Chapter 34

Dec 15, 2015

"What are you doing here this early?"

"I"m picking you up.. aren't you supposed to be in the hospital?"

Baekhyun asked as soon as Taeyeon approached him at the hotel lobby. Taeyeon just sighed, remembering her schedule today with Boa.

"Can I not go there? Can you drop me at Hyoyeon's?" Taeyeon asked or more like pleaded. She really hated hospitals, it makes her feel nauseous and now she have to go and stay there for like half of the day.

"Taeyeon this is for you.. I don't know what your reason is for not wanting to go there but please don't give up this early. I'm here.." Baekhyun said woth a pleading voice. He hated it, he hated the tone of Taeyeon's voice right now.

It isn't hard to do it right? Go to the hospital and run some tests, they could find a way to cure her, he knows that.

"I'm sorry.. I just don't know what to do" Taeyeon said before she heaved a sigh. A troubled sigh.

"I want the old Taeyeon back.." Baekhyun suddenly said while looking straight into Taeyeon's eyes, sensing it, Taeyeon lifted her gaze up and stared straight into his eyes.

"What do you mean?" Taeyeon asked not catching anything what Baekhyun meant. Baekhyun gave her a small smile before tucking some strands of her hair behind her ear.

"I said I want the old you back.. the outgoing, happy and laidback girl I met before.. smile like nothing's wrong please.. for me.." Baekhyun begged and Taeyeon smiled before giving him a nod making Baekhyun smile too.

"That's it.. that's the smile I want to see" Baekhyun said before engulfing her into a hug. Taeyeon just breathed deeply, maybe she really needs him.
Maybe having him by her side all throughout is not bad at all.
"Now, let me drop you by at the hospital. I'll just come by there after my work, is it okay?" Baekhyun asked after breaking their hug. Taeyeon just smiled before giving him a nod.
"Let's go.." Baekhyun said before taking Taeyeon's hand.

"You take care.. I'll be here later" Baekhyun said as soon as they got off the car, they just arrived at the hospital and Baekhyun have to go to work. Taeyeon stood at the hospital's entrance and gave him a reassuring smile.

"Alright.. Boa unnie's already waiting for me. Focus on your work.." Taeyeon said before lightly kissing Baekhyun's cheek. Baekhyun, on the other hand, smiled before giving him a nod.

"I will.. take care of yourself alright? Don't starve and eat on time" Baekhyun adviced and Taeyeon nodded while chuckling with all of his commands.

"Alright.. mister. I will, you too" Taeyeon said before playfully and lightly pushing Baekhyun away motioning him to go or else he'll be late.

"Bye~" Baekhyun said before getting in his car and drove off. Taeyeon just smiled, maybe it wasn't bad to smile and be positive after all.
Especially when she got Baekhyun.

"So.. he's your boyfriend?"
A voice interrupted Taeyeon's chain of thoughts. She looked sideways and saw Boa standing beside her while smiling.

"No.. not yet" Taeyeon said and Boa made an 'o' sign with her mouth. Taeyeon just smile although she can't deny the fact that she likes it especially when people mistaken them as a couple.

"Oh.. I thought he already is. Yesterday he's here looking for you" Boa said and Taeyeon chuckled before slowly shaking her head. She cannot think of how he managed to make her say yes to still give their relationship a chance.

"Not yet unnie.. but I will in the right time" Taeyeon said and Boa nodded before chuckling. "Let's go inside.." Boa said before leading Taeyeon and the younger girl followed obediently.
"Taeyeon can you wait here for a while? I have to talk to my coleague first. Is it okay if you wait for a few minutes?" Boa asked and Taeyeon gave her a nod and a small smile.
"It's okay unnie.. I'll be fine here" Taeyeon said and Boa nodded before going out of the office door. Starting to get bored alone, Taeyeon made her way to the window, opened the blinds and watched the busy street down the building.

She just sighed. Seeing the people walk hastily, slowly or lazily. She thought..
Can she still walk like that after a few years?

Can she still talk?

She doesn' t want to be a burden to anyone. Not to her brother, not to her friends and not especially to Baekhyun.

Closing the blinds again. She turned and saw a painting hanging on the white wall. She was about to take a step forward when she lost balance and fell, immediately after that she felt her legs cramped.

She can't move her legs. Suddenly, the door opened and it revealed Boa's shocked face. She immediately ran to Taeyeon and called some nurses to help her carry Taeyeon sit on the couch and just like that the cramp was gone again after a few seconds.
"Are you okay? Where does it hurt?" Boa asked while caressing Taeyeon's legs. Still horrified, it took a few seconds before the younger girl can speak.

"I'm fine unnie.. I just suddenly lost balance and fell and after that I felt cramps.." Taeyeon explained and Boa sighed before putting her hands on her forehead.

"I don't think this is getting better.. You have this for years Taeyeon and it's getting worst, as much as I see here the symptoms are slowly appearing one by one" Boa explained and Taeyeon's breath hitched.
No.

Three years. Boa said it's still after three years before it gets worse.
"W-What should I do?" Taeyeon asked worriedly. Boa look straight into Taeyeon's eyes before giving Taeyeon a worried look.
"You have to stay in the hospital.."
On the other hand..

"Why are you in a hurry? Is Taeyeon going to meet you today?" Kai asked when he saw his friend hurriedly putting and gathering all his stuffs in the table not caring if it's unorganized anymore.

"Uhh.. yes. So bye!" Baekhyun shortly said before dashing out of his workplace. The work hours just ended and he can't wait to see Taeyeon since he's worried about the girl.

The ride wasn't long and luckily there isn't a traffic jam so he easily made his way to the hospital. Hurriedly entering the building, Baekhyun went to the nurse's station and asked for the neurologist's office and as soon as he did, he knocked on the door before entering it.

"Who is it?" Boa asked before looking up. She stopped piling the stack of papers and smiled.

"Oh.. hi" Boa said and Baekhyun gave her a smile. "Uhh..doctor where is Taeyeon?" Baekhyun asked and Boa smiled a little knowing that Baekhyun is looking for Taeyeon AGAIN. .
"Oh, come with me" Boa said and Baekhyun obediently followed. They got into the elevator and went to the higher floor, where rooms for confined patients are located.
They took a few steps and stopped infront of the blue door.
009.

Boa opened the door and stepped with with Baekhyun still trailing behind her. He stopped his tracks as he saw the girl sitting on the bed, wearing the hospital dress while giving him an innocent grin.

"I'll leave you two first.." Baekhyun heard Boa said and he heard the door closed. He made his way to the bed and took a seat on the edge with his eyes still glued to Taeyeon.

"What are you doing..here?" Baekhyun asked and Taeyeon's expression changed.

"They need to keep me here.." Taeyeon said as her expression changed into a sad one. Baekhyun just sighed.

"When are you going out?"
"I won't be able to go out.." Taeyeon answered and Baekhyun kept mum. He wants to ask her a lot of things, he wants to tell her a lot of words but nothing comes out of his mouth.

"Taeyeon.." Baekhyun said and there he saw fear in Taeyeon's eyes. Fear that he never wanted to see.

"Baekhyun.. take me out here.."
