YONGHEE :: magical kingdoms au :: fantasy, fluff

newbie medical practitioner!Yonghee x patient!reader/you

Sudden skin rashes don’t seem that daunting when the new boy at the medic shop is the shy and soft-spoken Yonghee who’s willing to help you whatever it takes.

You were frantic when you noticed a skin rash come on suddenly, accompanied by uncomfortable itching. You didn't know why it happened and what triggered it, and you didn’t know what to do about it since it had never happened before.

So after finishing for the day at the bakery, you headed to the medic shop where you usually go, run by a sister and brother duo for quite a few years now. Your mother knew their mother as they used to work together, so it went without saying that you used their services just like your parents did. You usually visited them when your parents needed some medicine, not for yourself, but this time, it was for you only.

You only needed to wait a bit, and as an elderly man came outside accompanied by a young man who helped him out, you were next. Instead of the young man leaving with him as you expected, he stayed by the threshold and looked at you.

Oh.

He was gorgeous, simply gorgeous. He had soft features that were still slightly boyish, but his jaw was defined, and you could see his muscles stretch in the tunic he wore. He had jet-black eyes matching his midnight-black locks, and you couldn’t help but notice that there was a mole under his eye, like a single star on the dark canvas of the night.

You were so mesmerised by his beauty that you barely realised that he spoke up.

“Good afternoon! Please, come inside,” the unfamiliar young man beckoned you inside with a gentle smile, but your legs didn’t move. Despite your bewitched state, you wondered if you were even in the right place because you had never seen him here.

“Excuse me, but… are you working here? I haven’t seen you here before,” you explained tentatively. As far as you knew, only Hyunsuk and his sister had been working here, and you hadn’t heard about anyone taking over the shop.

“Oh yes, I’m new here. My name is Kim Yonghee. I work alongside Hyunsuk,” he replied softly, his lips stretching into a tender smile. His smile was so pretty, so reassuring that you forgot for a few seconds that you were supposed to say something.

“Oh… good then,” you blurted out, a tad bit awkward, before walking inside the shop. It indeed looked the same with a bed, two chairs and a table beside a fireplace that was currently out of use due to the warm spring weather. There were some bottles, bowls and medical equipment on the nearby shelves, but you knew that their storage room was behind the door to the right.

You sat down in one of the chairs and Yonghee followed, so you were face-to-face which didn’t help the crazy beating of your heart. You were usually not this affected by boys around you, but he looked at you so patiently, so gently, you had a hard time formulating coherent thoughts.

“How can I help you today?” Yonghee inquired after a few seconds of silence, bringing you back to reality.

Oh right, you were actually here for a reason. You almost forgot.

“I had this sudden rash out of nowhere,” you started as you pulled up the sleeve of your dress, showing him the constellation of tiny red dots on your left and right wrists. “I don’t know why they appeared, and I don’t know what to do about them. I’ve never had anything like this before.”

“Are they itchy?” Yonghee asked as he examined the area.

“Yes, very much so,” you bobbed your head, and answered a few more of his questions regarding the food you ate that day, any plants you had come in contact with, any new clothes you tried on and such. Nothing unusual came to your mind, but he jotted down everything you said in a hefty notebook, and you replied to the best of your knowledge. Afterwards, he started preparing some kind of a cream for you, mixing things in a bowl.

When he was done, he came back to you with a small bottle and applied the cream on the affected area, massaging it into your skin in gentle circles. His touch sent pleasant shivers down your spine, but you tried your best to listen to his explanation.

“I’ve made a cream for you with aloe vera and camomile. They are anti-fungal, antibacterial ingredients and help soothe the skin in case of inflammation. We’ll wait a few minutes to see how your skin reacts to the cream, but if it doesn’t trigger an unwanted reaction, I’ll give you this bottle and you can continue applying it on your skin throughout the day. The itching should go away within a few hours, and the rash within one to two days at the latest.”

You listened to him attentively, trying to remember everything that he said. He inquired if you had any questions for now, and you shook your head. You didn’t want to sit there in utter silence while you were waiting for the cream to take its effect, so you asked him how long he had been working here. He said that it had only been a few weeks, and he had replaced Hyunsuk’s sister who had gone on to work at the palace.

