Pay With Your Heart

After eating Eun-sun had drifted in to the realm of dreams. That was the only place she seemed happy, well not all the time, as she sometimes dreamt about the day her father left home. But those dreams where she had it all, family, job and happiness, where the best times of her day. Eun-Sun woke up from her sleep when she heard her phone ringing. She hissed when she saw it was Hei-Ran calling.

"You'd better have a good reason for waking me up Hei-Ran" She said groggily, she was still feeling sleepy, if possible she'd love to go back to her dream. She was having a good dream before Hei-Ran's call woke her up. ​​

"Did I wake you up?" Hei-Ran asked.

"Not only did you wake me, you interrupted a good dream" She hissed again.

"Sorry madam, I guess you had your full before sleeping" She teased her. What a gourmet!.

"Hei-Ran come over I promise not to beat you to death" She said as she yawned while Hei-Ran laugh.

"Where are you?, I'm at the lobby. What's the ward number?" Hei-Ran asked still laughing.

"Really? So you finally decided to come" she said rolling her eyes.

"Yea, so tell me where you are, cause I've been to the public ward but I couldn't find you. So which ward are you?"

"I'm in this VIP room, that is terribly huge and awfully big and well furnished. It has a TV, bathroom, big sofa and a king sized bed. It looks like an hotel suite, I believe you will mistake it for one. I wonder why someone would build an hospital room to be this luxurious. I mean there are so many people dying in the world due to starvation and someone made this " She rambled on with a disgusted look on her face. She had wanted to complain about it when she first woke up, but there was no one to talk to. Not that she didn't like luxury, but she had just grown to not appreciate it like others did. A few years ago she'd explore the entirety of this room, and be amazed by it, but now it was a total turn off.

"Eun-sun!" Hei-Ran yelled gaining Eun-sun's attention who has been rambling non stop in a annoyed tone. Was she being forced to stay there?

"Yes little Ran-Ran, why are you yelling my name?" she yelled back. She raised her hand to her head, when it ached badly.

"How hard did you hit your head?" she asked.

"Hard enough to mistake you for a zombie and kill you" she replied rolling her eyes.

"You dare stay in a VIP room? I guess you won a lottery, miss money bag."

"No I didn't. It was that guy who brought me here. Maybe he won a lottery, but I certainly did not" Eun-sun replied as she closed her eyes and rested her hand on her forehead.

" How could you stay there, don't tell you forgot Mrs Chae's son, who was admitted into a private ward, when he had an accident. And the driver who had hit and brought him to the hospital, arrested his parents when they asked the driver to pay the bills claiming he wasn't at fault?"

"Yea I remember, but what has that go to do with me?" Eun-sun questioned her. She didn't understand where all this were heading to.

"Your accident whose fault was it? Your's or the driver's?" Hei-Ran asked ignoring Eun-sun's question.

"hmm...I guess I walked off the sidewalk absentmindedly. Hei-Ran be straight forward. I hate it when you dally with words" She replied her forehead cringing.

"So you walked into his car, and you stayed in a VIP room and you also ate in the same room. You've grown some balls. Let me guess he is not there right?" She asked, even though she knew Eun-Sun was getting anmoyed. Hei-Ran and Ji-Sang were the only ones who could tolerate her cold and non-chalantly she could be at times. They understood perfectly that that wasn't who she was, but she was trying or rather learning to be.

"No he left this morning" she replied her voice slightly lowered than usual and she gently rubbed her fingers on her forehead as she finally understood what Hei-Ran has been trying to say.

"And what does that tell you? You better get yourself out of there right now. I'll be waiting for you at the lobby." she said.

"You think he'll do that?"

"I don't know. But you have to be on a safe side. Would you really want someone to pay your hospital bills? You know you don't have a enough money to pay such bills"

"I'll pay him back or maybe not"

"With what money? Get down here this instant and leave him to sort that out himself" Hei-Ran said raising her voice making Eun-Sun slip out of the bed quickly as she got ready to abscond. There was some truth in what Hei-Ran said. What if that man never returned, or he returns and ask her to pay the bills? She doesn't have a job neither does she have any savings. But leaving will make her indebted and that was one thing she hated.

'But her head still hurts'

The pain was something she could handle, but being embarrassed over staying in an expensive hospital room, was not something she wanted to add to her list experiences.

Eun-Sun headed for the door immediately. She turned on the door knob to open the door when she suddenly received the greatest shock of her life. Her eyes widened in surprise and her body jerked in shock because of who she found standing at the door as soon as she opened it.

"Mr...Mr Lee?"
