Jin walked out of the washroom confidently, pretending to be normal even when he was in pain. Jin didn't go to Yeosang's room, thinking Namjoon was still there and took a opposite turn to doctor's office. He knocked at the door and opened it, hearing a faint come in as the response. His eyes met with Yeosang's doctor and Jieun.

They seemed to be busy discussing about something important and Jin instantly felt guilty for disturbing them, "Are you guys busy? I can come back later" he said but Jieun shook her head, standing up, "No it's alright, we are done anyway. We were just talking about the surgery." She said and Jin frowned worriedly, "Everything will be fine, right?" He asked.

Jieun and the doctor looked hesitantly at each other, not knowing how to answer Jin. Jieun sighed deeply with sorrowful eyes, "The risk is high Jin, we are going to try our best. That's all we can say for now" she said briefly, ignoring the low percentage of chances of the boy's survival. Jin knew it from the start and was always hopeful that the boy will be fine.

But hearing Jieun, his hope vanished into thin air, replacing by some unknown feeling. Jin tried to not think about it and smiled forcedly, "He will be fine. I know it" he muttered, trying to convince them also himself. Jieun nodded with a small smile, "Yes. He will be fine" she said in confirmation, which still didn't help Jin.

He thanked them and turned around with trembling hands. His feet walking on his own towards the boy's room. He slowly opened the door and peeked in to see if the boy was awake and to his surprise, Yeosang was wide awake sitting on the bed, clutching his toy. Yeosang looked at Jin and gave a tired smile, "Angel" he called in a whisper from the oxygen mask.

Jin's heart clenched painfully but he still put on a bright smile, "Hey, champ. How are you feeling?" He asked walking close to the boy, who already had his hands out, ready to be held by Jin. Jin carefully put the boy on his lap, who snuggled into him and caressed his head, "I no good angel. Eberyting huwrt" the boy muttered painfully.

Jin's smile faltered for a second but he recovered it soon, "I'm sorry baby. But after tomorrow, you will be free of this evil wires. You can be free and play all you want to. Just for tonight baby, can you be strong?" he asked and Yeosang nodded wordlessly, "Otay" he whispered, closing his eyes. Jin cooed at him, "Are you sleepy? Do you want to eat something before you sleep?" He asked smiling.

Yeosang nodded, "Yesh, Sangie is hungy" he said moving away from Jin, holding his stomach. Jin patted his head smiling, "Okay. Let's get this big boy food. What do you want to eat sweetie?" He asked pressing the button at the wall. Yeosang thought making a cute face and exclaimed, "Tanpake" he said happily and Jin laughed heartily.

"It's pancake sweetheart. Let's get some pancakes and chocolate syrup, how does that sound?" Jin asked the hyped boy who nodded bouncing in his place. Jin smiled and looked up as the door opened. A nurse walked in and Jin asked her for the food the boy requested. The nurse smiled at excited Yeosang and left to get him the ordered food while Jin talked to Yeosang about things he wanted to do.

Ten minutes later, the same nurse came in pushing the tray and Yeosang sat up quickly. Jin chuckled and helped the nurse placing the food. She took out a glass of chocolate milk and Yeosang gasped, "Choto milt" he screamed happily, making grabby hands at the nurse. Jin laughed, "What do you say baby?" He asked and Yeosang yelled a thank you, impatient for the drink.

The nurse carefully handed him the glass, "What a sweet child" she said cooing at the boy. Jin thanked the lady and sat next to Yeosang, taking the mask off of the boy to feed him. Being connected to the tubes, Yeosang couldn't move his hands around so Jin helped him eat, he cut the pancakes into small pieces and handed the boy to eat, who happily munched.
