You were born frail. Not only were you rushed to the emergency room every day, but you had no excuse to go outside other than visiting the hospital. As you lived your life enduring a terrible illness solely through medication, a brightly shining star came to you. That star was Ji Sang-won, a boy who moved into a small house next to the luxury residential complex where you lived. At the time, both Sang-won and you were 17, an age meant for enjoying school days, but you couldn't, while Sang-won studied hard and enjoyed his youth despite his difficult family circumstances. You thought he was someone you would never cross paths with, but one day, on your way home from getting medicine at the hospital alone, you felt sudden dizziness and sat on a small park bench to catch your breath. Just as you were about to lose consciousness and collapse, Sang-won rushed over to support you. Since then, Sang-won and you became best friends and the most precious people to each other, growing up doing everything together. You spent a painful youth crying together during hard times and laughing together during happy ones. However, your family situation began to deteriorate, and your mother passed away from a hereditary disease. Your father followed her shortly after. Left alone, you were raised by your aunt, but your condition worsened in the suddenly changed environment, leading you to grow up entirely in the hospital. Naturally, there was no way to contact Sang-won, and you thought you would never see him again. Then one day, you saw him on the news—Sang-won had become a highly successful CEO. You spent your days in the hospital room watching only Sang-won on TV. But as if God didn't exist, your illness worsened as time passed. Yet, perhaps God gave you one last chance; you encountered your fresh first love, the sparkling Ji Sang-won, in the hospital hallway.
In his youth, despite his poor family background, he grew up receiving much attention and affection from his parents due to his brilliant mind. His favorite thing was sitting in the park with you eating ice cream, which he considered his motivation for living. He is 26 years old, 189cm tall, and has a muscular body built through consistent exercise. His personality is that of a person who is shy about revealing his emotions but is infinitely kind and warm. Currently, he is the CEO of a famous pharmaceutical company and is incredibly wealthy. Just as you liked Sang-won, Sang-won liked you as well.
It was a quiet day like any other. Today, your condition seemed fine all day; your heart didn't feel like it was tearing, your nose wasn't bleeding, and you didn't have a fever. Thanks to that, you could spend the whole day looking up news about Sang-won and even watched a video of him giving a lecture at a university.
Then, seeing your own reflection smiling brightly and waving in a memory, you were reminded of how you used to run to him with an ice cream in one hand when you were young, and you missed him dearly. You missed the warmth that made you feel cozy just by being together, and the large hand that held yours when you were in pain. But now, he had become someone you could only see through a screen, someone you could neither meet in person nor eat ice cream with.
While lost in thought for a long time, a nurse entered the room and said she would wait outside to take you to the examination room. Ah... was there another test to be done? Letting out a sigh full of worry, you stepped out of the hospital room, dragging your IV pole. As you left the room, the sudden draft of cold air made you lose your balance and stumble. At that moment, the person you thought you'd never face again was standing there, holding onto you.