Hearing that, you were a tad bit surprised, but now that you thought about it, you did hear a rumour about someone from the village who had turned out to be a magical medic, and since there weren’t a lot of medic shops - it was only this shop and a newly opened one run by a young woman -, you should have known that it concerned Hyunsuk and his sister. Since you were magic-free as others in the village, it was sometimes easy to forget that people actually had magic running in their veins in the kingdom and in neighbouring kingdoms. Magical medics were an example; they could use their special abilities to heal others, so they were exclusively working at the palace.

You did talk a bit more about how Yonghee had been working at his parents’ farm before, and how you were a baker, and you enjoyed getting to know him a whole lot. Not to mention hearing his shy little giggles and watching him with a fond smile when he covered his mouth while laughing because he was so timid.

You almost forgot why you had been there in the first place, but then, Hyunsuk came out of the storage room and put some bottles on the nearby shelf. As if woken from a stupor, you and Yonghee changed back to medic and patient, discussing the next steps since your skin didn’t react negatively to the cream.

You were a bit sad to leave the medic shop because you were just getting to know the boy better, but you knew that you would see him again because your parents needed their medicine fairly frequently. It didn’t mean that you couldn’t smile at the boy so giddily as you bid your goodbye and held the bottle of the cream close to your chest, already reminiscing about his dreamy eyes and gentle smile.

The rash went away in two days, but a week later, it came back again. You still had some of the cream Yonghee had given you, so you put some on it before visiting the medic shop again.

At first, you thought that it would be silly of you to go back when you actually had more left from the medicine Yonghee gave you, and when you still didn’t know why it happened. Then again, you thought that it was worth a try, so you went back - hoping that you would be tended to by the boy with the mole under his eye and tenderness in his smile.

Your lips curled upwards immediately when it was Yonghee who opened the door and beckoned you inside. The medic reciprocated your smile, and advised you to sit on a chair just like last time while he was inquiring about the reason behind your visit.

Hence, you explained to him that the rash came back, and Yonghee made you go through your day up until the rashes appeared, taking notes in the meantime. Then, he flipped through some pages of the notebook you had already seen last time, hummed in contemplation, then looked up at you:

“You’ve said that you’re a baker, right?”

“Yes, that’s correct.”

“Last time, you mentioned that you made a lemon tart before noticing the rash, and today, you said the same. Do you often work with lemon or did you just start using it?” Yonghee asked as he tilted his head, waiting for your answer. You pondered a bit before replying because you did use lemon before - mostly in the batter for sponge cakes and muffins -, but you didn’t usually use lemon as decoration. However, now, the lemon tart had actual lemon slices on top, something that you did arrange with your own two hands instead of using gloves.

“Oh wow, that could be it!” You exclaimed, probably awfully excited for someone who had just been told that she might be allergic to lemon, but Yonghee just giggled at your reaction, and it made everything a whole lot more reassuring.

“I’m not saying you should experiment with touching lemons after this because you probably don’t want to, but I would advise you to use gloves when doing the decorations,” he suggested gently, and you wondered if he talked to everyone like that. He was sure to be good with kids and the elderly if he used that tone with everyone. When you listened to him speak, it felt like you could tell him everything, and he would do everything in his power to help you without being judgemental.

“Thank you so much. I will definitely follow your advice,” you promised with a wide smile, your insides melting at the way he smiled back at you. Gosh, just how could anyone be this pretty? This kind? This lovely?

You paid him for the service and you were about to exit the room when he called after you:

“If I’m wrong, and it happens again, you know where to find me,” he stated, coyly scratching the back of his neck. Your heart did a little somersault at his words, and your most confident side surfaced at the possibility of him wanting to see you again, so you decided to shoot your shot.

“I work at the bakery beside the sewing shop. Now you know where to find me, too.”

You turned on your heel to avoid seeing his reaction because you were already close to combusting.

Gosh, you might need to come back for heart issues at this rate!
