Saudade [Choi Yeonjun]

56

3rd Person's POV

Taeyong fiddled with his bracelet as he anxiously waited for the doctor, hoping everything would be fine. 

He looked at the multicolored bracelet that hung off his wrist a smile making its way to his lips reminiscing how Y/n had made this on her birthday. He also remembered telling her that he should be the one giving her gifts on her birthday and not the other way round.

"Lee y/n the girl who always gives but doesn't take." Taeyong thought to himself. 

And then the door to the ICU opens and out walks the doctor with a complex expression on his face. 

"Is she okay?" He asks, his heart pounding in anticipation. 

"She's out of danger." The doctor says with a kind smile. "But she'll be here for a while because she can't breathe on her own with her broken rib." 

"Thank heavevns." Taeyong sighed in relief.

"Miss Y/n had almost slipped into a coma because of all the blood loss but she'll be fine. Stay strong." The doctor says patting Taeyong's shoulder leaving him with mixed feeling as he sank down back into his seat.

Pulling out his phone and sending a text to Taehyun, He walks towards the two big doors and pushes it open bowing to the nurses who were cleaning up. Taeyong walked to the hospital bed and sat down on a stool as he gazed at his little sister who now had tubes running in and out of her. 

"Why did fate have to be so cruel to us?" He whispers stroking her hand with glossy eyes. "I wasn't even there to take care of you but you remained strong." Taeyong says his throat clogged with emotion. "I'm the worst brother aren't I?" 

Meanwhile the others who were just stood outside felt guilty watching the man having a moment with his sibling but at the same time it pained them.

"He's as upset as us." Beomgyu said with a heavy sigh. "Yeah." everyone hums and agrees turning around to wait till the two sibling were done. 

Not long after the door opened Taeyong walked out with a solemn expression. His eyes landed on the six feeling slightly surprised. 

"The doctor said she's out of danger." He says putting on his strong facade. "She has a broken rib so she'll be here for a while." 

Yeonjun clenched his fists behind his back the guilt of not being able to save the said girl filling his mind. 

And this was the second time. The first being when her bullying went too far but he still couldn't save her in time. And even when she got shot instead of Soobin.

All those times he couldn't save her even though he promised. 

Yeonjun's fist collided with the wall startling everyone. 

"Hyung-" Soobin started but Yeonjun stormed off down the busy hallway of the hospital.

"Let him be. He'll cool down soon enough go talk to him then." Taehyun says already used the eldest loosing his temper and leaving so as to not burst on anyone.

"Hey uh," Taeyong said now all their eyes on him as he awkwardly rubbed his nape. "I er, wasn't with y/n for a long time so could you tell me what she's like?" He asked politely. 

Soobin laughed quietly. "I don't think she has changed a lot. She's still a child behind the strong mask she puts on." Taeyong's lips curved into a small smile on hearing this.

"It must be so hard for her without anyone always running from her own father, with nobody to trust." He says his smile now a frown. "That's how she grew so strong. Even if someone tries to push her down she remains unshaken." Chaeyoung speaks making everyone nod in agreement.

And just like that, the six sat until evening in y/n's ward laughing at every memory that was shared of the girl they all had a soft spot for in their heart. 

Oh what an amazing present y/n is going to get once she wakes up to see her brother whom she waited her whole life was staying for good. 

Maybe the sun was finally starting to push through the rain clouds.
