Chapter 382 – Life Support (4)
When the woman started to let out a painful moan.
Seo Ju-hwan instinctively grasped her symptoms and snatched the envelope from Seo Ju-hee’s hand her.
“Get out of the way, both of you.”
After pouring out all the ice cream in the bag, I pushed the two aside. He held the empty bag close to the woman’s mouth and spoke.
“Can you hear me? Breathe slowly.”
“Oh, brother? What are you doing?”
“Shh. Everyone a little bit off It’s like having a panic attack.”
Panic attack.
It is a seizure that occurs suddenly due to depression or fear. At this time, the subject feels extreme fear and suffers from hyperventilation due to a sudden rise in heart rate, but helping them breathe slowly was a more effective method than going to the emergency room right away or taking them to the hospital.
“It’s okay. It’s okay, so breathe slowly.”
Seo Joo-hwan spoke in her low voice her and activated her special ability ‘Whisper’.
[The target’s affinity level is ‘B+’. The effect of Whisper is increased.]
For some reason, the favorability rating of the woman I was seeing for the first time today reached B+. But that’s not something to worry about right now. Seo Joo-hwan continued to speak.
[Talk to the other person’s unconscious.]
[There is an unknown trust in the user’s words.]
“Slowly, once, twice. No one hurt That’s right, slowly….”
In some cases, when a panic attack begins, the person feels threatened with death. So it was important to reassure the other person. He gently patted her on the back of her, using a ‘resting hand’ to induce her breathing slowly. A warm light that calmed her mind and body flowed into her body.
“Kuuuuu” Whoa…….”
The woman’s breathing gradually eased. The wheezing sound diminishes and the panting breath calms her down. The plastic bag tightly attached to his mouth her swelled up a little and then shrunk repeatedly.
“Slowly. Exhale long and inhale. Right. You don’t hurt anyone, so you don’t have to worry. Sup, ha. Sup, ha. Follow along slowly. Yes, you are doing well.”
“Seuuuuuzuuuuu…….”
Was it the effect of the Whisper and the stabilizing touch?
It took a few minutes before the woman’s breathing completely calmed down. The expression that she seemed to die at any moment regained relative comfort.
Eun-yul broke out in a cold sweat and raised her head.
‘A warm voice. Who… ?’
Who is it that reassures you with such a friendly voice? Sweat got into her eyes her and she couldn’t see her face her well. However, the outline of the man’s face beyond the blurry vision felt somehow familiar.
‘… Author?’
Eun-yul lost her mind at the last thought.

Seo Joo-hwan picked up the woman and moved her to Seo Joo-hee’s bed her. I couldn’t leave a distraught woman on the floor in her hallway her.
Seo Joo-hee looked at her woman lying on her own bed with worried eyes, then turned to Seo Ju-hwan.
“Brother, what is that? How to get a seizure…….”
“I just put a plastic bag over my mouth while telling her to be at ease.”
Seo Joo-hwan said indifferently. Then he suddenly looked back at the woman and smiled bitterly. It was because he remembered the past that he had forgotten for a long time. He said, recalling his past experiences his.
“When I have a panic attack, I have a hard time controlling my breathing because of hyperventilation. That’s why I blocked the outside air with vinyl.”
Then, instead of the oxygen that was supplied more than necessary, the person exhaled carbon dioxide is re-inhaled, and the oversupply of oxygen to the brain can be prevented. For this reason, people with panic disorder always carry a plastic bag.
Seo Joo-hee, who heard the explanation, nodded her head with her face at the bottom of the shrine.
“I see. But how does your brother know that?”
“Just what… The main character of the novel I’m writing now also has panic disorder. You haven’t read my novel, have you?”
“Oh.”
Seo Joo-hee, who was just caught, avoided her gaze at her.
Meanwhile, Han Soo-ah and Jang Deok-hoon looked at him with admiration.
“Hwan-i oppa is amazing.”
“As expected, my brother. He saved people with the knowledge he gained from data research.”
“It’s a little too much praise to say he saved it.”
“Anyway, wouldn’t it have been more painful if it wasn’t for you? All of this is thanks to my brother’s thorough research on data on a daily basis. I will have to work even harder.”
Jang Deok-hoon, who became a disciple mode, made a fuss.
Seo Ju-hwan shyly scratched the corners of his eyes.
‘Actually, it’s not because of the data research.’
It was never because of data research that he was able to deal with it skillfully. It was literally because he was used to it.
‘I had a hard time back then.’
Before returning, he even contemplated suicide because of the unhappiness that constantly came to him. He was mentally exhausted that much, and in fact he suffered from psychological disorders such as panic disorder, depression, and social phobia.
