Chapter 5: Bad Dream?

“Yes, the surgery was successful, it was a minor one. Thankfully there wasn’t any serious damage. But we have to conduct more test on her when she gains consciousness” The doctor replied.

“But she will be fine right?” Dan-Han asked again.

“I’m sure she will. We just have to wait for her to wake up first, and Dan-Han relax. I assure you nothing will happen to her” The doctor said as he gave Dan-Han a pat by the shoulder before walking away. He could tell Dan-Han was worried by this, after all he has been his friend for years. Dan-Han has been a meticulous person and has never experienced something like this before.

“She will be fine, she has to be” He said to himself in a low voice but he was distracted when he heard his phone ring again. He frowned and his forehead creased when he realized it was his mother calling again.

He picked up the call as he massaged the crease on his head.

“Hello”

“Dan-Han where are you? Why do I have to receive a call from Mrs Choi that you didn’t show up for your date? why did you do that?” Her voice came in angry tone as soon as the call connected.

“Which of your questions am I to answer first?” He asked exasperatedly.

“Pick one.”

“I’m at the hospital that’s why” He replied nonchalantly as he sat back on the seat he had been sitting at the waiting area. He somewhat felt tired, maybe it was because he has been anxious since the accident.

“Hospital? Are you okay? Are you hurt? What hospital are you?” She questioned in fear. Scared that something might have happened to her son.

“I am fine. I hit a girl. But the doctor says she will be fine, so I’m okay.” He replied.

“Thank God you are fine. And I hope the girl isn’t seriously wounded? You should be careful when driving okay” She said in relief as they were both fine.

“Yes, I’ll have to call you later okay.”

“Alright take care” she said as she hung up the call.

“Why isn’t she back yet? Did she leave town to go buy groceries?” Song-Hee asked no one in particular as she looked at the time. Eun-sun had left over 2 hours ago and was yet to return.

“Did she leave like that stupid father of her’s who went to work but never came back? That would be better, at least I don’t get to see that face of hers that reminds me of him. Finally she grew some brain” She said spitefully.

“Come on baby she might have found herself a boyfriend, you don’t have to stress yourself worrying about her” Byung-hun said to as he gave her a cup of alcohol, which she gulped down immediately, before lying back in his arms.

BACK AT THE HOSPITAL

“Dad do I look pretty?” She asked her father with a cute smile.

“Of course you are, my pretty Eun-sun” He replied kissing her round soft cheek.

“Dad is my dress pretty too?” She asked again twirling around.

“Very pretty and I know what you want to ask next.” He said as he looked at her raising a brow playfully.

“Before you ask, let me tell you. You are more prettier than your dress” He said as he cupped her cheek in his palm and placed a kiss on her head making her giggle.

“Mom, where is dad? Why is dad not back yet? Dad never stays out late” Eun-Sun asked her mother.

“I don’t know Eun-sun, he said he’ll get some groceries after work, but he has not returned. Let’s wait for him, he’ll be back soon.” Sung-Hee replied her daughter, as she rubbed her back.

“No! I will go look for him, it’s getting too late” Eun-Sun said as she hurried out of the house. She had this gut feeling that something wasn’t right.

“Wait!! Hold on Eun-Sun” Song-Hee yelled running after her. She was surprised to find her staring at a bag of groceries at the door crying sorely.

“Daddy!!” Eun-Sun screamed as she continued crying, while her mother stood completely stupefied.

“Hey are you awake?.. wake up” Dan-Han said softly with a slight frown on his face wondering why she was crying in her sleep. ‘Is she having a bad dream’ he asked himself.

He was lolled on the sofa when he heard her sobbing. He had moved closer only to see her crying in her sleep with beads of sweat on her forehead.

Eun-Sun heard someone faintly calling out to her, she scrunched at the bright light that was sipping through her closed eyelids as she tried opening her eyes groggily. ????????????r????????d. c????m

She blinked her eyes slowly, as she desperately tried to open her eyes to see what’s around her. She could see a hazy figure in front but couldn’t make out who or what it was.

With a bit of effort she saw it was a man standing right in front of her. He didn’t look familiar and she was so sure she hasn’t met him before.

“Who are you?”
