The Day After Park Left
Key’s Place
Bedroom
Key walks with his head down from a deep rested sleep last night unaware of the rain pouring heavily this early morning.
Checks his watch…
“Oh…six thirty in the morning…
Uuuuhh…
(yawns deeply)
Hhhhaaiimmm…”
Unconsciously, heads toward the balcony and without hesitation slides his hand on the glass door and opens the right side part…and…
“WHHOOAA…Rain…
(immediately closes the door)”
His body shivers from the cold wind, and the heavy rain that has partially soaked his night wardrobe.
He gently draws the heavy drape to his right side to have a view of the atmosphere but could hardly see through the thickness of the rain, but smiles regardless because it’s been so long it hadn’t rain until now.
Just the same, he draws the curtains to the side.
“Ohh…
Time for my vitamins…”
He slowly makes his way to where his supplements are located.
He casually reaches for the cabinet knobs – opens it; blindly gets the supplement bottles, gets one and toss it to his mouth, and chews.
Suddenly…
“Ppsshhwwwaa…
(spits the tablet)…
Whha..hhehhrreee…”
He presses the water faucet, puts a large amount of water in his mouth, and gargles.
Three times of gargling, he goes back to the location of his supplements and checks the bottle – and…
“What is this…?”
He said out loud.
Then checks it out again just to make sure – reads it out loud…
“Temodar…?
Who…
(checks the prescribing doctor)?
Oh no…
Hyeonggie…Why…?”
Key’s chest tightens and his throat dries up.
He starts to sweat profusely – dripping to his body.
He pauses and takes a deep breath – gathering strength and walks out of the room towards another room.
Searches for the contact details of the doctor printed on the bottle.
“No…Please…
Has he…?
I need to call this doctor…
Good thing I know him…”
The number rings…
“Hello…Dr. Huezmenn…?
This is Key…”
“Oh…Hello…
Mr. Key, it is a pleasure accepting your call.
How may I help you…?”
“I just want some information…
I know your keep your patients confidential
but I hope you can make some exceptions for me…”
“Oh…
Why what happened…?
And who…?”
“I accidentally took a pill…
and I know what it is because our company is one of
the partners of producing this kind of drugs…”
“What drug is it…?”
“It’s Temodar…”
“Yeah…
For Grade 4, Brain Tumor patients…
and why did you…
anyway, carry on…”
“Kindly provide me the name of your patients you have
issued this drugs…
Wait…Hold on…
Let me check the date….
(twist the bottle)
Here it is…
February 15 this year…
Just recently…
Can you check as I have it with me…
I just want to make sure…
and since when you start with the prescription…?
Lastly, are you the only doctor prescribing this patient…”
“Alright…Hold on…
Let me check my records….”
Key nervously taps his lips with his fingers.
In a flash, he remember the same incident that happened months past during one of Park’s visits.
And connecting the dots…
It worries him deeply…
“Mr. Key…
Mr Key…?
Hello…
Are you still there…?”
Key taken aback…
Replies…
“Am sorry…
Am here…
Yes Doctor Huezmenn…?
Please tell me…”
“Patient’s name is Mr. Park Hyeong Seop…
I started prescribing it to him last year – December and
prior to that were just pain killers.
However, the tumor stage increases to 4.
And yes, I am his only physician for this illness…
Do you know Mr. Park , Mr. Key…?”
“Yes…
And thank you so much for this information Doctor…
And one more favor…”
“Sure… What is it…?”
“Prognosis…”
“1 to 5 years…”
“Thank you so much Doctor Huezmenn…
Greatly, appreciate your help…
I might call you every now and then…”
“You are welcome…
Sure, call me anytime…”
“Bye…”
“Bye…”
“DAMN IT…!!
HYEONGGIE…!!
WHY…
KEEP IT FROM ME…!!”