‘Because of that, he went to a psychiatrist for several years.’
He went in and out of the hospital and received both drug treatment and psychological treatment. Fortunately, he himself was active in treatment, so although he was not cured, his seizure symptoms his quickly disappeared.
In the end, the fact that he was able to cope with the previous seizure skillfully was thanks to the familiarity of a person who had suffered from the disease himself, not through data research.
[Master…….]
Lucy called to him in a worried voice.
Seo Joo-hwan shook his head inwardly and calmed down Lucy.
‘It’s okay. It’s been a while, but what?’
When he said it as if it was nothing, Lucy was silent for a moment, then answered in a bright voice.
[… ] That’s right. Because I am by your side now!]
‘Yes. Lucy is always with me, so don’t worry.’
[Yes, Lucy will always be with her master her.]
Seo Joo-hwan smiled and thanked Lucy. Being on my side unconditionally gave me a sense of mental stability in many ways.
‘Anyway, I would have thought that woman was the silver leader.’
Silver leader. Seo Joo-hee and Han Soo-ah were referring to Eun-seol, the former leader of the girl group Swing Lady. He had seen Eun-seol at a concert with the two of them during his last year of vacation after returning.
However, now that I see it, the ‘silver leader’ was a woman with whom he was acquainted. Not now, but in the past, before the return.
[I lived next door, didn’t you know?]
‘… Your impressions are so different. I’m rather surprised that Juhee and Sua recognized that person.’
Even so, her appearance when she was active as a celebrity and when she was not was completely different. As a celebrity, she was a bright and bright person who went well with summer cool tones, but when Seo Joo-hwan lived next door to her, she always had a panda-like impression with deep dark circles reaching down to the bottom of her eyes her. The fact that her long hair of her, which used to come down to her waist of her, became bobbed, also played a part in giving a different impression of her.
‘And just because we live next door doesn’t mean we’re close.’
It was supposed to be a greeting in passing, but we didn’t even know each other’s names. She had never had a seizure in front of him like she does now, so she was not particularly entangled.
However, Seo Ju-hwan once asked her for a favor.
[Please?]
‘That, to Ji-kyung before returning… I asked her to lie to me about moving.’
[Ah, that’s what you mean. Yu Ji-gyeong thought that her inability her to get a job was because she was entangled with her master her, so he cut ties with her …….]
‘Okay. Let’s stop talking about that.’
It’s not a memory I want to recall. Now that I think about it, Han Soo-ah’s death and Yu Ji-gyeong’s inability to find a job were not due to his misfortune his, but at that time, he blamed everything on himself. No matter how hard it was mentally, it is a bit embarrassing.
So while she was exchanging conversations with Lucy, she finished presenting the plaque to Jang Deok-hoon. As expected, Jang Deok-hun smiled broadly while holding a plaque in the shape of a fountain pen.
“I feel like I can feel it now. When he first wrote it, he hadn’t even thought of winning the prize…….”
“Brother, congratulations!”
“Congratulations on the award, Deokhoon! I’m having fun watching it too!”
Seo Joo-hee and Han Soo-ah congratulated them by clapping on both sides. Although it was only an excellence award, not the grand prize or the grand prize, it was a meaningful award to him.
Seo Joo-hwan put his arm around Jang Deok-hoon’s neck who was laughing shyly and said.
“Congratulations.”
“Hehe. It’s all thanks to my good teacher. Thank you, brother.”
“You did a good job, man. Anyway, don’t be nervous just because you won an award. There’s still a long way until it’s finished. If you let go, it’s a moment to go to hell.”
“Yes!”
Deokhun Jang nodded his head with a firm expression.
Meanwhile, Seo Joo-hee kicked Seo Joo-hwan’s leg with her pouty face and scolded him.
“On a good day, let’s just say nice things, please!”
“Oh, this is real. Look at how cheap it is to have a boyfriend. Deokhun, do you really like him?”
“Haha… Yes. That will be fine.”
“How are you?”
Deokhun Jang answers without hesitation.
Seo Joo-hwan liked Jang Deok-hun’s attitude when he answered right away even though he wondered what he liked about this. Yeah, unlike what you do to your older brother, see if you are good to your boyfriend. I just hoped that there would be no complications and that we would get along well.
It was when we were laughing and talking like that.
“Yes…”
The woman who had been lying down for a while made a sound of pain. She woke up to the loud noise. Then she rubbed her eyes as if she was sleepy and lifted her body up.
Seo Joo-hee and Han Soo-ah, who were nearby, looked back angrily.
“Ah, sister woke up.”
“Sister, are you okay?”
Seo Joo-hee and Han Soo-ah moved closer to the bed.
