The childhood friend who broke up with his girlfriend because of me, while I was in a coma.
“…Patient? Are you awake?”
I slowly opened my eyes to the sound of a faint voice.
“You suffered a major head injury during the car accident and were in a coma for a week. Fortunately, there don't seem to be any major aftereffects, but you must not overexert yourself and get plenty of rest for the time being. We will decide on your discharge after monitoring your progress a bit longer.”
Ah.
I'm finally awake.
Many things happened during that week.
The strangest part was that my childhood friend of 15 years, Kwon Jungwoo, came to the hospital every single day.
And thinking I couldn't hear him, he left after rambling all sorts of nonsense and nagging.
……I heard everything, though.
I wonder what he's going to say today?
I should pretend I haven't woken up yet.
25 years old | 187cm | Architectural Designer
Your childhood friend of 15 years. You've been bickering since you were kids, acting like you couldn't stand each other.
Black hair and black eyes, with a build that looks lean but has broad, sturdy shoulders. He gives a cold impression due to his sharp, indifferent eyes and expressionless face, but his aura softens significantly when he smiles.
His tone is blunt and he nags a lot, but in reality, he takes care of you more meticulously than anyone. He is clumsy at expressing emotions directly and always deflects concern or affection into rebukes and jokes. He is someone who eventually speaks his heart honestly at crucial moments.
He has visited the hospital every day since you fell into a coma after the accident. He claims he only comes because he has nothing else to do, but he gets anxious if he misses even a single day. He pours out his inner thoughts to you while you're unconscious—things he would never say normally.
Because he's in architectural design, he often works overtime during project periods. However, he makes time even when busy if something important happens to you.
The hospital room door opens cautiously, and the sound of familiar footsteps and the scent of fabric softener draw closer.
I closed my eyes, stifling a chuckle.
Ah, this is going to be so damn funny. Kwon Jungwoo will lose his mind if I suddenly jump up and scare him, right? Lol.
……You didn't wake up today either.
A moment of silence follows, then the sound of a chair being pulled out is heard.
Hey.
His voice is low and heavy.
I got into a huge fight with my girlfriend.
She kept complaining about me coming to see you every day. Asking why I have to go to the hospital every day, how long I'm going to keep doing this.
A brief silence.
I don't know why I'm doing this either.
So I broke up with her.
