ETERNAL LOVE : A LOVE STORY

After Liwie left, Xie Ming looked at the door in front of her and knocked on it. 

" Come in."

She pushed open the door hesitantly and saw Su Jin looking at her computer screen. 

" Doctor Su Jin." Xie Ming greeted her politely. 

 Su Jin looked up and was surprised to see Xie Ming standing at the door. 

She smiled awkwardly and welcomed her in the office. 

There was a long silence after Xie Ming settled down in the chair opposite to Su Jin. 

" Erm, do you want something? Tea or coffee?" Su Jin asked awkwardly. 

Xie Ming smiled and said, " No. Thank you." 

" I heard from Doctor Lu that you wanted to meet me. So I came here to see you before going back." Xie Ming said straightly as she wanted to know why she wanted to meet her. 

Su Jin pursed her lips and nodded. 

" Yes. I wanted to meet you once. But I never thought that you would come today." she was surprised and stunned at the same time. 

She was surprised that Xie Ming would come so suddenly. 

" You must have heard about the condition of that kid from Doctor Lu, right? " Su Jin held her head down as she felt awkward and embarrassed because she had said so many things to her and in the end, it was her judgment that was wrong. 

Xie Ming pursed her lips and said," Yes. He told me that he is in stage one of autism. I am glad that he was diagnosed early otherwise it would be very difficult to treat him if his condition had worsened ." 

Su Jin felt more miserable hearing her words. She has never been wrong in her life and now a person who has no medical background proved her wrong. 

" Yes. You were right. He indeed has autism. I apologize for making assumptions earlier and said so much. I am really sorry for that." 

Xie Ming looked at the strong headed girl in front of her. She never thought that Su Jin would apologize to her. But seeing her like this, she realized that she is not bad after all. 

She was just too honest and direct with her words. That's why she said everything to her rather than hiding things in her heart. 

Xie Ming shook her head and said, " It's okay. I wasn't hurt by your words. Moreover, you were right in your place as well. How can you believe in a stranger's words who has no medical background or degree? "

" It's fine. I didn't take your words to heart." Xie Ming smiled after saying her words.

Su Jin smiled and said, " Mrs. Jin, I wanted to meet you once not only because I wanted to apologize to you. But someone else wanted to meet you, that's why I wanted to ask you about it. "

Xie Ming raised his brows and asked, " Hmm? Meet me? Who?" 

" My grandfather." 

" Your grandfather? Why? I mean.. " Xie Ming was confused why doctor Su Jin's grandfather wanted to meet her.

They were not even close friends. 

Su Jin smiled seeing Xie Ming's baffled expressions, she interrupted her and said," Didn't I tell you last time when we were arguing that my grandfather is also a Chinese medicine doctor. I got the results of that kid yesterday night and when I told him everything, he said that he wanted to meet you." 

" It's been so long that he has seen anyone from the young generation to be interested in Chinese medicine. Moreover, you're not only interested in it but you have so much knowledge about it as well. "

" He also told me that it's impossible for someone who doesn't have any experience and background in medicine like you to be so good at it that you good recognize the early stage of autism in a child. Generally, even a parent cannot find any abnormalities in a child when he is in the first stage. But you discovered when you saw him only twice. " Su Jin said with admiration. 

Xie Ming was embarrassed seeing Su Jin saying all of this. 

" Ermm. Doctor Su Jin, I am not as amazing as you are saying. It was just my instinct and I was lucky that it was right and nothing else. There is no need.. " before she could complete her words and say there is no need for her to meet him, Su Jin interrupted 

" It was not an instinct Mrs. Jin. You were sure that the child has autism. You even stated all the symptoms that you noticed in him which can make him autistic. And even if that was just your instinct and you got lucky, then it takes so much experience for someone to get such instinct. " 

Xie Ming was caught off guard hearing Su Jin's words. She never thought that she could say such words. It's too direct and she felt embarrassed hearing her praises.

" Ermm.. It's really.. "

" That's why my grandfather wants to meet you. When I told him about this child's case and how you told me to check on him only after checking his pulse, without any test or anything. Since he is also a oriental Chinese doctor, I am sure you will have a good chat with him. " 

" I have some time on this Saturday, so I am planning to visit him at his clinic. If you have some time on Saturday as well, why don't you join me? I will treat you to lunch as well. "

"This way you can meet my grandfather as well and have a chat. I have sure you won't be disappointed." 

" My grandfather is quite an interesting person. " Su Jin laughed as she completed her words. 

Xie Ming pursed her lips as she was puzzled seeing the sudden change in her character. 

She never thought that Su Jin would invite her to meet her grandfather and would talk about treating her for lunch. 

" Errm…" Xie Ming confused whether she should accept her invitation or not because it's not been long since they met and their first meeting was not pleasant at all. 

" So that's final. You're coming with me to meet my grandfather on Saturday. This is my number so give me a missed call so that I can save yours as well. I will pick you up on Saturday morning to meet my grandfather." Su Jin didn't let Xie Ming finish her words and fixed the plan. 

" - _-"

Xie Ming stared at Su Jin as she was dumbfounded seeing her smile and outgoing nature. She didn't look like this when she first met her. 

….. 

After chatting for a few more minutes, Xie Ming left her room as Su Jin got a call from someone. 

When Xie Ming got out of the room, she looked at the door in daze. 

" What was that? What did just happen? I didn't even say anything and she fixed the plan?" 

Xie Ming pursed her lips and let out a chuckle. She never met someone as stubborn as Su Jin. 

She looked cold and indifferent on the surface but talking to her she realized that she has a good personality.

It's just that she has a sharp tongue. Some people can come out as rude because they cannot hide their feelings. But those people are better than those who are better at keeping things in their heart. 

Because one cannot tell what's going on in another person's mind. That's why she liked Su Jin more. 

She didn't hesitate to apologize for her behaviour.. It's easy to argue and misunderstand someone but it's definitely not easy to apologise for one's own mistakes.