“… Hick?!”
A surprised voice came out of the woman who saw the two of them. Confirming her unfamiliar face her, her unfamiliar space her, she looked around her with a puzzled face. Then, when he saw Seo Joo-hee and Han Soo-ah again, his face began to grow pale.
Seo Joo-hwan grabbed the backs of the two women who approached the bed and pulled them. The two of them came along and made a surprised sound.
“That person is surprised. Both are out I’m sorry, but Deokhun, take them out for a while.”
“Yes, brother. Guys, let’s get out.”
“Yes. I can’t help it.”
“Call me later when you feel better, brother.”
Seo Joo-hee and Han Soo-ah looked sad, but they vacated their seats obediently. Neither of them were selfish enough to put their fanaticism first for a sick person.
Seo Joo-hwan brought a chair and sat facing the woman. She seemed embarrassed by this situation, but she didn’t even say a word, she just looked at him.
“Hey, are you feeling okay?”
I opened my mouth first to reassure the woman.
She said nothing but nodded her head slightly.
“I brought it because I couldn’t leave it in the hallway. Among the kids who went out a while ago, there was a girl with ponytails, right? Because this is her house her. He is my younger brother.”
“…….”
“I was going to call an ambulance…….”
Flinch.
At the word ambulance, the woman shuddered.
Seo Joo-hwan quickly added while feeling suspicious about that attitude.
“I didn’t call him because he looked like he was just sleeping. He looked very tired because of his severe dark circles of him.”
“Ah…”
A small voice came out.
“Oh, thank you… Thank you….”
The clumsy woman bowed her head, perhaps to express her gratitude to her.
It was only then that Seo Joo-hwan was able to guess the reason why the woman spoke so little.
‘Is it a speech impediment?’
She was an idol, so maybe she wasn’t born with it. She sings as well and has appeared in some variety shows, but it makes no sense that she has a congenital speech impediment. It was assumed that he had a panic attack, but it seemed to be a temporary disability caused by psychological factors.
Come to think of it, even before her return her, it had been a long time since he started talking to the woman. A few months from now, when we bumped into each other, we would just bow our heads, and the woman would say “Hello” First. Her pronunciation Her was n’t good then, but her voice Her was much clearer than now.
I was lost in thought for a while, recalling the time before the return of her, but I felt the woman’s gaze keep glancing at her face of her. She could have just looked at her confidently, but she looked very intimidated.
‘Tsk. It’s not like other people’s work.’
Before the regression, she remembered herself and felt sorry for her along with her sense of identity. He resisted the urge to bite his tongue of her. A person who is psychologically tempered is bound to react sensitively to small actions.
‘I’d better send it back for now.’
In my heart, I wanted to talk more. In a way, it was an old relationship and there were things I was personally curious about.
But given the woman’s condition her, it would be best to send her back as soon as possible.
“Now…”
It was time to talk to a woman like that. She opened her mouth in a stuttering tone.
“Now, writer, sir… M-right?”
“Yes?”
“Seo-hwan… Me, Yu, Yul…….”
Seo Ju-hwan tilted his head. He looked at his face her and said he was a writer, so he must have seen the broadcast.
“Your name is Yul? Eun-yul?”
The woman nodded her head. No, I thought she was nodding, but she shook her head as if it wasn’t. She frowned as if she was frustrated and squeezed her own neck.
Seo Joo-hwan spoke softly.
“It’s okay, so please speak slowly. Oh, my name is Seo Joo-hwan. As you said, writer Seohwan is right.”
“Ah……!”
In an instant, Eunyul’s face brightened as she exclaimed.
Seo Joo-hwan smiled and asked.
“Have you seen my work?”
Nod!
His head His moved vigorously up and down.
“L, fan.”
“Wow, really? You were a fan I didn’t expect to meet you here.”
“I-I…….”
It seemed that he had something to say.
Seo Joo-hwan patiently waited for her words.
‘Should I use a helping hand?’
She thought about it for a moment, but she gave up. She needs physical contact to use her skills of her, but she seemed to be wary of even holding hands.
Soon, Eunyul stuttered his words.
“Yu, Yul, Yul. Your nickname…”
“Yes, Yul. Ah, your nickname, not your name, is Yul?”
Nod!
“Oh, today, comment, everything, reply…….”
“Ah!”
It was a reply to a comment, so it was only then that I was able to understand exactly what he was saying. There should be one or two nicknames with the word ‘yul’ in them! On the other hand, there was only one comment he had recently replied to.
Seo Joo-hwan asked with a surprised face.
“Is Eun-yul Mr. Yul-yul? Do you always leave comments?”
Nod!
