Chapter 17: Why treating him is that hard?
Beomgyu was lying on a bed even though it wasn't looking like a bed. It was a small berth where someone could lean on. Beomgyu was also leaning on the bed while closing his eyes. It was a small room and the room was surrounded by thin curtains. Though the outsiders can't take a look at who was sitting or lying on the bed. There was no other furniture kept in the room except for a small table beside the bed.
An ancient clock was on the table and it kept making a ticking sound. The place was quite neat and clean. Beomgyu can feel the cool wind though he didn't know where it was coming from. There was a nice and refreshing smell which touched Beomgyu's nostrils and freshened him.
Namjoon was standing beside Beomgyu. He was wearing a white doctor gown and blue colored pants. He was wearing glasses which made him look different from the other day. He was looking very decent and perfect for a psychiatrist. He increased the sound of the clock.
*TICK TOCK TICK TOCK TICK TOCK*
Namjoon poked Beomgyu's nostrils with a very thin stick to make sure if he fell asleep or not. Beomgyu opened his eyes and glared at Namjoon as he was feeling the peace of the world but Namjoon interrupted. He looked at Namjoon as if he was going to kill him.
"Okay okay, Don't give me that look. I couldn't resist myself because you were so cute." Namjoon laughed weirdly and said that he threw the stick away.
"Hmph! You were the one who told me to close my eyes and sit here!" Beomgyu was loud while saying that.
"Okay Okay, I got it. Now lay down again." Namjoon said smilingly as he found Beomgyu way too cute. Beomgyu closed his eyes but he couldn't shut his mouth like earlier as he was too talkative.
"Do Yoongi hyung know you flirt with other people too?" Namjoon was going to start his treatment but Beomgyu stopped him by saying that.
"What?" Namjoon was surprised.
"Y-You were flirting with me earlier, didn't you? By poking my nose with that green stick!" Beomgyu said while closing his eyes and as if it's nothing to him.
"S.t.o.p i.m.a.g.i.n.i.n.g things, WILL YOU?" Namjoon hit Beomgyu's head as he was angry with him even though he needed to be calm if he was looking after his patients.
"Aw! Hyung! It hurts!" Beomgyu sat down again and said loudly.
"Shh! It's a hospital! Don't be too loud!" Namjoon put his finger on his own lips and told Beomgyu to stop.
"HMPH!" Beomgyu pouted and lay down again.
"Now take a deep breath. Close your eyes first." Namjoon went closer to Beomgyu.
He closed his eyes but couldn't take a deep breath as he had another question.
"Hyung! Where is Soobin?" Beomgyu asked.
"He's in my chamber and sitting on the chair. Don't worry about him and focus on yourself."
Namjoon became crimson as he was very angry and scratched his upper teeth with lower.
"Can't he come here and sit beside me?" he asked again. Namjoon slapped on his own forehead for some time as he was regretting calling him here.
"NO! Nobody should be with you in this method of treatment!" Namjoon said in a harsh voice but seeing him pouting again, he felt guilty.
"I got it." Beomgyu was disappointed to hear Namjoon's answer.
"Now, can you pleeeeaaaase close your eyes and try to stay calm?" Namjoon nearly begged him and it seemed like he was gonna cry. Beomgyu closed his eyes firmly and stayed still until he heard his voice.
"Now try to imagine..." Namjoon couldn't finish his lines because the motor in Beomgyu's mouth started again.
"Hyung! I have another question." Beomgyu said after hearing him.
"Ah!" Namjoon slapped his face again and sighed.
"Talk! I can't give you more than an hour anyway." Namjoon said and sighed again.
"Did you treat someone else like this? And have you succeeded in regaining their old memories?" Beomgyu asked and opened his eyes looking at Namjoon.
Hearing him, Namjoon stopped and looked at him for a while because he didn't know what he should answer him with.
"Are you suspecting me?" Namjoon asked after a while.
"No! That's not what I meant! What I meant is..." Beomgyu was going to say something but Namjoon stopped him by saying something out of disappointment.
"Okay! You don't need to take the treatment if you don't want to believe me." Namjoon said and turned around to walk away.
"No! Hyung! Listen to me! I-I-I'm j-just a-afraid. I-I don't know who I was before and what I'm going to face. So..." Beomgyu couldn't say furthermore as he couldn't think of anything though it was true that he was afraid to face his real self. He likes how he is living now and he's willing to live like this forever. But what if he gets his old self by remembering everything. Moreover, Namjoon said he was in critical condition when they found him. So, what if he was a bad guy? Or someone who was trying to be killed? Beomgyu couldn't even imagine his past self.
"Hey! Don't be afraid! We're all here with you! No matter what you were before, we'll still love you and take care of you. You'll be the same Beomgyu to us but you just need to fight for a little. Hm?" Namjoon came to him and put his hand on his shoulder to console him. That time he saw a shadow behind the curtain and understood who it was. His hair was visible as he was trying to peek inside.
*Sigh* "Come in. He needs you anyway." Namjoon said to Soobin who was trying to see Beomgyu. Soobin entered and stood up near Namjoon. He smiled at Namjoon and seeing him smiling, Namjoon was also nearly whipped but he remembered it's not a time to be whipped.
"Can you please bring the chair inside too." Namjoon asked Soobin gently.
"Yes, sure!" Soobin understood which chair Namjoon was referring to and went outside as soon as he got the request.
Within a few moments, Soobin entered with the chair but stood still since he didn't know where he should put the chair.
"Put it beside the bed and sit on it." Namjoon was fixing his glasses and ordered Soobin. Soobin did what he was told to.
"Will it be okay?" Namjoon asked Beomgyu.
"Now that he's with me, it's alright." Beomgyu answered smilingly.
"Then let's start the procedure and please, pleeeease don't run your mouth." Namjoon begged to Beomgyu again. Soobin was surprised by Beomgyu's answer and he was looking at him but when Namjoon said he was going to start the procedure, he moved his eyes to Namjoon.
"How cool he was looking!" Soobin said in his mind. He wanted to become a cool doctor too. But he doesn't have enough money for that now though he was from a rich family. Moreover, he decided to study arts now though he majored in medicine two year ago. But after taking a break for almost two year, he decided not to go on that path again since it reminded him about his miserable past. Soobin sighed but suddenly he realized that Beomgyu put his hand on Soobin's hand all of a sudden.
Soobin felt relieved but also anxious too. He looked at Namjoon who was blabbering something near Beomgyu's ear like he was putting some spells on him. Namjoon also noticed that and looked at Soobin.
"Would it be okay?" Soobin asked with his gesture.
"Just stay still. It's okay." Namjoon also replied with his gesture.
