Let Me Out | SEUNGIN - Stray Kids

Chapter 2 - My First Impression of You

Seungmin pov:

Sunlight shined into my room from the window and I opened my eyes due to the warm sunshine.

Another day. Another fucking day had passed and I'm still not out of this prison, I thought frustratingly as I got up and went to look out of the window. Everything's cheerful except me. The sun was shining brightly. The flowers were blossoming beautifully. Great weather. I sighed and closed the curtains so that I wouldn't be able to see the annoyingly happy scene around my prison.

Every day's depressing here. I have no idea how I even survived this place for 5 fucking years. And today's just worse. The nurses told me that I was meeting a new doctor and it totally set me on edge. Doctors. They're all the same. They never listened to me and kept giving me these stupid treatments and therapies that supposedly would make me sane. Fucking bullshit that doesn't even make a bit of fucking sense.

My day's just getting better and better. Every day I got up with the thought (which is more like a fact) that I'm not going to be able to get out of here and that depressing fact still didn't count my more-than-extremely annoying meetings with those doctors who don't know what listening to their patients meant.

Maybe if I throw random things at him, he would leave me alone and maybe I would be able to avoid those stupid therapies. Maybe this is the reason why I'm still here. You might think that if I just endure those treatments, I would have been out of there but really that didn't work that way. If it did, I would have been out there and would have been enjoying everything around me now. Plus, those treatments are simply torturing.

Yeah, I made up my mind. I am going to do anything to keep that stupid doctor and those torturing treatments and therapies away from me.

Jeongin pov:

Approximately a week ago . . .
"You are assigned to treat Kim Seungmin, Jeongin," Sungwoon sunbae said and I had to try my best not to widen my eyes at him or gape at him.

I was just talking with Chan hyung and Minho hyung this morning about that patient, Kim Seungmin. Actually, it was more like me listening to them gossiping about that patient. They said something along the lines of that-Kim-Seungmin-is-going-crazy-and-throwing-things-at-people.

I wasn't actually listening to them intently but I got the gist of what they were saying. According to them, Kim Seungmin was one of the most difficult patients to treat.

But I definitely didn't expect that he would be my first patient. I mean, why would they ask me to treat Kim Seungmin, one of the scariest patients? I was a complete newbie. Even if I was one of the top students, I had not treated a real patient. I knew only the theories. What use would it be with a real patient?

At the same time, I was happy. If I could treat that patient, I would be pretty much impressed by my seniors. That could be a chance to prove myself.

"Er . . . Jeongin? Jeongin?" Sungwoon sunbae called, snapping his fingers in front of my face so that I would focus back on him.

"Sorry. I was wondering . . . when I can start treating him. Sorry for dozing. And what is it that you were talking about, sunbae?"

"Just that I will be giving you Kim Seungmin's information with some files later. Nothing extremely important. And you can start treating him any time you want."

This time I couldn't help gaping at him. Usually, we have to start treating our patients on a specific date that they had given to us. It seemed to me that I was getting special privileges because Kim Seungmin's a difficult patient. But anyway, that's good since I needed to see how my patient looks like or acts before I actually treat the guy.
