She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 552 - TREATING A FRIEND

While the two of them talked outside of the house, Cayenne was also talking to Luiz over the phone. He was currently free which makes it easier for them to converse. The doctor asked him several questions to get to know more about Rissy Chan before making his diagnosis and think of treatments.

After some time, Chris and Stefan walked in but Luiz was still not done talking. If it wasn't for his next class, the call would probably run for a long time. Compared to Chris, Luiz had spent a lot of time with Rissy as his teacher and he was a very observant person – as long as he's not distracted about something.

"So, what do you say?" Cayenne asked the doctor if he has concluded something after gathering so much information.

"Based on my knowledge, Ms. Chan has a common post-traumatic stress disorder. Yes, this is common to many people who experience trauma but, in her case, the events from she was young, the cause of her current situation plus the news of Mrs. Dumrique's abduction, these all piled up like a mountain pressing on her."

"Why am I included in this?" Cayenne asked in confusion. "I didn't do anything to her."

"Just to remind you Mrs. Dumrique, she was kidnapped and was treated maliciously. When she heard the news of your kidnapping, this must have triggered something in her which made her retreat from the presence of everyone. Her mind wouldn't want to acknowledge that these things happen which was why, she kept on talking about her dates with sir Chris – the things that put her mind at ease."

"So, what are we going to do now?" Chris asked in worry. "Can it be treated?"

"Of course, but that is if the patient is willing to be treated. The suggestion of staying is indeed better. I'll have to talk to her later once she wakes up."

The four of them sat in the living room, the three were looking worried while the other was calm and composed, thinking of treatments which will be effective for her current patient.

Since they didn't know when she'd wake up, they decided to play some board games. Chris and Stefan were playing chess while Cayenne and the doctor were playing scrabble. Not long after, Rissy's parents came home with some stuff and so, they told them of why the doctor was there.

"Doc, thank you so much for coming to our aid. But please don't tell her that you are a doctor." Rissy's mother stated, her eyes almost tearing up while speaking. "My daughter is afraid of doctors. We befriended one psychologist before but she died not long ago and my daughter didn't like any other doctor so, if you tell her about your profession, she'd be devastated and would probably throw a tantrum."

"Don't worry. I know what to do." The doctor reassured them and smiled.

Rissy's parents started preparing dinner, marinating the meat that needed to be marinated and chopping the veggies that needed to be chopped. They also sliced some fruits and gave it to their guests.

It was almost four in the afternoon when Rissy woke up. She didn't to make any noise for them to know because Chris was already running upstairs to get to his girlfriend. Ever since he started his vacation, he had been coming in and out of this house. He's like a family already to them and they even gave him a spare key to their house.

"Riz, someone's here. She wanted to talk to you." Chris stated but Rissy only looked at him with a straight face. "Do you want to go out?" This time, her eyes lit up in happiness.

"Are we going on a date?" Rissy asked with her face blushing from excitement. "You said we'd go on a date before my birthday."

"Yes, we'll go on a date after talking to our friends."

"Okay." Rissy stood up and walked towards her closet. "Which do you think looks prettier on me?" she showed the inside of her closet which was full of beautiful dresses and coats. "I think I like this better."

"Let's choose the clothes after talking to our guests, okay? I'll help you check which one is prettier but I think you're prettier than the clothes."

"Really?"

"Hn. Really." Chris reasserted to assure her. If you look at them, they're like a couple having normal conversation regarding their date but if you knew when her birthday was and the current date, it's more than enough for you to know that something's wrong with her current mental situation.

Chris brought Rissy downstairs and as soon as she saw Cayenne, her eyes really sparkled in recognition and happiness. It was a genuine happiness that didn't come from a mentally unstable patient. She really looked like she has come to her senses again. "Yenyen. I am so happy. I am so happy you are back." She only spoke to Cayenne, ignoring the other men who were looking at her.

"I'm happy to see you, too." Cayenne replied and hugged the woman back. She felt fine under her touch. Obviously, Chris took care of her to his utmost capability. "By the way, this my friend Oliver. He's here to talk to you because I told him that I have a very nice friend here who helped my brother a lot."

"Nice to meet you." Rissy smiled to Oliver but soon, her attention was brought back to Cayenne again.

"Mrs. - Yen, shall we talk outside with just the three of us?" Doctor Nelson suggested with a signal of his hand.

"That would be great. It's nice to get some fresh air once in a while." Cayenne replied and stood up.

"We'll just stay here." Stefan and Chris spoke at the same time which made Rissy giggled.

The three walked outside while the two men followed them with their eyes. As soon as they got out, they stood up and walked to the door, eavesdropping to the conversation.

"This is not good." Stefan muttered.

"I know but I want to see how he would deal with my girlfriend."

"I'm sure my wife won't let any harm befall to your woman."

"I'm still worried.." The two of them took a peek of the trio and saw them standing at the lawn, talking about some nonsense that they couldn't really hear and to their horror, Rissy suddenly collapsed in the arms of the doctor.
