Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

Tina put her hands together at the mention of him. She looked at Luca with her panic-stricken eyes as if she was pleading for
help. “I don't know what happened, I just can't let him go. Do you think Amur and I... We've only met a few times, but why does
he appear in my dreams? I've never dreamt before no matter how long I slept, but I dream every day now and I don't know what
to do. Dr. Craw, I know he won't return, so I want to forget him. However, the more I try to forget him, the more he appears in my
dreams. Do you know what that feels like? I thought that his face would slowly fade away from my memories after not seeing him
for some time, but I later realized that wasn't the case. He's still stuck in my mind. Not only that, but he's engraved in my
memory. What do you think I should do?" she said helplessly.
Luca sighed as she had been through what Tina was experiencing.
In the three years when she was on the Island of Despair after being kidnapped, Luke's face had never faded from her memories
because she dreamt of him every night.
Occasionally, she was fortunate enough to have sweet dreams, but most of the time, the dreams were about parting with Luke in
various ways.
The feeling of being controlled by dreams was not fun.
People could not control their dreams, yet dreams could control the subconscious minds of the ones sleeping. They constantly
carved an image of a person or a thing in their minds.
That was what Tina was going through now. She wanted to forget someone by not seeing or hearing them, but her subconscious
mind refused to do so, which was why she often dreamt of Amur.
A duel between a person's conscious and subconscious mind could be very tiring.
"Tina, I think you need to see a therapist," said Luca.
She was almost driven crazy by her dreams in those three years, but fortunately, her faith was strong and she had support from
the people around her. There were also many things for her to do there and courses for her to release her tension, so she was
able to overcome it.
However, Tina's circumstances were different. Luca had her daughter by her side, so she could vent out when she was upset,
but Tina could only distract herself with work.

It seemed that distracting herself with work was no longer working for her, so it would be better for her to receive therapy from a
professional.
Merely venting her feelings to someone would not cut it.
She knew she needed therapy too, but she also knew that she was not one to trust easily. Perhaps seeing a therapist would not
be much of a help.
She may not be able to pour her heart out to the therapist as she had always kept her image of a cold but capable secretary no
matter whom she was talking to.
“Being busy is not an excuse. You still have the weekends, and two sessions a month won't take up much of your time. Tina, you
can't just find an excuse because you think you can't go through with it. You may not be able to open up to the therapist at first,
but you have to trust them. They're professionals, so they'll guide you and help you every step of the way. Give them a chance,
and give yourself a chance to be free," said Luca.
She knew that there was only so much a therapist could do to help her, and in the end, it would all come down to her.
As for Nina, she had seen countless therapists before, but none of them helped with her depression. Only after she had a heart-
to-heart with Percy did her depression get better.
One could only help oneself. Therapy was merely a tool, a tool that had little effect.
Luca suggested Tina see a therapist because she was on the verge of having a breakdown and needed some professional
guidance.
"I..." Tina hesitated.
"Tina, you're in very bad shape, and it'll affect your life and your work," said Luca as the same thing had happened to Nina.
Although Tina's complexion was good, she could tell that she had lost weight.
She should be taking care of her health during the new year, but she lost weight instead.
It indicated that her mental state was starting to affect her physical health.
"Okay, I'll think about it.." Tina felt a little better after telling Luca about how she felt.

However, she knew that this feeling was only temporary. Luca did not give her much advice. She mostly just played the role of a
listener.
Unlike others who would give her unsolicited advice when consoling her, Luca just suggested she see a therapist. Conversations
like this did not make her feel worse.
"You need to get better. No one knows what the future holds, but you have to take care of yourself." Luca looked at Tina with a
tingly sensation in her nose.
She was partly responsible for making Tina like this.
Luke was about to announce the opening of the laboratory for the researchers to use freely, and she was confident that she
would be able to develop an antidote with the company's facilities.
When the time came, Amur and Eler would not be controlled by the poison. They would have a chance to escape the Island of
Despair.
She did not know whether the two people would be able to start their relationship anew by then, but at this moment, she could
not let Tina crumble.
"Okay, I will." Tina looked at Luca with melancholic eyes. Although Luca and Amur looked nothing alike, sometimes, she could
see Amur in Luca.
Perhaps even though they were siblings from different parents, they had lived together for many years.
“No, not even on New Year's." Luca shook her head.
Tina smiled faintly but looked dismal. "He really is distant in front of everyone. Dr. Craw, can I ask you something?"
"What is it?" said Luca.
"The sleeping pills you gave are effective, but do they have any side effects?" Tina asked as she felt like she had become rather
irritable and grumpier lately
She used to value peace and harmony the most. She would never openly condemn someone in the office, but she had changed.
Now, she found that doing so was the most efficient way.

"Side effects? I used to take them regularly, but I never noticed any side effects. A few people who suffered from insomnia have
tested them out for me too. They didn't experience any side effects either. However, everyone's body reacts differently, so I can't
guarantee it," said Luca. She was certain that the pills would not cause any side effects, but she was a little more cautious with
Tina.
Who would believe that there were no side effects?
However, the drugs that Shanks developed were indeed miraculous.
"Despite what I said, I can guarantee that the side effects of these pills are much milder than other sleeping pills on the market,"
Luca added.
Tina smiled and tucked her fine hair behind her ears before saying, "I see..."
"Why? Do you feel sick after taking the pills?" Luca asked with concern while checking Tina's pulse with her fingers.
