Assalamualaikum Captain

Wait for me

Two days passed unnoticed. The closeness of the two was no longer as awkward as before. And Joo Young still keeps the norms of Religion that Jia embraced by trying not to touch the girl.

During these two days, Jia underwent therapy to walk. Because Sua said, she would be paralyzed forever if not try to move more using her legs. Of course it was just a joke from him. Jia only had a minor injury to her leg. Even so, the leg muscles that are stiff because they are not moved for a long time must be retrained. Nurse Hye Jin is assigned by Joo Young to help Jia live but that is.

"Why not sleep?"

Jia, who was standing in front of the window, looked at the city at night, turning her body to the source of the sound.

"You just got home?"

Joo Young nodded her head as she approached the girl.

"You haven't answered my question, yet" he stopped right beside Jia.

"I'm not sleepy yet."

Joo Young smiled, "Say you're waiting for me."

"No. I'm not sleepy yet" the girl misbehaved when Joo Young tried to tease her.

"Yes, yeah, yeah," he laughed.

"I'm sorry. There are a lot of file reports that I have to take care of because it's been delayed while I've been taking care of you here" Joo Young added.

"I'm sorry I've been bothering you too" Jia said, feeling guilty.

Joo Young smiled faintly, "Don't apologize. Because that's my responsibility."

The girl smiled hearing that.

"Have you had dinner?"

"It has. Sua came to bring me some porridge."

"Oh, thank goodness. I can't afford to buy food."

"You want something? dessert or something?" added Joo Young.

Jia smiled as she shook her head. "I am full" he replied.

Previously, since the end of lunch, Joo Young said goodbye to him to go to the Battalion. Because since the dissolution of the Company, the man has not included a report as long as he and his members guard the border.

Jia threw her gaze back out the window. From the sixth floor of this hospital, he could see some casual dressed girls were joking while waiting for the bus. The hospital is directly opposite the bus stop.

He smiled when he saw the girls embracing each other. There was a longing in his heart. But he didn't know who the longing was for.

"Whoever, I feel like I have a best friend like them" he said, which made Joo Young take notice of the girls.

"And somehow, I kind of missed a friend," his gaze became sad.

While Joo Young just mute next to him.

"Je." Jia."

The girl looked at Joo Young.

"It's eleven o'clock, it's time for you to go to bed."

"I'm not sleepy yet."

"Lay down, slowly you will be sleepy. You need to rest a lot because of your therapy schedule."

"But I'm not yet sleepy Joo," Jia said to Joo Young.

"There's no rejection, Jia."

Jia breathed her sigh. Slowly he began to approach his bed while pushing the support pole of the infusion tube and lying there.

For some reason, when the man said those three words "No rejection" to him, he always could not argue.

Jia froze as Joo Young suddenly walked up to her and helped envelop her body. Unknowingly he was stunned by the handsome face of that man.

"I hope you don't look at other men with that kind of look" Joo Young said, smiling.

Jia's face immediately blushed hearing what Joo Young said. The girl got caught again.

He turned his gaze towards the window while enduring his embarrassment. For the umpteenth time, Joo Young always realized the girl was staring at him without blinking.

"Already, close your eyes."

Jia nodded slowly then closed her eyes.

The man shifted the small bed that was indeed provided by the hospital from under Jia's bed. He sat himself on the shelf, staring at Jia's face from the side.

I made this decision very carefully. The matchmaking business will be over when we get married. So help me find the bright spot of my past.

Until then, I promise to take care of you as much as I can.

"Sleep well" whispered Joo Young who then immediately laid her body.

-------------

Jia woke up from her sleep as she felt like urinating. Slowly he got out of bed. His eyes were fixed on the wall clock that had shown at 2 p.m. The girl intended to perform Tahajud prayers. He walked slowly while pushing the infusion pole.

Before long, the girl returned to her bed. He paused for a moment beside his bed while glancing at Joo Young who was sleeping. There was a soft snoring from the man.

Carefully, Jia fixed the blanket that no longer covered the man's body.

"Thank you Joo" he said.

The girl put on her face and went back to sitting in bed. He still could not perform the standing prayer. He solemnly performed his worship.

---------------

Joo Young was stunned when he saw Jia was solemn in performing prayers.

He got up from his sleep and sat down while watching every move the girl made.

Until finally, the girl said her greeting while turning her head to the right and left.

"Did I wake you?" jia asked after finishing the prayers she recited.

Jia was only Oh-ria as her hands moved to release the mucus she was wearing. Carefully she removed her face so that the hijab she was wearing inside did not come apart.

"Actually, there's something I want to talk about," he fixed his sitting position. Jia looked at him.

"What about?"

"The next morning, I have to go back to Seoul," he looked doubtfully at the girl, "But I can't take you back with me yet."

"Why is that?"

"I have to go somewhere. Well, let's say it's a school. My departure is at the behest of my superiors. And also, you still have to do the treatment here."

"Do you know what my profession is?" ask Joo Young.

Jia nodded her head, "Said Min Hyuk, you're a soldier of the rank of Captain."

"Rubber. And starting tomorrow, I'm reassigned to lead the special forces," he stared fixedly at Jia's face, "I want you to know, when I've got the command to lead the special forces, and he's got the command, that means part of my time and I will belong to the State."

"Are you having no problem sharing with my country?" ask Joo Young.

How can it be a problem for me, while I feel like I don't love you. Wouldn't it be hard if people loved each other when they had to separate?

"I-i"

"I understand how you feel" Joo Young interjected.

Your feelings that don't love me.

The man smiled faintly.

Jia's forehead frowned at him.

"One more week will be in autumn. One week at the beginning of next month, is my birthday, on Saturday. Tomorrow is Sunday, the day of our wedding. Can you wait for me until the day I return?" he looked at Jia's bead.

"When I arrive in Seoul, I have to go to school for a few days. There's a lot I have to learn there. Can you wait for me here?"

Jia nodded slowly, "Alright. I'll wait for you to come back."

Joo Young smiled, "Run your treatment in earnest," her voice sounded resolute.

"Yes." Yeah."

"I've also hired a Korean teacher for you. I want you to be able to communicate with the people you meet later."

"All right."

"As long as I'm not around, Sua will accompany you here."

Jia nodded in understanding.

"You have to take care of your health."

Once again the girl nodded her head.

"Don't sleep too late."

"All right."

"Don't forget to eat on time."

"Yes." Yeah."

"Eat the medicine or vitamins that nurse Hye Jin gave her in a timely manner."

"Yeah" he answered lazily.

"If you need anything, just call Sua with it," Joo Young pointed at the nightstand drawer beside Jia with her chin.

Jia who had yet to understand the hint frowned at him.

"Open that drawer" said Joo Young.

Jia picked up a white box from inside the drawer, "Mobile?" ask the girl.

"Yes. Return Sua's cell phone and use my gift" Jia opened the white box and took out the contents. A phone with an apple logo that has been bitten with gold color adds to the expensive impression of the square object, "I've entered the contacts of the people you need to contact there. It's me, my father, Sua and Min Hyuk. It's up to you to install any application," he added.

"Thank you Joo."

Joo Young smiled as she looked at him who was now cool with the square object.

"Ah, one more."

Jia sighed then glanced lazily, "What else?" ask the girl.

"Don't forget to miss me."

Joo Young smiled with satisfaction at the look on the girl's face.
