Yuqi's POV

3 days passed a lot faster than I thought and before I knew it, I was at the lift lobby of the building where the psychology place, or whatever it was called, was supposed to be at. 

"Is this seriously necessary?" I whispered to my assistant as we entered in the lift.

"Yes Miss Song. It is the wish of Mr. Daniel." My assistant replied as he looked at his phone, probably at whatever I thing or place I'm supposed to go after the appointment. Mr. Daniel. He is always trying to stick a foot into whatever I do. Annoying.

"Level 23." The recording of woman was played as the doors open.

One side was the entrance to a law firm, the other was probably to the psychology clinic place.

"Sit here, and wait for me." My assistant says, pointing to one of the sofas at the entrance surrounding a small round table. He walked to the reception and probably asked where my doctor was before walking down the hallway the lady was pointing at.

I could hear the whispers of people, probably the ones that work at the clinic. They were trying their best to not attract the attention to themselves. I can't imagine what it would be like if I took off my sunglasses and mask.

My assistant came back after probably 5 minutes. "You're with a young doctor. Heard she's really good at what she does. Her name is probably Dr. Jean or something." He states as he walks with me down the hallway towards the office. 

"Dr. Jean?" He asks as he knocks on the door. I didn't pay attention to the doctor as someone tapped on my shoulder. "Hi." She started breathlessly. "Your the famous singer right? The one that sang 'Fire'? Can I have your autograph?" She rambled.

"Sorry she's not." My assistant broke her off before I even got to say anything. Annoying, just like Mr. Daniel. "Why did you say that?" I asked my assistant a little too loudly. Note to self: I am a public figure, I need to think before I do anything.

"It's not Dr. Jean, it's Dr. Jeon." I heard her voice. Jeon Soyeon's voice to be exact. Dear Fate... What can I say?

I turned to face the doctor just as she looked up and our eyes made contact. I made a split second decision. "Out." I say to my assistant as I shoved him out the door and closed it behind him. I locked the door just in case he tried to come in. This was probably going result in me getting scolded later on the car but it's ok.

"I'm sorry we're not allowed to lock the door here." She stands up, walks past me and unlocks the door, allowing my assistant to rush in the immediate moment after. I don't know what Soyeon said to my assistant but it probably worked since he walked out, not without giving me a warning look. Soyeon looked gorgeous in her white buttoned up shirt, beige knee-length skirt, white heels and white doctor's coat. 

"You can take sit on the sofa." She points towards one of the corners of the big rooms. "And uh... while you're at it, you can take off your mask and sunglasses." She walked towards her table to take a notebook and a pen.

I sat down on one of the sofas and took off my sunglasses. She still doesn't know who I am. I pouted a little and let out a small sigh.

"I'm Dr. Jeon." She smiled as she sat down and opened her notebook. 

"Let's start with something easy. What's your name?" 

"Let's get straight to the topic, I don't think there is a need to know my name." 

"Ok. The person that called to make the appointment said that you have signs of depression. And why is that?" 

Depression? Who said that I have depression?

"I don't think so. From what I know, I have a really healthy mental state, not to the point of depression. I think it is possible that my management company wants me to have some kind of mental problem or something so they can stop my future events and stuff." Mr. Daniel probably did this. He didn't like me from day 1. Brenda helped me so much as my manager through the years.

"I think I have to ask you some questions and um... I will give an answer to whether you have signs of depression or not. Trust me, it will be truthful and accurate." She promised.

She went on asking me questions from what I usually would do to any kind of feelings that I have been feeling.

An hour passed by really quickly in a flash. Our conversation was broken by the knocks my assistant tapped on the door. I was asked out of the room and my assistant probably asked her about when could I make a second appointment. I walked to the lift lobby first and waited for them. My assistant came out looking furious. And that made me really happy. Karma pays. Soyeon walks behind him with a hint of a smug smile on her face. She's changed so much. From the shy timid girl 5 years ago to the brilliant doctor now. I walked into the lift and turned to face Soyeon.

"See you next week." She waved at me and gave an assuring smile.

"So, you really don't remember me? Jeon Soyeon?" I asked just as the lift doors start to close. She stood there as if she was stuck to floor.

Soyeon's POV

"So, you really don't remember me? Jeon Soyeon?" The new patient asked me as the doors of the lift started to close. I only remember that there were very few people that know me by my first name since I didn't really socialise that much before I started work.

"Dr. Jeon? Was that really Song Yuqi?" One of the interns came up to me and asked as I walked back to my office. Song Yuqi? 

"I'm sorry, what?" Song Yuqi was a name that took a little small spot in the bottom of my heart, like someone's first love would. I could feel anger heating up in me. So she could leave 5 years ago, ghost me, make me guess where she went, make me cry for a few nights and now come here and be my patient?

It's nice to meet you again, Song Yuqi.


A/N: Yuqi has like 2.23 million monthly listeners on Spotify right now and that is like 4 times more than that before 'Fire' was released. Maybe she'll win some American award for best collab or something next year. (It's my wish for Christmas)
