Venice spent most of his time in his office, in a few days he managed to finish the work of more than a week. Rain, on the other hand, felt more exhausted than ever, he didn't know what to do, he didn't even know if he was the one supposed to help Payu considering how useless his previous attempts were. He didn't only feel useless, he felt guilty too.
The psychiatrist arrived in the morning, Pete welcomed him and lead him to the office where Venice was working, Rain followed them too, wondering if the old doctor could get a different reaction from his boyfriend.
"Venice, do you have a minute?" Pete asked after knocking on the door repeatedly. He heard the rapid footsteps of his son coming closer and closer until he opened the door and leaned out while holding on the door frame.
"I'm sorry, I have a lot of things to do at the moment"
"Khun Venice, I understand that..." the doctor said slowly but Venice interrupted him immediately, his voice, his gesture, everything was rapid, quick, nervous, almost psychotic.
"You don't understand, I have to work. Why would I have time for you when I barely get to see my boyfriend during meals? I'm sorry sir, but you have to leave." Payu replied.
"But nong..." Pete said.
"There is nothing else to add to this sterile conversation. I don't have to say anything, I simply got assaulted by a maniac and I'm perfectly able to deal with it on my own. No, I don't feel dirty, nor scared nor guilty if these were your questions sir. Now, I would highly appreciate if you could let me work, I had to leave my projects behind to assist my boyfriend and now that he's alright I have to catch up. Goodbye sir" Payu said and closed the door.
"I'm very sorry sir, I... I really didn't know what else I could do. Please, tell me that there is something you can do to help him. My Venice has never been like this, I can barely recognize him and... and..." Pete stuttered but the therapist patted his shoulder and replied:
"Khun Pete, trust me, it is normal, everyone deals with traumatic events using their methods. At first they all believe that they can easily move on without any external help but in situations like this... some help is needed."
"What do you want us to do?" Pete asked
"Try to stay with him, don't put pressure on him or anything, just make sure he doesn't harm himself. Sooner or later he will feel ready to talk to me, however I can't do anything as long as he refuses to meet me. It is a long process, Khun Pete, but I can assure you that if treated in the good way, your son will recover even from this" the doctor finished and left the house.
Rain knew it was time to think about Payu, he didn't have to care about his words, he had to focus on his behavior. However, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't help but think about that part regarding leaving his work behind to assist him. He didn't mean that, right? Maybe he meant to say that but not in a bad way... or perhaps... no no, it wasn't possible, not at all. No, he meant that in a bad way... Rain was just a burden to him, he had to leave his work for a week just to stay with him, he surely hated that time, spending time with such a boring and irritating Rain.
