healthy. She's just normal with good curves, having a perfect figure. Even by her sweater, her curves were slightly visible. I usually don't keep staring at girls but don't know why she's attracting me.

She reached towards a bike and sat on it. What! She's going to drive a bike! Girls drive a car or even Scotty but she is gonna drive a bike! That's cool.

Sitting on her bike she removed the cloth from her face and her long hair slide from it. Really long hair which was tied in a ponytail.

She had a not too fair but normal fair skin. I couldn't see her face in detail but as much as I could see, she looked beautiful.

She tied her ponytail in a bun and again wrapped that cloth covered her face except for her eyes. That cloth was tied so beautifully! Wearing a helmet she looked dashing. Kicking her bike with full force, she vanished from parking like a storm.

She left and I just kept sitting in my car with her features repeating in my mind. Park Chanyeol, is it a way to think about a random girl?! Kha! Just go to your home. But I wish I could meet her again.

•••

I went to the same hospital I visited a few days before to see my cousin brother who is admitted there. It's the same hospital wherein I met that strange girl in the parking lot.

The past few days that girl didn't leave my mind at all. I don't know who she is? What is her name? What she does and what was she doing in the parking lot at 2:42 in the morning?! Maybe she had come to visit a patient in the hospital just like me. Whatever it is, those hypnotic eyes are disturbing my mind.

Here I am busy in her though and my pabo cousin is busy in describing the beauty of the surgeon attending him.

"Hyung really, doctor noona is not just beautiful but even smart, intelligent and polite." Min, my cousin said in a dreamy way. That's when the door behind me opened and Min's face brighten up.

"Annyong Doctor" Min said happily. Probably she must be the same doctor he was talking about. I took my mobile out and got busy with it as I don't want to get noticed by anyone.

"Hello, Min! How are you doing? Let me check you." Came the voice of the doctor. This voice is a little familiar. I have heard this voice somewhere? I thought while looking at the doctor's back. Soon my question got an answer when the doctor turned to leave. She is the one. That strange girl.

"Annyonghasaeyo!" I said hurriedly when she was about to open the doorknob. She turned around facing me. She looked confused.

"You know, we met a few days before in the parking lot?" I said in order to clear her confusion.

Seems like realization clicked her and she smiled beautifully and said, "Oh! Mr. Rude wallet?!"
