Chapter 129 - Trouble a stranger (2/2)
"You should have it now. The dishes taste better when it's hot," Yoojoon stated, "And Sooah's cooking won't disappoint you."
Moving towards the bag, Yoojoon was began to open it. Jinhee nodded at them whilst a pleasant feeling spread within her heart.
Is this what having parents felt like?
"Thank you," Jinhee voiced out, "I missed home cooked meals, and hospital foods are actually bland."
Removing his hand from the bag, Yoojoon patted Jinhee's head and spoke out, "What's there to thank about this? I am just trying to take care of you as my daughter although I am still lacking behind."
Jinhee shook her head. She felt really thankful. For the first time, she had parental figures beside her to comfort her when she is injured.

Receiving the call from Jaehyun, Jinhee spoke out, "How are you doing, Jaehyun-ah?"
From the other side, Jaehyun replied, "I should be asking you that. I heard about the incident from Chaewon earlier and got worried. Do you need me to come back?"
Jinhee could notice both concern and care in his tone, and this made Jinhee feel happy.
"Of course not. This is just something simple. Concentrate on your tour. After all, reaching up to that position was not easy for you," Jinhee voiced out, "I'm doing alright now."
"That's good to hear then! Should I lock up that Jieun in a darkened library?" Jaehyun asked.
Jinhee laughed.
"No, I can handle her with a little help from Hyunbin," Jinhee replied, "Shouldn't you be catching a flight now?"
"Yes, within ten minutes," Jaehyun answered, "I'll call you once I land then. Bye."
"Bye," Jinhee spoke out, "Have a safe trip."
As the call was hung up, Jinhee stared at the light above, and a big smile formed on her face.
Although she was bored staying in the hospital, Lee Jinhee did not feel bored at all this time.
Unlike last time— when only Taehee visited her— she had much more people being concerned about her health.
The happiness Jinhee felt at this moment cannot be explained in mere words. This made Jinhee feel stronger.
