9- Recovering

At Yeong Kwan's house, he offered her some water while she was sitting, plunged in her thoughts, and looking at the stars through the window.

"Choi," he called her, observing her unconscious mind, which didn't even know he was there.

She emotionlessly looked up at him and asked pitifully, "What's wrong did I? Why? Why did I choose this kind of destiny?"

"Don't think too much; drink this first." He stretched the glass of water to her.

As she witnessed his care just through his concern-shaded eyes, she brought the glass and told inside her thoughts, "Why was I blind to look at you?"

He then put her luggage aside, saying, "Sleep now. Let's arrange this tomorrow."

She nodded, forcing a smile as he left the room.

At midnight, don't know what bothers her; even after overcoming the betrayal Woo-sunk did to her, she was turning left and right, sleepless.

"Aish!!" She sat up, punching the bed harshly. She then walked out of the room. While she was heading to the bridge to eat something, she glimpsed Yeong-Kwan napping on the sofa instead of the bed.

"There is another room that exists. Why is he sleeping here?"

She thought to herself before tracking her path towards him. Not to delay, just when she spotted his glamorous face under the moonlit, she couldn't help but smile, unconsciously admiring him. Like that, she sat on the surface facing him since she was unable to take her eyes off his spontaneous look, remembering how protective he was towards her.

"You look gorgeouser than your evil brother," she whispered. Magically, as if it hit his ear, he slightly moved his head in sleep, and his palm, which had been resting on his stomach, fell on the sofa facing the ceiling.

Immediately after noticing that, Choi smiled delightfully and leaned her face on his palm, declaring herself, "Look enormous enough to sleep."

Just like that, she fell asleep on his palm, forgetting how much appetite she had earlier.

The night passed, and the sun's fresh light splashed on Kwan's face and awakened him. It was the time he found his hand dead. He looked at his hand without bringing himself up, only to find Choi napping cutely in his palm.

He then dropped his head back on the sofa and breathed out relaxingly, leaving Choi to sleep.

A few minutes later, just when he sensed her cheek was moving, he shut his eyes immediately. Choi then awakened, yawned, looked at him sleeping, stood up, and left the living room.

Thereafter, Kwan sat up, recovering his hand back to normal.

Hours later, Kwan advised her, "Stay here for today. And take rest well."

"I'm okay," she assured. However, Kwan could witness the dark circle under her eyes.

"You are not," he asserted, leaving the house for the office.

"Kwanna!" she disappointedly yelled at him.

Meanwhile, when she picked up her phone, she was stunned to read the article saying, "The popular GO's younger son and his wife's intimate night leaked at midnight."

She hurriedly touched the link to read the news details, but her sight caught her, and Woo-sunk was having sex. Unexpectedly, that ended up being the first porn she ever saw in her life. As she was aghast looking at Woo-sunk treating her badly during the sex, she became frozen in shock, realising the reason behind her wound marks all over her body.

Yeong-Kwan received a call from his manager while he was driving.

Hearing the manager, he was shocked. The sudden brake caused the tyre to skid in the middle of the road. He immediately took a U-turn, heading back to his house, as the anxious mixed anger rented his face.

"Choi!"

"Choi!"

He broke inside his house only to find fainted Choi as the porn video was running on the phone.

"Shit!" He sounded tensed, and carrying her, he left the house hurriedly.

At the hospital, after the treatment, the female doctor came out and looked at Yeong Kwan, breathing heavily and suppressing his anger in his fist, looking down at the floor steadily.

"Excuse me," the doctor called.

He looked up at her and scurried to her with expecting eyes. "Is she okay?"

The doctor nodded as if she wasn't sure about it. "Yes." Added the request, "Can you meet me in my room?"

"Sure!" Fluttered Kwan nodded instantly and followed her.

At Woo-Sunk's house, he was pissed off, not knowing how that video leaked overnight.

"How the hell did this leak?" He bit his teeth anxiously and threw his phone on the wall out of tension.

Eunhar, his girlfriend, tried to calm him by offering a hug, but he shoved her away and called Choi using her phone.

"What are you doing?" She asked, trying to snatch the phone away from him.

He felt frustrated and was feeling like his head was going to explode after attempting five missed calls to Choi. He then called Yoeng Kwan, who had forgotten to take his phone with him before following the doctor.

Instead, his manager attended the call and sowed brief milk in Woo-Sunk's stomach.

"Where is Choi, Hyung?"

