Third Person's Point Of View

"I'm scared to say this but she needs to stay here for a long time to ensure her condition is stable," the doctor's statement made Wonwoo sighed heavily. He knew that there's no use for him to regret over the past event. If he got to stop Erin from going to the studio uncovered, then this thing wouldn't ever happened.

Wonwoo thanks the doctor and takes a seat beside Erin's bed. Cold is common for its to infect every person in this world but it become uncommon when you not treat it carefully. Doctor mention that she slacked in taking pills and eating less.

"Is it because of us that you changed these much?" Wonwoo whispered softly while tucking her hair behind her ears. She slurred something in her sleep that cause Wonwoo to check her up. "Hope you're awake soon," he smiles warmly at her sleeping state.

Seungcheol's Point Of View

I could heard voices around me but I couldn't manage to open my eyes, to call everyone in that room and to even move. I feel as if I got trapped in my own dream. I try to scream but it goes nothing.

Then, I heard a voice that I surely miss for a long time. Why does it feel so long not hearing this voice? I heard her crying and sobbing, sure she misses me too right? I wanna touch her to say that I'm here to wipe her tears but I couldn't do much when the reason she cried was because of me.

"Let me wait here until he's awake. Just leave me here, Gyu. I'd appreciate that," she said.

That's the last words I heard before I fall into my abyss.

"Seungcheol? Can you hear me? I'm here, Erin's here."

I open my eyes slowly, trying to adapt with amount of lights that went through my vision. Finally, I see the white ceiling above me clearly.

"Thanks god... I'm glad you're okay," she sobbed quietly.

"Why are you here?" I asked her, my brows twitching together. She looks flustered with my question and stands up out of sudden. "I'm sorry, just to look over you and get well soon."
She bows her head and turn around but I don't give her a permission to do so. I miss her too much that I have an urge to pull her back into a warm hug.

"Seu--Seungcheol?" She called my name cluelessly. Her hands awkwardly stay at her side but slowly make it up to pat my back. "I miss you, Erin. Just stay like this for a moment," I mumbled softly.

Her body become tense after hearing my words. She pulls away from the hug and cups my face in her tiny hands. "Can I ask you something?" She asked. "Hm. Go ahead," I put a warm smile on my face just in her presence.

"Do you know what year is it now?" She hesitately let out her question. I chuckle and cup her cheeks in my hands, "Princess, we're in 2021. Why did you asked a simple question though? I thought you wanna propose me or something else."

Erin suddenly being a crybaby and hugs me tightly as if I'm going somewhere far from her reach. For now, I didn't bother to ask anything and soothe her instead. "How could you become a whole different person at one time and different person at another time?" She buried her face on my shoulder, crying and mumbling.

"Did you caught a cold again?" I frowned, knowing the fact that she might be charged because of her on-off sickness. She humms softly while playfully messing with my hair.

That night, I stay over before I get to discharge tomorrow morning. Erin already went back to her room. I stare at the starry night sky, thinking of these past few days on what could had happened since I can't remember anything. Did I got into a comatose for days or weeks? I know I involved in an accident but I still could remember the date of my accident. How could it have a long gap between that day and today?

Suddenly, his deep thinking got interrupt by the doctors' footsteps infront of his room, rushing towards somewhere he might be not interested to know.

Meanwhile, there's a chaos happening inside Erin's room. Wonwoo stood outside the room, got all anxious about his bestfriend's condition. He desperately wanted to know her sickness on that day, the first time she got attacked but Coups decided not to tell him because he was not on his right mind that time.

"Shit! Coups hyung must tell me everything right now. But, on this state of him now, he might not remember any of it. Damn it," he cursed under his breath.

"Fvck it! I must force him to gain his right mind again. It's the only way I could do for her," Wonwoo made a fast pace towards Seungcheol's room right away. He's readying himself for whatever he would hear after this because this is his choice. He chose this so he must bear with it.

Little did he know, he couldn't accept the truth when it's coming out from Seungcheol's mouth.
