I thought of making this a short oneshot but seems like I just can't write less. Hope you enjoy the long long long ride. 😂🤣

Taehyung paced up and down the length of the corridor, sweaty hands behind his back, fidgety fingers and his eyes frequently darting towards the door with the letters "Operation Theatre" engraved on it......like every expecting father one can see in a movie.

"Come on, hyung. They will be fine," said Jungkook sitting on the metal chair outside the OT.

"No no no....you don't know. The doctors said she has complications. It can be detrimental for both the mother and the child. You don't understand," said a panicked Taehyung.

The moment he finished his sentence, a few people clad in white robes rushed into the Operation room where his wife was delivering the baby.

Being already enough tensed, Taehyung ran towards the senior doctor who was about to move into the room.

The elderly woman looked at him and passed an assuring nod at him that his wife and child would be safe. Taehyung saw a cigarette in the doctor's pocket that they would make the father smoke after the child is born safe and sound.

He returned the doctor a nervous smile before the lady walked into the room to help his wife give birth.

After what seemed ages, two junior doctors scurried out of the room abruptly, one of them clutching a bundle in his arms.
A few moments later, the senior doctor followed them. Before dashing off towards where her accomplices had gone, she seeked to talk to Taehyung.

He couldn't see the same cigarette in her pocket anymore and he visibly felt his heart pick up it's speed. Jungkook got into his feet and the doctor started heading to her chamber, the two friends at her heels.

"Mr. Kim. I have something very important to tell you," said the doctor in a serious voice once they had made it into her cabin.

"What's it, doctor?? You seem....as if things aren't right. Is Jiha okay?? And my child??" asked Taehyung trying his best not to break into tears.

"Well, Mr. Kim. You see, your wife's blood pressure suddenly shot up and seems like she can't withstand it anymore. The baby is fine but I am afraid, the mother won't be able to make it through," said the doctor matter of factly.

Taehyung felt like his whole world come crashing down onto his head. He could see all the dreams of raising a kid together, having more and more of them, watching them grow, living together for the rest of their lives, getting old and crinkly together shatter into pieces right in front of his eyes. He felt as if the safest place in his world was erased and now he lay naked to the harsh realities of life. He felt as if his whole existence was a myth at a point of time.
Wasn't his love enough?? Didn't he take proper care of his wife?? Why was life being so harsh on him?? Why did he have to lose his wife now when everything seemed to be finally going good in his life?? His son was just born. Shouldn't he be happy for that?? Then why was reality being to cruel??

So many 'why's and 'what if's rushed down his mind that he almost fainted. His heart was filled with thousands of tempestuous emotions that he abhorred to feel.

"H-how could you s-say that so easily, doctor??" asked Taehyung. He had so many questions to ask but he ended up asking something that he didn't want to accept.

"I am sorry, Mr. Kim. But it is what it is. I didn't want to keep you in the dark unnecessarily, so, I thought it was better to let you know," said the doctor with a quiver in her voice as if she was deeply affected with the sudden news as well.
