Pateint

Dr. Jeon/Jungkook
So, tell me something about yourself.
Dr. Jeon/Jungkook
Yeah, like, what do you like to do? What do you hate to do? Which games do you like to play? And everything, you want to...
Pateint

Dr. Jeon/Jungkook
I don't like anything to do as well! Haah.. I hate it... Really..
Dr. Jeon/Jungkook
Um.. Hmm..
Dr. Jeon/Jungkook
But there is, one thing, I like to do very much...
Pateint
Looked at him with curious eyes*
I opened my drawer, taking a toy dinosaur in my hand, I kept it on the table.
Dr. Jeon/Jungkook
You see, it is my friend little dino...
Dr. Jeon/Jungkook
And I tell him everything about myself, and. Then if he feels I am a good boy, then he plays with me always...
Pateint
R-really?
*doe eyes
Dr. Jeon/Jungkook
Yes really, you want to be friend with Mr. dino..
Pateint
*took the dino from the table and started to run in the room excitedly.
Pateint
Mr. dino... Mr. dino!
Pateint
Do you wan to be Lily's frien?
Pateint
*sat in the corner with dino in her lap
She is 24, a patient going through peter pan syndrome. The thing was it wasn't because of any injury, but because of her traumas.
God knows what she was going through. *sigh.
I just hope she recovers soon, if not for herself then for her parents.
I looked at the glassed door, her parents looking at us with tears filled in their eyes.
I stood from my chair, walking up to them.
I closed the gate behind, silently, not wanting to disturb that little girl, who was busy with Mr. Dino.
Mrs lee
How is she, doctor?
And she cries more, half leaned on his husband's shoulder.
Dr. Jeon/Jungkook
Please, control yourself Mrs lee.
Dr. Jeon/Jungkook
Do you think Lily would like to see you like this?
Dr. Jeon/Jungkook
She is doing fine, Mrs lee. She just needs a little time to recover.
I watched, Mrs lee, wiping her tears, trying to stay strong. But his husband took her head again on his shoulder, patting her head lightly.
Mr lee
Don't worry Linda, our Lily is strong, she will be fine soon.
And Mrs lee cries more, hiding in his husband's embrace.
I just stood there, silently looking at the couple, with a heavy heart.
Their tears really put pressure in my heart. I took a glance at that girl again and then turned to Mr. Lee.
Dr. Jeon/Jungkook
Mr. Lee if you don't mind, may I know what causes her trauma?
Dr. Jeon/Jungkook
Anything you know can be a great help for me to understand her situation...
I said calmly, looking at Mr. Lee.
Mr lee
I really don't know what caused her to be like this. She was always happy, giggling at little things...
Mr lee
She never told us anything that was related to her mental health...
And then he stopped, his tears were threatening him to flow down. But he still stood there composed, gently patting his wife's head.
Dr. Jeon/Jungkook
It's okay Mr. Lee, you can rely now, she will be fine soon.
The couple nodded and called their daughter.
Mrs lee
Lily let's go to our room, huh? Nurse aunt is there, she has chocolates for you...
She ran in the hallways, excitedly.
She said and came back to me.
Pateint
Dr. uncle, can I have Mr. Dino? He is my friend now.
She said showing the dino near my face, with her doe eyes.
Dr. Jeon/Jungkook
Yes lily, you can..
I said, patting her head lightly.
