Chapter 34: you'll know later
The door slid open, with the nurse coming in while carrying a pile of white sheets, similar to the ones the boy has. The lights flickered open and was followed with rustling noises, causing the boy to wake up from his slumber.
"Good evening, dear. I'm sorry if I woke you up. I didn't mean to. You can go back to sleep and just ignore me. I'll be having to leave soon after."
"What's going on?"
The boy asked in curiosity, rubbing his eyes in a tired manner in an attempt to gaze on the nurse clearly while the nurse began to fix the empty hospital bed besides his.
"We'll be having another patient here. I believe they'll be coming here later once they finish."
The nurse answered, giving the petite boy a small grin before returning to fixing the bed.
"Finish what?"
The boy continued, peeping over from his bed.
"You'll know later, sweetie."
"Jaemin, you'll be having your therapy next week. I'm sorry if things have been delayed. I didn't want to continue with the therapy with your state last time."
Jaemin hummed as he sat on his seat uncomfortably after snapping from his thoughts.
The feeling felt too familiar for him. Sitting in front of his doctor's desk while they discuss his condition. He would've thought he's been reliving the same day because of how familiar things were.
"Ah, yes. I'm sorry about last time. Everyone had to adjust because of me."
Jaemin apologises, bowing his head in sign of respect but his doctor only shook his head. He later felt a hand on his shoulder, giving him a gentle pat.
"It's okay, Jaemin. Things like that always happen in the hospital. It's not a rare occasion and most importantly, it's not your fault. Your episodes are very unpredictable to this day and we have yet to know if it has a certain pattern. We'll schedule it this week, is it okay with you?"
The brunet lightly nodded in response, heaving a sigh in the process of doing so.
"Yes. I don't want to prolong things. I know my condition is only getting worse and I need to get it treated as soon as I could."
"Very well.. I'll have a nurse assist you if that's okay?"
Jaemin momentarily blinks as he bit his bottom lip in hesitation. Despite being in the premises of the hospital for years, he would still prefer Renjun to assist and be with him over anyone else.
"Uhm.. Can't my friend assist me instead?"
The doctor hums in a manner that makes Jaemin anxious. He fiddled with his fingers as he kept his gaze fixated on the person in front of him, not wanting to seem rude.
"Your friend assisting you on their own, I'll have to think about it. Your friend was the one assisting you when you fainted if I'm not mistaken. I need to make sure you'll be safe and in good hands, Jaemin. I'll let your friend assist you but I'll still have you be assisted with a nurse. Just to be sure."
The brunet sighed in defeat, knowing there were no other options for him to choose from. And all of it is because of him fainting by accident.
