"Tae?" Hoseok's groggy voice came through the receiver, a soft groan leaving Taehyung's lips from the time difference. "I'm so sorry to wake you, Hoseok. I- I have a serious request though and I need it to be fulfilled," Taehyung stated firmly, watching the door to make sure Jungkook wouldn't hear him. Hoseok was silent for a second before the soft sound of someone sitting up calmly reached Taehyung's ears. "What's the favor?" Hoseok asked seriously, suddenly sounding more alert as Taehyung smiled softly at the ground. He had such great friends and he regret that he wouldn't be able to see them again with the doctor's prognosis.

"I need you to be here for Jungkook. I'll use my father's money to pay for your travels but if something like what happened today transpires again... I don't think Jungkook can handle it," Taehyung admitted softly, glancing at the door once more before turning his full attention toward the conversation again. Hoseok was silent once more as Taehyung heard a soft voice asking what had happened that day in the background. "What happened, Tae?" Hoseok finally asked, afraid of the answer he'd obtain as he waited with bated breath. Taehyung laughed nonchalantly, trying to play off the severity of the incident. "All I did was collapse. Although, Jungkook made a big deal about it," Taehyung blatantly lied, laughing as if it were just any other day. "Why'd he make such a big deal about it though if all you did was collapse?" Yoongi's voice rang through the receiver and Taehyung finally realized he was on speaker.

Jungkook answered Jimin's call, trying not to laugh at the frantic way Jimin greeted him over the phone. "Who the fuck do I have to kill?! Who hurt you? What happened?" Jimin asked rapid-fire inquiries in a voice that was far too demanding, ready to kill someone himself. Jungkook finally let a small chuckle slip as he realized how he must have sounded to Jimin when he left that voicemail. "I'm sorry you had to wake up to that," Jungkook started with an apology, scratching the back of his head in embarrassment. "I- It's that... It's just that I thought I lost Taehyung," Jungkook squeezed the sentence out in a rushed breath, trying not to prolong the reason he seemed so hysterical earlier. Jimin was silent for a moment before he finally spoke in a more reasonable tone. "How did you think you almost lost him?" Jimin asked curiously, concerned for his best friend's mental well-being.

Jungkook sniffled softly, trying not to cry as he recounted the events from earlier today to Jimin. "Taehyung and I were sitting down to breakfast. He was having extreme difficulty standing to his feet but I thought that he may have been sore from the night before..." Jungkook rushed past that last tidbit of information to keep from disgusting Jimin but it was too late. Jimin had heard clearly enough and made a sound of disgust before Jungkook could continue. "Well, sorry for sharing that... But it pertains to him pushing himself too hard... I had just grabbed our breakfast and was heading toward the table and Taehyung when he stared down at his hand. I noticed his nose was bleeding but before I could say anything, he crashed into the dresser behind him. I rushed to see if he'd hit his head or if he was okay while I called for an ambulance... He- He flat-lined on the way to the hospital, Jimin," Jungkook choked out with intense emotion, tears falling once again as he tried desperately to calm himself. "They tried to revive him three times! They were going to pronounce him dead when the adrenaline shot and the defibrillator finally shocked him into existence again," Jungkook cried out loudly, his emotions taking full rein once again and almost making him incoherent once more.
