In Luv with Yu

"auntie... we kind of have some explaining to do...?" minjeong's mom looked at them confused before aeri telling them the possible reason why minjeong turned out like this.

so aeri did explain to them. from how minjeong liked a certain girl to trying on pursuing her and to finding out the girl minjeong likes has a boyfriend. mrs kim was left in shock. she was clueless that her daughter liked girls. aeri also explained to them that minjeong is fully lesbian.

a few moments of explaining, a nurse approached them and told them that minjeong's room was now ready and ready to be visited. they followed the nurse which led them to a room that had two beeping monitors.

they couldn't help it. they cried at the scene. minjeong looked so weak. she became so thin to the point her bones are more visible than her veins. her breathing was also supported by an oxygen. her left wrist was also filled with plasters from the surgery. they really hope that she'll wake up soon.

••••••

two weeks passed by and minjeong is now awake. she woke up two days ago and they were in full joy. the moment minjeong woke up and realized she was alive, she went mad. she screamed and kept on shouting how they didn't let her die. it left all of her friends in tears. ryujin felt guilty the most. she knew all along but how come she did not bother asking minjeong? although aeri and lia kept on telling her it wasn't her fault, she can't help but take the blame.

minjeong is now in her room and her back resting on the headboard of the hospital bed. in front of her is a psychiatrist who is also from the same hospital. she interrogated minjeong, asked questions till she was satisfied.

as for minjeong's parents who was outside waiting, together with her friends for the psychiatrist to go out.

for almost 30 minutes have passed and the psychiatrist went out of minjeong's room. she sighed and her face is filled with worry.

"misis kim. i am so sad to deliver it to you that minjeong is suffering from severe depression. i will have her monitored with my team and with me. even until she recovers, we will still be monitoring her. she's really in bad shape. i hope we'll get her back soon. and please, do not let her out. especially putting sharp things near her. there could be high chances that she'll harm herself, okay?" the both nodded and bowed at the psychiatrist before leaving.

meanwhile minjeong at her room was only staring at the window, her mind going everywhere. not realizing she was already crying. of course she is aware that she's not feeling well and something is wrong with her, but after hearing the conversation with the psychiatrist and her parents, she can't help but think.... 'how come it ended this way?'

••••••

it was dinner time, around 8:14 in the evening. minjeong's parents let her friends go home for the mean time as they were always the ones who looked over minjeong.

both of minjeong's parents were walking towards her room. when they opened the door, they widened their eyes in horror.

minjeong was nowhere to be seen. her dextrose needle was left in bed, with the liquid coming out, indicating she was gone for a long time. the window wide open, wind gushing inside the room. they quickly ran towards the window to check but no minjeong.

they immediately went outside and called for her. they approached a nurse who was doing her rounds.

"hello miss nurse, have you seen the patient from room 119?" minjeong's mother managed to say as she was catching her breath.

"oh, patient number 119? yeah, i was the one who gave her medicine shot around fifteen minutes ago. she told me if it was okay to stroll around for a windbreak." they widened their eyes and thanked the nurse before rushing out the hospital.

they searched and searched with their eyes for minjeong's figure until minjeong's dad saw her.

"KIM MINJEONG!" he shouted and was about to go after her when he suddenly heard a crash, leading him falling into the ground. his wife guided him to stand up. that's when they noticed.

it was minjeong who went flying up in the air due to the car crash. the two screamed her name in unison and rushed towards her. they quickly called the hospital and a few nurses went in the scene and transferred minjeong inside.

as they were waiting for minjeong's surgery to finish, aeri, ryujin and lia came with them crying.

"what happened, auntie? where's jeongjeong?" aeri asked while remaining calm. mrs kim did not utter a word and just pointed at the surgery room. the three sat down and cried.

well, it took 3 hours for minjeong's surgery. the same doctor went out of the room and bowed to them.

"the surgery went well, no need to worry. i never expected to perform surgery on her twice. may i ask what happened?"

"she went out, saying she wanted to go for a stroll, said by a nurse. we shouldn't have left her or at least someone was watching her. gosh.." mrs kim said and covered her face with her palm.

"she's okay now, misis kim. no need to worry. though we still need to run more tests on her." the doctor bowed and left.

••••••

four days after minjeong's accident, and of course she's doing fine. she's got consciousness around 9am. she was staring at the window and her parents and friends came in to greet her.

minjeong furrowed her eyebrows, confused.

"jeongjeongie...? do.. you recognize us..?" her mom spoke, her voice trembling from holding herself to cry.

minjeong all of a sudden slapped her head, or more like ear.

"mom..?"

"yes yes, mom's here dear. what do you need?"

"i can't hear."
