"This is why I tell you not to over work yourself. But do you listen?Of course not. My words just goes in one ear and out the other." Lisa nags on endlessly like a fall from a canyon, throwing a hand in the air."You even had Taehyung call in a doctor. "

"I'm not."

"You're doing this on purpose aren't you? I get that you're stressed over your parents but pushing yourself to the point of collapsing? What would've happened if Taehyung wasn't by your side?"

You rub the area between your eyebrows like you're about to have a headache.

"I'd be road kill." You murmer.

It's funny how she isn't even putting too much thought regarding Taehyung's ability to have a doctor over with just one call.

It's currently seven in the evening. So that means you were out for three hours.

Lisa extends a glass of water to which you accept silently.

You're currently in bed with no memories of how you got here.

But according to Lisa, it was Taehyung who carried you back after you had blacked out.

They left shortly after making sure you were okay.

It's no lie that you've been testing your limits the past few days.

Purposely staying up all night only to distract yourself with the cafe in the day time. 

All these stress, sleepless nights, negative thoughts?

Are due to some family issues that you rather keep to yourself.

After taking a sip, you place the glass on the night stand and release an exhausted sigh.

A snicker ticks out of Lisa's tongue and that's when you know she's about go get serious.

"Listen Y/n. " The bed dips with her weight and she looks you straight in the eye. "You know I love you a lot right? I'd even pull out anyone's hair if I knew they bothered you. But there are also times when I just want hit you with a hammer and tear your limbs apart. You know that too right?"

You lift an eyebrow. "Your point?"

After staying silent for a few seconds, Lisa draws back and drags her finger through her hair, sighing in a defeated manner.

"What I'm trying to say is that I can't stand seeing you like this. Sometimes it makes me feel useless. I want to help my bestfriend, but how am I suppose to do that if she doesn't want to be helped?"

Lips glued to a thin line, your gaze diverts else where than her expecting eyes.

You know she means well. But there are just some things better off not bringing up.

You have no plans on saying anything tonight and she notices.

So like always, Lisa doesn't push. Instead, she lets you know you can always count on her to be around.

"I'm here if you need me." Her voice comes out softly. When you look back, a small smile hovers her lips. "I won't force you to tell me anything but just know that I'll be here if you need someone to talk to okay?"
