"hmmm? you can tell me anything." jimin mutters, as i twirl locks of his hair between my fingers anxiously.
"okay."
i close my eyes.
"march 2005." i said in a hushed tone, feeling comforted by jimin's presence, yet afraid. i didnt know how he would react.
i continued, "my twenty-first anxiety attack. i was at a debate competition, and was invited on stage to go for a showcase." i inhale deeply as he adjusted his position, craning his neck awkwardly to look at me.
i didnt want to look at him.
i didnt want to hurt him.
i wanted to love him.
"i collapsed on stage, and when i woke up- i dont- i didnt remember. i couldnt even recognise my parents." i groan, wiping a tear of my cheek in embarrassment.
i didnt want him to see me cry.
i didnt want him to see my flaws.
i wanted him to love me.
"hey- hey, its okay, okay? everything's okay." he whispers, cradling my head in his arms as i sobbed into his teeshirt.
"i found out that i was in a coma for two days, but when i woke up, i had temporary amnesia from how bad the anxiety attack was."
"but its okay now- right?" he questions gently, still holding me in his arms tightly.
"this was years ago, jimin." i reply, sobbing even harder now.
a little flustered, jimin ran his fingers through his hair, waiting for me to continue to speak. even as minutes passed, he still had his arms wrapped over me protectively, with me now laying my head on his lap in silence, as he whispered how much i meant to him and how everything would be okay- as if i meant the world to him.
"i-i might have a relapse." i finally manage to stutter, choking on my words while struggling to keep it together, struggling to hold in the next wave of tears.
"the doctor said so eleven years ago, and the first symptom he said would show was short-termed memory." i said, beginning to sit up, avoiding eye contact and staring at the floor.
"remember, jimin? the day we went to the carnival- i forgot your coffee. and i forgot the cooler filled with beer."
