03:57 am.
lee donghyuck passed away at 03:57 am. it was two days before his surgery. he was hugging his mom. earlier that night, she had decided to fall asleep in the hospital with him.
she massaged his soft hair and saw as he slowly drifted to sleep. she stayed up singing quietly to him. when she was about to go to sleep, a loud alarm woke her up right away. she noticed it was one of the machines.
she hurriedly pressed the red "help" button and watched as nurses and doctors rushed in. she stood up and watched as they tried their hardest to resurrect her son.
no matter how hard they tried, he wouldn't wake up anymore. he became an angel that night.
as soon as the news reached home, his dad and twin brother rushed to the hospital. they all cried and cried. none of them had the chance to say goodbye to him except the mom who had a conversation before he saw the light.
"mom, promise me one thing." donghyuck suddenly spoke. "yes? what is it baby?" she asked as she played with his hair. "i-if something were to happen.. i want you to give mark my diary. tell him i love him so much. tell jaemin i'll meet him again someday. tell jeno i said to take good care of them. i know the doctor said i'll recover but after renjun.. i don't know what will happen. i want you to know i love you so much mommy. i love you, i love dad and i love my brother so so so much." she tried her hardest not to cry infront of her son.
donghyuck was already crying. "i-if i do die, tell donghyoo to tell mark when he goes to school." he explained through sobs. she hummed, not trusting her words. she wanted to be strong for donghyuck. she didn't want to cry infront of him.
