chapter two

A SUV stopped right before the entrance of the Seogu University hospital.

"Hey you can't stop your car here!" Ignoring the security man trying to stop them, Yoo Bongpal and Shin Sulan get out from the driver seat and passenger seat respectively then head for the main entrance without glancing back at the security man. 

Right now they couldn't think of anything except for the fact that they heard that their daughter wasn't dead but still alive. 

A black Rolls-Royce stops next to the SUV and Lee Yiwon steps out from the driver seat. 

He was following behind them in his car. 

He immediately dash after them, ignoring the same security man calling after him as well. 

He was still at the scene of the accident, tending to wrap up the situation when he received a call from one of the doctors that the victim was alive. 

Hearing the news he had informed her parents and here they were.

"Nurse!, Nurse!" With a worried expression on her face Shin Sulan ran to the nurses at the reception desk trembling. Her husband is tagging behind her. 

"My daughter was brought here"

"What is your daughter's name?." The nurses asked politely.

"Yoo Na Young" Yoo Bongpal quickly replied before Shin Sulan could open her mouth. She nodded her head in agreement.

"Give me a moment to check ma'am" The nurse replied, looking back into the computer in front of her, typing into it.

The nurse looked up smiling warmly at them but one could see a tinge of pity in her eyes. 

The news of Na Young's death is quite popular around the city and the nurse seeing the patient's parents couldn't help but feel sad for them. 

She cleared her voice before replying. "You are going to thirteen floor. the third ward at that floor is the room she is admitted to"

Bobbing her head Shin Sulan answered. "Thank you very much" 

And together with her husband and Lee Yiwon they ran toward the direction given to them.

People naturally make way for them seeing the speed they are using in running.

They dash into the elevator and the door slid shut. Lee Yiwon pressed the number of the floor they were heading to. 

Silence descended as the only thing heard was the sound of the elevator going up. Suddenly the elevator ding and opened on its own, stepping onto the floor they walk into the hallway checking each ward number. 

A crowd gathered at the next ward caught their attention. They quickly moved closer to them and looked inside the ward trying to find what had caused the large crowds. 

The door was transparent glass, so anyone could see what was going on inside.

Sulan's eyes quivered as her eyes landed on her daughter laying on the bed as the doctors tended to her with their full attention. She couldn't believe her eyes that she was seeing her daughter again.

Yoo Na Young's case was a big experience for the doctors. A heart which had stopped beating started again without a notice. They have never encountered such a case before in their years of work.

It was a miracle; an unimaginable one. Almost all of the doctors had taken interest in her case, trooping her ward to see the miracle for themselve.

Shin Sulan and Yoo Bongpal tried forcing their way in but couldn't because of the crowd at the door. Not giving up they continue trying but it is totally not possible with the crowd pushing them back. 

Tears rushed down Sulan's cheek. Why won't they just allow her to see her daughter?.

The door finally snapped open and the crowd dispersed at the order of the doctors. They grumble in dissatisfaction but are left with no option but to leave the premises.

Recognizing Lee Yiwon, one of the doctors moved closer to him and asked. "Detective Lee Yiwon. What brings you here?."

Lee Yiwon pointed at the couple beside him and replied. "These are the patient parents. I came with them"

The doctor turned and bowed courteously to the couple with them bowing their heads back simultaneously.

"Doctor, please let us go in and see our daughter," Yoo Bongpal said earnestly as he joined his palm together in front of the doctors. His eyes reddened as though he was going to start crying at any second.

The doctor nodded, and gestured his hand toward the door. Seeing that the doctor had granted them access, the couple walked to the entrance of the door. 

Shin sulan inhales nervously in fear of not knowing what she will meet once the door opens. What if all this was just a dream, and her daughter was truly dead. 

Her husband, noticing her reluctance, squeezed her palm with his as he whispered to her. "Try not to worry too much. She will be fine"

Yoo Bongpal pushed the door open and went in with his wife. Their eyes landed on Na Young whose body was inserted with a tube, breathing through an oxygen mask.

Shin Sulan hastily rushed over and held her hand in her palm while the other caressed her black curly hair. 

Her voice trembled from excitement as she said. "Thank you darling, for coming back to us"

Breathing out in relief, a smile curled at Yoo Bongpal's lip which showcase his excitement. His smile grew wide as he stared at his daughter. He couldn't explain the great happiness trumping in his heart at the moment. 

"Don't you ever leave us again?.'' He whispered slowly, a sparkle lit up in his eyes.

Right after the words left Yoo Bongpal mouth the warning alarm situated next to Yoo Na Young bed started beeping in an ear shattering manner

"What's happening?. Something is wrong'' Shin Sulan asked her husband, rushing her words in a panic tone.

When the hospital staff heard the emergency beeping, the doctor who had allowed them to enter and another doctor rushed in. 

They quickly perform an emergency rescue on Kim Na Young while the nurses on the side lead the couple out of the room. 

Not daring to argue with them, they sob while walking toward Lee Yiwon. At that same time, a figure emerges from Yoo Na Young's body unknown to anyone. 

However the figure striking a resemblance to the body on the bed couldn't be deemed as a coincidence. 

It was certainly Na Young's body or more accurately her soul. 

The beeping alarm continued and the doctor resumed resuscitating Yoo Na Young before sending her to the ICU. Na Young's soul gaze bore a hole on the body laid on the stretcher as she watched the body being stretched away to the ICU. 

A deep frown marred her forehead. She was totally confused as to what was going on. Is she dead or alive, she couldn't fathom that.

Passing through the door to the hallway without the door opening made her curiosity grow high. it was as if she could teleport. 

Her eyes scurry around until they land on the back view of a man standing a few metres from her. She moved closer to the man and the people her eyes landed on next to him were her parents.

What caught her attention was her mother's sob. Her heart ached upon seeing her parents crying at the end of the hallway.

What's happening?. Why is her parents crying?. Did this man make them cry?. 

At the thought of Lee Yiwon making her parents cry. Na Young bared her teeth angrily. She smacks the back of Yiwon's head but instead of her hand landing on him in a loud slap. It passed through his head without any obstructions.

Lee Yiwon crouched down next to the couple and tried his best in consoling them, assuring them that everything would be alright. 

This man is definitely not a threat to her parents seeing how he consoles them. Na young thought Ashen face as she stared at Yiwon

She ruffled through her hair in frustration and the colour drained from her face when she tried holding her mother's arm but her hand passed through her arm without any resistance. 

Her mind went blank. What the hell is happening to her?.

Why can't they see her whereas she is seeing them?.

Suddenly a thought nagged at her at that moment. This was not her body but her soul. Then Is she dead?. Is that the reason why her parents are crying?. 

Fear gripped her instantly. She is dead. She won't be able to relate with her parents anymore and him, her boyfriend. She remembers they were supposed to meet today. Has he also heard the news of her death?. How will he be feeling now?. 

of course heartbroken, pain and in agony.

Tears rolled down her cheek. She touched her face and scoffed seeing the trinkled water. A dry laughter escaped her mouth. 

Does a ghost also cry?.

With these questions still occupying her mind. She started feeling a strange movement on her body.

She screams in horror as she looks at herself and notices she is fading away slowly with her lower body gone remaining the upper body and almost immediately she disappeared completely from the hallway…. As if she was never there.
