My Saviour | Woo Do-hwan

She couldn't help but feel a little nervous as she had only ever told Yuri and didn't know what he would think of it all and although she was unsure her heart told her she could trust him and she always could.

"No, It's Okay It's probably best I get it off of my chest again anyway and explain everything so that you can understand everything that happened in the cafe and why."

With another deep breath, Liliana collected her thoughts and began to tell Hwan about her story.

"When I was seventeen though I was happy three months later things dipped again, I found myself becoming increasingly tired throughout the day to the point I was falling asleep even if I had had a good nights rest. For a while, I was going back and forth to the doctors until I was eventually diagnosed with Narcolepsy a condition that causes me to uncontrollably fall asleep up to fifteen times a day and I can have hallucinations because of it.

Fast forward to now and that's what had happened in the bar I couldn't help but fall asleep and end up falling out of the chair, but thankfully you stopped me from hitting the floor. 

But what I hate most about having Narcolepsy is where ever I go If I end up falling asleep people tend to stare at me, treat me like garbage and look at me as If I am some sort of circus act and it really hurts but that is not the only thing."

"... It started not so long ago, I decided to leave my home in Dublin, Ireland. In the few months before I had left home I had a sense that something wasn't right, somehow home no longer felt like home and I felt a heavy aurora around me and I wasn't wrong to doubt it."

"When I first met my now ex-husband we were happy like any other couple and even more so when he had me to marry him. Of course, at the time I said yes, and I agreed to marry him but if I had known what was to come... but I know that can't change anything now."

Up until recently we had been married for two years but just before the end of our marriage, he became the man I no longer knew. He started to stay out late at night, he had taken to drink and ended up losing his job and became angry and he started to take his anger out on me, I had to get away so I came here."

Feeling his heart shatter Hwan wrapped his arms around Liliana which she gratefully accepted and returned.

I'm sorry that you've had to go through all of that.", he said softly.

Liliana could tell by the sound of his voice that he was disheartened by what she had told him and didn't mean to put a downer on things but was glad for the first time in a long time someone was willing to listen to her and was glad to have gotten it off of her chest.

"It's alright, don't worry It's not your fault. But I'm slowly healing and learning to love myself and that's all that matters right now."

For a while, the two talked getting to know each other and found they have a lot in common from likes to interests.

"I feel like I should have recognised you sooner because in all honesty you are one of my favourite actors but the first thing I do is break down in front of you and tell you my entire life story and you didn't have to listen to all of that, I'm sorry."

"Hey, It's alright. It's alright I wanted to help and make sure you were okay and you looked like you needed someone to talk to but I'm glad to hear you enjoy my work.", he replied sincerely.
