A phone ring interrupted the silence in the bedroom. The entire room is in a black and white theme. The floor is covered with large black tiles with heavy white grout lines.

The walls were painted white and sheer curtains were placed on the windows. A huge platform bed is placed, giving the whole room a modern touch.

Dr. Lee hurriedly went to his bedside table and took the call. "Hey, I'm on the way to your house." it was Jonathan. His close friend and colleague.

"I'm already done packing," he said in a low voice and ended the call.

He glanced at his luggage placed on the side of his bed. After checking that everything was in place, they carried them downstairs.

    Morning came the next day. The tents were all set up, and the volunteers were already stationed in their respective areas. Ready to accept patients for that day.From the village to the medical camp, it will take them almost 20 minutes to walk. Since the road wasn't that established, it would be dangerous for the villagers to use cars to climb up towards the camp.In the middle, there's a huge tent built. It is where the improvised operating room they had made. Inside, there's Dr. Lee together with two assistant doctors and 1 nurse.Currently, Dr. Lee is undergoing surgery for one of the local villagers who fell off the mountain two days ago.There's an injury to his right leg that wasn't properly treated due to a lack of resources. This caused the villager to feel a throbbing pain whenever he tried to stand up.Fortunately, it's not that long since the accident happened or else they will have a hard time treating the injury."Dr. Lee, Dr. Han has some concerns about a certain patient

    "How was it? Did you find someone?" Dr. Han hurriedly inquired.It was already night time and they were still doing the testing for the patient.The woman, named Aila, had already woken up. She declined to do the surgery. She was very hysterical when Dr. Han explained her condition.She even went berserk and injured a nurse. Fortunately, it was not a severe injury and they managed to suppress her before she could hurt more people.Dr. Lee declared that she was not in her right state of mind and didn't have the ability to make a decision for herself. So, a blood search was immediately held in the village.The villagers were so cooperative in the whole process and expressed their willingness to help Aila."We're already down to the last three villagers. Let's hope that they have an AB- blood type." The nurse regretfully said.Not a moment later, it suddenly rained so hard. Thunderstorms flashed in the sky."Hurry! Go inside the tents! Don't catch a cold." Dr. Han shouted.The doctors an

    Everly moaned from the tapping sunlight against her face. Her eyes fluttered a few times before opening them.The sky had turned bright and the dark clouds they encountered last night were nowhere to be found.She glanced beside her and found her assistant sleeping soundly in the driver's seat. Although her position seemed uncomfortable, it didn't stop her from having a deep slumber."Mary, wake up," she called her name softly."5 more minutes," she mumbled while her eyes tightly shut.Everly held her shoulders and lightly swayed them. "Mary, wake up. It's already morning."This instantly woke Mary up. "Miss, the rain has stopped," she said blankly."I know. We have to go up now." Everly and Mary managed to arrive at the base of the mountain before the storm arrived.However, before they could climb up, the heavy rain started to pour down so hard. Left with no choice, they stayed all night inside the truck.Everly opened the truck's door and went down. There she noticed the road was c

    "No, no, no, Chief. I'm not his girlfriend-" Chief Thomas interrupted Everly's words instantly."Don't be shy about it. If you were not his girlfriend, why would you come to this desolate place? And also, I have never once seen that worried expression of Dr. Lee, so, I know instantly that you are his girlfriend." Chief Thomas eagerly explained."But I'm not-"Dr. Lee grabbed her arm, which made her look at him in surprise. "What are you-"Her breathing hitched instantly when he moved closer to her ears. "There's no use explaining it to him. He is stubborn as a mule, so just let him be." He said in a whisper."But-" In her mind, she wanted to correct Chief Thomas, but in her heart, she didn't want to.Dr. Lee's arms instantly wrapped around her shoulders, stopping her from saying something. "You are really sharp, Chief Thomas. You immediately guessed her relationship with me."Chief Thomas laughed and smugly said, "Of course. You can't hide anything in my old experienced eyes."Everly,

    Dr. Han hurriedly went out of the tent when he heard the news. He thought they were just pranking him when they said that Everly Park was there. With a hurried step, he ran outside.Her feet froze when he saw that gorgeous face he often saw on billboards and TV screens. "Everly?! Everly Park?! It's really you?"Dr. Han couldn't contain his shock. Who would have thought that he would be lucky enough to see her in person in this very desolate area? Should he thank his friend for urging him to volunteer this year?Everly noticed the doctor who came running towards them. She flashed a polite smile and introduced herself."Hi, I'm Everly Park."Dr. Han didn't respond and just stared blankly at her.Everly was starting to feel nervous at his stare, so she looked at Dr. Lee and nudge him slightly. Dr. Lee got her intention.He raised his hands and smacked Dr. Han's shoulders, waking him up. He was also starting to get irritated at him constantly staring at Everly, so the hit was a little bit

    Dr. Lee went out of the tent. He glanced around and found Chief Thomas sitting on a bench together with Jonathan. "Chief Thomas," he said to call out his attention."Oh, the famous traitor is here." Dr. Han accusingly said and glared at him.Dr. Lee confusedly looked at him. "What's wrong with you?"Chief Thomas laughed and answered his curiosity. "He is angry because you didn't tell him that Ms. Park was your girlfriend.""You really hid it very well! Don't you know that you are the greatest thief in the world!" Dr. Han butted in.Dr. Lee's eyebrows furrowed. "Why am I a thief?"Dr. Han answered him with a scoff. "Huh! You are really naive! Everly Park is the dream of all men's population, not just in our country but also abroad. And you just made her your girlfriend. Just wait for it. You will definitely receive a lot of hate comments!"Dr. Lee just ignored him and sat on the vacant seat. He doesn't have time to entertain that."Chief Thomas, just look at that!

    After washing up, Everly wore the clothes given by Dr. Lee. It's quite large for her so she had to make some adjustments.Fortunately, she had some rubber bands in her bag, so it was not that hard for her to fold the pants and the white polo.Since there was no hairdryer in the room, she just casually tied up her hair in a messy bun and applied some face powder on her face. She didn't put any lipstick on her lips since it's naturally pinkish anyway.After doing her thing, she sat around the tent for a while. She carefully observed the things inside.Although it's quite small, it's really well-organized and cozy. As expected of Dr. Lee. He really likes neat and organized things. She was really not tired so she decided to walk outside for a stroll.However, as soon as she walked out, everyone's attention went to her, and wanted to take a peek. Everly didn't mind the constant stares and just smiled at them.Meanwhile, Everly saw a group of children playing around. She instantly walked to

    Dr. Lee called over the medical team to organize the supplies they brought over. They freed up spaces inside the tent where their medical supplies were placed. It was quite large, so all the 20 boxes were all fitted inside.Dr. Han wiped the sweat on his forehead tiredly. "Thank goodness it's the last box!" He slumped his body on the chair and drank some water.They hadn't separated the supplies but they were already tired. This celebrity singer is really something. To think that she brought all of these here by herself.Dr. Lee unbuttoned the two buttons of his polo. He's starting to feel hot and his body is already covered with sweat. Earlier, he had already removed his coat lest it gets dirty.Dr. Han threw bottled water at him which he caught easily. "We still have to separate and divide these supplies. In that way, it would be more convenient to distribute it to the villagers.""You're right, but let's take a break first. I'm already so tired. I haven't had any sleep at all since
