Synopsis
The boy's only friend was the hallucination of his beloved cat. Concerned that he was ill, his mother admitted him to a mental hospital. After three months of treatment with medication, the hallucinations disappeared, and the boy was discharged. However, he had lost his emotional anchor and appeared even more lifeless than before. This work portrays the complex relationship between loneliness, trauma, and companionship, reconsidering the meaning of “healing” at the intersection of psychiatric treatment and emotional attachment.
