Have we met before?

"Oh, you're the unlucky guy from yesterday! you're back!" Rudy said chuckling, "Unlucky guy? you people give nicknames here?!" Cyrus repeated the word in confusion.

Realizing he might've said something wrong, "Uhm...sorry, it's just all the nurses have been talking about you...you're a unique kinda guy." Rudy replied nervously.

"Oh and Your dad was hospitalized here first! then you in one day!...Bad luck get it?" Rudy said, smiling "Oh I get it, the funny part is that we both fell, in the same building on the same day...I think our apartment complex is cursed or something." Cyrus replied chuckling.

Relaxing a bit, "Oh well, not as cursed as mine! I feel like I'm being watched in my own apartment!

The land lady said the place was occupied by a murdered college girl before me...Ugh, I shiver everytime I hear a weird noise in that place." Rudy replied while actually shivering.

Cyrus let out a laugh, "You're funny!" He said, "I'm Cyrus by the way, Cyrus Melaina...I came back because my headaches got worse." he added extending his hand for a shake.

Smiling big, "Oh I see! btw you're like the friendliest patient I've met in a while! I'm Rudy Bay...I'm not just funny but probably the least mean nurse around here.

I can't really blame my fellow nurses especially the girls...the job took a toll on everyone here, some of us are loosing our positive attitude towards life." Rudy replied while shaking Cyrus's hand.

"Btw Cyrus, have we met before? I feel like I've seen you at least once." Rudy asked, "I doubt it, just moved around here yesterday." Cyrus replied.

"Yesterday? that's awesome man! maybe I can show you around someday! I Know lots of cool places here."

"Then why not meet up after your shift?"

"No can do...I'm expecting company any minute now." Rudy said excitedly while checking his watch.

"That smile, Sounds like it involves some romance." Cyrus said chuckling, "Is it that obvious! well it's a secret between us for now!" Rudy replied smiling brightly.

"My lips are sealed Rudy... Anyways, I got to go see the doctor now, so can I have your number or I don't know, like your Sistagram account or something?"

"Yeah sure! just one second."

...Few minutes later...

"And There's nothing to worry about Mister Melaina, it's Normal to suffer from headaches after an injury like this."

"So I just have to stick to rest and painkillers?"

"Yes, we have done everything necessary yesterday and we determined that your injury is a mild case...so there's nothing to worry about really, but if these headaches keep worsening with time, you can come back and we can run the tests again, to see if we overlooked anything." The Physician explained.

"Thank you doctor."

"It's my job, no need to thank me...However I may have to ask you, since yesterday I missed the chance...But how come you got injured in the first place? "

"I thought my friend has explained it yesterday, you know the Woman with the tattoos and piercings."

Suspicious, "She did, she said you fell on your head while stargazing." the physician replied.

"There you have it! your answer." Cyrus said with a smile, "Are you sure, no one attempted to hurt you mister?" the physician asked.

"What? Oh! No no! not at all." Cyrus said chuckling, "I just lost my balance...why do you ask? is necessary or something?!" he added.

"I found marks and scars on your body of various types, it seemed like you were being subjected to some sort of abuse for years at least." The physician said.

"Oh, these scars aren't made by people, at least no one other than me... Honestly, I rather that you wouldn't worry yourself with this Ma'am." Cyrus replied with a hint of discontent.

"I see, It seems like I misunderstood things...you can leave, take care Mister Melaina." the physician said.

"Okay! Thanks again ma'am." Cyrus replied standing up.

"One more question, sorry about interfering again...but a nurse brought it to my attention that your father, was also hospitalized here yesterday as well, hours before you."

"Yes, he also fell down and hurt his ankle...the nurses already gave me a nickname for that."

"Yes I am sorry about that too, anyways your father...he refused to take any tests yesterday as you know.

I advice you to try and change his mind, his health from what I can tell, isn't in a good condition." the physician said, "Is that all? then, have a nice day." Cyrus replied and left the office.

Seong-min was outside waiting for him, "What took you so long?" She asked, "The doctor suspected that someone attacked me...girl I saved your ass in there, be grateful." Cyrus replied.

"Aishhhhh...and they say physicians aren't mind readers! why did she get suspicious?" Seong-min said sarcastically.

"Because of some old scars I have, nothing that has anything to do with you.

Anyways Min...just how many Lattes did you have today? earlier I met Rudy again and you were nowhere to be found! did you go to buy another drink?!

I don't think I saw you hit the restroom not once today!" Cyrus scolded her while pointing at the cup in her hands.

"Did you have to say it like that! ugh, now I want to pee! where's the restroom in this place?!" Seong-min asked, pointing at its direction "Over there, go and I'll carry your drink for you, I'll be waiting here." Cyrus said.

"Thanks bro!" Seong-min replied handing him the drink before she ran in a hurry to find the restroom.

...Few minutes later...

"Miss...can i ask you something?"

