CHAPTER XIV - BE MY DISTRACTION

"Ms Lee, you can be discharged today however I'd keep an eye on your health condition as it will now take maybe another two or three years for your lungs to heal." My mood had gone from happy, straight down to sad. I spent so many years taking care of my lungs so it would fully heal this year but now another two to three years would be added to that. What a waste of years.

"Ms Lee, when was the last time you hand treatment for your lungs?" The doctor put down his clipboard, "My last treatment session was a month ago. I think my next treatment will be a few days after returning to Seoul." The doctor nodded and right at that moment Sunghoon came into the room.

"Okay then. I will prescribe some pills for you to take until your next treatment session. You must speak to your doctor about your condition and tell them everything that may have worsened it." He handed me a few papers addressing my lung condition and told me to read over them.

"What happened? Is it good news or bad?" The doctor left the room and Sunghoon sat at the end of my bed. I remained silent just spacing out. Two to three years. I wanted to cry, but not in front of him. I didn't want to look weak and vulnerable and I definitely didn't want him to pity me.

"Bunny? Is everything okay?" I cleared my throat and blinked a few times, attempting to hide my teary eyes, "Yeah, everything fine." At that moment I felt myself break down. Lately, I've been getting too involved in shit that has ended up making my lung condition worse by the second. I couldn't hold it in any longer and let my tears fall down my face.

It's always easy to lie that you're 'doing good' or 'doing great' but when you're world is falling apart you think you can say, 'I'm fine' or 'I'm okay without revealing your cracks but that isn't possible and then you just let it show.

I felt pathetic crying in front of him but he didn't do anything he just stood there for a while watching me cry. "You didn't have to hold it all in, you could've told me you know." I just looked down at my fingers tangled with each other. He wrapped his arm around my figure and with his other hand he tangled his fingers in mine. "It got worse didn't it."

I just kept crying without saying a word. I didn't know what to say. I didn't want to say anything. I was just really tired. Tired of everything. Carrying this condition, not being able to live a normal life and having everyone pity me for it felt worse than a million wounds. Sunghoon understood what I felt and just stayed still not saying or doing anything. When I noticed that he was wearing expensive clothing and I was staining it with my tears, I gently pushed him off me.
