Hello, Mr. Sanity | Chanbaek

Chapter 4

My stomach recoiled, the bubbling growing as the fingers down my throat went deeper. I gagged, small tears forming at the slits of my eyes. The cough admitting from within only made the bubbling grow, growing bigger and bigger as I pushed on, trying to get what I wanted free.

Finally, the bubbling stopped, my fingers came out of my throat as I quickly bent down, the essence of this mornings breakfast down into the can. The mushy substance that was once my meal was now turned into something more horrid, something unexplainable.

My hand came back up to my mouth, covering as I coughed, my throat burning and my stomach now empty and lonesome. I shook my head, glad the disgusting excuse for food was gone.

My sputtering and coughing fit soon ended, my body jumping as a knock emitted from my door. My face froze, my mouth lay agape as I listened to the voice.

"Yah! Chanyeol-ah! Luhan and I came over to check on you." Oh Sehun's voice yelled and echoed through my small room.

"O...One moment..." My voice croaked out, my lungs squeezing as I continued to hack.

My body lurched over, hiding the tin can under my bed in a quick motion. I took the bed sheets that lay messed up on the bed, draping them over so it hid underneath the death trap. My eyes gazed around the rest of the room, trying to find any other evidence of what had happened. Once I deemed it worthy, I nodded, getting up from my sprawled position on the floor and went to the door. I took a deep breath before opening the door, seeing the faces of Sehun and Luhan.

I rolled my eyes at the energy that emitted from the two goofy divas.

Sehun stood taller than Luhan, his recently dyed blonde hair parted and fixed. He wore a pair of nice fitting jeans and a t-shirt. In one of his hands he held a cup of bubble tea, the other held the hand of his spouse.

Luhan was shorter, and a lot more feminine than the latter. He wore a dark gray hoodie and his own jeans that matched Sehun's. His hair was a soft caramel brown that fell into his eyes lightly. His face held a small smile, but also something else. Sympathy maybe?

I moved to the side slightly, motioning my arms to let the two walk inside. As I did that, I caught a glimpse at myself. My hair was a wreck and ruined, ends sticking up in all directions. My clothes were too small and short, making my body look larger than it already was. I scoffed at the image, finding it utterly disgusting.

I sat over on my bed, making sure my legs covered where the can was underneath it. My gaze stared forward, watching the couple sit at chairs that was opposite to my bed. My hands clasped down into my lap, holding together as I stared, waiting for someone to speak, anything for the horrendous silence.

"So.." Sehun started, "How is your new doctor?"

I only shrugged, "He's like other doctors, what's there to say?" I spoke, surprised at myself to have my voice not croaking anymore.

He nodded his head slowly before sniffing the room, "Have you been puking?"

My body froze, my own nose smelling the air. I cursed at myself, the smell was obvious. It was nasty and horrible, making the vile resurrect back in my stomach, threatening to come out. I swallowed it down before looking down, nodding my head.

"Damn it, Chanyeol! You need to start actually consuming your food. We've already had this talk before, you're not going to get better if you keep going on like this. You're skin and bones, you need meat on yourself." Sehun spoke, standing up from the seat he was sitting on.

Luhan also nodded his head, "I'm grateful for what you have done for us, but let us help you. Before I found Dr. Byun I interviewed a lot of doctors, and I found him the best for you. I want you to get out Chanyeol-ah. But please take care of yourself, I want you to be able to come out healthy, not dead."

His words hit. I took them in, my brain processing each word slowly. I looked up again, my eyes studied the two as the only simply smiled to me. I nodded my head, gulping down and feeling my stomach tighten.

"You can start by drinking my bubble tea." Sehun spoke.
