"Good news."

"Oh…"

"How does it look? Do you think there’s some improvement?"

At the doctor’s words, I nodded. It had been a while since I returned to Korea.

While my family was still in China, I was back here—for my regular check-up.

The state of my body, which I hadn’t been able to monitor while in China, had improved more than I expected.

‘Maybe the recent sickness was just a step back to move two steps forward?’

Encouraged by the positive results, I nodded to myself. Seeing my reaction, the doctor smiled with satisfaction.

"Are you heading back now?"
