Name:When I Loved You Author:Ryu Hyang
Dr. Ji walked toward the vending machine, and found a long line in front of it. “Maybe I should just go outside…”

He quickly left the waiting room and went to the vending machine outside it. Luckily, there was no one there. He poured out several cups of coffee and put them on the tray. As he added more cups to the tray, someone said to him, “Are you Dr. Ji Sunghoo?”

Dr. Ji turned around. “Yes, I am him.”

When he saw the man the voice belonged to, he flinched a little for seemingly no reason. The man’s gaze was cold, and it almost made his heart drop.The man looked cold but pure, and had this energy…

Dr. Ji automatically straightened his spine. “Do you know me?”

The man pointed at the ID hanging from Dr. Ji’s neck before saying, “I have a favor to ask you. I’m related to Yoon Yiyoung. Can you take this to her? I’ll carry it to the front of the ER for you.”

The ER didn’t allow any outsiders. Even for the patients, only one guardian could enter. And it was quite hard to ask the staff inside the ER to act as messengers, so it seemed like these sort of things happened frequently.

“Oh, okay. Yes. I can do that.”

“Thank you,” the man said.

The man’s voice seemed capable of soothing people with temperament issues, was what Dr. Ji thought. And then, as he waited for the coffee, he laughed at himself for thinking about it so deeply.

He would not have been able to carry the coffee cups as well as the man’s stuff all at once, but since the man was helping him carry it back to the waiting room, it wasn’t a problem. Once the doors to the ER opened, the man stepped away.

The moment the door opened, Muyeol could see Yiyoung inside. She was sitting on a high chair, watching a screen. He felt delighted inside, being able to watch Yiyoung look so attractive while doing what she loved. He couldn’t take his eyes off her.

“Whom should I say this is from?” Dr. Ji asked.

“I’m her husband,” Muyeol said, his eyes still on her.

“Oh, okay.” Dr. Ji turned around, but could only take a couple of steps before his body suddenly shook as if struck by lightning.

‘Wait. Yiyoung’s husband? Dr. Yoon’s husband? Then… that man is the president, Cha Muyeol!’ Dr. Ji turned back around, but the doors were already closed.

As Muyeol passed through the revolving door, his phone rang.

“Honey,” Yiyoung greeted over the phone.

His face lit up with a smile when he heard the mischievous tone in her lovely voice. He said, “I just wanted to give you some chocolates.”

“Thank you! I really, really, really wanted to eat them. I actually wished that someone would rain down chocolates on me. You came at the right time.”

Muyeol laughed loudly at that.

“I was trying to be cute,” Yiyoung said indignantly, “and you’re laughing?”

“I love you. Have a good day. I’ll come pick you up at night,” said Muyeol.

“It’s a problem that I still like you so much.”

“I love you a lot, too.”

“That’s not enough! I’ll only realize it if you express your feelings.”

“Then, I’ll show you how much I love you when you come home.”

“Really? Then I look forward to it.”

“Okay. Whatever you’re expecting, it’ll be much better than that, so be prepared.”

“Oh, wow! You’re my husband indeed. You’re so cool.”

“I’ll see you later.”

“Okay.”

After the phone call ended, Muyeol quickly went on his way. He’d spent a lot of time waiting to find the right time to hand over the chocolates. He needed to help Jiyoon wrap the gifts, give dinner and snacks to the kids, and also had to come back to the hospital to pick up Yiyoung.
