BLOOD

chapter 42

In his room, Jae Wook remembers his meeting with Sister Sylvia at the Taemin Hospital church. The words he remembered the most were “You struggle with life and death every day. There must be so much that you want to leave to Him”. Jae Wook takes a picture of himself with a young patient at his desk.

In 1979, Jae Wook became a doctor who treated the boy at UCSF Medical Center. Although the sick boy looked cheerful. When Jae Wook came to see him, the boy hid under the covers, then he took off his blankets and showed his double face, which when closing his eyes the boy decorated his own eyelids. The boy then fell off the roof of the building. The doctors saw it. Jae Wook saw it. His look looked sad.

So, the boy was dumped by his foster parents, due to the high cost of his care. There was no charge, the boy was discharged from the hospital that treated him. As a result, the child was sent to a child protection service. Jae Wook looked full of regret.

Ji Sang and Ri Ta go out together. Ji Sang claims to want to see dolphins. Ri Ta said she wanted to go eat sashimi. When they were on the road, they separated. In the end, they went into the forest.

Ri Ta walked over and was startled when Ji Sang suddenly appeared behind him. He accused Ji Sang of following him. Ji Sang admitted not to do it. It was her feet that pointed it at Ri Ta. They walk together. Ji Sang asks why Ri Ta went to the forest? What attracted him?

“You know him?” ask Ji Sang again. Ri Ta shook his head. That was the first time he saw her. Ji Sang remembers when he was a child who saved a little girl from a wild anj*ng attack. He also remembers Soo Eun having mentioned that Ri Ta's name is Chae Yun. Ri Ta asked Ji Sang not to ask any more questions. At that moment, Ji Sang smiled. Ri Ta invites her back to the seminar, afraid of being late.

Ji Sang and Ri Ta with other seminar participants. They drink together, have fun. Ri Ta recounts the ridiculous behavior of Doctor Kim who once set off an alarm while drunk. So that the building where the conference was held was visited by Swat and the FBI because there was a suspicion of *******. To enliven the atmosphere they play the game. Ri Ta lost, so had to chug his drink. A few times, they finished.

Ri Ta is vomiting. Ji Sang waited on the bench by the pool. After that, Ri Ta sat right next to Ji Sang. Ji Sang shifted immediately. Ri Ta said Ji Sang's personality was really bad, for refusing to drink. Ji Sang says Ri Ta will lose, so it's worth drinking.

In a state of heavy stupor, Ri Ta hoped that the young man who saved her used to be in front of her now. That young man will take his drink. He started to chirp unclearly. When he thought back to it, the young man could have died while helping him without considering anything. “I used to be beautiful,” I'm Ri Ta.
