As Lee Know was discharged from the hospital that night, Eunwoo insisted on taking him back to his place instead of the dorm. Lee Know, feeling grateful for the offer, agreed, though he couldn't help but feel a twinge of discomfort at the thought of imposing on Eunwoo.
Once they arrived, Lee Know expressed his desire to take a bath, but Eunwoo reminded him that his bandage couldn't get wet yet. Instead, Eunwoo handed him a wet towel to wipe himself down for the time being. As Lee Know finished, he found Eunwoo waiting for him with a bowl of soup in hand.
"Hyung!" Lee Know exclaimed mischievously, a playful glint in his eyes. "Let's go and have some tteokbokki!" he suggested, a hopeful smile on his lips.
Eunwoo couldn't help but smile at Lee Know's enthusiasm. "We can, but this soup is needed for you to get well. Finish it, and then maybe we can go out for some tteokbokki," Eunwoo replied gently, his voice laced with warmth.
With a resigned sigh, Lee Know accepted the bowl from Eunwoo, though he couldn't hide his reluctance. It took him nearly half an hour to finish the bland soup, but Eunwoo remained by his side the entire time, offering words of encouragement and support.
As Lee Know finally finished the last spoonful, he struck a victorious pose, a playful grin spreading across his face. "I've ordered the food, including some spicy chicken!" Eunwoo announced as he got up from his seat.
"Wow, coming to your place was the best decision after all," Lee Know remarked, his eyes sparkling with anticipation. With a cute waddle, he made his way to the living room, plopping down onto the couch and turning on some random anime.
Eunwoo couldn't help but watch him fondly, marveling at how happy and carefree Lee Know seemed in that moment. It was hard to believe that just the night before, he had been on the brink of taking his own life. Eunwoo sighed, feeling a mix of emotions wash over him.
Though Lee Know was excited about the food, he struggled to eat much and soon succumbed to the drowsiness brought on by his medication. With a gentle smile, Eunwoo carried him to the bedroom and covered him with a blanket.
The next morning dawned with a sense of apprehension for Lee Know as he found himself reluctantly accompanying Eunwoo to meet with a psychologist. Despite his protests, Eunwoo remained resolute, adamant that it was crucial for Lee Know's well-being.
As they made their way to the car, Lee Know halted abruptly, his expression pleading. "Hyung, I'm telling you I'm fine! Please!" he implored, his voice tinged with desperation.
Eunwoo's response, however, stopped Lee Know in his tracks. "I'm scared, Minho," Eunwoo confessed softly, his words heavy with worry and fear.
"I will leave tomorrow. and i won't be able to take care of you for few more months. I feel scared when you just smile like nothing happened. I am scared that I will not be able to save you the next time."
Lee Know felt a pang of guilt and concern wash over him at the vulnerability in Eunwoo's voice.
With a heavy sigh, Lee Know nodded in reluctant agreement, realizing the depth of Eunwoo's concern for him. He couldn't bear to see Eunwoo worried like this, knowing that his own struggles were causing his friend so much anguish.
The drive to the psychologist's office was filled with tense silence, each moment weighed down by the weight of unspoken fears and uncertainties. Lee Know's heart hammered in his chest as they approached their destination, his mind racing with a thousand thoughts and worries.
Upon arriving, they were greeted by a kind-faced psychologist who welcomed them into the cozy office. As Lee Know settled into the chair opposite the doctor, he couldn't help but feel a surge of apprehension coursing through him.
The psychologist listened attentively as Lee Know poured out his thoughts and feelings, offering gentle guidance and support along the way. They discussed the root causes of Lee Know's struggles, exploring the depths of his depression and anxiety with compassion and understanding.
"Do you often feel overwhelmed by your emotions, Minho?" the psychologist inquired, their voice calm and soothing.
Lee Know hesitated for a moment before nodding slowly. "Yeah, it's like...I'm drowning in a sea of darkness, and I can't find a way out," he admitted, his voice barely above a whisper.
The psychologist nodded in understanding, offering words of validation and empathy. "It's normal to feel overwhelmed at times, but remember that you're not alone in this journey. We're here to help you navigate through the darkness and find your way to the light."
After the session, the psychologist prescribed some medication to help alleviate Lee Know's symptoms and recommended regular therapy sessions to provide ongoing support and guidance. Despite his initial apprehension, Lee Know felt a glimmer of hope stirring within him, knowing that he had taken the first step towards healing and recovery.
As Lee Know and Eunwoo strolled through the park, the tranquility of their surroundings seemed to mirror the calmness that had settled between them. Breaking the silence, Eunwoo spoke softly, his words carrying a weight of sincerity and vulnerability.
"I know it's too soon, but I don't want to wait anymore," Eunwoo began, his voice filled with determination. "I'm leaving tomorrow, and I can't leave without telling you this."
Lee Know listened intently, his heart beating a little faster as he awaited Eunwoo's next words.
"I love you," Eunwoo confessed, his words hanging in the air like a promise of forever. "I want us to get married one day in a nice, small chapel. I'll wear a black suit, and you'll wear a white suit," he continued, painting a picture of a future filled with love and commitment.
Lee Know looked up in surprise, his eyes widening at the unexpected declaration of love. His heart swelled with emotion, the weight of Eunwoo's words settling deep within him.
"But I don't want you to give me an answer right now," Eunwoo added, his voice gentle yet resolute. "Wait until I come back. I'll propose to you the way you deserve."
With a tender gesture, Eunwoo kneeled down slightly to match Lee Know's height, his lips meeting Lee Know's in a gentle kiss that spoke volumes of love and devotion.
In that moment, amidst the tranquil beauty of the park, Lee Know felt a warmth spread through him, filling him with a sense of hope and possibility for the future that lay ahead. And as they continued their walk, hand in hand, Lee Know couldn't help but feel a renewed sense of optimism blooming within his heart.
