What the fuck!!!!

Dissociative identity disorder!!!

As soon as I heard this I felt like losing my mind.

If it is a kind of joke then I am not gonna spare them.

I freaked out, "James don't speak the things about which you don't know. Do you even have an idea what are you saying?"

He replied, "Calm down Jennie. Sit down first, we will explain you everything. Just listen to me carefully."

Here my whole world seemed like drowning and he want me to calm down.

Aiden added ,"Jennie please just sit for once, we will tell you everything."

I couldn't believe what game my fate was playing with me.
I was holding back my tears and waiting for James and Aiden to stop their joke and tell me that it is not true.

I was about to say ,when suddenly Alex also came inside. As soon as I saw him , I rushed to him and hugged him tightly and cried my heart out.
He held me and asked while stroking my hairs ,"What did he do Jennie? Did he hit you?"

I said while crying, "T-they a-a are s-sayin that h-he has d-dissociative identity D-disorder. It i-is a l-lie. T-tell them to s-stop l-laying."
And started I bawling again.

I don't know why destiny is playing with me now.
Was all that happened wiht me since my childhood wasn't enough that this bomb also burst out in my life.

Alex said, "Just sit down first. You need to calm down."
Alex made me sit on a chair and gave me a glass of water .
While I drank the water while Aiden and James lifted Ryan started taking him out of the room.
Alex asked him,"Where are you taking him?"

He replied, "Home."

Alex said ,"Jennie will also come with us to your house, we can't leave her here alone", he turned to me and said ,"Jennie please come with us, we will tell you everything thoroughly. "

I nodded.
I didn't had the energy to argue with them now, I just want to know the truth.
And moreover I can trust Alex.
There has built a kind of bond between us because of which I trust him. I can rely on him.
I tried to relax my mind and went with them.

It was nearly midnight .
I don't know how they managed to come inside the main gate at this time.

But I don't want to think about all this .
I just want to know Ryan's truth.
And I hope that whatever James said would be a lie.

I sat with Alex in his car while Aiden and James took Ryan with him in their car.

Within 15 minutes, we reached to their apartment .
Aiden and James carried Ryan to his room and Alex led me inside the house into guest room.

As soon as we entered the room , I asked ,"Alex please tell me the truth,  my heart is sinking at every passing second. You don't know what I am feeling at this time. Please tell me."

Suddenly the door opened and James and Aiden entered the room.

Alex said ,"Jennie the day when we weren't in the college, that day we went to a doctor, who helped Ryan with his depression. When we told him about his this behavioural changes and about what you told us, he said that Ryan might be suffering from Dissociative Identity Disorder. It is a mental disorder in which a person forms distinct identities and swap between them unknowingly. In his case the reason must be you. He found a kind of connection with you or something similar to his old girlfriend but he couldn't accept it in his real life so his mind formed another identity in which he loves you like he used to do to his old girlfriend. But in his real life he is not ready to accept that."

An involuntary voice came from my mouth,"This can't be true. He couldn't ....no....."

I didn't know how to react . I lost my words. I felt like air choking my wind pipe and I would lose my breathe anytime. All the air in that room felt like disappearing.

Aiden came towards me and said ,"Jennie it is hard for him too. He is in a fight against his own emotions. Please save him, otherwise he won't be able to survive. We have seen him the days when you weren't here. He stopped eating properly and merely slept and he didn't even knew the reason for his such behaviour. He is suffering a lot and only you can save him. Please save my brother. "

Alex said ,"Yes Jennie, I have seen him suffer a lot but after he started seeing you I have observed him smiling to himself when he is alone. Please help him."

I was so perplexed. My whole life had turned upside down in front of my eyes. The person who is so important for me doesn't even like me in his real life. What kind of dual life we are living . But I felt a kind of sympathy for Ryan. The guy who seems so cool and tough to others is actually so weak inside.
Who would have imagined that he would be suffering from such a serious mental illness.

And I was making my own stupid theories that he might have a twin brother and all.

But he is suffering a lot.
He is living two lives and doesn't even know what he wants.
I can't let him suffer.
I care for him.
I can't see him like this.

I asked in a shaky voice ,"H-how can I-I help him?"

Aiden said ,"Tomorrow we will go to the doctor, you also come with us ,he will explain you everything."

I replied, "Okay."

Aiden said ,"Thank you so much Jennie. I am so grateful to you that you agreed to help him. I really owe you."

I replied, "I can't let him suffer Aiden. He is important for me too."

Alex said ,"Okay, then tomorrow at 10 am we will go to meet the doctor, Ryan will be normal by tomorrow. Jennie don't come out of this room until he leave for the college, otherwise he will freak out. Okay?"

I nodded.

Alex gave me a good night hug and they all left the room.

I laid on the bed and thought about how my simple and sorted life got tangled in this messed up situation and slowly I kept sticking deep into it, and now there is no way to get out of it now.
Now I am caught in his chaos and my heart wouldn't give me permission to just run away from him while leaving him to suffer. I can't let him suffer.
Now my stupid and fragile heart is bound with him and I don't know what it would make me do to drag him out of the darkness. I don't know whether I would be able to drag him out of the darkness or I will lost myself in the process .

I just know that however the situation will be , I will never leave his side and together we will get a way through this darkness.
