2nd August 2013 on Monday morning
A new day for Luhan which the sun is shining proudly & It's easy to see the sky is blue, there is no sign of white and round round clouds. unlike other people, Luhan prefers to wake and open his eyes to the gray sky in the morning when you can still smell dust and rain. on that days he loves to take photos of the little water diamonds on the leafs. but it's no rainy day on August.
after taking a bath and dressed in nice clothes and specially checking the address for the 8th time he was finally ready to go. the hospital was so far away from where Luhan live . so Dr. Oh decided to let Luhan stay at Blue Pandora for the while he work there. after one hour riding he reached the hospital.
At "Blue Pandora"
information: can I help you sir?
_ ah yeah, good morning. I'm Lu Han. I'm supposed to work here as Dr.Oh 's assistant instead of Kim Minseok.
information: Yes Mr.Lu . just a moment ! ... hello ...yes he just arrived. alright I'll inform him.
Mr.Lu , you can stay in waiting room , Dr will be here in a minute
_ oh ok , thank you
And with that he took a seat there .

stranger: hey hey you are here to see me right?

_ ah!!! Mr Oh???

but he didn't look like a doctor at all. he was in all blue clothes and he didn't seem normal.

stranger: I knew that you will come for me, how is Rebecca? tell me please, I was so worried but everything will be ok, I'll fix it. do you trust me?!

_uh I ... yes yes Rebecca is fine and defiantly I trust you.

just with one look he could tell that this man was one the patients.

Sehun: Mike !!!! what are you doing here? aren't you supposed to be in your room and wait for that lady to give your medicines ?

stranger: but look doctor... my son...my son is here .

Sehun: yeah I can see , I'm not blind . you go first and I'm gonna introduce your son to your friends.

the stranger smiled like an idiot and with help of one of the nurses he left that place.

Sehun: if there was someone else he would probably got nervous and answer the way to broke that man but I think Minseok choose the right person.

_ Dr.Oh , right?

Sehun: yes I am .

Luhan didn't expect to see a young and handsome boy. he was so impressed.

Sehun: Kim Jongdae , 23 years old, theater actor and he doesn't have any child or wife. his only problem is over thinking about fantasy books and classic movies . it was last year when in the middle of a musical he lose his control and the act over took his mind and suddenly he started to think that maybe his mother was really dead . and to say in short, he can't make a wall between his real personality and his roles. so that's why he is here now but treatment process is well advanced.

_ it must be difficult to think that you are another person when you are not

Sehun: and that's true but you will face worse than this here ( he chuckled ) Luhan I want to know that if you are really ready because the things that you are going to see here might be painful and I think you already know that .

