Birth of a Beauty

In XXXXXX Hospital;

Mo Xung who was lying in bed with his right leg and forehead covered with bandage slowly opened his eyes. It took some time for him to adjust his blurry vision.

"Mo Xung..Mo Xung, Thank god You finally are awake. Do you still feel hurt somewhere? Lu San stay with him, I will go inform the doctor." Kim Taejin said as he saw Mo Xung opening his eyes after 3 hours of his unconscious.

Lu San shook his head ", No teacher, You stay with him and i will go to inform the doctor." Seeing Taejin nod his head, Lu San left the room. As other members were waiting outside, Taejin and Mo Xung were the only one in the room.

Mo Xung moved a little then suddenly he felt a sharp pain in his leg. He hissed in pain making Taejin stop him from moving. "Don't move, you have quite badly sprained your leg. It needs some to heal. So, be good and rest properly."

"But, The match-" As soon as Mo Xung mentioned match, Taejin interrupted while he managing the medicines " Don't mention that for now. The top priority is your health. As I said you need to rest, then as a student you must obey your teacher's instructions. Got it?"

After hearing that, Mo Xung became dazed for a while. He felt somehow bad that he couldn't play in tomorrow's finale match as his injury looked like it wouldn't be healed in one or two days of time.

. Maybe he wouldn't be able to play in national game as well in case if their school won the finale. But more than that he felt more awful thinking that He destroyed the trust Taejin had for him. Taejin wanted him to make him proud but it wasn't even the finale, yet he injured his leg making him incapable of playing basketball.

Mo Xung had really arrogant personality and was always a proud boy but today he looked like a depressed chicken. He never cried before even when his mother left him, he didn't cry that time. But today, Mo Xung felt his heart crying, his eyes watered automatically.

Not hearing any responses from Mo Xung, Taejin looked at him. He saw Mo Xung's red and watery eyes which made him stunned. It took him some time to understand Mo Xung's feelings.

He sighed softly and came closer. He hugged him and patted lightly at his back as he spoke " It's okay. I won't say 'real man don't cry', it's completely okay to feel weak sometime. But you have to stay strong. You have still way long road in front of you. You will get many chances in the future. Cheer up."

Memories from morning flashed crystal clear in Mo Xung's mind, when Taejin hugged him. 'Only if you win the national match, you will be able to get this reward. You haven't even played the finals yet you are so jumpy with excitement.' 'I promise that you will hug me yourself one day.'

That hit him quite hard as the feeling of crying bursted. Mo Xung cried loudly as he hugged him tightly. Mo Xung really didn't know how to cry, So he cried really ugly making Taejin mouth twitched.

'I guess i should've just strictly said, no no ordered, him not to cry. He wouldn't have cried like this. Oh my god, who cries like this. This way he is gonna alarm the whole hospital.' Thinking that Taejin hurriedly released himself from his embrace as he

placed his hands on Mo Xung's mouth.

"Shh.. Why are you crying like a dying duck?" Kim Taejin said as he looked at the innocent looking Mo Xung. Mo Xung also didn't have any idea why he had sudden bizarre mental breakdown just now. But now he felt way much better as he let his stifled emotions through those ugly cries and tears. Lu San who was coming with doctor towards Mo Xung's room, heard a loud cry. He exchanged looks with the doctor.

They dashed hurriedly to his room only to see the scene of Taejin covering Mo Xung's mouth. Lu San asked "What happened? I heard someone's loud cry just now and-" When he was going to continue with his words, he saw tears in Mo Xung's red eyes.

Lu San's eyes grew big in shock. "Oh my, Xung you cried? I mean for real the great Mo Xung is shedding tears just now and i guess the loud cry..Pftt Hahaha" Lu San began to laugh thinking Mo Xung's expression when he ugly cried.

Taejin took back his hand and stood up. "Okay, stop all this. Doctor, Mo Xung is awake. When will he be able to recover completely?" He asked looking at the doctor.

The doctor spoke " I will examine him first then tell you about it in short time. "When they were conversing, Mo Xung quickly wiped his tears and returned back to his cold look. Lu San chuckled glancing at his dear bestfriend's childish behaviour.

The doctor examined Mo Xung's forehead and leg's injuries and asked some questions to Mo Xung before calling Taejin in his office for discussion. Just after Taejin left, Someone entered Mo Xung's room. "Nanny Sui.." Mo Xung said as soon as he recognized the person who just entered the room.0000☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
