A Hidden Story (HaByul Story)

First Session of Truth

[AT THE HOSPITAL 6.30PM] 

[HAHA's POV] 

I told the rest of the members to go home and rest as I felt bad for them. I felt as though I was burdening them. It was time for my first counselling session since the incident and I was nothing short of nervous. I hated having to talk to someone about my feelings or about problems I was facing. I glanced at Go Eun who was sitting on the chair beside my bed cross-legged and I felt so sorry for her. She was struggling with looking after her sick father as well and now she had this trash called her boyfriend to take care of. 

"Go Eun ah... What are you thinking about?" I ask her, using my hand to poke her cheek. 

She looks up at me and smiles. 

"Nothing much oppa. Just thinking how much fun we will have when you're discharged! I want to eat seafood fried rice!" 

I look at her closely and raise an eyebrow. Nope. This wasn't all she was thinking about. She notices me looking at her and sighs.

"Okay... I'm thinking about your condition and my father..." 

My heart sank. She suffered so much, and as her boyfriend, I wasn't making anything easier for her, in fact just worse. 

"Yeobo. I promise you. I will try my best to get better. Even if it means I have to suffer a bit, I will get better no matter what for you okay. How is your father?" 

"He's not doing well... Do you want to meet him?"

I gasped. After dating for 3 months, we still haven't talked about meeting each other's parents... I was honestly scared her parents would disapprove of me as I was messed up and played a playboy character on Running Man. 

She looked at me and smiled to reassure me. "Yeobo... I'm sure my father will love you. My mother too! You're a great man okay!!!! I love you no matter what happens. Nothing will change that!" And she pecks me on the lips. 

I nod my head and smile at her. 

"I'm sorry for putting you through all..." my sentence doesn't finish because she kisses me again and I kiss her back this time with even more passion. 

After a minute, I break the kiss and we look at each other in the eye, "Yeobo... when I'm discharged okay..." I grin and wink at her and she pokes me shyly. She's simply adorable. 

Just then, someone who I've never seen before enters my room and greets us,

"Hello there Haha ssi and Ms Kim. I'm Dr Song and I'm your assigned psychiatrist for your stay and subsequent sessions. I see Ms Kim would be joining the sessions?" 

We both nod at her. 

"Alright... Now that we're done with the introductions, shall we get started? How are you holding up?" 

I sigh and hesitate to reply honestly but I feel Go Eun's eyes looking at me hoping for my response. 

"Honestly... I'm not doing well at the moment." I replied her with a short sentence.There was an awkward pause. 

She looked at me urging me to go on. 

"Well... I'm just facing stress, nothing very major. Some fans were being depressing."

"Nothing major? Tell me more then... It certainly isn't something very minor if it made me want to kill yourself."

"I...I... I didn't... Nevermind... It's nothing... They just kept telling me to leave my shows and that I didn't deserve any screentime."
