He's NOT a Psycho

Chapter 2

Kun sighed softly as the head nurse locked the door of the boy's room, and she turned to him, still angry. Kun looked down, ready to receive quite a scolding from her. The head nurse looked at Kun, putting the key in her pocket. "Follow me." She began walking, and Kun followed her quietly. The head nurse walked to her office, sitting down at her desk and gesturing for Kun to sit down across her. "You may have noticed how innocent he can look, but trust me, that kid is nuts." Kun nodded, even though he didn't really agree. "Kun, this boy is in the dangerous section for a reason. You might've seen him just peacefully drawing, but that pen could turn into a weapon." Kun took a deep breath, looking at the head nurse. "Miss Liu.. can you tell me what he's diagnosed with?" "Being possessed. I told you before." "No, what is his real diagnose. What disorder or illness does he have?" The head nurse was silent for a while, but sighed and opened a drawer of her desk. She searched through some files, and when she had found the right one, she placed it on the desk. "Read through this. I will applaud you if you actually find out why he's acting like this." Kun's eyes widened, and without hesitation he took the file. "I'll read it. Every single page of it." Kun smiled slightly, looking at the file in his hands. "Thank you, miss Liu." "Don't thank me. I find it brave that you want to know more about that demon child. It's a surprise to me that he hasn't 'died because of unknown reasons' yet." Kun blinked, furrowing his eyebrows as she said that. "What?" "Kun.. we help patients by ending their suffering sometimes. In some cases, death is the only relief for the pain they are in." Kun gulped, standing up, holding the file to his chest. "Well.. I'll make sure to end that boy's suffering." "Don't get your hopes up, Kun. I lost my hope for him a long time ago." Kun looked down and bowed slightly before leaving the head nurse's office.

As Kun came home that day, he quickly took out the file from his bag. He smiled slightly, placing it on his dinner table. "Dinner first.. then we find out what you are going through." Kun said softly to himself, walking to the kitchen to prepare dinner. When he had finished his food and cleaned everything up, he sat down on his couch, the file in his hands. He took a deep breath, opening it and looking at the boy's profile. Yangyang.. 19 years old.. admitted at.. the age of 4? He had been in the institution for most of his life? Kun read over his profile again, taking in every necessary information. To his surprise, Kun couldn't find any surname. Did his family drop him off? Was his last name unknown? Was he maybe even born in the institution? Kun shivered at the thought. How horrible it must be to be born in an institution and never have gone outside even once. Kun flipped the page, beginning to read through all the reports, examinations, yearly overviews and psychology tests. Kun got more confused as he kept reading, as the files missed certain important steps and whole pages of reports were missing. As if somebody had gone through the file and took out all the actual important info. Kun read through some of the test and examinations, and they were way different from what he had ever learned in school. They were not up to date with the current mental health examination rules, and they had been done with one simple look at the boy without going deeper. Kun got frustrated, as this whole file brought him nowhere. It only confused him more. Was this done on purpose? Was this boy supposed to be locked in that institution against his will under false claims of possession?

The next morning, Kun went to the instution extra early. He wanted to check in on the boy before anybody else, and he was hoping to ask the head nurse for something specific. He had decided to get more into the boy, wanting to research him and dedicating his intership to finding out what was going on with the boy. He checked in in the staff room, then quickly walking over to the restricted section. He opened the doors with the code, and walked inside. He walked straight to the boy's room, but when he looked through the small window in the door, the room was empty. A cold shiver ran down his back, fearing something might've happened. He looked around, wondering where the boy could've gone. Had the head nurse replaced him? Did they 'end his suffering'? Kun bit his lip, then beginning to walk past every door in the hallway, checking every room to see if the boy was in there. Kun eventually stopped at one of the padded rooms, seeing a familiar figure inside. He sighed relieved, knowing it was the boy, but also feeling very disturbed by the sight. The boy was lying on a simple matress on the floor, and the unmistakable straps and clasps from a straighjacket were visible on his back. Kun almost wanted to burst out his tears, as he believed the boy never diserved to be in this position. He quickly looked around the hallway, making sure he was alone. He then unlocked the room, going inside silently and letting the door fall close behind him. He walked towards the boy, kneeling down beside him. "Hey.. Yangyang? That's your name, right?" Kun placed his hand on Yangyang's shoulder carefully. "I'm here to help you. This time I promise I will protect you from the head nurse with my life." Yangyang turned around slightly, looking at Kun with red teary eyes. Kun gasped softly, shocked by the emotional state Yangyang was in. "Oh dear.. oh no.." Kun wiped away some tears from Yangyang's cheeks. "I'm so sorry they do this to you."
