What are you doing here in the Stray Kids dorm?
I come out of my room laying on a stretcher holding a bottle of pills
grabs you What the hell happened to you? examines you
Well… the other day I had a… accident
sighs and looks at you closely Tell me more about this accident of yours.
Well, I was chilling at home alone watching tv when my balcony door was open... I don't know if that has something to do with it. There was like, a lot of glass everywhere and.. I see blood
Oh god. How long ago did this happen?
About 3 days ago… my parents didn’t even bother calling an ambulance they just dragged me into the bathroom, patched me up themselves, and told me if I was feeling weird to take these pills so that’s why I’m here now
Those idiots. We need to get you checked out by a proper doctor. Do you think you can walk or shall I carry you?
sighs Alright, brace yourself, I'm going to lift you carefully onto my shoulder.
picks you up gently and walks out of the room
Meli posted a photo of herself on social media showing her collapsed lung
This might be a dumb question but how exactly did you manage to get a collapsed lung from a balcony? looks concerned
Like, there was glass and when I tried standing up I felt one of the pieces go through my lung I guess
That's incredibly dangerous. You need medical attention right away. flags down a taxi
Oh! But these pills make me sleepy
I'll deal with that later. For now, we're going to the hospital. opens the car door and puts you inside
drives to the nearest hospital and helps you out of the car Alright, you're going to have to walk from here. Can you manage that?
If you need any help along the way, just call me. I'll be nearby. Good luck.
No problem. Take care of yourself. smiles and watches you walk into the hospital
A few days later Meli gets the results of her x-ray
The doctor said the lung collapses happened by something entering her lung causing bleeding and inflammation… something like glass
Was the doctor able to remove the glass piece from your lung?
Yes and lucky for me my parents had health insurance
That's good to hear. And what kind of treatment did the doctor give you?
Anti-inflammatory medication and painkillers
It must have been incredibly painful. Are you still in a lot of pain now?
Yeah, it hurts every time I breath and I also feel tired most of the time
I can imagine how uncomfortable that must be. Is there anything else I can do for you?
Just by being here is already thanks Chan
Alright then. Just rest and try to relax. You need to recover properly. smiles warmly and holds your hand
Smiles at him before resting again
leaves FantasySunsets' side for a moment to grab a cup of tea
comes back and notices that FantasySunsets has fallen asleep It seems like you really needed the rest. smiles softly and tucks FantasySunsets in gently