His words spoke to his apprehension instead of worry.

"Woo-sunk, I don't think you would be a monster like this. Choi is currently in the hospital unconsciously and your brother is going crazy as much as he will kill you no matter what you excuse yourself."

As Kwan's manager informed him, Woo-sunk felt like something rough had struck a line in Woo-sunk's heart. He rushed to the hospital, leaving frustrated Eunhae in the house once the manager gave him the address.

"Judging your anxiety, I hope you do care about her, unlike her husband." That doctor dictated, giving him the details of the possibility of the hypersexuality disorder.

Kwan remained choked in response to reading about the disorder that she might experience once she woke up or even cured herself.

"Furthermore..." The doctor pulled her words hesitatingly, earning Kwan's glance. She then revealed, "Now it's in your hand. Please show her care as much as possible and give her the thought that she has someone to look after her. And... accept her if she tried to approach you sexually instead of throwing her to everyone."

Observing Kwan's silence, the doctor requested, "This disorder might ask for sex often. She can't differentiate the person if she accidentally aroused herself. Please stay by her side instead of..."

"I understood," Kwan said firmly, giving an assured look at the doctor.

"Then good." The doctor voiced relief. He then stood up to leave.

As he came back with a dull face, Woo-sunk snatched his attention. Yeong Kwan's face turned furious, and his steps sped up, wrinkling his fist.

Before his manager glimpsed him, Kwan's fist punched Woo-sunk, causing him to get hit on the wall since he lost his balance just because of Kwan's fired fist.

When Kwan was about to pick a fight with Woo-sunk, his manager gripped him tightly, blocking him from getting further closer to Woo-sunk, who was standing guiltily.

"Leave before he kills you," Kwan's manager warned him as Woo-Sunk witnessed the fuming eyes of Kwan's.

"I did-"

"Leave!" Kwan's manager shouted, knowing Woo-sunk's explanation was nothing but fuel for Kwan's anger.

Having no choice, Woo-sunk left the hospital as Kwan's breath eased little by little, seeing Woo-sunk getting away from him.

A few hours later, Choi awakened to find herself in the hospital. The first face she spotted was Kwan's. Not to delay, her Irish began to shake in horror as her mind jogged with the porn video she watched.

"Are you okay?"

Even his concern-shaded voice appeared as Woo-Sunk's authoritative, rude voice. She started to shiver herself, which confused Kwan.

"Are you okay?" He tried to approach her. She dodged his hand, screaming loudly, scaring to get touched by a man.

The doctors rushed him and sent him outside.

After calming her, the doctor came out and informed him, "It is as we expected. She is now afraid of men. But she is not a child, and I think his harsh attitude hurt her inner thoughts badly. You should avoid meeting her until she recovers."

"What?"

He was extremely conflicted until he remembered yesterday when Choi dictated she was a 16-year-old girl who accidentally transmigrated into her future self.

Realising it was true and seeing her scared like it was her first time, he sighed anxiously.

"We will take care of her. You don't need to worry." The doctor said some comfortable words to him before walking off.

Two days later, the news reached Mr. GO's ear. He hit Woo-sunk using a belt heartlessly in front of his girlfriend, who was the one who leaked the video. That was what Kwan found within a day.

They sent Woo-sunk's girlfriend to jail while putting Woo-sunk in house custody, along with the rule that he could get only one meal per day.

On the other hand, Kwan put flowers in front of Choi's room every day, leaving notes of warm words. Reading it daily, Choi was cured gradually and also with the help of the doctor, who shared her everyday life and how much her husband takes care of him.

30 days passed like this as Choi peeked through the slightly opened door, letting no one know, waiting for Kwan's flowers and notes.

On the 31st day, while she and the doctor were having a nice talk, the doctor showed her their latest tour to Switzerland with her husband.

"Wow!" She admired and exclaimed at seeing the natural beauty of Switcherland.

"Do you like this place?" asked the doctor.

She nodded, admiring the places in the picture.

"Then why are you waiting? Go with your favourite person. I know you peek at him every day for the flowers." The doctor diacted, lifting her brows teasingly at her, causing her to blush shyly.

"It's not like what you think," Choi embarrassedly refused to admit, despite her reddish cheek exposing her true feelings.

"I'm leaving then; let's see again." The doctor left, offering a gentle pat on her head as Choi smiled back at her.

Moon came to the centre while she gazed at the flowers that Kwan left today.
