“ Chapter 30 - Without You ”

*Tzuyu's Pov*

Another morning, another day at hell. I woke up earlier than I usually do since I don't particularly want to run into Mingyu since I'll be going to Mrs. Kim aka Mingyu's mother's shop.

I haven't visited her in a long time. With all the things going out of hands, I just couldn't bring myself to face her.

I grabbed my backpack, slinging it on my back, closing the door behind me before locking it. I kept the key inside my bag before glancing at Mingyu's house. The lights were off indicating he's still asleep.

The sky was dimly lighted as it was just five in the morning right now. I walked towards the shop, knowing it'll be open since it's open 24/6. Yup, it's not open all seven days. It's closed on sundays since all the other days, it's open for twenty four hours. I don't know how aunt manages it.

Hi. I wave to her as I step inside the shop while she was sitting on the desk with her mobile phone in her hand, a picture displayed on it which I couldn't quite see.

Tzuyu! She spoke in a delighted manner when she saw me, her eyes lit up as her hand automatically kept the phone on the table, giving me a view of a family picture where I could easily point out Mingyu and aunt along with a girl around fifteen and an old man, probably Mingyu's father.

I was quick to take my eyes off the phone, careful in not giving aunt a clue about what I just witnessed and smiled at her.

Are you eating breakfast these days? I shook my head as she lightly hits my back.

That's why I tell you to come here every morning before you leave just so that something can go inside that small stomach of yours. I smiled sheepishly at her words. My mind converting her sweets words into dirty ones which made me blush as I shook my head while aunt searched for something.

Aish, you pervert!

Here. Drink this and eat this. Aunt handed me strawberry milk along with kimbap in a polybag as I nodded before getting up and handing her money.

Then, I'll leave. It came out more as a question from my side.

Tzuyu. I stopped in my tracks and turned to her, knowing what was to come.

H-How's Mingyu? I smiled at her before informing her,

He's perfectly fine. She nodded as I finally stepped out of the store, my heavy heart now on top of the sky as I walked, taking the kimbap out of the polybag and unwrapping it, looking around, my eyes in search of the park that comes on the way to school.

Chewing the delicious content, I spotted the park and walked inside it, taking a seat on the swing as I ate quietly. Swinging very slowly, staring at my empty surroundings.

Who would wake up at five? As expected. I looked down, loneliness setting itself inside me.

What could possibly be wrong with him? Hearing voices and seeing things, huh? Taking my phone out of my pocket, planted in my shorts, I quickly opened google, my wallpaper of my parents, not affecting me at all somehow.

I searched for some type of disease or mental health problem including symptoms of hallucinating.

Psychosis (schizophrenia/schizoaffective disorder).
