He was following the man in a white coat to his new boss office.
Working as a doctor in a mental care institution. He was assigned to work in another town.
He was born in Seoul and had started working there as well but when the sister hospital in Ilsa become low on doctors.
His chief doctor asked him to help out here. And he accepted without overthinking it too much.
Not even asking his longtime girlfriend for her opinion.
They were about to reach the office when his eyes caught a glimpse of a girl.
She was just as small as his girlfriend. Solbin. Stopping there he looked intensely at her.
Something was about her that he wanted to know. Something that made him feel he had to know.
Assistant: She's Y/N. She doesn't talk at all. Eating is also hard for her. And there is nothing that can help her.
Assistant: She's 4 years here already her parents not able to help her as well.
Leo: Do you know what happened that she's here?
Assistant: Her parent could only say that she attempted suicide after a broken relationship.
Assistant: They didn't know the details and couldn't tell more. It's like she's dead with a living body.
Assistant: But you can try maybe she'll open up someday. The chief doctor is waiting.
Leo: Right, I'll definitely try my best to help her. 'She'll be able to live a normal life again.'
After a few days, he finally had the opportunity to talk to you even truth you didn't answer him.
And didn't even look at him. Your eyes fixed to the gate of the institution.
He was looking carefully at her. And asked carefully.
Leo: You're waiting for him? And he saw your eyes flutter a bit and then a slight nod.
And he felt happy. He didn't know why but he felt happy and he now knew how he could get to you.
Leo: Do you want him to come here? Another careful question.
But this time you shook your head 'no'. His happy feeling leaving him again.
Leo: He hurt you badly right? But he wouldn't give up on you.
It was as if you were connected somehow to him. As if you were his soulmate.
And he would get you out of your black hole of sorrow.
Watching you lower your head your gaze torn from the gate. You wanted to cry but no tears left your eyes.
Leo: You don't have to tell me now. Take your time I'll always ready to listen to you.
And finally, you looked up and directly into his eyes.
Your eyes seemed dead when he gets to look into them.
Nothing was reflecting in your eyes. Not the light from the sun that was shining through the window and not his own reflection.
Leo: I can see that it's hard for you and you don't want to let anyone into your heard.
Leo: Closing thick wall around it. Afraid you could get hurt again. Let's make a promise.
Leo: I'll be your friend and I promise I won't hurt you ever. And if I do I'll be the first to leave this world.
His words made you shiver. You didn't want anyone to get hurt because of you.
