Part 2

Will you be fine while I'm away? .... On your own?

                                    Hey Hyena! Meet my friend Jisung, he's a psychiatrist.

Miss Hyena, you'll be perfectly alright. Although, this condition may recur but let's try our best.

                                   Did you take your medications today?

You'll be fine. It's just all in your head...

Hyena ran as the teardrops slowly started gliding down her face, one after the other. Slowly, her long forgotten memories started surfacing her mind yet again. She just didn't want it to be true this time.

She reached her apartment and took the elevator to the 4th floor. With hesitating steps, she dared to knock on his door. She kept knocking it to the point of almost breaking it down, yet no answer.

Her screaming of his name relentlessly got the next door neighbour outside, who looked like anything but happy to see her, waking him up from his sleep.

There's no one in there, what are you knocking at? Cut the crap and go home if you're drunk!

With a thud, her knees met the ground and the tears won't just stop pouring. She didn't want to believe it at all costs, so she took out her phone and dialled the receptionist's number from her hospital.

Hi Mam, may I hel-

Ong Seongwu!! Find his name in the records of the employees ... I-

Sorry Mam, but we can't give out personal information like that.

I'm Hyena .... Dr. Hyena. I-

My apologies. I'll look into it, hold on Dr.

A long pause was heard on both ends of the call. Hyena's hyperventilation could've been easily heard on the other end of the call, that's just how anxious and nervous she got.

Sorry Mam, no-

Try Searching the HR's column!

Her voice automatically escalated several tones yet the answer was what she was not willing to hear.

Her eye muscles started losing their tone, and she could hardly see what was Infront of her. Her body was close to dropping to the ground, but the rushing footsteps that approached her, made her safely land in his arms.

Yo-Yohan?

The look on his face reflected hurt and pity. He hated seeing his girlfriend suffer this way. Yet again.

I-is it that Brief disorder again?

She barely made her words sound while trying to collect herself.

Brief Psychotic Disorder, yes. But don't worry, I informed Jisung about it and you'll be fine in no time again.

Fine? She doubted the meaning of that word more than anyone in that moment. Her heart ached to the point of her wanting to take her life. Just in months time, she got close to someone to only think of them as a dream that happened in her life. The deep sadness put up a fake smile on her face. Of course, she didn't want her boyfriend worrying about it ...

But the look in Yohan's eyes suddenly changed its colour from sympathetic to cold.

But you gotta tell me who this Seongwu guy is first.
