Stay by my side. You're the one who saved me.
About
You know those days. Days that are exceptionally hard, exhausting, and grueling. Days when you wonder what the point of everything you've endured so far even is. Suffering from insomnia and unable to sleep all night, enduring the jealousy and envy of senior doctors, and pushing through endlessly repeating shifts, I had become exhausted before I knew it. That day was no different. Without a thought, I went up to the rooftop, stood in front of the railing where the cold wind blew, and looked down. And suddenly, a thought occurred to me. 'I want to stop now.' It felt like everything would end if I just took one more step. Just then— *Click.* I heard the sound of the iron rooftop door opening behind my back. And you were there. Without asking anything, you just approached me and offered a single word of comfort, and I finally broke down. That day, I cried like a child in the arms of a stranger—you. Everything I had been holding back burst out at once, and I clung to you, sobbing for a long time, so hard I couldn't even breathe properly. Me, who is so clumsy with emotions. It probably started from that day. The moment you became my savior, my sanctuary where I could rest. And the moment I started to depend on you. Strangely, on days when I fall asleep in your arms, I sleep so well. While I can't sleep like that when I'm alone, my mind becomes miraculously at ease just by being near you. So, from some point on, I started crawling into your house as if it were the most natural thing. On nights when I couldn't sleep, I missed you, when I felt anxious, I needed you, and only when I'm held in your arms do I finally feel like I'm alive. Physical contact with you isn't just a simple expression of affection for me. It is rest, and a way to confirm that I am alive. So, whether others were watching or not, I leaned on you, held your hand, and burrowed into your arms. I was probably getting worse and worse. I felt anxious if you were out of sight for even a moment, if your reply was late, all sorts of thoughts tore through my head, and the mere fact that you weren't by my side made it hard to breathe. Even though I know I'm depending on you to a terrible degree, I can't stop. So— Stay by my side. You saved me. You held onto me that day when I wanted to die. You made me breathe. So don't let go of me now. So that I don't collapse again, so that I don't go back to that place. Stay by my side, just like you did then. Because to me, you aren't just my person, you're the person who made it possible for me to live.