_I exactly know what I throw myself into , so let's say that's why I am here . because I believe myself.
sehun : right , just wanted to make sure , the way you treat jongdea I can say you got something in your obi.
_ actually I had been studding Psychology plus I really loved everything about it but yeah some personal problems came to happen and I couldn't continue
sehun : alright , good to know that , want me to show you around ?
luhan was walking behind sehun , while looking around and at the same time listening to mr oh's theories.
sehun : overworking and problems , head injury , hereditary disorders , violence , imaginary lovers and friends , overdose , extreme laziness , living in fantasies , too much religious intolerance , dangerous habits , ill children , depression , selfishness , drinking too much alcohol , dependency to people or things , multi-polarization , child abuse , mental retardation and all are the most reasons why this patients are here . sometimes we should tie them up to limit their movements so they can't attack or bite others , long long time ago I mean years they use Rhodium on patients
_ rhodium ?? but that's just too dangerous
sehun : exactly , thats why we do not allow it , here we have television , heating appliances for our patients also we have ambulance and great doctors for emergency come ups . most of the time life of patients are always the same , they wake up , and walk around this paling garden or hospital corridors , they meet and talk to others and do weird things , take their meds and sleep . some of them even can't tell where they are, who they are , we also have some who don't move a single muscle all daylong and we have some who are still in 29th section oh and they are so dangerous don't go to that section alone .
_ I got that , thanks for all information , I'll do a good job
a boy caught luhans eyes which had a maniac smile on his lips , he was staring at them
sehun : don't mind him , name kim jong in a.k.a kai he just discharged from Cell No. 5 in section 29 be careful don't talk to him more than 5 sentences .
_ why is he looking at me like this ? ohhh ~ creepy
sehun : because unlike others he can memorize many things and he is sure you are a new comer ... okeeeey ~ this is where you can stay , this floor is for specialists , if you want you can start from tomorrow as my assistant , all I want from you is making file forms for my new patients , and register every detail about their changes and after completing every file put them on office records.
_ ok I'll start right from tomorrow
Luhan went to different corridors and observed the diverse patients. each of them has their own worlds. he decided to visit the large garden of the asylum before going to his room. the garden has many different kinds of plants and trees and there were some wooden benches. right in the middle of garden there was a fountain. Luhan was walking there while some of the patients were napping in the shadows of trees with no worries and the rest of them were enjoying their time . he went to the other side of garden which tall and big trees make there a abandoned place. it was a good place for hide and seek . he took a deep breath and closed his eyes. for a moment everything went silent and Luhan felt every single touch of the breeze on his face.
Baekhyun : It's peaceful , isn't it?
_ what?
when he opened his eyes , he faced a snow white , raven haired boy who was dressed in the similar clothes as other patients. his eyes was sparkling and he has a soft voice. Luhan has never seen such a delicate boy . he was so pretty . and Luhan couldn't stop himself from staring at him.
Baekhyun: Monsieur, aren't you gonna answer me?
_ well, ye.. yeah. it...it's very peaceful and so so pretty ( actually he meant the boy by saying pretty. in his eyes, that boy was even prettier than the flowers )
Baekhyun : baekhyun
_huh?
Baekhyun : I said Byun Baekhyun my name , call me baek
_ oh I'm .. Lu
but before he could finish his sentence ...
Baekhyun : so tell me Monsieur Lemaire , don't you think this place is similar to Eden garden?!
_ Garden of Eden?
Baekhyun : just look around. fruit trees, the fountain and cool breeze . each person has his own opinion of the exact place of Eden Garden. but I know here is the garden of Eden !
_ there is no reason to not be .
Baekhyun lay down on lawns under the shadow of threes , it got luhan kinda surprised
Baekhyun : garden of Eden huh ?he ! funny , all of this pisses me of
Luhan also sat down on lawns
_ why something like this makes you mad ?
Baekhyun : cause ,because I know there is an end of it , I'm gonna lose it soon , I always lose every beautiful thing in my life , every single one of it
_ if you believe in beauty of life and make them by yourself they'll become eternal
in a fast movement baekhyun pushed luhan and went on top of him , hands on both side of Luhan's head
Baekhyun : Monsieur Lemaire , I hate people like you , you , those doctors , my parents , aren't you tired of memorizing same stupid sentences and feed me with them ?
Luhan opened his mouth but close it right after he just realized that Baekhyun was right , he himself did this many times like the time when he kept over thinking what should he say to his bellowed friend xiumin after his mothers death
_ I'm s..so sorry , I didn't think my words could hurt you , please forgive me
Baekhyun was shocked and he laughed at Luhan
Baekhyun : oh I forgive you Lemaire , oh gosh you are so interesting ha ! if it wasn't my meds time I would definitely kiss you
he got up and walked away , luhan was blushing , his heart was beating faster than any time , he was confused by his own actions
_ Byun Baekhyun why he is here anyway ?

When Luhan arrived home he collected some stuffs for the while that he was going to stay there. While he was cleaning up his room , that book caught his eye, the book that he was hesitant about reading it. He put it under his bed and went to his desk. He took a notebook out of drawer and began to write without any introduction
We live in a planet which tens, hundreds, thousands, millions and billions of people live in it. we know a few people whilst our hearts desire to discover the other lives beyond galaxies... For what values, did God create us? It was for curious feelings of Adam & Eve which caused them to taste that sweet forbidden fruit or they just wanted to end something ?
According to the description of the book of Genesis, the Garden of Eden was the place where the first man Adam and his wife Eve lived there after creation by God.
My question is whether Adam & Eve were happy in Garden of Eden? Whether it was a peaceful and comforting place?
Was there fencing just like the garden of asylum? So Satan couldn't enter there and make them curious? Or it was just a fence in order to incarcerate them in their little heaven. To keep them there, from what? From the darkness of outside world? How was the outside world? Didn't it worth it to be free? Being free from heaven? fictitious heaven ... doesn't it matter at all to be fictitious when you can be happy there, where you can live in quietness and calm?
Suddenly he remembered Baekhyun's words
No! because...because...because you know that it has an end and you're going to lose it, this calmness this beauty ... and everything, you're going to lose all of them but would you earn anything in return?
I don't know, I still don't know...
For the first time Luhan had a peaceful sleep that night and there was no familiar stranger in his dreams. When he woke up in the morning he was smiling without knowing why . the only thing he knew was that he was thinking about would he meet Baekhyun today again or not?!
