Dr. Ara

"Nice job Ara, your skills are definitely improving, in a few years time I think I might actually have a worthy competition in Cardio."

I smile and bow in thanks at the compliments of my mentor. It's been 5 years working under Dr. Christina Yang and everyday I had to pinch myself to be able to work with such a renowned figure in Cardio and now shes complimenting me!

"That reminds me are you are accepting my job offer right?"

"Yea, I mean if nothing has changed I was planning on taking it."

"Good, I don't want to have an incompetent surgeon on to take over as head. Listen kid you are a Cardio God now don't forget it. A little young but who cares"

I smile thinking about my first day in residency as a 15 year old doctor, Dr. Yang took one look at me and pointed me in the direction of the day care but I proved myself worthy.  

"Ok now this hospital has a stupid rule to 'reward' the top fellow and unfortunately that person is you."

"Unfortunately?"

"Yea you have received the prize of accompanying a idol group as their on duty doctor for the last two months of the year, which means less surgeries but you get to travel around a bit but I don't know how that matters."

"Can't I refuse, I mean I rather stay back and do more surgeries."

"Trust me kid I tried, they just said something stupid about teaching surgeons to life life as well, I even tried to transfer you and me back to Seattle or Switzerland but legal got in the way so yea congrats I'll see you in the new year. Here is the band's information someone will be dropping off the files at your place tomorrow and you are supposed to go to the labels office on Monday, no scrubs, and yea knock yourself out, don't kill any idols."

She left me standing there with a folder that contained the group I was going to be looking after for the next two months. I sighed and headed to the locker room to change out of my scrubs and meet my roommate who was probably bored to death in the lobby waiting for me to finish my shift. We were celebrating her first modeling gig for Zara, to say Yana was pretty was to say that the world was round there was no disputing that. I spot her slouched on the couch glaring at the coffee table for some unknown reason.

"Ready to go?"

Her head snaps to me and she nods jumping up.

"Finally! I was thinking of breaking my toe so I could come in and drag you out."

"Dragging me out would be hard with a broken toe."

"Good point, I'll think of some medical emergency next time."

"Next time?"

"Yup, next time."

I laugh and pull her out the doors of the hospital. We begin the walk to the restaurant around the block.

"Slow down! Not everyone is blessed with your 5'9 height Ara!"

Despite her being the model between us I was the taller one out of the two of us, actually usually the tallest in a room full of girls. Needless to say dating was a struggle.

"Sorry, sorry, Im just really hungry. I just want food."

"If you quit being a surgeon you can eat all the time, now doesn't that sound appealing?"

"Shut up."

"Ugh I don't know how you do it, look inside people's chests all day and then go out and eat meat at night, I would probably become a vegetarian if I were you." I shrug

"You just have to have the stomach for it."

"Your starting to sound like your mentor now." Yana despised Dr. Yang ever since she Yang dissed her on the first meeting you can see clear daggers shooting out of Yana's eyes every time it landed on Dr.Yang.

"That's not a bad thing you know."

"I swear if you bring your cut through competitiveness and Yangness out of the hospital I will disown you as my friend, you are only allowed to be my shy, beautiful friend here in the real world ok."

I laugh and put my hands up in surrender to her pointed finger. We take our usual seat in the restaurant, right by the window so we can watch as people walk by.

"So how was the shoot."

"Amazing the clothes were so pretty, can you believe they let me take some."

"Oh new clothes for me to 'borrow’."

She rolled her eyes at me, at this point we barely knew whose clothes were who's we just kept borrowing each others throughout the years.

"Oh by the way I got a girl to fill out the third bedroom, she's a freshman in my old university but shes super sweet."

"How'd you meet her."

"I posted on the school page and she responded and I met her over coffee this morning, I just wanted to run it by you before I got back to her."

"If you think she's cool then yes why not, plus i might be around for the next two months either."

"What why?"

"I'm on idol duty, for the next two months Im on the on set doctor for a band called BTS?"

Yana yelped

"BTS? Are you fucking kidding me."

"Don't swear! And yea who are they?"

"Wow you really do tune out my rants, they are one of the biggest groups now, they debuted two years."

"Oh, well yea I'm in charge of following them around and making sure they are healthy."

"I take back you quitting surgery, keep going girl. You get to follow around 7 good looking men, maybe one will fall in love with you. Oh my. This could be the end of your dating tragedies."

"No one is going to fall in love with me and what tragedies, you have had far worse relationships."

"Yea right, the guy from two years ago is the worst boyfriend in the history of boyfriends"

I groan trying to change the subject. We went on to mindlessly talk about our lives catching up on what we missed over the last 48 hours since we saw each other. We strolled down the streets of the brightly lit capital eventually making it to our humble abode, 3 bedrooms in a university location blessing from my family especially with our current financial status.

"Hey Ara, do you ever wonder what your life would be like if you didn't graduate when you were 10."

"Nope, I always think about how my life would be if I didn't have a best friend that stuck with me through med school while she was in middle school."

"Yea I know I'm great."

We both say goodnight and head into our separate bedrooms, around 2 hours later I heard the familiar creaking of my door and my covers shift as Yana snuggles into bed next to me.

---- ----

I groan as I hear a pop song play from Yana's phone.

"Growl, Growl"

"Yana turn it off."

"No, this is your jam."

"Not at 6 am, turn it off."

"You can't silence Exo Ara."

"I can hit you Yana, turn your alarm off."

"No."

I take the pillow next to me and hit her in the head with it.

"Ow, you're going to give me a concussion."  

I groan and finally sit up glaring at the human being curled up next to me. "

You are going to make me hate music."

"No, someone's love for Exo can't die it's scientifically proven. Wait!"

She jumped up grabbing onto my shoulders.

"It December next month, that means award shows, that means BTS is going and that means you will be in the same vicinity as Exo. Listen to me very carefully, you must kidnap at least 2 members of Exo ok?"

"Fangirls like you are the reason they have security."

"They have security to protect us from their handsome face." I looked at her confused at her logic.

"It's too early for your craziness."

"On good days you are crazier than me. You're just sleep deprived."

I collapse back on to the pillow. "Amen."
