3. Be friends

"Ah! I don't suppose you know me. Right. I guess I should tell you why I'm here in the first place"

Jimin said smoothly before proceeding to speak further.

" So...I actually am a patient here too. And I got to learn about you from a nurse. She talks about you so much. So I thought I'll see you myself "

He finished off with a grin. The thing you noticed until now was that he smiles.A Lot. and you don't complain because his smile is really so pretty and it kinda looks cute.

But one thing was sure bothering you that if he is a patient too then how is he smiling like that and how does he looks so happy as if he wasn't ill at all.

Because knowing how if feels to be sick for a long time you surely knew a thing that the person can never be happy if they are living with an illness for years.

She never communicated with anyone in the hospital. It was just a particular nurse that she got close to. She was like a mother to her by now. She was looking after her since she got admitted in the hospital.

She didn't say anything so jimin continued to speak.

" So... I was thinking if we could you know... be friends and talk so like we can spend our time happily. Besides I don't see you talking to anyone here often."

He said a little hesitantly. It was the first time he sounded nervous since he came. On the other side she was really stunned after knowing that he wanted to be friends with her.

Living here for more than two years now , she never really thought of talking to someone let alone making a friend. Because simply she didn't even want to live. She was just breathing but not actually living.

She remembered coming here and having no hopes to live anymore.
She remembered how she felt so useless. She still does.

Now all those past memories came back in her mind which she seemed to forget about just some moments ago. It all flashed in her mind. Again.

She chuckled dryly. And said,

"What would you do after making a lifeless girl your friend?"
" you really shouldn't talk to me Park Jimin-ssi"

He frowned a little at her words but didn't lose hope. He said once again,

" But I just wanted to be friends. There's nothing wrong in making a new friend, right?"

She really wanted to be free. From all the chaos. All the sufferings. So she ignored him thinking he would go away if she didn't talked to him. But he didn't. He stayed. A little longer. Then he said,

"Ah! It's okay if you don't want to talk right now. I'll see you next time."

Saying this with a toothy grin he got from the bench and went away.

"Huh, he still thinks I'll talk to him again?!" She said to herself soon after he disappeared from her sight followed by an half-hearted chuckle.

But she didn't know somewhere behind the trees, he stood there looking at her for a while saying,

" well let's see how we become friends."

Soon he went back to his hospital room. And she also made her way towards her room still thinking about the strange conversation she had with a stranger just now.

It was until her nurse came to her for her daily check up and she got occupied in those things.
