All of a sudden my breathing was getting shallower. It felt suffocating to act like everything was fine when it wasn't.
I start thinking back to the bad memories of my birthday. Would none of this happen if I decided to just spend my birthday at home like a normal person?

I sit down, my throat hurt, my chest felt like someone was stabbing it, it became harder to breathe. I struggled to reach for Nanami san who was busy attending a call, facing the other side.

Was this a panic attack? Anxiety attack?Or a heart attack? I don't know it hurts more than I could ever have imagined

I close my eyes. In an attempt to calm myself, I try to slow down my breathing.

Nanami san turns around and finally sees me.

"Y/n!?"

He instantly drops his phone and bends down, while trying not to panic he brushes my hair aside placing his hand on my forehead checking my temperature. After seeing it was normal he reaches for my wrist and checks my pulse. He then looks at me clenching my shirt tightly and places his hand on top of mine. Gently caressing it while moving it, making me loosen my grip.

"Y/n calm down. I'm here for you, with you. Tell me how do you feel? Where exactly does it hurt?"

"In. . .my chest and my throat. I-It feels like someone is crushing it. It hurts. . . Nanami san. . . it hurts so much."

He seemed to get the idea.

"I understand. Please forgive me for what I'm about to do."

He removes his coat and places it on me, picking me up. Then sit down, placing me in his lap. He supported my back with one hand and my feet with the other. Allowing me to lean on his chest. Like a baby. Was this some sick joke of his?

"Nanami san what are you-"

"I'm almost sure that it is a panic attack, Y/n. Please excuse my discourtesy. I just want to help you relax."

He only wants to help me. And look at me, getting mad at him for no reason. I'm so fucking dumb for doubting him. He would never harm me. That's just how he is. How did I even think I deserve a man as good as him?
