Chapter 199 - Mental Health (1/2)
After she had stepped into the room after that strenuous training session, Soohyun found every part of her body aching, and stretching her limbs, she closed the door behind her.
Seeing that the lights to the room was on and Han Minhyun was still working on his laptop managed to surprise her. Glancing at the watch, Soohyun read the time— 5:12.
Then, looking back at him, she voiced out, ”Working this late in unhealthy. You should be sleeping by now.”
From what she had noticed, Han Minhyun got very little of proper amount of sleep, and after all that exhaustion he might feel after the amount of work he does, he definitely needed more sleep.
”I was waiting for you. Take a bath, and then, we can fall asleep,” Minhyun stated.
”Waiting for me? I am not a kid, Minhyun, and I can manage on my own. You should try to sleep more,” Soohyun vocalised— her voice showing how much concerned she felt at this moment.
Nonetheless, Minhyun's words touched her. Although he could have used the excuse of work or some other important matter, he mentioned that it was because of her, and biting her lower lip subtly, she stopped that smile from forming upon her face.
”I am fine,” Minhyun stated before staring down at his laptop.
Those words did not sound nice to Lee Soohyun and made her feel as if there was a wall between her and Minhyun— a walk she did not want.
She wanted for Han Minhyun to be comfortable around her and him to confide within her. Then again, considering how he grew up and his personality is, she knew that he would have a hard time doing so.
A part of her understood that he was not doing this because he wasn't comfortable with her or did not trust her; He was keeping things from her because he did not want to worry or burden her.
Soohyun took in a deep breath. Since Han Minhyun was being like this, it meant that she had to use her own abilities to get him to open up to her.
Even though Minhyun might not be the same as her, Soohyun recalled on how she was desperate to have someone close to her whom she wanted to pour out her feelings to when things got tough for her, and maybe Minhyun secretly wanted for such a person.
Even if it was mentally, Soohyun wanted to support him, as currently, with her physical state, she would be useless to him.
”Stop with those thoughts of yours; Don't forget I get to sense your feelings,” Minhyun vocalised, causing Soohyun to smile at him.
”This time you got to sense them because I let you. Sooner or later, I will learn to mask my inner emotions from you,” Soohyun stated as she winked towards Han Minhyun.
