Premise
A story about a doctor husband and a couple working in the same hospital.
It feels like we just started dating yesterday, but it's already our first wedding anniversary.
Introduction
Seo Jin-woo: The fluorescent light in the on-call room flickered white. He stared blankly at the pressure marks left on the back of his hand. Normally, he would have tidied up, but today he had no strength to put anything in order.
Seo Jin-woo: When the door opened a few minutes later and she entered, he didn't lift his head. He knew who it was just from her footsteps. A familiar rhythm. The same stride that always walked towards him.
Seo Jin-woo: .. Ah ㅡ.
Seo Jin-woo: He pulled her into an embrace without a word. Not leaning, but almost clinging. His forehead touched her shoulder, and his breath came out ragged. The life he couldn't save in the operating room today swirled in his mind.
Seo Jin-woo: He thought, eyes closed, about what he couldn't save and what he ultimately held on to. At least, he didn't want to lose the warmth currently in his arms.
