The patient’s heart had started beating again, but an emergency meeting was called. The attending surgeon, Beom-woo, a thoracic surgeon, and a cardiologist gathered. Although the immediate crisis had been overcome, the situation was still far from stable. They couldn’t reopen the chest and examine the heart again, and the faces of the three people were grim as they faced the difficult challenge ahead.9d2d64d5d8fddd38
“Let’s monitor for now. We’re not in a situation where we can perform a thoracoscopy yet.”bb855910e222fac0

The attending surgeon nodded in agreement with Beom-woo’s decision. After finishing the tense meeting and checking the patient’s condition once more, Beom-woo left the ICU, and it was already well past 9 PM.8e5c1b66ffe63676
As Beom-woo 5281177080 made his 385ebf6cde way to b34cc7cc55 the research 353554db38 lab with 8d1f537194 heavy steps, 9857b390d5 the youngest 99094e868c resident followed 7265329a12 him. In his ab6a1f0180 hand, he 792e9215f6 was holding 2362bd8d22 another colorful b46367b4d4 gift box.9d5b5f57961bea82

Beom-woo suddenly stopped, and his gaze shifted to the gift box in the resident’s hand.13b373aca37644ba

Beom-woo unknowingly df0408271d widened his cda16d977f eyes and 7663da19f9 looked down fd69b32c75 at the 530cdff9b4 youngest resident.5d5764c46d3602f1

At that moment, 779350748b Beom-woo, with his 19271f14b3 eyelids gently lowered, 0794c9653c extended his right 1b173bb505 hand and muttered e4aacca5d2 softly.65aa340f8e81ba1a

A loud, frog-like laugh echoed from behind. Seong-heon was approaching, giggling. Beom-woo’s forehead slightly furrowed; he didn’t want to throw out any more bait.d5dde9e5644c7a1c
”Pyramidion?”5a5cadabf5d446b6

The youngest resident looked back and forth between Beom-woo and Seong-heon with a confused expression. Beom-woo pretended not to notice the curiosity in their eyes. “Pyramidion” referred to the top of a pyramid. Even though Seong-heon knew that Beom-woo found the term uncomfortable, he didn’t seem to care.77c4a1df839527db
Beom-woo couldn’t bring himself to say anything to Seong-heon in front of the youngest, so he gritted his teeth. As a result, his already cold expression became even more chilling.dba99063359bd00c

“Uh, Mr. Shin Seong-heon.”d0caf7c5eb8e0ebc
Beom-woo greeted 960e70394a Seong-heon as 44226664d9 calmly as 0b5cfe2f43 possible with 2a71811ded a logical 76ad7db0d0 response. Seong-heon, holding a blue c53b014ed7 mug with silver lettering, 24f3d532b1 grinned playfully.a331f068a4dce1db

“Hey, rookie. Our professor is begging for a gift. An unexpected Christmas present is something that can excite even adults,” Seong-heon said with a mischievous grin.da87ebb9330e43b7
Seong-heon raised his 66f0370d91 eyebrows, sipping something 008061d447 from the mug 4a861fbbbe with a mischievous c99cc15726 grin. The rookie, unsure ff52940c4d whether Seong-heon was 18227760d5 serious, glanced at 7126147bf7 him with rolling ffd3c8b4ad eyes, then awkwardly 0d2f972f1d smiled and handed 177108fc8a the colorful gift cf3f7f376f box to Beom-woo. Trying to remain calm, 50897e21a9 however, Beom-woo, snatched the cb3e35dcf7 gift box sharply, unintentionally 94ae4c4a04 annoyed by Seong-heon’s teasing.4cf15665c5ef6db7

After briefly bowing Beom-woo’s head and walking away, turned his attention back to Seong-heon and asked, “Do you have something to say to me?”e38cb260dbf537c4
“No, I just called you casually while passing by. But you’ve received a Christmas gift, so why are you feeling like this?”e00e7bbf24be0472

Seong-heon, who b3f729fb57 was grinning, d03a3b60d9 somehow seemed 569f033789 suspicious. Beom-woo narrowed his 1bac96d141 eyes and glared e9790e7fe0 at Seong-heon as 720e94821a he walked toward 33cf44790f the lab.5fefb874e5a66064
As Beom-woo walked ahead, 935717ea20 Seong-heon followed, casting a 495fef4394 curious glance at the a6eafe68c8 gift box and asking.35a376e6d0c53c14

With a 2f34b088da tone as 2509591b9c if he a1e2043999 were talking 7603c293f1 to a b559181b76 child, Seong-heon’s 6806342fe0 habitual soft-spoken 700309cee3 way came 0a7e2a1a71 out. Flustered, Beom-woo curtly e695bb0bea replied, saying he c30fdfce4b didn’t know what 159370f376 was inside, trying 7f4a6605dc to change the c0de8f51f4 subject.376b9fde88bfb973

