“This woman is crazy, I don’t understand her. Whatever she does, it makes me somehow all stutter and strange” 

 

 

 


It is Dahyun’s usual session with her psychologist. Dahyun starts, her voice trembling with a mix of frustration and confusion. " I barely know her, but she keeps doing these things that just... throw me off completely."


Her psychologist nods encouragingly, pen poised over a notepad, ready to jot down any important details.

 


Dahyun continues, her words tumbling out in a rush. Her therapist raises an eyebrow, signalling for Dahyun to continue.

 


"And then... and then it happened a third time! Also, the divorce with Kyungsoo, everything happened in two weeks" Dahyun exclaims, her frustration evident in her tone. "She just... she kissed me on the lips twice. I didn't know what to do. I froze, and now every time I see her or even think about her, it's like my mind goes blank, and I can't think straight."

 


Dahyun's psychologist listens attentively, making occasional notes as Dahyun pours out her feelings.


"I know I should probably confront her or set boundaries or something, but I don't even know how to approach the situation, I said once but she doesn’t listen" Dahyun admits, her voice tinged with vulnerability. "I just feel so... so confused and uncomfortable, and I don't know what to do."

 


Her psychologist offers a reassuring smile and leans forward, a thoughtful expression on their face. "Dahyun, I sense there might be more to your feelings towards Sana than just discomfort. Do you feel something towards her?"

 


Dahyun's eyes widen slightly at the question, caught off guard by the directness of the inquiry. She shifts uncomfortably in her seat, her mind racing as she tries to formulate a response.

 


"I... I'm not sure," she finally admits, her voice barely above a whisper. "I mean, I've always prided myself on acting logically, especially when it comes to relationships. And I had my divorce recently, it's like... it's like there's this... this something that I can’t pinpoint."

 


Her therapist nods, encouraging her to continue.

 


"It's not like anything I've felt before," Dahyun continues, her words hesitant yet revealing. "But at the same time, it's confusing because I've always relied on trust in my relationships. Like with Kyungsoo, for example but it failed I guess"

 


The mention of her ex-husband's name brings a pang of discomfort to Dahyun's chest, but she pushes through it, determined to confront her feelings head-on.
"With Kyungsoo, I thought I had it all figured out. We were friends first, and then we got married because it made sense, logically. But looking back, I realize now that there was always something missing. And then he said that we didn’t have something... like spark, passion, whatever you want to call it."

 

Her therapist listens intently, sensing the depth of Dahyun's emotions bubbling to the surface.

 


"And with Sana," Dahyun continues, her voice growing stronger with each word, "it's like she's awakened something in me that I didn't even know was there. It's terrifying and exhilarating all at once."

 

 


The psychologist leans back in their chair, a knowing look in their eyes. "Dahyun, it sounds like you're beginning to confront some uncomfortable truths about yourself and your past relationships. This newfound awareness can be daunting, but it's also an opportunity for you," the psychologist says, their voice gentle yet firm.

 


Dahyun takes a moment to process the psychologist's words, the weight of their implications settling heavily upon her shoulders. As she searches within herself for answers, the psychologist poses a probing question.

 


"Has there ever been a time in your life when you've felt this way before?" eyes fixed unwaveringly on Dahyun.

 


Dahyun pauses, her brow furrowing in deep contemplation. Memories of her past relationships flit through her mind, each one lacking the depth and intensity she now finds herself longing for. And then, with a resigned sigh, she offers her response.

 


"I... I don't think so," Dahyun admits, her voice barely above a whisper. "I've always relied on being practical and level-headed, especially when it comes to matters of the heart. But when I look back on my past……… ” Dahyun stopped to find the reason and explanation until

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


"You've never truly been in love," the psychologist said gently, words hanging in the air, laden with both empathy and understanding.