Seong-min was taken by surprise when a clean shaven dirty blonde haired man with a fair complexion, approached the 18 years old girl, right after she left the restroom.

He was dressed well in an expensive grey suit and wore serial killer like Glasses, while carrying a black business suitcase in his hand.

The man seemed like someone who just came from a long business trip, and although he spoke one sentence, Seong-min the movie nerd she is, managed to catch that mid Atlantic accent that lots of superstars speak in.

Since the man approached her rather politely and timidly, and was seemingly around her dad's age, She smiled back at him, "Yes, how can I help you sir?" Seong-min replied doing her best to seem polite.

"I hope I'm not being a nuisance, but I couldn't help but to notice, your dress is extremely beautiful!...it's nothing I have seen in shops lately, did you get it online?" The man asked.

"Yes! it's an international shopping website that sell these, I can show it to you if you want!" Seong-min feeling flattered since this man was the first man to compliment her Maren slip dress without being creepy or seemingly interested in her, hurried to show the man the website she ordered the dress from.

"Oh! thank you! this should suit her taste, I bet it would make a lovely gift for my daughter!" The man cheerfully replied and immediately searched for the website on his phone then he quickly saved the page.

"This dress is very trendy lately due to ClickClock especially in color pink that I'm wearing, that's why it's hard to come by in real shops and boutiques." Seong-min said, "My daughter isn't a pink girl, she's more of a black or white type of person...those are the only colors she wears." The man replied.

Remembering she's supposed to go back to Cyrus "Well, everyone has a style...so, I hope your daughter likes the dress! Bye-bye!" Seong-min said turning around but before she could take one more step, the man stopped her again.

"Miss...I'm sorry to bother you again, but Have we met before? You're not from here are you?" The man asked.

Seong-min spun around to face him again, "Now that I think about it, I think I have seen you somewhere Mister..."

"I'm Sheldon! You're the Young's Heiress! am I correct? your family's name is quite rare in korea."

"Where Have we met again mister Sheldon?"

"We actually met few months ago, at your father's house while I was in Korea for another business trip...I never got the chance to say Your English is very impressive Miss Young." the man replied.

"Thank you, You have an impressive memory too Mister Sheldon...what was your name again?" Seong-min asked, "Oh right! where are my manners." The man said extending his hand for a shake.

"My name is Blake Sheldon, at your service miss Seong-min!" he added with a big smile.

"Blake...Blake?!...wait, by any chance could it be...Are you dating anyone mister Sheldon?" Seong-min asked.

She was surprised when Blake's whole face turned red immediately after her question, "Oh...My! this question was unexpected!" Blake said embarrassed.

"Sorry, it's just that you look as great as ever! when I first met you, you were this extremely happy guy despite being forced to go on so many business trips away from your family.

I used to think about it, how you don't seem demotivated, until I saw the same symptoms in my own father that I understood." Seong-min replied smiling.

She decided to use the situation to her advantages, by using her own experience in the matter "My father, He's been dating lately and as crazy as it sounds, he's dating a type of person I've never thought he would be dating, but he seems happy to say the least and that's all I care about." she spoke again.

"Your father is dating?! well that is by itself, a headline!" Blake said chuckling.

"How about you and I head for the cafeteria, we can talk Alot More there, I regret not having a chance to speak with you before when we first met in my house...You seemed like a friendly gentleman." Seong-min suggested with a welcoming tone.

Blissfully unaware, "I suppose I can spare some time, I'm staying here for a while anyways!" Blake replied cheerfully while following Seong-min.

Meanwhile The sneaky girl sent a message to Cyrus, asking him to give her some alone time to finish a sudden business.

...Some time later...

"I don't see why you're so scared Mister Sheldon!" Seong-min said.

"So do you think she'll accept it?" Blake asked, "Of Course I do! from what I've gathered, I don't see your daughter as someone who would have a problem with you being so in love!

So what is age but a number! well as long as you're both Above the legal age, happy together and in harmony...Who cares if you're a bit older!" Seong-min replied confidently.

Her charms and easygoing nature, Managed to earn her a lengthy and deep conversation with her dad's acquaintance.

"I hope she's really going to be okay with such an arrangement...She is a grown woman now and I'm planing to introduce them both to each other through dinner tonight!" Blake announced.

Clapping her hands together "This is wonderful and as a girl the same age as your daughter, I already gave you my number so don't hesitate to ask me for help concerning her!" Seong-min said.

"Same for you Miss, if you need any service that I can provide, please feel free to contact me...As someone who travels Alot, I know how difficult it is to get adapted into a new country and cultural setting."

"You are truly a gentleman, Mister Sheldon."

"Thank you Miss Young...I never expected to meet you here, and I hope that everything we spoke of remains between us for now."

"Absolutely I've told you about my father's little secret, I can only expect secrecy about the matter from your side as much as you expect it from mine.

So don't worry At all, My lips are sealed Mister Sheldon." Seong-min replied smiling big.