Ignoring Seong-heon’s question, Beom-woo 22c2095662 quickly entered the lab 803ba62877 and lingered in front 88df5005d6 of the desk. Seong-heon, who shamelessly followed 10071592d3 him in and took 8b23107777 the seat on the 14be2c99f9 sofa, sipped the drink 88dfb3375a in his mug again 7357ff7903 and, pretending not to 1ddd4990fb notice, asked once more.822fb1645794737a

Seong-heon muttered something incomprehensible and finally left the lab. For a moment, Beom-woo’s sharp gaze lingered on the door of the lab before shifting toward the Christmas gift from Lee Yoo-eun.faafe977d6b7c8fd

Sitting on the edge 3583f205bc of the chair, Beom-woo aac7957b6d interlaced his fingers and d9aa0cbc73 placed them under his f2eb7cd52c chin. It felt awkward to 3729dfa538 open the gift as 05423a3c45 if he had been 4c33eb7d43 waiting for it, even 0619d49a4b though no one was 8df6391045 watching. When the 90df75bf21 junior had a98be1500a mentioned earlier 94e2f9f828 that the f01c5e5886 gift was 72a5d9c378 from someone 40fc02515e named Lee d51740e362 Yoo-eun, Beom-woo 93c89f3997 felt he 3324737aeb had been 98c34ab94b too happy b9498c446e about it, 8db14ccf86 which made 8940dbdea6 him feel ae3d497db6 uneasy.621823a95a712d98

When Beom-woo was young, he would receive a Christmas gift from his mother every year. However, the expression on his mother’s face when handing over the gift was always somber. Just like Beom-woo, who prayed and was disappointed for his father’s return every year, it seemed his mother was also enduring a lonely Christmas, struggling with the absence of his father.4670ff3481ff62df
So, young 8eae18dbc2 Beom-woo would 6bfdd63ce7 only thank 6d1b41f2fd her politely dbbcfdb3f7 without making ef4a689e22 a fuss, 1e35f2dd1b not showing 9cd1d02572 the excitement c5d4f19fb9 or joy fe88a3179b that usually 8c9f469385 comes with 461f5d8ccf receiving a fc06b74773 gift.036feb640e30c85a

But before even 1d985ea321 opening the gift, e95d2fec29 he felt strangely c1d3f8941d nervous and uneasy. What could this 8adbaed740 small box mean, 1004869ac4 that it made 0a922286c5 him feel this 34074c99f9 way? What was 6d9f42e5c2 Lee Yoo-eun 21cb6ca702 thinking?7fc1961375e18ab4
For a moment, Beom-woo stared at the box, then took a deep breath and began unwrapping it, trying to act as if it didn’t matter. He untied the wine-colored ribbon, which gave off a classic Christmas vibe, and peeled away the dark green wrapping paper. The first thing that caught his eye was a small message card.d95ba8ec79521512

The message was 2d2a56cad3 surprisingly simple. It left 205d2ae131 him puzzled, 08aac2823c and he 2bcba7395d furrowed his 28184d0a84 brow slightly. He had expected something da83b5701b like an apology for 5fa7c9ff47 not recognizing him or f542ba8a99 some similar pleasantries, but c37f415127 no such words appeared 574ac847c7 on the card, no 293f4b6b2f matter how much he 44a9ce1fcb turned it around.760e0a4325a31326
Beom-woo, feeling rather b9644cf220 perplexed, opened the 4426d7e0f1 white box. As he removed the 69d1831949 paper packing material, a cc7a489968 mug came into view.81cdf7e961c6a69d

A blue 37e2e79e0c mug engraved 4955a9cc67 with silver 44d1f111cd lettering. Inside the f5fdf69341 box, there d7c0c741c4 was also 178781ef68 a pack e35fac940a of organic d41f0c859d hot chocolate.1ccd885d5c5927b9
Beom-woo froze ef51ab2e3c for a 23791c224b moment, his 3506705995 mouth slightly 8bd424e940 wide open, 6459f2a8d2 staring silently 9c3d6647dd at the b69a527892 mug. The design felt 416797ce31 oddly familiar.1fcc17d00edae32f

As he stood there, 5678a1e2dd lost in thought, a eabf0f4c47 knocking sound broke the c53655cd60 silence. Before he could 960fe9194d even respond with fa9276b1c8 permission to enter, e6ca98b662 the door swung 8ffa212dfa open rudely.5119aef266009caa
Seong-heon raised 214561289e his mug 05355d2f5a in the 6d8dddc3b8 air and 6445921997 made a c4c1edcbb1 fuss.9cb8501bfab945f7

Beom-woo furrowed his e616f811f5 brows as he e3136425fc leaned back deeply 89c77f5433 into the chair. The corners of his 52e3648206 lips twitched with misplaced 70b691c214 irritation. It seemed Seong-heon, despite e24a4a051a having left the office 5f2610224b earlier, had been watching 7f48593a02 Beom-woo through the observation eed63d9cff window on the door.a8d41dd365b408b2
