Yoongi the heart surgeon

Six hours into the operation, Yoongi felt his back go numb, but his hand remained steady. Jimin stood opposite him, clutching the clamp.

“Aspiration,” Yoongi said shortly, without looking up.

Jimin darted, but while draining the fluid, he touched the edge of the wound. Blood splattered onto the sterile field, and the monitor beeped more alarmingly.

“Your mother,” Yoongi breathed out, but it was almost a whisper, his fingers didn’t tremble.

“I’ll fix it,” Jimin reached for a napkin, his elbow hitting the IV stand.

Yoongi raised his head. His black eyes irritatedly raked the doctor over, and for the first time, Jimin felt afraid of him.

"Get your hands off," Yoongi hissed. "Get the fuck out of here, if you have hands growing out of your ass!"

The shift ended. Yoongi stood in the doorway, hatless now, his shirt wrinkled, and with marks from his mask on his cheeks.

"The patient is stable," Yoongi said. "I closed the sternum myself."

Jimin nodded, not looking up because his throat was tight.

Yoongi took a step and sat down on the chair opposite.

"I yelled at you in front of everyone," Yoongi said quieter. "I shouldn't have done that."

Jimin looked up. Yoongi was slouched, and it was the first time Jimin had seen him like that.

"I shouldn't have..." Yoongi paused, pinching the bridge of his nose with two fingers. "You're a good resident. I know you tried. I just worry about the patients more than anyone else's feelings."
