Duyon's POV

I walked into Ton's office. I knocked on his door. ''Come in'' He said in his professional work voice. I opened his door and stepped inside. His face was full of surprise and shock. I have not made an appointment with him and I always do that in advance. Today I decided to go to him to talk about my behavioral problems that suddenly showed up, which is troubling my work.

''What's wrong?'' He asked me in a worried tone when he saw that I sat down on the other side of his desk, so we were face to face.

''I'm sorry that I didn't make an appointment with you but I need to talk to you'' I told him in a serious tone before grabbing the side of my head. Since the incident from four days ago, I am only experiencing extreme headaches and mood swings at work and home. Luckily Blaze is working and sleeping in his studio. Because if he was home, we would definitely have some kind of fight or argument, because of the state I am in right now.

I even pushed Kei at work because he told me that I've changed since the time I was attacked by Leo. But he doesn't know that I planned that attack in order to hurt Leo real bad.

''DUYON!'' Ton called out in a hard tone while raising his voice at me. ''Yeah, what's the matter?'' I asked him taken back by his attitude. He never raised his voice at me.

''I've called you several times but you weren't answering me!'' He said in a calm tone when he saw how much in shock I was with his attitude change.

''Sorry, I am not myself these days'' I told him while avoiding his stares. He stood up and walked to the door. I knew he wasn't having any of it. He's not willing to talk to me and I understand that because of how I am acting.

He opened the door and left the room. I grabbed my head with both my hands before looking at the ground. I am really bothering him and it's giving me more headaches than I already have. Why can't I fix my own damn problems instead of relying on others?

After two minutes of waiting for him to come back, I stood up from my seat and walked to the door. He even doesn't want to come back to his own office while me being in here. I need to stop coming here.

I opened the door to leave the room, but Ton stood in front of me with a worried look on his face. He had a jacket and two cups of tea in his hands. ''Go back to your spot. We're not done talking yet'' He said in a calm tone when entering the room and locking the door so no one was able to enter his office.

I did was he told me. ''You thought that I've left you alone and didn't want to talk to you. But I noticed you came only wearing a light shirt with no jacket on, it cold outside. How did you manage to come in here without no jacket on?'' He asked me in a hard tone before giving me his own jacket to wear.

''I'm sorry but my mind is everywhere'' I told him hoping he would buy my answer. He frowned a little before closing his laptop and staring me up and down. ''I can feel something really bad happened at work'' He told me in a serious tone. I gave him a little smile as a response before closing my eyes in order to keep myself calm and collect while explaining the story from the mental institution.

''Are you serious?!" He asked me in disbelieve. I opened my eyes and saw his shocked expression looking down at me. He already stood up from his seat and was walking back and forth while keeping a straight face. But I knew he was very disappointed by my actions.
