CHAPTER 23: WEAKLING

Just when I thought everything was perfect, of course, it all had to turn again....

TAEHYUNG P.O.V

"Bye y/n!" I waved at her and headed to my one and only destination: seoul's mental hospital. I'm not quite sure if I'm ready, but I'll try.

~~~~~

"Excuse me, do you have a patient with the name Kim m/n? (m/n = mother name)" I saw the secretary type in something before she answered.

"Yes sir. But first, do you mind tell me who you are?" Her voice was Stern and professional, which made me lose some confidence for some reason..

"y-yes ma'am. I'm her son, Kim taehyung" I replied back trying not to stutter. The aura of the whole place was a little creepy, which is normal for hospitals, I assume.

"Okay sir, she's in room 246. That's on the fifth floor, good luck." She replied as if it was memorized from a book or something. I slightly bowed to her before heading my path, still nervous.

I finally reached the door to her room, but didn't dare to get in. It felt like my feet were glued to the ground. As I was feeling stuck in place, I remembered y/n.. she told me.....

"It's okay, it might seem scary, but you CAN do it. Take a deep breath... And just head there. You don't know might be waiting for you, so you must find out immediately, before you become afraid of meeting it more."

Her thoughtful words always encourage me, it's so weird how she affects me...

I mustered up the courage and felt my feet move again, entering the white door to whatever was waiting for me.

There, I was welcomed with a hall to a metal door. I exhaled out of relief because of how suffocating it was. I continued my way to the metal door, but as I was about to grab the door knob, I overheard someone speak through the other side.

"Please doctor, when can I see him? I'm all better now."

Eomma?

"Ok fine... I will call him to visit you in 2 days"

"He doesn't have a phone to begin with, and why not today? I really feel guilty for hurting my son all those years, I just want to apologise."

I'm sorry too eomma.. for hating you, I mean.

"Sorry ma'am, just not today, we fear you might return to your old self when you see him"

My tongue clicked out of anger, still, I kept listening.

"No.. I wont hurt him again. I-i've changed... I just want to see my little taetae again."

I can feel her sincerity, and I believe every word she says.

"Ma'am, we can't--"

The door was bursted open with a smiling me sitting on the edge of the bed, bringing eomma into a tight hug. She just stayed shocked, not realizing anything at the moment.

"Hi eomma." I simply greeted her after I broke the hug, having the biggest smile on my face in days. She couldn't hold back her tears that filled her face in no time.

"Eomma~ you look ugly when crying, please don't." I said, wiping tears off her face with my hands.

"Excuse me sir, who are you exactly?" The doctor sitting on the chair nearby spoke in an annoyed tone. I glared at him before smiling sarcastically.

"Her little taetae.. got a problem?" I kept that horribly obvious sarcastic smile, but then I remembered.. as my face formed a frown yet serious expression.
