April 23, 2016

Kim Taehyung, soon to be Dr Kim Taehyung, was again running late for his morning lecture of the course. He was living a perfect life, the life he wanted to live. Doing his MBBS at the most prestigious medical school, Seoul National Hospital and Medical School (SNHMS) with two people he loved the most, his best friends and school friends Park Jimin and his girlfriend, Y/n. His parents passed away before he started forming memories and he lived his life with his grandparents. When he went to high school on first day, he saw an innocent boy being bullied. This gave him flashbacks of when he was bullied at his primary school being the object of jealousy of the most popular boy. He wanted someone to step up for him but no one did. So today how couldn't he not stand for this innocent boy? Without caring for himself, he stood up for the innocent boy. And before Taehyung knew it, he and Jimin were best friends. They both did everything together, bunked school together, took punishments together, studied together and dreamt together of a future. Jimin also joined Tae in his part time work to help him earn. When Tae had to almost leave his dream behind because his grandparents could not afford the exorbitant fee required for his further studies, Jimin also decided that he will let go of this dream. Afterall it was a dream they dreamt together and would be complete only if they did it together. It was then Jimin's parents who stepped up and paid Taehyung's school fees and now Jimin's family was also Tae's family.

As Taehyung was crossing the road, an old man, with his white shirt soaked in blood, came over to him. There were some black suited people following the old man behind. The old man pleaded Tae to help him. Being an upcoming doctor, he couldn't refuse his services to the patient. Shielding the old man, he took the man to a hiding spot in the alley behind. Over there, he tried to give some first aid with whatever he had available with him and tried to assess his vitals. As he was about to call emergency, the old man stopped him. At first Tae was confused, but putting two and two together, he understood, the old man was followed by some dangerous people. Even he himself might be dangerous, Tae apprehended. The old man saw the sudden change in Tae's facial features depicting apprehensions, he spoke, "Don't be worried son, I have no weapon with me to harm you. You can leave me here, if you want. I'll completely understand if you do so."

Taehyung looked at the old man, thinking if he should run away and not get meddled in this dangerous business or if he should stay and help this poor old man. His brain suggested the former but his heart saw his own grandfather there, his responsibility to society told him to do the later. Unable to move, he decided to go with his heart like always and help the poor old man. He helped the old man escape from there to his safe place. While dropping the old man off, he found the name of the receiver of his help was Kim Taeyang. But one thing he couldn't understand was the change in sudden expression of the old man when Taehyung told his own name. It was as if Taeyang had some long lost loved one with similar name, however on receiving on reaction from the old man on questioning about it, Taehyung shrugged off his thought and didn't inquire further. When he dropped off ajhussi safely back to the place, he realised his own shirt was soaked up in ajhussi's blood. Taeyang offered one shirt to Taehyung as a thank you gift. Taehyung had to get back to rest of his classes as soon as possible so he didn't have time to go back and change his clothes, thus he took the old man's offer and dashed off back to his classes after changing into clean clothes.

But what he didn't know was that his life was about to change forever in a way he couldn't imagine.

"No matter how much we run, the past and destiny always catches up us, one way or other."

By the time Taehyung reached his college, half of the classes were over and it was break time, before the next classes start. On reaching cafeteria, he spotted Y/n, his girlfriend sitting on their usual table. As soon as she saw him, she squinted her eyes in frustration. "I can't believe you're late again! This is the last week and your attendance is almost short already. How do you exactly plan on getting clearance for exams? How are you not scared for your future? I'm more scared than you right now. Start taking classes seriously for this week at once please, Tae.", Y/n spoke. Seeing this riled up state of Y/n, Tae couldn't help let a smile escape. He knew she cared for him which is why she was so riled up. He wondered sometimes how did he get so lucky to be surrounded by so many people caring for him, more than he cared for himself.
